A shadow in a dusty window,
a whisper from behind a locked door
an empty face in a faded portrait
a drop of blood splashed on the parlor wall
Visions of Violet haunt us on Halloween
when daylight starts to fall.

I want to carve a pumpkin
I want to bring it to life
so I will give it a face, a smile and eyes
and a mouth so it can speak.

my pumpkin will
scream in terror
‘RUN! SHE’S CRAZY AND SHE HAS A KNIFE…RUN FOR YOU LIFE!!!”
