Halloween Love Story

He comes back again like every year before,
she shouts at him right through the door
“Still it’s no,” she said, “you’re nothing but a bore,
“I just don’t love you anymore.”

“Besides, your visit might be misconstrued,
“the carpet’s practically brand new,
“you know what use I put the old one to,
“it’s in a shallow grave with you.”

Sadly, the old lich turned with an “Ugh,”
each year some parts he lost to rats and bugs,
they’d eaten every bit of the old rug,
(tho truly it had been too snug.)
