What A Happy Birthday
Christine Stoddard
A cake crowns the table
and a woman looks in fear
as demons jump in the icing.
Foam dresses their mouths
as they jig and shriek,
but she is the only witness
to their supreme evil.
They taunt no other
party guest at the table
because they would never
believe that they haunt
all that delights eating beings.
