Haiku Friday: Best costumes
I hope everyone had a great Halloween! It was quite an adventure at my house. Joy showed up and then commandeered the job of handing out candy, which at one point involved giving one kid a can of sardines, interrogating others about their age, and then kicking one little scamp after a vivid exchange of insults. (Seriously-- all those things happened).
The costumes this year were better than average. Lots of superheroes, princesses, and (oddly) Roman gladiators. Intriguingly, there were no older kids showing up at 9:30, a staple of Waco Halloweens. (In fact, one year when IPLawGuy was visiting he put on his Lowell Weicker costume and hit several houses to no undue notice).
Let's haiku about favorite costumes this week-- your own, or someone else's.
Here is mine:
Simple, classic, easy
I was a ghost! One drawback:
Looked like the Klan.
Now it is your turn! Make it 5 syllables/7 syllables/5 syllables, and it doesn't even have to rhyme!

A grip,Casanova. Oh

She was Celtic Saint
Gobnait in cloak bee buttons
Pinned on.No one answered door.
'Course she was 60
At the time. The kids asked who
She was. Hard to explain.
One usually dresses
As a sinner for Halloween.
No one informed her.
