Nothing to Fear

a mystical cryptic message appeared on Aunt M’s mirror
the meaning was abysmally hidden, hazy, clearly unclear
after a frenzied séance, the mystery message was heightened
Most of the guests left terrified, thoroughly frightened

you see balls of light and fire were thrown into their hair
One of them tripped and fell down at least one stair
There was a supernatural laugh that came from the mirror
Nothing to fear, the soothsayer said “please come back here!”
