The day after Samhain...
The world is a different place to me today. Not in a loooong time had I practiced the mystic arts in even any remote sense of it's ritual word. This time the gloves were off. Rather than spend time with the amateurs of all Hallows, I chose to stay inside and do the work for what the holiday was meant for. That spooky feeling you got on Halloween? That was us. The endarkened. The movers...The communicators... The conduits of the underworld. For everyone needs to make a sacrifice.
One thing I always hated about halloween... Is that even though it's a creepy chilling night that brings me giddy glee, it's really full of posers. Those people who dress in costumes as what they are not... They annoy me. Like the woman who thinks that dressing like a witch is to dress gothic. Meanwhile they laugh at you because you ARE gothic or Metal or mystically inclined. And when asked to know what bands she likes, she tells you "Britney Spears is my idol! Oh my costume?...hee hee hee... I just wanted to dress funky like a witch for Halloween. Hee hee hee!"
MAN! That makes me twitch." What are you?" You ask. "Oh....heh... I'm like this dark sorcerer dude... Heh... I thought it would be fun!"
Ok...Dressing like Yoda or Neo and stuff like that...characters from film? Fine. But when you start making costumes that reflect other peoples real life? Mildly annoying. Now the obvious are acceptable. The green faced, wart nosed witch...Ok, so they watched the Wizard of OZ one too many times. I can understand that. But dressing like a vague attempt at Morticia and not even pulling it off correctly, irks me. I'm sure those of you reading that are endarkened understand as well.
Enough about that. The morining after and beyond, I felt surges in my psyche I thought long dormant. Mind and spirit are forming into a weapon and a tool. Body is following. All will culminate to a glorious machine.
Yet, while I ses the world through newly endarkened eyes... I can only fathom whats next! Like a new found friend...I wander of into the future a new man...prepared to finish what he started as the millenial prophet.
