A Halloween Fable

It's halloween I'm babysitting, little horrors crawl from their cradles I'm not a happy chaperone, these kids are becoming quiet unstable Frankenstein's unscrewed some bolt, his head's hanging by a cable Dracula drank five Bloody Marys, now he's talking complete babel Wolf-boy's climbing walls, I nailed his paws rendering him incapable Wicked witch's making potions, with soiled diapers and sugar maple The crazed Mummy's eating bandaids, he looks even more disabled Evil twins are slashing each other's faces, I'm running out of staples Skinny skeleton kid's choking to death, stuffing his face with bagels The exorcist cannot stay still, keeps spinning her head on the table Johnny's home! chopping doors, I'm outta here my heart's not able Halloween Monorhyme Contest Poetry Contest Sponsored by: Caren Krutsinger 10/30/2021
