Demons (Amok and Screamin')

another Halloween poem

I can hear the little demons

Hear them running amok and screamin'

Skeletons and ballerinas

Packs of two-legged hyenas

Sniffing around for something sweet

And constantly howling "Trick or treat !"

I can hear their screaming loud and clear

And it's ten days before they'll be here
