Halloween, Oh Halloween

Halloween, Oh Halloween

A Poem by The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)

 

It’s that special time of year again

So come as your not…

 

you can go with tradition

And be a haunting ghost

To hide from those demons

For one brief moment.

 

Go as that princess

You’ve always dreamed of being

So you can captivate Prince Charming

That’s also at the party…

 

Just remembering

He’s also in disguise.

 

Step into the limelight

As your favorite celebrity

And pretend this gathering

Is the Oscars or Grammys.

 

The Choices are endless if you like

To give a good fright,

Like a witch or vampire

And if you enjoy electricity

How bout Frankenstein.

 

But for a really good scare

There’s an endless array of politicians

To make your agenda clear.

 

Halloween, oh Halloween

How I love thee

For it is the one day a year

It’s acceptable to not be you.

Humor hides several pointed barb, I like watching the unthinking snag themselves.
I guess I have a warped mind, I once went to a Halloe E'en party as a "Dear John" letter, dressed as a toliet with a letter taped to the tank--told ya', warped mind.

I love this. I think we shouldn't be afraid to be us, but the hole world is afraid to be themself, I'm not; I think Halloween is stupid because you get sugar (which is bad for you) and you get to live in a dream. I don't think that should be just one day! (: It should be our life! Very good write, there are two sides tho, but nice description on that one side (:

Fun piece that makes a great point about escaping reality and heading into fantasy. Makes me want to pay close attention to the adult costumes to get a glimpse inside someone's thoughts.

The perfect Halloween poem.
Very entertaining!

Note to self:
Must keep this in mind-
"Prince Charming
That’s also at the party…
Just remembering
He’s also in disguise."

Sometimes, there is a safety in becoming who we aren't. I like how you wrote this in poetry format. I think I'll be a ballerina! Or a princess ... :-D
