The Ferryman
A fluid flow.
 
 A death like scent.
 
 A ride so slow,
 
 and It only cost a cent.
 
 A shadow,
 
 a monster,
 
 a ghoul in disguise.
 
 Meet the ferryman,
 
 with deep hollow eyes.
 
 Black and gloom,
 
 there is no moon,
 
 underneath this shadowed loom.
 
 Where dark will live
 
 to tell its lies,
 
 and the man will listen
 
 with no eyes.
 
 Meet the ferryman,
 
 who rows this boat.
 
 Who rides the souls
 
 that lost their coat.
 
 Stuck like glue
 
 in this place.
 
 Such a shallow mind
 
 of disgrace.
 
 Bribe the ferryman
 
 with your penny,
 
 and learn your soul
 
 was worth the money.
 
 A hell of steam
 
 and glistening glare.
 
 A deal of work
 
 with this slaves own lair.
 
 Meet the ferryman
 
 my lonely friend.
 
 For I am afraid this is
 
 THE END.
