All Hallow's Eve

Dear Halloween,

You've changed.

It's like all you care about anymore is

over-the-top party decorations

and food that looks like

it's not food anymore.

And wait,

what are we celebrating, again?

Oh, you don't have a good answer?

That's what I thought.

Call me back

when celebrating you means

burning old crops,

wearing animal heads and skins,

telling each others' fortunes,

and trying to divine the name of my future husband.

Until then,

I'm just here for the candy.

Love,

Rachel
