HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

WHY WITCHES LIKE ME
GET INSOMNIA
AT FORTY PAST THREE

Oh that bitch-witch
Sixth sense
And the too-who-who
Of the owl in the stew
The dancing and prancing
And the wild romancing
Of the bloody bats
In my belfry
They kept me up
And in a huff
ALL NIGHT!

Then around four am
(when I finally slept)
Some fool must
Have thought it cool
To send or unspool
A string of dreams
Or hopes and schemes
That kept me awake
Until it was light.

AND TONIGHT IS HALLOWEEN
AND I'M ON BLOODY DUTY!

Manuela Cardiga
