Monroe City, Missouri;

ANTI-HALLOWEEN

Don't
hold your
breath; but History's
fear of death has
evolved from All Souls Day
into a living limerick sanctifying a
season for witches, ghosts, goblins and young
children who wear vampire costumes--hinting to imitate
our world politic. Halloween appears as Humanity's creeping critter:
slick holiday tick!.....................This celebration may be a treat or
an evil, unfortunate fantasy-trick................It is humor inclined to
be bred-sick. Hear a cacophony of screeches, screams,
epithets and moans worshipping wounded bones of
an ancient, ominous heretic. Finding one's
Life-role is a difficult task
even without requiring us
to parade in
an artificial
mask.
