“forgive us for what we do”
Hallowmas masked
as All Saint’s Day and
a Solstice as Christmas
for man and god’s
sake there never were
any snakes living in Ireland

your trick
is your
treat
what shall
we dress
as this
Hallowmas
Eve let's
be
masked as
opposites
so if you
are a mouse
then i'm
a cat
but if i'm
a dog
then
you're
a cat
just
like that
and if i
came
then
you'd go
so when i
return
you're
away
some say
that opposites
attack but i'm having
trouble
trying
to
keep up
with your yin
and my yangs

He stood erect, still and silent
like a wax museum figure
in an inconspicuous nook
hidden in nocturnal darkness.
His long, needlelike canines gleamed
in the moons ebbing subdued light.
Blood red fleshy folds encompassed
these parasitic instruments.
Two grand, black, membranous wings hung
close to his sides, down to his feet.
On a sudden, voices were heard
Trick-or-treaters were approaching,
nearing his ambush location.
With anxious anticipation
his webbed wings began to quiver.
