"Monsters"

 


"Monsters"
Greg Budig 2020

There are no such things 

as monsters, I guess 

that should be said.

Because the only real 

monsters are the ones 

inside your head. 

 

So there are no giant 

spiders that are crawling

across the floor. 

And there is no bearded 

monkey hanging on 

your closet door!


The noises that you 

hear at night aren't 

creatures in the wall. 

It's just the furnace 

starting up, or your cat

running down the hall. 


But you say there is a

monster! A monster 

that you dread!

The one that keeps 

you up all night and 

lives beneath your bed!



So if you got your 
nerve up and took a 
look down there. 
You just might find a 
pair of socks, or your 
brothers underwear!!


No monsters in 

the hallway. No 

monsters I can see. 

No monsters underneath 

your bed, this house 

is monster free!!


No use to look for 

Frankenstein, or the 

mummy in his tomb. 

It's just the monster movie

posters that are plastered

around your room!


So I guess there are 

no monsters. That 

much I know is true. 

Because the only 

monsters I know of are 

the ones inside of you!


The End
