Fun and fear

Halloween night
A quiet neighborhood
A quiet street in a sleepy suburb
Lovely houses, greenery and shrubbery
The kids laughed as they walked by the open coffin
With the skeleton in it, a skeleton minus the head,
Laughed at the mechanical doll hanging from that high wrougth iron fence
And vomit coming out of her mouth
The missing head from the skeleton in the coffin was stuck on a spike in the grass
They also laughed at the witch sitting on that big branch on that nearby tree
It was getting darker and spookier by the minute yet the kids enjoyed the outing
And the load of candies they were getting.
They laughed....but suddently they screamed when they saw
As the witch started moving from her tree and as she swooped over their heads
