Scary stories told around fires

Are extravagant details

To grasp attention.

But the scariest story is in plain sight.

Nobody wants to tell that story

And maybe it’s a fear of it being stolen.

Or maybe it’s the fear

Of knowing it word for word.

So tell those stories

Of monsters and witchcraft

Or anything to keep you sane.

The blame is on them

For whatever goes wrong.

A blessing in disguise.

For if monsters were men

And witches were women,

It would only be a retelling of the day.
