Jump 'ore beheaded this witching night
Away comes the pumpkin rolling down his
Crooked smile oozing slimy of twig blight
Kindle orange flame and eyes hollow clown whiz
Otho he couldn't scared himself silly
Lighting the hillside of creepy lackey
Attached his piercing eyes upon cousin Willy
Nude on the back porch eating Carmel corn wacky
Tasting on that bloody red apple stick
Eating those worms that crawls in and out
Right of his pumpkin brain oozing onto
Naive children knocking on his door lark about

wow, this is a gruesome and original take on the kindly jack-o-the-night-light. The lines about the nude cousin eating the caramel corn wacky and sucking on the bloody red apple stick seem to paint a decadent scene. Good one on ya for Halloween!
