Carefully choosing every strand
with due regard to festivity and flash
they don apparel for the occasion
quick to rejoice in joyous celebration
of that which comes at the end

Amazing colors contrast with black
mesmerizing displays of interwoven
webs and glow
late at night they gather
despite how cold the wind may blow

Nothing can stop the ceremony
of revelry, tradition, and chance
who knows what at each door
fate will bring to your hands

Does one dash door to door,
or simply stop and wait?
for some pursuits end in laughter
while others your appetite sate

Inside some doors are darkness
residence vacant and silent
just be sure as you dash door to door
that yours is most reliant

Candy is good, and sugar is sweet
but bitter the aftertaste
of what you ate all at once
no time to appreciate

Everything comes to an end
but some are better than others
if you're unwise, you may end up like
the trick you played on others

Instead,
Live large
Opportunity:
Veiled
Everyday
You
Only
Understand (it)
