It's my gnarly monster Growing steadily inside me Munching on my spirit Dripping in chaos and anarchy
My stubborn monster Likes to play dead Still and quiet Like the insides of my head
My pudgy monster Reeks of sadness and uncertainty Hiding in cubby holes of panic Playing with my insecurities
My elusive monster Is my mind's favorite pet Like the dog who eats your homework Never ending source of excuses and an ever present threat.
