when we climbed to the peak

we planted a flag

but the moment we had

I felt bad

and then night came

so we got in our sleeping bags

when someone told a story

about something dead and gory



there was heat

from the fire

but i still froze

when i saw the ghost   



there was heat

from the fire

but i still froze

when i saw the ghost 



i told the gang

we weren't welcome

the ghost made that clear

so we stepped back

but it was drawing near

and it lunged for our throats

so we packed our things, made tracks

undid our footprints

even furled our flag



and we were gone

but what was on

the mountain top? 



and we were gone

but what was on

the mountain top? 



Sweet nothing

I made it up

So we'd make it down

with no territorial claim  



on Ghost Mountain
