Inside the Mind:

Jack O' Lantern

By Jada FergusonPublished 12 days ago • 1 min read

October exists inside of me

It is my month, my term, my reign

-

You all crawl into my jagged smile

Float on my stringy guts

View everything in the afterglow of my orange

You filter my essence

And inject my flavor

Into all your shit

-

You are the Super PAC

To a campaign I don't have to run anymore

I get 99.9% of the vote every October

Even those who are repulsed by me

Find themselves in my patches
