Bah! Humbug! Halloween is Humbug!

The most revolting holiday.

Bah!  Humbug!  Halloween is Humbug!

 

By Elton Camp

 

Most holidays from pagan rites did arise

In the case of Halloween, it’s no surprise

 

It glorifies the macabre and even the dead

That alone is actually quite enough said

 

“But for the little kids it is just a fun day”

Is what so many will likely protest and say

 

But is that the type of “fun” that kids need

A night devoted to most insatiable greed?

 

On their insistent demand of “Trick or treat,”

People give them unwholesome things to eat

 

Perhaps it may be a sicko psycho out there

Who has a bit of poison that he can share

 

And this in a child’s mind might well stick

Vandalism’s okay if you just call it a trick

 

This wrong by the parents can be controlled

Kids won’t do it if the reasons they’re told
