It Was The Monster Smash!

It Was The Monster Smash! (in 100 Words)

The “Monster Mash” was a 1962 top hit Halloween tune by Bobby “Boris” Pickett and Lenny Capizzi.

————

The little toe, as most folks know,

that fiendish body part,

takes sudden pain, so anthropos,

beyond a work of art,

seeking out, without a doubt,

all objects, known or not,

discovering the shortest route,

hastening the plot

where it must slam into a jamb,

surprising you or me,

or smash its head just like a ram,

then unsurprisingly

send instantly the Nth degree

of pain up to our brain,

emitting screams and bursting seams—

relief, itself, in vain.

They abide on either side,

well-knowing what’s in store;

unless they’re lost (a dreadful cost)

we know we’re in for more.
