Burning children

[Keith]

I’ll open the door with a flamethrower
taste the sticky sweets of hell
if one more boneyard finger
reaches up to press my bell.

Set the dog loose with her tooth
turn fake blood into real
and listen to their screaming
as the hell-hound finds her meal.

But warmth is only a smile
plastic pumpkin full of sweets,
goblins, ghosts and vampires
drag parents round our streets

and if the dog sneaks out the door
she’ll lick them clean to death
run around and chase her tail
to complaints of her bad breath.

I had this debate with someone recently, when I was a kid 1970 we could only get Turnips, but now...... many things are truly Americanised

[rowens]

Well, I take things seriously. Turnips seem more serious in Europe, than pumpkins, to me, here, Here, in my town, where they do this thing called, Trunk or Treat.

---

Trunk or Treat means you go to church early, before the sun goes down. And all the older people you go to church with have candy in the trunk of they car. So on Halloween, everybody goes to their local church parkinglot. And that's it.

---

It almost makes people sick. Only me, so far. . . .

---

I was fully ready to have my own self burned, when I was growing up in it. . . .

---

Excuse me, I'm jvst mad that the last few years, they don't trick or treat around here. They stopped i+, saying it's too dangerous.

---

I. I don't think it's got more dangerous. Or however you spell it. I think parents have got more lazy. . . . I'll open a new tab. . . .
