The Nightmare King

The Nightmare King Mighty autumn ruler All powerful deity, Travels on the wings of crows Brings spooks and goblins out of hidey holes Pulls basilisk out of swampy ponds Gnashing his terrible teeth Throwing knives in fearsome ways Terrifying pumpkin fields Dancing his Lewd and Eager dance Lavishly spitting and spewing Angry hot lava-like bullets Arriving on the skeleton of a death dragon The Nightmare King Rules Halloween In all his War-like glory Terrifying us as we Trick –or-Treat
