Monsters' Ball

Monsters' Ball

A Poem by Rita L. Sev
"

Were any of you invited?

"

The Monsters are having a shindig

They’ve rented the Teamster’s Hall

They’re putting on their finest furs

For the annual Boogeyman’s Ball

 

You may remember last year’s;

It made the evening news

The Monsters ate Chad Peters

Who did the interviews

 

He was the perfect finger food,

Press corps flesh and bone

And being civilized Monsters

They returned his microphone

Yes, I think so... :)
I read the poem, had fun with it, but when I scrolled down to write this and saw the author's note I cracked up. Funny Rita, very funny. You do know how to make me laugh. I think it's that quirky attitude. :)

Ha! Maybe that's why you weren't invited, Sheila... not a civilized enough monster! ;) Thanks!
Okay...I won't ask. (I'm not sure I wanna know...)
But...is it okay if I chuckle? Giggle a little?
Because this is a fabulously funny piece, Sweetie!
And I love it!
(Okay...can I ask now?)
