A MODERN FRIGHT
A modern fright
must be polite,
and never cause a wound.
A modern boo
must be thought through,
and always auto-tuned.
A modern bat
should not attack
without a horror song.
A modern ghoul
would look a fool
without some make-up on.
A modern bone
must have its phone
when it lies on the ground.
A modern snake
demands milkshakes
before it slithers round.
A new elf sent
will carry scent
in case it passes gas.
A modern witch
has no broomstick,
but travels in first class.
A modern spook
should wear a suit
and have a lot of charm.
A modern scare
should never dare
in case it comes to harm.
A modern grave
should have a shave,
and always look pristine.
A modern child
should still run wild
because it’s Halloween!!
