Killer Night

 
It’s going to be a chill night,
The sexy ghouls and spicy goblins are everywhere,
Their costumes are skintight,
With dangerous curves from their tops to derrieres.

I’m going to love the sights,
Slight erotic actions are bound to make me move,
The music sounds so right,
I’m quite neurotic but I’ll still go out to groove.

The streets are slightly dark,
Vampires, witches and werewolves are on parade,
There’s noise in the park,
The undead are screaming mad in a motorcade.

I see many zombies,
They’re all dressed in camouflage and tattered rags,
Then I notice they’re all diseased,
Damn it, they’re Trump supporters waving their flags
Oh what a drag…

Because it’s a killer,
Killer night,
The zombies were told not to be afraid of Covid-19,
Now they’re all killing,
Out of spite,
They’re not wearing masks and coughing all over Halloween.

They ain’t poppin’ and lockin’,
They’re just walking around with mouths open wide,
Yelling obscenities while mockin’
Those of us with faces covered as they look wild eyed.

But like Gloria Gaynor I will survive,
I ran like hell to get away from the living dead,
All because orange forty-five,
Told his base not to be afraid of the Covid spread.

I may have pushed a nurse or two,
They weren’t running fast enough in those high heels,
And if I hear one achoo,
I’m punching people to get out of my way because this is real.
Sorry, I got the feels…

I want to use my chiller,
Chiller font,
To express the anxiety these zombies are causing me to grieve,
This sounds familiar,
It’s quite the fright,
Like M J did back in the day but this is happening on Hollow’s Eve.

I think they’re killers,
With killing tasks,
They’re not social distancing but are rather causing a scene,
They won’t consider
Wearing masks,
The super spreaders are taking all the fun out of Halloween.
