Caleb Orion - Halloween of 2019

It was...
Halloween of 2019
The Wolf Man stared into his cell phone screen
And Frankenstein spent his time logged in
While his monster's mind soaked in formalin

Ghosts were gathered out by the front door
Downloading Sweet Smash from the Candy Apple Store
In the black lagoon beneath a full blood moon
Hear the Swamp Thing's karaoke out of tune

Cobwebs as home security
Black mass that lacks obscurity
Haunted with spectral surety
Halloween of 2019

It was...
Halloween of 2019
And Dracula's selfie couldn't be seen
A crowd of clowns with painted-on frowns
Browsed BooTube streams of haunted fairgrounds

A wicked flock on their pentagram chalk
Traded plastic straw for brooms of hemp stalk
While the skeleton queen with her spinal dream
Just Danced herself into smithereens

Cobwebs as home security
Black mass that lacks obscurity
Haunted with spectral surety
Halloween of 2019

The Zombies and Demons and Mummies attended
A party that some social site recommended
If they'd known they'd been shown by a digital spy
The algorithmic AI would have ended up unfriended

Cobwebs as home security
Black mass that lacks obscurity
Haunted with spectral surety
Halloween of 2019

Cobwebs as home security
Black mass that lacks obscurity
Haunted with spectral surety
Halloween of 2019

It was
Halloween of 2019
