Beware of the Brain Eaters

Beware of the Brain-eaters, the Logic-disbelievers, the Beat-clippers.
They come on Halloween  to thumb their noses at the sky dippers.
Big Dipper sends eighteen master witches to give them a star.
Little Dipper distances himself, hiding his end rays in Zeniths black jar.

Brain-eaters will go after your dendrite fields and steal the connectors.
Logic-disbelievers will annihilate red cells and change them to vectors.
Beat-clippers will hunt you,  jump on your head and take you down.
You will laugh yourself into oblivion and maybe even soil your gown.

So, beware children, beware I tell you now.
The weird ones are out there, and I tell you good and how.
They will catch you and stomp you and take bites out of your skin.
So, run while you can; to stand still would be a real sin.
