THE OLD BLACK WITCH’S CAT # 1

The most comfortably fat

Old black witch’s cat

Is often known to take a nap

In her black pointed hat

ARE YOU WEARING DEVILS HORNS?

 

Are you wearing devils horns?

Now I get one of those winks

You’re wearing the tail as well?

You naughty little minx

You are clearly more devilish

Than anyone else thinks

Is it because it’s Halloween

Or a few too many Drinks

ALL-TIME CLASSIC MOVIE FAVOURITES – 28 DAYS (2000)

 

“28 Days” is a Comedy drama, written by Susannah Grant and Directed by Betty Thomas.

 

New York based writer Gwen Cummings (Sandra Bullock) is ordered by the court to enter a drug and alcohol rehab centre for twenty-eight days or go to jail for the same period, after ruining her sister's wedding day when she stole the wedding limousine and when on a drunken joyride before crashing it into someone’s house.

Gwen resents having to be there because although she is aware she drinks too much but doesn't believe it's a problem and if she chose to, she could stop at any time.

Unfortunately, her live-in boyfriend Jasper (Dominic West) encouraged her excessive alcohol consumption because he was just as bad.

Her councillor Cornell (Steve Buscemi) and the other people in her group sessions

Andrea (Azura Skye), Gerhardt (Alan Tudyk), Oliver (Michael O'Malley), Roshanda (Marianne Jean-Baptiste), Daniel (Reni Santoni), Bobbie Jean (Diane Ladd) and Eddie Boone (Viggo Mortensen), force her to confront her demons and lay the foundations for rebuilding the relationship between Gwen and her sister Lily (Elizabeth Perkins).

THE LESSON THAT HALLOWEEN TEACHES

 

The lesson that Halloween teaches

Us all, Might well strike a chord

It’s pretending to be something you're not

Which will lead to a sweet reward

IF VAMPIRES CAN’T SEE

 

If vampires can’t see

Their own reflection

In a mirror, either flat

Convex or concave

Then the thing that I

Have always wondered is

How do they manage?

When they have to shave?

I MET A GIRL ON HALLOWEEN

I met a girl on Halloween,

Wearing blood suckers attire

But alas she wasn’t costumed

She was actually a vampire

THANK GOODNESS FOR HALLOWEEN

 

Thank goodness for Halloween,

I can say that without hesitation

Because the cobwebs have suddenly

Become Halloween decorations
