Well this spunky spirit is all tuckered out,
From one amazing All Hallows’ Ball, without doubt.
It was an epic evening, and immense ado,
But the epoch of the event was unequivocally you!
On behalf of your honored hosts, ever faithful,
A huge Thank You to you all. We are truly grateful!
I’m so excited! It’s finally here:
The most provocative party of the entire year!
Lights, costumes, music, dancing: a spectacular sight!
See you all at DYSTOPIA this Saturday night!
The All Hallows’ Ball is a feast for the eyes, to be sure,
And professional photogs will be prowling the floor,
Snapping shots of wildest costumes envisioned,
(That is, of course, with your permission.)
You will get a card when your photo is caught,
With instructions to access each of your shots.
After the party, pics will be posted online
For you to order sweet memories of your amazing time.
Since digital cameras and smart phones abound,
Your likeness will likely be acquired all around.
Guests will snap pics of your beautiful faces,
And you may be posted, unknowingly, in virtual spaces.
So if it’s a sense of discretion you desire,
Be sure your costume provides the privacy you require.
For the rest of you show-offs: Smile and say cheese.
Expose, strike a pose for as many photos as you please.
Ladies and gentlemen, I’m proud to present
A preeminent performance for your premier event.
A sultry seductress to sizzle the scene.
Two action-packed acts (with tons of fun tucked between).
Turn your eyes to the stage and get ready to shout,
As the delicious Miss Amy DeMilo turns it out.
With the All Hallows’ Ball coming soon,
Some guests may question the best costume.
How does one aim to gain notoriety,
In this dystopian society?
Read your invitation to find some clues,
For characters and ideas that you can use.
Go bold and brazen, or be a bit cryptic,
But remember to think Post-Apocalyptic.
Apply the tattoo that came with your invitation,
Or incorporate the symbol into your own creation.
Don’t forget the costume contest,
To assess who’s who of the best dressed.
Judges will keep a close eye on the doors,
Selecting stunners and assigning scores.
So whatever frock you opt to rock,
Be creative and give ‘em all you got!
The All Hallows’ Ball is just a few weeks away,
And time is running out to book a place to stay.
This is the last week to receive the discounted rate,
At the select local hotels, so don’t hesitate!
Hotel discounts end 9/27
Check your mail, my friend, for you should have received,
Your official invitation for All Hallows’ Eve.
Look carefully: inside you will find a small bonus,
A symbol to signify a weird new world is upon us.
Emblazon your body with this derelict sign,
Or incorporate it into your costume design.
For you clever few who picked up on the clues,
You are true All Hallows’ Ball fans through and through
For the rest of you, thanks for giving it your all!
Here are the keys to decode them, now that you know the theme for the ball.
The homepage itself was a little bit gritty.
Beneath the symbol stood a decimated city.
The video included several hints for deduction:
The fire the most obvious, suggesting destruction.
The tagline, of course clearly indicates,
The theme would take place in a future time and place.
The symbol was once a biohazard sign,
That was exposed to devastation, distorting the design.
A meticulous observer with eyes that are keen,
Would note even the font was from a derelict machine.
And finally, the blog post (so clear, you must have said “Voila!”)
The first letter of each lined spelled out DYSTOPIA!
Congrats if you guessed it, but even if you did not,
It was fun teasing you, and I’m glad you gave it a shot.
But enough of this nonsense. The party is finally upon us.
Get ready for DYSTOPIA! This year is sure to astonish!
I just saw the invitation and you are not going to believe
The theme for this year’s All Hallows’ Eve!
The impressive idea is delightfully disturbing,
With high hopes your presence will be equally perturbing.
Look carefully, as there will be something extra included:
A reference to the madness previously alluded.
A wee little gift to illustrate your affiliation,
With the magnificent opulence of this prodigious occasion.
To ensure delivery, take a moment to inspect
Your emails to confirm your contact info is correct.
If not, click here so you can amend,
Cause this is definitely a party you’ll want to attend.
Despite my attempts at deception and misconstruction,
You deserve commendation for your powers of deduction.
Some of you were close, but most missed my hint,
To the theme for this year’s exciting event.
Of course I shouldn’t say much more, however I
Promised to provide you with clues, and I never lie.
If you look closely, I’ve revealed something more,
About the astonishing extravaganza we have in store.
