Individuals: Part 4

in this the Halloween season, Samhain to some and other's to such, my being comes into question most frequently. Ghostly shapes and macabre scenes fill the streets and remind me of how far I have come and how far people have yet to go. At these days of harvest I am monster. I am bloodthirsty and a killer and a romantic lead. I am a myth...

I see myself as I am. I am proud and yes, even feral at times. What is funny is how many people think that we cannot be seen or captured upon film. For some, the fact that I can proves the ignorance of man, and for them, that I do not exist and am merely a fanatic. Pictures and videos will assuredly capture whatever goofy pose we ape to get our kids or yours to chuckle. We love a good laugh and love to bring them out in others as we are not so serious as one would have. There are things that are of a grave nature but not to you, just to us. Like the "graceful" walk we hold as explained in the last article. We do most everything with an "all in" mentality and when we pull away it is with an all in feel to it too.

I have mirrors in my home and invite any vain human to come and enjoy them. I have no need for I know what I am and am most comfortable in my own skin as to not require them excepting rare occasions. There is no need to fix my hair or makeup as I wear the latter rarely and can most easily put up my hair without the aid of a mirror. My looks matter not on most occasions as I am not here to impress as much as impress upon the minds of. I am living and breathing and of flesh and bone, only I require different things than you. I am flattered by the attention given my species but would be quite as easily flattered given it's end too. Today I will enjoy a little football, some good wine, a few horror flicks tucked under the sheet with my kid and popcorn. My day is beginning and will be quiet as I let the posers take the stage. For now I am quite content in wearing my seasonal costume and behaving like you, human, for I get the pleasure of being ME the other 364 days of the year! Feel free to stop by and snap a pic or grab a cup and have a chat...it will be dark inside our home and scary movies will be on but I assure you you will be safe and sound, not a hair harmed...or will you? Muah hahahaha hah!! ~ mobe's best wishes for a spectacular Halloween, her love to you all and her all to her loves!
