Walking through the garden of dead
I saw things I’ve never seen
Large ancient chapel looking dread
Leaning over where grasses once green
In front of its door was a gloomy rosewood
Neatly inscribed with “THOU SHALL NOT’
Grudging the entrance in an inimical mood
So I turn to the garden where roses spring forth
Only to witness empty graves and tombstone -
Nesting runaway-ghost’s broken bones

Sitting inside the chapel’s prayer bench
Are thousands upon thousands of bookworm - looking wrench
Under their tiny glasses and sleeping caps, they
Noisily serving themselves with bible stories as they prey
Giggle, wiggle and wriggle they move from verse to verse
As their bookworm tails began to gleam into universe
Of burning candles, saddle up the dark chapel
