Inhabiting The Dark Corners Of Our Mind: 5 Poems

Every man who went in would be cursed
and their fate turned out for the worst
but small sweet Kathleen knew he had to be nursed
and rough Billy came out that door with both feet first!

---

While cultivating her roses so complete with red
the young apprentice received a shock that he would dread
and to the miserable baroness this guilt had led
when another gardener had been buried with the dead!

---

Through this door he made a one way trip
and in Room 34 encountered a fatal slip.
A conspiracy tightened up any loose lip
as no one in this hotel received a tip!

---

One day a festive circus rolled into town.
Next week their morgue brought everyone down
and we're not exactly nosy but it's hard to keep score
on all the interesting people who live next door!

---

She woke up today to find a scented pillow
pressed down on her face like a weeping willow
as the despicable Aunt Millie could no longer breathe
giving everyone a much needed and now silent reprieve!
