Giants and Beasts

Audrey Brumley

We tend to lean on the unnatural
The unbelievable and mythical
Because it’s easier to be irrational
And hope on a miracle

Flipping through pages
Discarding reality
We watch fairies on stages
People thrive in abnormality

These tales of giants and beasts
Have been told for centuries
It’s where the past and present meet
And it creates beautiful memories

But life won’t always be that way
Even though we want it to
We can’t make fairytales stay
There is life we still must go through
