H A L L O W E E N

howling werewolves, gargoyles, ghosts and ghouls
a vampire, a zombie and a mummy walked into a bar….
lighting the way are grinning carved jack-o-lanterns
loving the full-sized candy bars given by neighbors
outstandingly macabre holiday, yet not sinister
wily witches and warlocks perform cauldron magic
elixirs and potions prepared super carefully according to ancient recipes
eerie evening, creepy to many, a delight to trick-or-treaters
need to transmogrify or become invisible? This is the night for both
