Election Collection Day

Is it zombie or is it a ghost?  
All it can do is hear it boast.
Its burning-red tie,
Yet it contrasts with the cold dark eyes.
 
It eats and it eats, and eat it does,
Seems so big and so strong
Hair flowing back in shades of gray
This creature it moans and groans so long.
Is it hungry or singing a song?
 
And out pours the spew of vile acidic liquid.
From the mouth as it mutters.
such a horrific sight as it crawls towards me.
I shutter...shutter....shutter.
Fear as bolted down my spine!
 
Paralyzed!
 
Grimy hands reach for my neck
Suffocation without regret.
Out comes the vile flow it's mouth bestows.
Melting my skin and bones
Whats left of me may you so ask?
 
A pile of gold instead on the ground.
24 Karat, taken hold of with my curse bound.
This monster it hordes me into its cave.
Locked up and helpless without any say.
Sparkling with light locked away.
 
So watch out next election day.
That is when this mysterious being will play.
He will grab you by the throat.
Give his soul-stealing stare!
Take what is yours without any care!
Only then will you be under is ensnare.
 
Correction: I had missed copying and pasting the first line to my writing. sorry guys.  
 
Note: This does not pertain to any one political figure, but to those who are greedy in general that my mind feels are very sinister. I am always up to critique so shoot me! :)
