Bewitching Tower

Bewitching Tower

By Bud Lemire on Oct 29, 2008

It was Halloween at the Tower, in the alternative universe

Where things kept getting bad, until they got worse

Len did his best to keep order at hand

But there were some things he couldn't understand

The male residents all had pumpkins as heads

The females were witches where they were lead

They had green faces, that looked so real

Mark and Steve tried taking one off, but it wouldn't peel

A witch on her broom came flying by

Waving a wand, shouting “you're all gonna die!”

Mark was heard loudly , “What kind of crock is this?!”

While Steve just ducked and swore, he sure was pissed

Judi came out of the office to see what was the commotion

While one witch sneaked in and switched her coffee to potion

She asked Mary Lynn if the coffee tasted alright

But there was no Mary Lynn, she was nowhere in sight

All of a sudden Judi felt a change come over her face

Her ears and nose got much bigger and warts were all over the place

She ran out of the office, terrified of this event

Down the hallway was the direction she went

In the Maintenance room the Tower workers huddled together

Seems each Halloween brought them too much pressure

Mark had an idea that would help them out

There's a Wizard on the 15th floor, might know what this is about

He ran for the elevator, pushing the button to go

Just missing a witch who dived pretty low

On the 15th floor the Wizard was home

As the door opened up, he wasn't alone

Mark started to explain, but then became mute

The Wizard just smiled in his black suit

The Wizard's companion had glowing blue eyes

And with her dark hair, she was the exact same size

Both agreed, this Halloween party had gone too far

Time to find out who these Halloween Villains are

The Wizard's companion then cast a spell

The source of the chaos was easy to tell

“Someone at the top of the Tower is using magic here”

“A spell that is very strong but nothing to fear”

“Between us two, we'll soon have the order back”

“The Tower will be set free of this ghastly attack”

As Mark stood there staring, they both disappeared

He hoped it was them and not what he feared

The Wizard and his companion appeared at the scene

“Damn! Those witches skin really are green!”

She smiled and some words were spoken

The witches laughed thinking she was joking

He raised his wand and in a blink of an eye

The witches and pumpkinheads, all went bye bye

And the Tower was once again back on its feet

Everyone was happy, not a trick, but a treat

Happy Halloween Everyone! - Bud
