Favorite Quote:
"It is only through labor and painful effort, by grim energy and resolute courage, that we move on to better things." - Theodore Roosevelt


Children flee on witch's brooms

and racecars;

viewing each house as a new handful of sweets.

The night swallows all of the laughs and howls.

I have graduated from the taker to the giver.

 

Open, close.

Open, close.

Here you go,

Happy Halloween.

Swig, swig.

Open, close.

I like your costume, miss.

 

For, isn't it funny how

on the one night you get to dress up

as something you are not,

I still found myself begging to be someone else.
