Dear Subscriber:
Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of
view. The theme for this week is Halloween, which is celebrated today, Oct. 31.
I welcome comments on my poems at https://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com

A Halloween poem about the realities behind the
fantasies of horror.
Have a look in the mirror of your dreams:
All the horrors that you see are real.
Lest you think the world is as it seems,
Let your skin crawl, your frozen blood congeal.
Of fear and fantasy now take your fill.
Wells of sorrow lie beneath your feet.
Each sun-drenched field you mercilessly till
Endures to see your ultimate defeat.
Now let yourself let go your last conceit.
