A Scary Halloween Poem

 


This year, a Halloween surprise


to shock the unsuspecting eyes—


me suited in my eerie and scariest


costume disguise. Through no


thoughtful plan of mine, wrinkle


upon wrinkle, spotted blotches


and all, line after rutted line,


the hunched over old geezer I


have unwittingly become. Warn


your children all, give the passing


years their deteriorating time and


free of charge, this natural costume


of disturbing horror will suite you


too just fine. Boo, yourself. Be gone


you old coot! The trick has been


done. No treat for you.
