Happy Halloween

Der Flügelflagel gaustert
durchs Wiruwaruwolz,
die rote Fingur plaustert
und grausig gutzt der Golz.

Christian Morgenstern: “Gruselett” – from Galgenlieder (Gallows Songs), 1905

The Winglewangle phlutters
through widowadowood,
the crimson Fingoor splutters
and scary screaks the Scrood.
