Inktober #31 - Project Halloween

AKA It's Halloween, Halloween Project, Halloween, HLWN...

Halloweeeen! That seasonal fever dream... here we go.

0:10

Starting at ten, seconds again!
Sit by the box, flexing my pen!
The door it knocks, I'm not empty-handed
A seven year Frankenstein in a dress wants candy

Thought about giving 'em all bananas
I imagine they would've bawled or damned us
Remember when I myself walked around in a camp
And got beer from a dude! I wonder if I drank...

People loitering around town with bandanas
Vampires in hammocks, grown men out in pampers
Superman in a camper, pumpkins and jack-o-lanterns
On everyone's porches, but what about the lambos?

It's not Gumbo time, it's Dumbo mime
I'm pleasantly surprised people aren't out gunning tonight
It'd be the perfect day to start a violent life of crime
Boost someone's car looking like Michael Myers

Instead we're clowning around like Pennywise
It's hella nice, dressing up as Death giving life advice
In truth we don't really celebrate this here...
I'm just online looking for some greater scares

If you want a good scary movie go watch Sinister
Or It Follows, Hereditary or Into The Mirror
Or anything Spanish or Japanese or Indian, I hear...
They've got some good ghost stories there

It's now the end of Inktober and it's a feast
Spent too many hours this month on my melodies
Felt sometimes I had nothing to say, not but a peep
Yet now that the month is up I feel like

( I could do these in my sleep... but no sleep tonight!
Have you gone and watched Terrifier 3? Then tried to turn off the lights...
I'm lying here in my sheets, looking at the darkness, see beady eyes shimmering
Walls are living things, they crawl and creak, I think I'll go make some noise on NG )

It's Halloween...

I'm warming up! Like an inferno
It's stormy huh? Go close your window
If you see the silouette of a scary looking character
DON'T get scared, it's probably just a criminal!

Unless they're in your hall, staring into your soul
Or possessing your mind, telling you to kill a goat
Or have hands with charred fingers, closing on your throat
If you want to send a message best use the ghost emote

...

Cyberdevil and Aalasteir up in here! With some floating notes...
Despite the bright and fiesty air, I really tried to write my darkest prose...
Cause it's Hallow's Eve tonight, so it oughta be a ghastly close...
I don't think I got it quite right, but like the latest Joker movie... well, you know...

But if you dress up as Sparrow get some black candles
Get some cobwebs and curtains that look disastrous
When kids visit your house just scream 'Who's after us'
And come out bloody and battered with a beak like a demon Platypus

And play some Oija tonight! Bring some demons to life!
When you see smog in the city it seems we're bleeding the skies!
At least it's seasonally suitable and cool and all
If only we'd had a full moon tonight the wolves too would ball

Yeah! That'd be a dream. Or a nightmare. I mean....

Cause it's Halloweeeeen!!!!
