TERROR CASTLE

Jacqueline heard the music, while sitting on her windowsill.
She grabbed her purse and went with will.
To the fair she did go.
Walking round to and fro.
Looking for a ride that was open.
And then, as if the words were spoken.
The Terror Castle was before her eyes.
What a challenge, what a surprise.
'I'll go in,'� she bravely said.
But she did not know she would end up dead.
She didn't see the trapdoor below.
She started to fall, but fell so slow.
And when she awoke from her daze.
Five staring, green faces, she wasn't amazed.
'Just another trick,'� she boldly said.
But then she noticed they weren't just heads.
They had arm and legs as well.
Then her fear began to swell.
They reached to her with open arms.
Chanting her name as if singing a psalm.
Jacqueline was never heard of again.
Her fate was sealed in a black cold den.
