The outdoor masquerade

The outdoor masquerade

A Poem by Brandon Lee Burton

the biggest party
the sweetness upon your lips, as you dive back into your bag, what can you say? your 8 years old and its your favorite day, you dress in elaborate costumes, only once each year, you dawn a new face, hoping someone will be amazed, wow what a costume you have this year, lets see if johnny can even compare, he won last year, i'll show him, its my day, where i can show everyone my creative side, i have, i have the best costume,i am, a face in the crowd, i will be noticed, you'll see, ha ha i am, your worst night mare, i am, can you guess? i dont think so, i am me, no one can be me, i am unique, i dress in my tux, but i have one slight difference, it is made, from duct tape, and i made a mask, of who i really am, it is from duct tape too, but the face, it is, me, i smile, but it makes you think, what am i hiding? my sneer behind as i know, i know you cant beat my costume, my mask, so i will, i will collect so much more candy, i have the town record, 17 trash bags, i beam at that, i take pride, take pride in it cause when Valentines day comes round, i will be giving chocolates from this day, he he he, i will still have a gynormous boutny of candy, and you, you will have chowed yours down by christmas, ha ha ha, i am your worst night mare, i love this day, i love Halloween
