Death's Breath

Twilight hours brought devil remarks Evil sleeps within the pumpkins What terror comes forth and embarks When the fierce nature of one’s sins Corrodes the fabric of times skins Screams are displayed, a tale of hate Having pains which you can’t relate Symbols of horror shown forward Death breathing on you it’s your fate Shows Halloween’s presence inward Russell Sivey

Russell, sometimes I think that you feel halloween is evil but other times you think of it as fun. I bet in reality it's all just fun for you, my friend. Though this one certainly touches on the evil side!!
