The ghastly ghost strikes again

I launch myself into a cup of joe,
Knowing for well, I had nowhere to go.
Looking into it gave me a fright,
For Looking up to me, Was a ghost;
The rudest of ghosts,
The one that goes bum in the night.

It's not what I'd envisaged,
Or what I wanted to see,
A scary old ghost looking up at me.
Expecially while I'm sipping,
My cup of coffee.

Confusion rained as though,
Insanity ranged supreme.
But this wasn't a dream,
My muscles shook as I tried to scream.

As my mind became full of fright,
I merged with the ghost.
The rudest of ghosts,
The one that goes bum in the night.
