The Haunted Mansion Pt. 3 - My false teeth were chattering (NehpetsEnal) (3)
The Haunted Mansion Part Three (3) - My false teeth were chattering
The noise was deafening, my ears were aching
The ambulance raced off, with lights flashing, and alarm bells ringing
Sounded like a screeching bat, exiting a cave
As these wingless rodents, charged toward a rave
My head flopped, with false teeth chattering
They were soon speeding through the graveyard
Crash bang wallop, they'd run over the Bard
They showed no compassion, or concern about where the sound emanated from
Only laughter ensued, don't worry it's probably just another peeping Tom
The ambulances tyre tread had surely marked his card
Whoever it was that said, once you're dead your dead, didn't know the Bard
He was up and running with one shake of his skinned head
Voices in the ambulance called out, let's get stoned
And in a few moments, they were discharging the methadone
Soon they were tripping, and flying to mars on my bed
The Bard was literally stripped to the bone
He'd called in the Calvary, using a funny tone
Like a fairground Whack-A-Mole, the zombies pop up in waves
The rotting flesh and bone, danced in joy upon their graves
It was the first-time in years they'd not been alone
It was going to be some party
Even the stoic Bard was getting hearty
I wasn't sure of my destiny, hot blood still flowed from my wound
But in the ambulance, I was still cocooned
However, that soon changed, following a charge from the eyeless Calvary
The Bard was back in charge, and boldly rode the remains of a cart horse
He tried to speak, but his throat was hoarse
With boney hands he undid the clasps, and at last I moved freely
He understood that I was no longer the enemy
There was no reason for him to give chase
For when I sat up, my empty carcass with drooping head, still lay flat upon the bed
Those narcotic paramedics had drained my last drop of red, and my mortal body now lay dead
As my distraught husband shouted, what have you done to my wife
I laughed so much, I nearly cried, it was the happiest day of my life
They had set me free from the torture of his bed
At last the little girl in me, was free to dance her heart away
Upon this earth you can stay, and for my soul you may pray
But in the haunted mansion I will happily remain, and divorce my mortal life
For there's not much worse than being your wife
The worst you can do, is to drag my empty carcass away
Foot Note: This is probably the first and last eight-stanza limerick I'll ever write.
I am yet to start the concluding poem/part, I would welcome a challenge and would happily write an ending in any form you choose.
Come on you've got one week, I'll write a different ending for each form you suggest, then merge and submit them as one, it might drive @MystreMyna nuts, but as this may be our last challenge, I'm sure she'll see her way to let it pass her superhuman scrutiny.
