Upon her neck was just a skull;
…She had thin stilts for legs.
Two reasons rose for me to mull
…Among the milk and eggs.

No picture of a starving child
…Was ever worse than she,
An irony that my mind filed
…There at the grocery.

Are you scared?
Get under a sheet –
Be a ghost!

Skeletons?
None after the treats
Is skin, bones.

Halloween
For tykes; rest: grow up.
Not for teen.

A goblin
Door to door – candy.
Then, gobbling.

Wee vampires,
Better than blood, like
Chocolate.

Witch cauldron:
Bubble, boil, bubble,
Bubble gum!

Neighborhood:
Houses too scattered –
No one knocks.
