Ghoul School

 

Wee vampire failed his test at ghoul school

And jumped up and down yelling, I’m not a fool

Then as his fangs had started to drool

He yelled out again, I’m quitting school

 

He howled and yowled like a crazy wolfhound

Then kicked over a tomb burial site mound

 

The silence was deafening as the tomb opened wide

Scarred hands on ravaged arms reach out from inside

Dead eyes hung over the tombs open ledge

Accompanied by an odor, right on the foul edge

 

A black spirit snake coiled out round his feet

Opening its’ mouth, with an aim there to eat

Then a ravaged hand grasped round his neck

And poor wee vampire turned into a wreck

 

Get back in cruel school, you damn little fool

Came from the remains of the mouth of the ghoul

That shock and awe made him hustle his a*s

And he’s since graduated at the top of his class

Soooo...you advocate mishandling of students in our nation's schools? That was frowned upon back in my day, but, I suppose, whatever it takes...

Yep, that's what math teacher, Inez Neal, did to me in eighth grade. Scared the crap out of me and forced me to make good grades. With this little terror-tale, you've taught us that not only is it cool to be ghoul, but it's also great to be seized by a snake.

Well the ghouls weren't all bad. They realised the importance of education to improve one's standing in life (or flat lining in death). Another goodie from your Halloweeny bag of treats. Back to school to learn.
