Welcome to the Dark Side

Heya,
 This is an experimental site to help me work through some writer's block, kick myself in the butt and work seriously on my writing.  Feedback from other blog writers/readers would be sooo appreciated.
Thanks...


Voo Doo Queen


On St. John's Eve
 when the river mists rise
the showboat's ghost 
 rolls the dice snake eyes.

On St. John's Eve
 in the city of the dead
it's a Voodoo Hoodoo
that the living dread.

Hellstone gates, a whisper light
 a stolen love charm - a spell in the night
a stand of fallen angel's hair
 let the faint of heart beware
cross your heart and say your prayers
 yeah cross your heart and say your prayers.

Hoo Doo Voo Doo Zombie
 Hoo Doo Voo Doo Queen
Marie Laveau the Voo Doo Queen
 She'll steal your soul 
  She'll haunt your dreams
Hoo Doo Voo Doo Zombie

And if you dare to walk the quarter streets
 dare to tread on St. John's Eve
you'll see the witch fires of Congo Square
 and feel the Gris Gris in the air
cross yourself and say your prayers
 yeah cross your heart and say your prayers.

Hoo Doo Voo Doo zombie
  Hoo Doo Voo Doo Queen
Marie Laveau the Voo Doo Queen
 she'll steal your soul 
she'll haunt your dreams
 Hoo Doo Voo Doo zombie...
