Halloween dreams

All hallows night upon them

dream witches pick a foe

to trouble the restful sleep

with thoughts of fear and woe




this year they chose a politician

one with the common touch

that talked of bright new futures

but didn't do very much




in his dreams they sowed a doubt

of revolution at hand

communists, agitators

and the whole free school meals band




when awake he was resolved

to act before courage had gone

No to any more money

forget it and move on




His party they would back him

like sheep they did parade

through the nay division room

that no compassion could be swayed




they cheered the fantastic victory

the government had won

then came the backlash from voters

that thought it badly done




the witches were ecstatic

at the havoc they created

knowing Halloween nightmares

will never be under rated
