Have a little Hell to salt your Heaven,
A dash of horror in your well-whipped cream.
Love and joy are not all you've been given.
Let some unsavory nightmare spice your dream!
Open up your long-sealed inner dungeon
Wherein you keep the monsters of your heart.
Enjoy one midnight just a rare smoked smidgeon,
Exquisite taste of what you are, in part,
Night shades for your culinary art!
