Colleen has given us the words Haunt and Spell for this week’s challenge. Remember, you can only use synonyms to write your poetry! I used Spirit and Incantation. 🙂

A
Spirit
Dwells here
Ever present
Amongst the living
Bewitching in its charm
It catches one off their guard
And terrifies the weakest soul
With an incantation, it takes you
Now you only exist to plague this Earth

“Dorinda. . .
your offering was neat,
despite the cheat.
Or perhaps even
because of it?
Regardless, it tasted sweet!”
