Monsters Poems
Don't look under the bed
by Dorothy Eleanor
Every child reaches the age
When their thoughts need no consent.
When hearts twist and writhe,
Simple encounters evoke torment.
Days pass as moments,
Slipping through the tightest of grips;
Youth kisses sweet time goodbye
With soft, selfish lips.

This thing that is our family
by meredith best
This thing that is our family
It’s alive like a monster
Only comes out at night
It is selfish
And sucks your blood
It is little bodies that become you
It is your mother’s turkey soup
And walks along the dike
It is strength i have never known before
Ingenious in its creativity and resource

Wisdom from the Mouths of Monsters
by Alex Rose
If monsters have mouths
Then what do they spout?
Is it truth that rebounds
Through their teeth?
If monsters have lungs
That means that they've sung
All the songs that one hears
In the deep.
