I hope you enjoy this Spooky Metaphor Poem I'm posting for Halloween. It is similar to Mystery Metaphor Poems in that the reader guesses the subject of the poem. Good luck!

A ravenous snake
Winds through the town
A head of bright eyes
And a darting tongue

Leads the beast
Down every street
Door by door
The monster eats

Until the sky
Is deepest black
And it's devoured
Every snack

Then back again
Each coil revolves
And as it turns
Seems to dissolve

And merge with darkness
Disappear
Not to be seen
Until next year
