October 31, Nothing
By: Aviantei
Across the nation, all the kids prepare themselves for the thrills and chills they can only experience for once a year. Here, in between surroundings of sand, sun, and void, those things occur on this day, as they do every day, and no one bats an eye.
Don't think twice about the monsters, the conspiracy theories, or the nonexistent angels. This is their home, there is no need to be rude, no need to be afraid. Let the five-headed dragon run for your mayoral office without objection; the secret police have enough to worry about without trouble being caused over such trivial things.
For every day is Halloween here, even if there is no such word on the calendar to commemorate such a thing. Drop the pretense for celebration, forget your science on the way in, and say hello to your double as he passes you by.
I am in no way a poet. I feel like that needs to be made clear.
I actually wrote this for a creative writing class on Halloween, so... happy slightly late Halloween, everyone.
