Halloween Haikus
In the shifting air
the sweet scent of candy corn
candle wax burning
All doors are open
an ancient mystery lives
I bask in its glow

Fooled
So they roared and laughed
Big Joe was in his glory
He had them all fooled
He reveled in it
Bashing away at the keys
His thoughts ran amuck
But deep in his heart
He knew they felt all his pain
He knew that they cared
