HALLOWEENTIME

wrap your big black bat wings around the trick-or-treat golly! lolly

and look inside the ancient amber sweet-on-a-stick

here's the grinning skeleton billy boy

dancing his morbid jiggle jig

his funny bone vibrating verily

his ghost 2012 warts away

and the beautiful underbelly of the world grumbles

and the pumpkin seeds shiver

waiting to erupt orange faces

shouting of a once-common conscious community

and here's the black fat mat cat

the owl says hoo are you
