The Nightmare After Christmas
A Prelude to Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas
by Jack_Skellington182

Twas Not long ago since our story first began.
In this Town of Halloween Land.
Where Jack stopped Oogies Treacherous planes,
and his love for Sally first began
yet this did not stop Jack from being tired of Halloween Land.
He still found it quite boring and bland.

Jack missed the new feeling of Christmas He could not grasp,
“But WAIT there is more than one door” Jack said with a gasp.
Jack got up and started to walk towards the woods.
Where he would walk all day and all night
until he would get to the circle of trees
that would take him out of his hatred of Halloween.

He took a good look around at all the doors
and tried to pick one that he adored.
He stepped inside one shaped like an Egg
walked around to only see a statue of the one and only Easter Bunny
that was no Mistake.
“Where do I know his face”
said Jack feeling disgraced.
I have no choice but to find out about this ruler they call the Ester (a-steer) Bunny
so Jack went off only to find something funny.
A little bunny
sitting on a throne
only to see Jack
and jump into a hole,
and that’s when Jack remembered the cowered
when Lock Shock and Barrel almost got fired
for getting not Sandy
but none other than the Easter bunny.
“I’m sorry if you have been scared,
I’ll leave this Holiday as quick as A heir”
and Jack being true to his word left that holiday
and never returned.

Out of the tree Jack stepped
feeling glade nothing was wrecked.
Yet he still felt sad.
Looking for another door quick
he stepped into one that looked like a fat bird’s foot.
Down he fell downwards he spiraled towards what looked like sand
until he landed in St. Patrick’s land.
This Place was so green he could not see straight
and he thought to him self this will not be great
he tried to get back to Halloween
but couldn’t see and opened the door to Thanksgiving.

He found himself face down in the sand
of a land he did not understand.
He got up and looked around
and saw people with funny hats and buckles on.
One grabbed a gun
and that’s when Jack decided to run.
Up on the hill he ran and opened up a door that was pink,
and looked rather streaked.

He fell this time landing on his feet
and started to walk only to see red and Pink.
He looked past the hearts and cards.
And started to see little baby’s with what else on their chest but a tiny little heart.
And then he saw these babies have had weapons.
That’s when Jack said to him in a tone that was mean
“by god this is just like Halloween"
and that’s when Jack started to remembered
That he was the king of Halloween
He could make it scarier just as he foreseen
that he could still go back to his home
and forget about all these places that he roamed
he ran back to the trees past the sea or pink
and looked at all the door’s but couldn’t believe what he was seeing.
There was no Halloween door
only one shaped like a tree he stepped in side
and found it to be the last thing he wanted to see.

Jack was in Christmas land
there was no doubt about it.
Jack ran and ran but could not find the door
and at that moment he felt very poor.
He started to give up
as he rest his head back in the snow
only to look up and see a glowing little nose.
He noticed it was Zero
and without a hello he asked “Zero can you help me find my way home”
and with a bark
Zero guided Jacks way home in the dark.
Jack was now at the circle of trees
and walked back in to his beloved town of Halloween
where he would live in peace with out a tear in his eye.
At least until another holiday arrived.

The Path...
By: Fallenlight262


The path I take is that a joke?
All I see is people to porvoke.
I sleep, I eat, I try to live a life,
but there is something in my way, this horrible knife.

The knife I hold, it's closing in,
for all this will soon begin.
I stand there stunned to find with glee,
a mere buzzing sound, more like a bee.

The bee it flys, with gentle grace,
looking for something, like a certain base.
There it shall hide, away from it's fears,
but all that's left, is I in tears.

The tears the fall, run down my cheek,
is the emotion of sadness, which is very uniqe.
It runs down far, with the other emotions,
if these combine, they might lead to explosions.

The explosions, of the creation of war,
there are people dying, but what for?
They fight, and the fight, but to see no ending,
you only see that forces are bending.

The bending of forces, is that necessary?
For christ sakes! I think there's enough to carry.
These forces are falling, more like a shower,
but all they seek is mere power.

The power of wisdom is hard to hold,
with the choices that come to fold.
You see this wisdom, throughout your day,
others see it as shades of gray.

The gray of the sky, the way in front,
if you walk in front of it is a horrible stunt.
You might not see it, you may I can't deny,
but all you may do, is probably cry.

The cry of victory, could this be true?
No, no it isn't, for now I feel blue.
I may be low, down in the dumps,
it now gets cold, and I have goose bumps.

These bumps, it's freezing like ice,
it feels like I'm dying, which means no dice.
I look down, and it's like a flood,
my wrist begins to rise, of pure blood.

The blood, it's darking then my heart,
how did this happen? I don't even know where to start.
I turn to see what led me to this wrath,
it was the knife, it made me go this path.

The path, I have finally chose,
Did I choose right? I now hold a rose.
I try to hold it high, under the suns shine,
the rose changed to black, could this be a sign?

The sign of failure has fallen upon,
I only wonder on who has really won.
The champion, the victor, it is not me,
the only living thing left is that poor little bee.

The bee, it flys, away from it all,
I only hope that it will not even fall.
Bu when that time comes, it will surely die,
I won't even get to say the chance good-bye.

The good-bye, too late for me to say,
my friends, my family, they look so gray.
The cry, they weep, for I am gone,
they all walk away, for I was only a pawn.

The pawn, which was part of their game,
I wonder if they only felt the same.
I lay there upon the ground, gone from everything I had,
but I wonder, am I really glad?
i'm gonna have to agree with billy, this competition is changing to DISNEY ONLY poetry so write a knew one and i'll still let you in.
