You'll think me rude,
But I will just stand there"

I decided to try a Themed Day. I have an Appalachian Horror playlist, a podcast about the movie Wrong Turn (hillbilly horror) and an Appalachian horror audiobook called Revelator by Daryl Gregory.

I ate
The fancy peanuts
That skitter under cabinets
When the lights come on
So crunchy
And delicious
I need to sleep
But the lights are off
And I feel them all around
Their peanutty goodness
