Below is his winning poem and link to it. Feel free to visit with him and leave comments.

The House Waits

The glamour is fading - not a minor concern.

The spires stand rigid and tight. Porch

cushions can't disguise they're a

mound of dead flies. The scent

of pie is too spoiled to lure.

The House down the lane

is trying so hard to

draw the wary and

keep the scary

inside.

Within

is a hunger

for innocence and

terror. The spirits all

restless and cursed. So angry

at life and the living they abhor,

eating souls is what quenches their thirst.

The House cannot hunt, it must patiently wait.

For a choice and a Cross to be kissed. And a foot to be

placed on the creaky front step that it has never been able to fix.
