Pumpkin Eater

Peter Peter pumpkin eater

Poses as a trick-or-treater.

Jack-o’-lanterns left and right

He steals to squash his appetite.  

The last one was too hot to handle

Next time, he’ll blow out the candle.

Weigh Up There

Mrs. Skeleton asked her hubby,

“Honey, do you think I’m chubby?”

He assured her, as she groaned,

“You’re not fat, Dear. Just big-boned.

Full Moon

The werewolf’s fists are getting sore

From pounding on the bathroom door. 

That orb in the Earth’s gravitational pull

Is not the only moon that’s full.

Bonegee

So, Skeleton says, “Bungee jump?

No way! You guys are nuts!”

The Mummy taunted, “What’s the matter?

Haven’t got the guts?"

Passion

A gator ate a golfer named Potter

As he searched for his ball in the water.

To the gator’s chagrin, 

The golfer within

Still plays, and has never been hotter.

Paradox

Such a strange paradox

Whenever a man

Is his own worst foe

And his own biggest fan.

Flush

I do support your right to speak,

And would never make you hush.

All I ask is, when your done,

Please don’t forget to flush.
