So to celebrate this day of mothers, I thought i’d share my love to them all with a story called Why Mothers are scary.
Mothers are scary, which a lot of you have forgotten, but we remember. That’s why we hide under the bed, in the closet, or in your shoes in the shapes of spiders. All us know that while you may scare a child, you mustn’t make them cry, because that’s when the mothers come. They will drag you screaming from your supposed safe place amongst the dark and dust, and no one will be scared of you again. They like to watch us suffer because we steal their children’s dreams, making them dark, dangerous, and very delicious. We have heard that some have lost their mothers, although we dare not slither and slide from the cracks in the walls in case it is a trick, concocted in the most dangerous mind known to our kind. So we hide, and we pray, and wait for the end of another terrifying mothers day.
