Witch's Fireball

She pulls back her arm In order to forcefully produce A ball of fire To land upon a man Wandering alone down a lonely street Just minding his own business To be instantly killed By a fireball She produced this fire In order to fulfill a quota That quota for Halloween In order for her powers To be complete Forcefully she throws these fireballs To gather men’s souls And contort them inside her She laughs an eerie laugh Knowing her time has come She will rule this town So all will know her And fear And they will worship Everything about her And her evil ways She now slips into the night Knowing she only needs one more One more unsuspecting soul To be hers And everything will fall Into her powers A powerful day that will be She will terrorize the town
