[Aeolynn]: 217.Trick or Treat, An Elftown Contest Entry
Rating: 0.00
At the door we scream,
And the person within
Taking in our costumes with the greatest esteem,
Saying…
What a fright, oh my!
Never have I seen such
Costumes by and by,
For I have seen many,
Oh yes I have
Like the creeping jenny
Only that they live in my rooms,
And they are quite scary
For their skins aren’t costumes,
If you can imagine…
Now we were silent in fear
And were less rowdy then we had been
For news of monsters and creatures
Frightened us silly
Listening to their hideous features
For the children that we were
Petrified in the intake
Of the facts of this transfer
And as we turned to run
She called out to wait
But we were done
Until Jimmy was grabbed
And Lilly was too
Matt then was stabbed
A view I got of the woman’s fangs, a close-up,
And I screamed for help
Then I woke up.
