This is amusing !!
Finished
The poem I must compose
At the time that He rose
He comes every Halloween
Time to praise The Mad King
Kneel before His great might
As He appears in the night
Human dress up as a monster
All to praise for your Master
Rule He has over all that's dark
All must bow before His mark
"Trick or Treat" the humans laugh
Give Him more, it's not enough
Legend, Myth all are lost
At this Hollyday He is host
But be careful of His plague
The Mad King is back
He'll be gone at New Year's eve
When there's nothing more to give
But heed my warning, for next year
He'll be back to spread the fear

As the King rose once more from the dead,
he only wants to see them scared as he will be fully fed,
"the time has come" as exactly he said,
for he is back so you can't go to bed.
He strikes with terror,
as he shows with pure horror,
if he sees you he will crush your core,
so don't open the door.
He is everywhere,
he is anywhere,
and a wrath you can't bare.
But you can't hide,
for he is right there,
to strike for your despair.
He comes every year,
to tear,
peoples' souls apart,
as if he was playing death of dart,
but you can't see him in the dark,
He is death, place your wreath,
because they say he's just a myth,
but he'll come and crush your skull!,
as if he was playing a doll.
Hiding in the cabinet so the mad king does not see you?
oh you failed? poor you,
be scared, everything is not gonna be alright,
so just go hide in your pants on midnight,
and until you see the sunlight.

Oh Mad King of yore
How I now beseech you
Outside your hellish throne I wait
And dare to seek and reach you
For you flayer, you satyr
You the mad king, ruin creator
Hold for me the admiration
In my dedication that I hold for you.
Your power and your mind
In one combine, entwined
With everlasting worship
From one before a king divine
So warmonger, you hunger?
If you should stay your hand no longer
Surely all of man would fall before
A mighty power stronger
Right before their eyes
Right before they realize
Who their better is before them
Guiding them to walk, nay run
Into Hell's door before them
Never to see the light of day
Not to any lord they pray
So god-breaker, life taker
From your slumber now awaken
Show the mortal realm their sins
Let them know fear and taste it
From you the start, where it begins
Leader of the sanguine cause
Of haughty flames and spirits lost
Set forth death amongst the weak
And let them cower from the din
Of the screams from one another
Languish only if they dare to win
Still, their lives are yours to sunder

Done! xD
Ah, mon cher, for anyone who is weak, without MadKing
and without a master, the weight of days is dreadful.
But to me nothing - the negative,
Madking is exceedingly powerful.
It is not possible to eat me without insisting
that I sing praises of my devourer?
We are all apprentices in a craft where
no one ever becomes a master.
You cannot control what happens to you,
but you can control your attitude toward what happens to you,
and in that, you will be mastering change
rather than allowing it to master you.
Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing,
doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before.
Silences between movements are employed only in order
to bring the opposing duo to the fore.
All that's necessary for the forces of evil to win in
the world is for enough good men to do nothing.
False words are not only evil in themselves,
but they infect the soul with evil.
In the night of death, hope sees a star,
and listening can hear the rustle of a wing.
He that is kind is free, though he is a slave;
he that is evil is a slave, though he be a Madking.
and without a master, the weight of days is dreadful.

Last wip,I WILL GET LAST PLACE SO FEAR ME!
This guy Mad King
Awakens every Halloween!
He searches for servant's,
he even like's poem's!
He lives in a underground dungeon,
The lava and fire make the light
in the place,give him candy or you
will get a bite or a hard fight!
In every year Halloween!
He says "Fear me mortal's"!
If we don't give him what he desires
He will open the dark portal's!
Give him chocolate,sweet's and gum!
Give him everything so he will leave us alone!
He can burn us with his thumb...
Tremble before him!
He spit's fire,
he lead's alot of armies
he even lead's The Dire!
Just tremble before him mortal's!
No chance I can win with my miserable brain ._.

The day is over, the night is up,
All are in awe, 'cause nothing can stop
Him, who awakened fast from the past,
Mad King, who can grind all the mortals to dust!
You mortals, show some respect to him
Or be destroyed by a dark beam
Coming out from the King to cleanse
Beings that hide from him in the dens.
Bow to his power and limitless mind
He has the strength you will never find.
Nothing can challenge the very mad King:
He needs some servants for himself to bring.
Halloween night is special for him:
He can awake and we'll sing this as hymn.
Bow to his power, might and be good,
So the King will never use you as his food.

Listen up mortals, for I have chosen the winners!
This Da Fist, he is a true writer and knows my powers too well,
Killd0zer knows very well how to charm me with his soothing word-choice,
Gen Bloodhorn, finally, impressed me slightly with his short poem, but I expected more!
To all the others, you have severely failed me, but these 3, these collegues of yours, have truly mastered your petty language.
