A Halloween Surprise
The porch light was on
The candy dish was full
The candle in the pumpkin
Cast shadows on the ghoul
He was waiting for them
A Bigfoot costume, he wore
He hoped he was frightening
When he opened the door
The doorbell began to ring
He saw ghosts and fairies
Batman, Hulk, and Thor
And others just as scary
As he turned the light off
The doorbell rang once more
He opened it and stared
At something never seen before
It was very tall and lean
It had an oversized head
Two oval eyes, no mouth
It filled him with dread
To a spaceship, it led him
Then they hurtled through space
Landing on a distant planet
Where he met another race
They stood eight feet tall
Were covered with long hair
Had feet that were oversized
With big red eyes, they glared
They took a look at him
And began a gibberish laugh
His costume didn’t fool them
From him, ripped it in half
Now he is a spectacle
And much to his dismay
Daily, he is on exhibit
On a planet so far away
