US Celebration. Call Me Old-Fashioned




Call me old-fashioned

Disgusted I am how Americanised Australia has become

Halloween rubbish from the profit-driven
nation crossing our borders

It started with complete misuse of the English language
creeping in and Valentine’s Day in the 70’s

Surprised and concerned parents allow children
to walk the streets and knock from door to door for Halloween

My dad would be turning in his grave

I just like playing round with words. And having fun
