Happy Howl-o-ween!
An October Night by Charles Audette
The wind whispers
A wary warning
There was plenty, still
Early this morning
These primal urges
Are hard to fight
An unholy diet
A dark appetite
The pavement scrapes
With scuttling leaves
I'll pull the drapes
And hope to deceive
The moon suffocates
In ominous clouds
Shut off the lights
Heartbeats too loud
Then the neighbor's gate creaks
But it's not the wind
That seeks to feast
On fearing humans
Red brake lights
A car crawls by slow
The shadowy shapes
On my dark doorstep know
That the empty window
Of my house lies.
The horrible truth
Hides deep inside
Everything tonight
Could have been just dandy
But now the demons have wrath-
Cause I ate all the candy!
Happy Halloween!
