A Toast to the Haunted

A toast to the haunted.

I toast the writers and the painters, the artists and the players,

A drink to the builders and shapers, the workers and architects,

A song for the insomniacs, the maniacs, the crazies and lazies,

A speech to the dancers and singers and lovers and killers,

I honor the lonely thinkers and sleepless dreamers,

I appreciate those who have been driven by passion,

I feel for those who were lost in their heads,

But when the day is done and the battle is fought,

All that’s left is the blood you have bled.

A toast to the haunted,

The damned and the chasers, the bards and the racers,

The flaming minds and boastful beasts.

But what is to boast when each of your thoughts,

Are all you have left for your feast?
