The Bad-Apples

Writer's picture: Darkling ThrushesDarkling Thrushes

You'll find one or two if you look,

At the bottom of the barrel.

Just leave them alone, we're making

Candy-apples for Halloween, right?

So they're no good. I feared extremely,

Some were pears, we'll find-out later,

When I bring-out the hose and clean,

That barrel out once and for all.

Here's what we do: wrap 'em in these

Carmel sheets, spear 'em with these sticks,

Put 'em to cook, in the ovens,

Then, when they're melted and burned,

Put them in the freezer for half

An hour, until the kids arrive

For the Halloween Party, right?
