On Halloween the sky was scarred The full moon peered, a piercing shard, Behind a hole, the eye of night, Above the smell of death and fright, Along a bone laced boulevard.
As corpses crept from crypts unbarred, The flames, they crawled, with pale regard, On roasting rot – a sanguine sight... On Halloween.
The bones, they blanched within the yard, Again to have their evening marred By ghouls and fiends who rip and bite With claws and fangs which drip delight While gorging flesh, so slightly charred... On Halloween.
