Halloween...

Fully integrated into the scene,
He doesn't have to mind his walk;
Licensed to be scary and mean,
He need not think before his squawk.
How are you doing? How have you been?
You better stay awake this Halloween.

The dark suits and the flowing capes,
Plastic canines embellishing the lips;
He need not now plan an escape,
As he whiffs the blood off his fingertips.
How are you doing? How have you been?
You better stay wary this Halloween.

The drug stores are out of gauze and tape,
How come Mommy let you bathe in grime?
As he walks past, you- in his drape,
Do you smell the scent of time?
How are you doing? How have you been?
You better watch your step this Halloween.

The expensive coats of mink and fur,
Microchips airing pre-recorded howls;
In attire, he would never differ,
You wouldn't suspect his being on a prowl.
How are you doing? How have you been?
Who holds your gaze this Halloween?

Every costume you bought from the mall,
On discount- designed to conceal and Hyde;
You've invited yourself to the Monsters' ball,
Together again the ghouls shall abide.
How are you doing? How have you been?
Won't you dance away this Halloween?

Jack O'Lantern will finally find a house,
Your pumpkins gobbling up all the light;
The treat was the trick on your nous,
This is the dawn of the eternal night.
How are you doing? how have you been,
Now that the mask is off Halloween?
