Halloween Never Ends


Halloween Never Ends



Joe Lewis went on a binge
Ended up at Cosmos Bar
In Soi Cowboy, Bangkok
On Halloween night.
Twenty drinks too sober

He saw creatures lurking about
As the full moon rose over
The Chaya Prao River

He saw banshees, bewitching beautiful yet deadly siren
Centaurs. Cerebus, coydogs, Cthulu
demons, Devils, Dagon, Dragons, Dwarfs
Evil elves, Frankenstein monsters, Freaks
Ghosts, Ghouls, Goblins, Hell hounds
Holocausts, Imp, Leperchauns
Two-headed monsters, monsters,, naked incubi, orcs
Satyrs, succubi, warlocks, werewolves, wild things
winged monkeys, witches, wolves, wraiths,
Yeti, and zombies.

The monsters saw him and began chasing him
Down the dark dangerous streets of Bangkok
Yelling “after him. Death to all humans”
Thousands of people newly turned into zombies
Joined the chase

He saw an open bar
Ran into it and found himself
Back at the Cosmos Bar
At 0 Dark hundred

He sighed in relief
Had another drink
Then looked out at the street
The creatures had returned

He ran out and the chase continued
until he ran back into the Cosmos Bar
For the second time that night

Then he looked up
And the chase continued….
