Halloween Night

Boo!

I saw the blood and guts


the ghoulish masks


they put on to speak,


the howls


the harrowing cries


for revenge.


A Satan


spat his invenctive


in my face.


I heard the pleas


of the victims


and yes,


the dead.


So I gladly turned off the news--


for a kid with a monster's head.
