This is a submission for Kevin’s No Theme Thursday.

With candles flickering in dead of night
A witch conjures spells in the dark, dim light
Whispered incantations, fright she weaves
Making enemies who lurk succumb to dreams
When foes lay down, nightmares they’ll have
Antagonizing cowards with her malevolent laugh
Drifting to realms of unspeakable things
Monsters, beasts, and demons with wings
Teaching a sinister lesson, once and for all
Don’t mess with a witch who has the gall
To call upon spirits to torment your heart
Now ask for forgiveness, or be torn apart
Upon midnight hour, with moon’s eerie glow
Awakening to terrors that haunt them so
Smoke rises forth, as she begins once again
Saying final verses, powerful ones to condemn:
“Leave this place, wretch, be gone for good!
Banish you from here, for you ruin the mood.”
©️ Laura Bennett
Have you ever sent someone a nightmare?

Fantastic last line, Laura! The whole thing’s great, ominous yet light somehow, but I’m so so fond of cheeky wrap ups!

Just avoiding the crossfire, giving everything W I D E berth and plenty of room to not get hit by friendly fire.
