Embrace the Strange

Among the changing leaves The pumpkins, the corn, the scarecrows Something different came along something we didn't understand They frightened us, these new things They were bizarre, weird, creepy To cope with this, we made a label We called them "monsters" In our fear of the strange We couldn't see the obvious That what we thought were monsters were just people who were different So embrace the strange Because they're not monsters They're just different And different doesn't have to be scary
