    Cerberus sleeps on All Hallows Eve

    Allowing Hades’ cursed their torments to leave.

    They walk among the living, souls without hope,

    Extending dead fingers your spirit to grope.

    So that chill that you feel when the winds nips your skin

    Could be a cadaver trying to get in.

    Vermin crept within the rotted walls,

                Scratching . . .

                Scratching . . .

                Scratching . . .

     

    Foulness seeped ‘twixt foundation stones,

                Dripping . . .

    Dripping . . .

    Dripping . . .

     

    A hungry thing shambled out from shadow,

                Breathing . . .

                Breathing . . .

                Breathing . . .

     

    The young man fell to the reeking floor,

                Screaming . . .

                Screaming . . .

                Screaming . . .

     

    Until silence came to the feeding room.

    At last the time has come

    For tricks or treats and a little fun,

    We shall laugh and play at being dead

    And forget awhile that worms will be fed,

    By you and I

    Once we too are dead.

    A deal with the devil poor Faustus wrought

    For all of the knowledge and power he sought.

     

    A score and four the bargain did last

    While Lucifer waited for his final repast.

     

    In the end the good doctor turned his back on salvation

    And Mephastophilis escorted him to eternal damnation.

    Remember this you arrogant mortals, that we are the Old Ones who built all the portals

    Which can let us roam throughout your nights, and bring with us a darkness to defeat all your lights.

     

    So, believe if you must in logic and science, but know in your dreams it’s a hollow defiance. 

     

    For your pride and your hubris come with a cost,

    You are quite chewy and taste good with sauce.

    Certain we must be of aliens

    from far beyond the atmospheric sea,

    I asked a favor once of visitor from above,

    Purple People Eater please don't eat me,

    To which he laughed and replied,

    I wouldn't eat you,

    Because you're so tough.

     Ancestor worship is common among many people throughout the world, it is founded on the belief that the dead live on and are able to influence the later generation.
