Zombie Halloween


by David Knape

Full moon tonight
will light the sky
it's Halloween
and passers-by
used to come knocking
on our door
due to Covid though
fun is no more

No gangs of goblins
in the night
no monsters who
give us a fright
no buckets filled
as were before
Covid changed all that
forever more

Who killed this night
this hallowed time
who called an end
to what was fine
oh Halloween
may we implore
rise from the dead
your night restored

As hosts we wait
with treats in store
yet here we sit
completely bored
no ghosts appear
nor knocks on door
normal Halloween
is never more.
