The angel uses both hands to adjust the witches hat.
The witch plucks a feather from the angel’s wing and hands it to the poet.
The poet consults the witch — and the angel — before beginning the day’s poem.
Happy Halloween!
If human beings had genuine courage, they’d wear their costumes every day of the year, not just on Halloween.
~Douglas Coupland
“Fear,” the doctor said, “is the relinquishing of reasonable patterns. We yield to it or we fight it, but we cannot meet it halfway.”
~Shirley Jackson, The Haunting of Hill House

not
even
sure

Happy Hallowe’en! (Let the tricks keep on coming!)
