This poem is based on a cartoon by Joe Lennon. The link to it deserves to be mentioned: http://facebook.com/photo?fbid=3875365339159051&set=a.347820785246875 And this cartoon (shared by Rock Jocelyn) features a witch (green like a goblin).

People must vote especially when woke. It’s a way to say nope to what’s scarier than a ghost.
