KNIGHTMARE QUEST ON MEDIEVAL ALL HALLOWS EVE

Call this shining knight crazy…
Tho I’ll admit for a minute there, ‘twas kind of hazy.
But I just had a hunch
Methinks ‘twas the eerie twin knights and their cohort bunch
That petitioned Lionheart for a Knight’s Quest that sounded, well… crazy.

I knew right away something wasn’t right.
Something haunting the very air, made it uptight
Isn’t it great the quick discernment we shining knights
At our fingertips possess,
To tell the right from, well… tell it like it is, frights.
But aren’t we all challenged with a tiny bit of abstractness?
So let’s right here and now get this straight,
Shining knights ain’t afraid of no ghosts…

So anyway, be-bopping down the road…
Uh, ahem…a-Questing down the road
In search of fair maiden with spirits possessed
With whom the Motley Crew seemed quite obsessed.
But I am the royally shining knight, “Ghost buster”
Wielding all the might Excalibur can muster.

Methinks a strange sensation
Came prickling up mine knightly spine
With unholy abomination.
‘Twas really quite royally disconcerting,
This ghastly spirit that came creeping,
This creepy green presence most unnerving.
