Scary Night
Darkness descending,
Dread ascending,
Living dead crawl out of unseen places,
Walking with lacerations and mutilated faces.
Enchantresses are eager to cast spells,
Lightning bolts fly around like shells,
Hade's gates are wide open,
Silhouette creatures come for the chosen.
Vampires stealthy come out of their closets,
With flaming eyes, they morph into bats,
A Halloween with uncanny deposits,
On broomsticks, witches take flight with black cats.
Gloom pervades the day,
Creepy crawling things move like tendrils,
They cluster the pathway,
A cauldron is seething with pigs' entrails.
