Black Eyes- Halloween
October 31s it's Halloween,
expect strange things to be seen,
opening door everyone heard my cries,
two pale skinned children, with BLACK EYES,
can we use your toilet one said,
I couldn't speak, full of dread,
couldn't believe what I was seeing,
just wanted to run, felt like fleeing,
been watching an horror film on TV,
so already scared to death you see,
then this occurrence happens, ouch,
wish now I'd stayed on the couch,
no one else in the house to help,
expect the dog who started to Yelp,
adrenaline rushing through my veins,
a bad smell, of cause it's from the drains,
trying to look brave dead calm,
can't let them see my sweaty palms,
what to give them as a treat,
I'll just give up I'm beat,
those big BLACK EYES looking at me,
a sight I really didn't want to see,
then came a roar, so loud, so desperate,
like the shrill cry of a Banshee,
Please mister I really need a pee.
