Halloween is black
Like a never ending pit of diversity
Different creatures, heroes, criminals, and beings
Walking across the universe

Halloween is glitter
Like a shimmery ostentatious vampire
Different, lives, stories, dreams and nightmares.
Soaring through the naked forest limbs
Halloween is yellow
Like a glowing carved pumpkin
Different faces, colors, styles, and purposes
Sending an array of emotions up and down your spine

Halloween is you and me
Halloween is everyone and everything

Halloween is more than candy and costumes.Sometimes, you can find out who someone is, even with the mask on.
