Challenge
Write a horror story in two sentences.
“The 3 types of terror: The Gross-out: the sight of a severed head tumbling down a flight of stairs, it's when the lights go out and something green and slimy splatters against your arm. The Horror: the unnatural, spiders the size of bears, the dead waking up and walking around, it's when the lights go out and something with claws grabs you by the arm. And the last and worse one: Terror, when you come home and notice everything you own had been taken away and replaced by an exact substitute. It's when the lights go out and you feel something behind you, you hear it, you feel its breath against your ear, but when you turn around, there's nothing there...”---Stephen King

put a muzzle on it
Ultimately I control myself.
But life is quite a beast to try and tame.
I am chained down by sad thoughts.
Mirrors don't seem to reflect beauty.
Life does not control me, but it manipulates the way I experience the world.
My eyes have been blind to the natural wonder that is my body.
I have been deaf to all the positive words spoken.
Life has yet to let me taste the flavors of confidence and happiness.
Today I have discovered that though I am chained, I also have the keys.
And that the mirror has only been in need of cleaning.
Do not let life's bark frighten you.
You are the only one that decides how its bite affects you.
So put a muzzle on it.
