A weather-aged timepiece
Settled upon my eye's periphery.
Leaves dressed in ceremony
Sounded the night with attitude
Beneath a hallowed moon.
Curiosity stepped me closer,
Closer still,
To the front porch
Where I saw a large, engraved stone.
Wearing cold night air
On chill bumped arms
I wrapped myself in Halloween fear.
My trembled hand
Approached the red-eyed
Jack-o-lantern until
It rested upon the upraised lid.
Three crows surged
With flight and stalling stare
Into afterlife's oblivion.
