Halloween Scare
As time is waning, will you be paying attention?
Procrastination, what ifs, and what you could have been?
Therefore, is your life in order? Are the bills paid for?
Beyond life’s shore, will a child be kick out the front door?
Most Americans live on a weekly salary
What? A peasant, a home vacant, living austerely
If rich, the absent may lead to courts and agony
The end draws near, the goodbyes, the tears fall in all eyes
As your breath grows cold and hearing the family's cries
The spirit takes form as the body is left behind
Every mortal experience is clear and outlined
All words, actions, thoughts, and deeds are put on the big screen
Pleasant dreams and remember to enjoy Halloween
