Poisons

Witches and warlocks gather around, 
will give you a list of poisons abound…

Arsenic, Hemlock, Belladonna you know…

Add to your list, these below;
Purple Foxglove; Black Hellebore;
 Deadly Nightshade; Strychnine Tree; 
Stavesacre; Jimsonweed; Yew; 
Calabar Bean; Aconite; Clematis; 
Cocculus Indicus and to many
 more to mention…

You will find truth serum, sulfur 
elixir, embalming fluid, spider venom, 
snake venom too…

Toxic gases are a must, to mix 
with this dastardly stuff…  

How else will you be able to 
whip up this nasty brew…

Wishing you a rocking Halloween!
