MONSTER POEM

MONSTER POEM

I can see it the wall

it’s rough skin

simulates the toughness of steel

its speed equivalent

to the shrill heart rat

of it’s

unfortunate prey

it haunts my bedroom

like a ghost but

more threatening

for it can walk on walls

like a stealthy

cat burglar

its razor sharp teeth

able to devour insects

as if they were innocent

fleeing people

its deadly tongue

shoots out like a bullet

at any sign of a hopeless

victim

for it’s senses match

the nose of a German Shepherd

sniffing down a crime scene

this deadly creature

has many enemies

but none can challenge

the sheer ferocity

of this reptilian

deathtrap

it has no or shant

need

any claws to

rip it

those who dare defy

it limb from

limb like

a cheetah

devouring an

elephant

it has

no trouble

leaving its horrible

crushing

dark

rocky den

to terrorize its enemies

like a horrible denizen of

the deep approaching

a dazed

man on a

tube 

  hot climates aren’t

the only place you’ll find this beast

you’ll also

find it

IN

YOUR

NIGHTMARES
