Thursday Overcoming Fear
If you wander too far from home, she'll snatch you up and take into the swamp. If you misbehave we'll leave you at Swamp's Edge for her. She'll turn you into a rat, use you in her magic. Or steal your soul, make you work for her. And if you're really bad, she'll open wide her jaw and gobble you up. That's what they say anyway.
Sticks and stones she tells herself. And the stones only hurt a little. And don't bruise very often.
They whisper. They stare. Some of them even point.
Still, Mammy braves the journey into town.
