Halloween once a year
You turn unfailingly at our door
Trick or treat you proclaim
It's your choice
Then I choose trick
And open the door
Fully masked
Resulting in the babes
Crying witch and running away
Despite holding in my hands
A treasure loot of candies
How easy it is to unbalance them
With beauty when ugliness
Is the expected norm
Silence is the best policy
They shyly return with their lolly bags
I know next year I'll have my fun again
And will dip in the candies myself
That should shock them
Why should children have all the fun?
