I’m Not a Competitive Person

Pumpkin carving

Has never been fun

Seeds and bits between

Fingers and thumbs

Trying to carve with a very sharp knife

Horrific things will cross your mind

Wanting to smash the pumpkin

Through a window

Or a door

Throw it down

With all your might at the floor

Stab the monstrosity with whatevers in your hand

Kick it like a football

Where will it land?

Good job you bought the last 4 from Tesco

Suffocate your screams with a Hello Kitty pillow

Innocent eyes

The pumpkin cries

“Please spare me

From this brutal demise”
