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

A Halloween poem about how much scary creatures
delight in scaring people:
Hobgoblins know the proper way to dance:
Arms akimbo, loopy legs askew,
Leaping into darkness with delight,
Lusting for the ecstasy of fright,
Open to the charm of horrors new.
Well may you start your screaming in advance,
Even as you give a ghoul a chance,
Each creepy creature craving to say, "Boo!",
Near heaven in its netherworld of night.
