Guided By a Jack-O-Lantern

She stands certainly with a kind of poise Loves the holiday that comes once a year Gives up nothing to walk like she enjoys She struts down holding a pumpkin of fear It shines with a power that it employs Being guided by light she did appear The Jack-O-Lantern grins a deathly grin Leads her down a path she has never been
