Halloween City Style
Perry Campanella 1948 (FL)
Which Witch is Which :)
when a Bat doesn't need a ball to fly home,
can't tell a Black Kat from a black cat in Rome
a wood bat has no wings to hit one homer,
havin' fun don't stay home alone
Which Jack Lantern beats a Pumpkin
in one's store hands-down:) a hand crafted,
one set alone...over any other lit in a window
at someone's home,
Witch screams from a 'mat' is louder...
than a cat, or 'Kat's Tale' when stepped on
then asked 'What is the mat-ter'
[Or-One]
Witch's hungry howls for a 'Black Kat'
thirsty to mugg some new Witch...
costumed 'City Kat' on some 'White block',
draped in a black cape, on a black pitch
night, not Knight, all out of candy rock
'meow',
Which U hear- Ghostly bats or Witch's HELLO?
'meow' me or BOO; on Fright Night's city streets,
Witch Trick's or treat for pumpkin sweets...
which is, also known, in a City as Holloween.
