A Halloween Song



A Halloween Song

The fright on Halloween mayn’t be what’s seen
Pretty faces that smile and stay awhile
Relaxed and comfortable you’ll take that treat
The hand of horror reaching behind to attack and defeat

Their eyes are sirens screeching loud
But you don’t see them in the crowd
Happily partying they’re looking for prey
Cracked minds with devouring faces that seek to slay

Come the real predators with sweet tongues
You’ll be flattered and vulnerable hearing happy songs
Look closely and see a reflection of you
In calculating eyes that want to draw out your life’s brew

And how close they are inside your lager
Sister, brother, mother or father
Friends that are foes all with seething destructive minds
Don’t drink or eat the sweet melting candy or heady wines
