Midnight Music Class

Midnight Music Class

After school
in the music room I eat.
After school
with a piano, other door
opens, to another room
that beckons me closer to play.
After school.

The other students
wait quietly, day ends…
moon rises up.

At midnight, the ghouls on the walls
turn from stone to life.
And play with moonlight like its
studio night. I long, for your embrace
Under the shining moonlight.
The werewolf howls for you and me.
The guillotine, on the scaffold,
beckons for you and me.

After school
in the music room I eat.
After school
with a piano, other door
opens, to another room
that beckons me closer to play.
After school.

And as I play song
of ghouls and goblins, I wait
for closing moonlight.

For you and me, like monsters at night,
the humans despise us because we’re different.
But lets be different together. And cuddle under a gallows tree.
