Scarier Than Fiction

I think it speaks for itself.

 

Give me a black cat

Crossing my path

Over a dirty politician

Crossing his constituents.

 

Give me a rabid bat

Hanging above my door

Over a rabid psychopath

Hanging in the crowds.

 

Give me a ghastly ghost

Haunting me in my house

Over a ghastly gunman

Hunting children at school.

 

Halloween is not so scary

When you compare it to

The real world we see everyday.

True but there has been
things ghastly that are demonic
so I want no evil thing in my home
they can harm just as well it has happened
to me depends on how you look at it.




I love the candy and the pumpkins and pumpkin pie
and the crisp weather and beautiful changing of the leafs
Halloween isn't my favorite time of that year I have seen evil
stair me in the face so what are you talking about I have scared
weirdo's off in my Neighborhood I am very protective I am not mean
but I can sense if someone is bad news.



But thank you for sharing and for
stopping by my page and for your kind comments.

ain't it the truth though...you hit the nail on the head with this one Dale..the real world is much scarier than fiction to be sure...very deadly and creepy is the every day scene.. neat write

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

It most certainly is… I fringe more at the news than I do a scary movie.

[Fran Marie]

me too.. now it's Ebola and ISIS and God only knows what's next

[Lyn Anderson]

Wow. Powerful as it is simple and true. Story book and make believe aren't nearly so scary as reality

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

That is right cause make believe only hurts while imagining it, and reality bites for real.

[Rossen]

A sad commentary, but far too true. Great perspective Dale.

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Thank you sir… unfortunately it is all too true.

[InspiredRain]

Very nice, It's a good comparison for those who think the bumps in the night are worse than who we are

[The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)]

Thank you so much.

[Renée]

High five on this one, Little Bro ! Very creative reminder of what scary truly is !

Thanks big sis… it is true that the things we should be scared of we never think about.
