[HOL V] Yuletide Horrors

Thule is the closest humans have come to achieving beauty on a cosmic level. It is our communion with the divine, our temporary solace in the light of Nirvana before being returned to the warm churn of Samsara. It is sacred.

Yellow is vulgar. It is Krimibhojana, the destination of those who eat their food alone without sharing with guests, elders, and children. It is a lake filled with worms devouring worms devouring worms.

Hack-o-lantern is a time to confront horror. The profaning of our personal divinities is foundational to our modern understanding of the concept - and I could think of nothing so maliciously beautiful as letting the shambling beasts in to the temple to feast.

Besides maybe playing barf, but that's a bridge too far.
