Sidewalk No8852

Horror and dreadful cheers, 
Forgetting absurdity, 
Haunted by untold fears.

Tango with monsters & ghosts, 
Guilty Pleasure, thus fits.
Revenants; our revered hosts.

Dreaming on the dark side, 
With nightmares as close mates, 
Intoxicated high tide.

There, a River overflows, 
Falling the sidewalk's tears, 
Whole Sunset Boulevard froze.

Aloft, the people of night, 
All sky seats are sold out.
'trick or treat?' 
The kids shout.

Gone by the fantasy phase, 
A leaf in the wind sways, 
Another Halloween lays.
