it was the perfect night

for the

corn maze terror

9 of us went in

3 of us made it

all the way through

hangnail moon

chilling  wind

corn up to the sky

eerily waving us in

dark silo in the back

watching it all

and

scary things

so many terrifying things

all along the way

walking out of the corn

and

standing behind us

and

calling our names

and

chasing us

 scary pic of me hiding in the corn

right at the beginning – excited and scared both

we ran

we startled

we got lost

we shrieked

we fell

we ran more

we tried to

clutch onto each other

 sometimes to strangers

yelled our lungs out

and

somehow

made it to the end

a little bit braver

and

for at least one of us

a lot more scared

than when we went in.

a true knight is fuller of bravery in the midst,

than in the beginning of danger.
