DON’T SCREW WITH THE DO

If one fine year Halloween came too early
‘twould vex many people and make them real surly.
Cauldrons would boil, witches’ toes would go curly.
Out of their dank graves would come Zombies burly.

The world of the pagans would be quite upset.
You’d see a whole army of ghoulish things fret.
For you see Halloween is like their New Year’s Eve.
If New Year’s came early, oh can you conceive
of the befuddlement which that change would create?
It would be strangulation by great hands of Fate!

So don’t commit sacrilege moving it up,
and carving a pumpkin or filling your cup
with warm apple cider, or you may need a nurse
to deal with the consequence of ten witches’ curse!
