It was cold when we were born
From the dark to the light
Zero degrees outside, we cried to stay inside
Then cooed at the first steamy breaths
Blood pumping hot and fierce
Icy moon eyes

Halloween
As usual, the summer went by way too quickly. But October is a wonderful month. I mean, you got the leaves changing color, bonfires, and of course, Halloween.
Halloween is definitely one of the best holidays. It’s a holiday you can celebrate no matter how old you are, and I think more fun can be had as an adult. You can drink, eat candy, and dress up as whatever you want.
During the weeks leading up to Halloween, you get to binge on scary movies! If you’re a reader, I hope you check out Washington Irving’s The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, Bram Stoker’s Dracula, and anything by H.P. Lovecraft. Really fun books and stories to devour during a month when there is more night than day, and the cold creeps in.
Now, I think I’ll cozy up in bed, prowl the internet for a (warm) costume, and put one of these movies on in the background!
