Pumpkin Moon

Alone in a field At night, His chance to see spirits In the light of the moon, You can see them scattered Like gourds in the grass, At harvest time It's old legends, whispers, Nonsense in books Go with them They'll take you through time So he went to escape The pains of life Needing that energy So desperation unlocked This sorcery in the field They were drawn to him But he found out The world punishes those who cower Now he's among them Moon after moon Walking in the cold forever A universe with no mercy Waiting to prey On someone else Weakness needs weakness And is sentenced to find it
