Halloween Preparations

A slide of sticky slimy glue
Newspaper on an orange balloon

Red sheets over all the lights 
Corners full of plastic mites

Spiders hangs from a thread
A fancy lady with out a head

Pumpkins spilling out their guts
Liquid oozing from long fresh cuts

Green pocked zombies from Montana 
Outer-space vampires with antenna

Cinnamon and sweets spicing the air
Witches wondering what to wear

And when it seems that all is lost
A brand new cloak made for cost

Hand-made by a dear good friend
Painted blue, with a hookah that bends

With sabers and glitter lighting the night
We shall cause quite a fright

Be not alarmed, things aren't what they seem
On this cool and shocking Halloween
