Phantoms and ghosts lie in wait.
God only knows their intent.

Beneath a veil of secrecy and disguise
lurks a volcano waiting to vent.
Beware the ides of March they say,
but even more so,
the eyes of disguise.
All is not what it seems.
But what it is, may take
a lifetime to discover.
Do you have that much time
to give?
Some things are better left buried
deep within the bowels of the earth.
This may be one of those things.

Phantoms and ghosts lie in wait.
God only knows their intent.

Sounds like your friend would be wise to heed your warning!

Intriging write Kacy.  I dunno, I can think of a ghost or two I wouldn't mind revisiting.

I'd laugh at your reply Duncan if it weren't true that I have a ghost I'd like to revisit.

Very Good writing Kacy.

Lee, thanks!
Susan? Since you only live once, I think a second visitation is worth the risk.
