The Witches's Halloween

The witches Halloween party Writers’ Cramp

19

On Halloween, an old witch
Sits in her lair in a haunted mansion
Overlooking the city
Surrounded by candy wrappers.
And a discarded costume.

The leftovers of trick or treat
Her trick was to take possession
Of the little ones.

As they pass under the shadow of a cat
Lucifer, her black cat familiar,
she sells their souls
to the devil.

Who appears
Like a bat in the wind
A bat straight out of hell.
At o dark hundred
The bewitching hour.

Candy wrappers
