Notes About The Poem

Inspired by Halloween hustle scenes

Fun-Diseased World

Avenged adult world
Fishy funny kids’ play world
The saturnine feast.

Sorcerous* Nox night
Lone places yawn hell pervades
global fun-disease

Ghosts grovel and then wolves weep
Goblins grin skeletons sway
Thus the streets savaged

              *********

* Roman goddess of night

This is an eerie and creative write. The imagery lets the reader feel they are actually in this "monsterous" world. nice job

I like ninety percent of this poem. are you sure global fun- disease can't be something else though? Like maybe "Epidemic of Joy"?

This is one great haiku. The second stanza says it all. Thanks for sharing... Lucilla

Aloha Dr. Mehta... funny how all hallows eve is perceived... yet the thoughts pervade each mind of the possibilities that there is a more dark and profound basis for the mask of fear you present herein... a view of irreality at its best... base upon your closing lines... thank you for the message that opens all to the dark side of one's conscience... all of the best from this life, to you, and all of your relations... Michael.
