If that girls our first treater, I dont want to see her face, all right? Not yet, okay? Id prefer about anything else to look at so I check my sneaks and sitting right there is that shriveled ass jackolantern nobody had the decency to chuck. Its how Midget left it with duck tape over the holes to keep her pumpkin bug friends locked inside. But the air out here has me thinking clear. What the hells little sister doing? If youve got friends, you cant be sealing them up. You got to let them escape your sorry ass pumpkin world.

I lift my snowboot and smash. Orange guts go blasting. I stomp till its flat and bugs are scrambling off like theyre lifted. Theyre free now to live their stupid bug lives and it was the right thing to do but that doesnt mean Im not sad. Moms bought this pumpkin for me and now that its squashed it reminds me a Moms worse than ever. Am I even gonna see Moms and her bedsore ass after tonight? No, Jody, dont think on that. You think on that too long and you end up in a room without any color except the beautiful papers your best bitch mails you.

The trick or treat girls clopping up the walk now. Theres no dodge to be had. This is my thing now. I own it. I whisper to myself the best bull I can and it comes out like a prayer, like Dick Trickle got his God stuff stuffed inside my brain. Prayer goes something like how each a the children thatll be swallowing our candies has a soul, right? Maybe I can catch them souls to plug up the holes I have inside me that normal kids dont have. And maybe thats some selfish ass behavior. But who knows whats right or wrong when it come to souls. No way it can be good letting them go to waste.

Doesnt matter much in the end cuz when I get brave enough to look I see the girl isnt no trick or treater anyhow. This shorty here I recognize easy as pie even though shes sporting a costume that cant hardly even be believed.

The Fly

The Fly

It happens all the time in movies. Some boys tuxedoed up and waiting to take his ho to prom and all of a sudden she shows up at the top a the stairs so banging the camera has to slow way down so we can appreciate the dress and the shoes and the hair and the face and the tits and the booty and everything. Its a super magical moment.
