Trick Or Treat - Nightmare Comedy

In my armchair By the fire I drifted off to sleep Down and down and down I fell Into a well so deep While outside the shadows Of the night began to creep Along the ground Among the leaves That swirled and twirled and leaped Then - suddenly I was awakened By a rap tapping on my door And woke up so bewildered In a place I had never been before As monsters seeped Out through the cracks Across the hardwood floor I screamed and screamed Until I lost my voice - And then I Screamed some more I watched in horror From the ceiling Where from a rope I hung From a chandelier Above their jagged teeth And drooling tongues Then I saw one slither Up the stairs And through the rungs And when he finally Grabbed me I felt my last breath Leave my lungs. I saw myself Below me When the monster Threw me to the floor Where upon They all joined in To eat a feast Of human smorgasbord On legs and arms and torso They gorged and gorged and gorged Leaving just my head Insanely grinning Like a pumpkin gourd An then I heard a rap a tap A rap a tapping at the door And woke up screaming In a daze Just where I was before And through the window I could see them Behind those faces That they wore Monsters - screaming! Trick or treat It’s Halloween once more Happy Halloween! Watch out for the ghosts and goblins.
