TRICK OR TREAT

Cool, dry, autumn moon dotted with craters, a perfect night

Witches glide their brooms while chortling in flight

Sidewalks filled with goblins, ghouls and menacing black cats

Better beware of the daunting, wicked rats

A perfect ambiance to embrace muted fear

Don’t be afraid sweetheart no need to shed a tear

The doorbell rings the chorus of trick or treats

Fill the baskets with strawberry twizzles, gumballs and toffee sweets

Laugh, giggle and dance home with your bag of pleasure

Hurry, hurry it’s time to devour your Halloween treasure

The most alluring cache are the rainbow shreds

An intriguing mélange of iridescent pinheads

It’s exciting. Now it’s time to try them

A fatal trick. A Fentanyl laced gem

It was the last breath of a young girl’s life

It’s the world we live in. The world of strife
