Monsters

A laughingstock, the talk of the town,
they spun rumors to bring her down.
Wove webs of lies to block her path,
watched her cry so they might laugh.
The outcast, who never went home,
he learned to have a heart of stone.
Told him he was the one to blame,
he grew up flirting with shame.
A small child staring at the sky,
fearing what, not knowing why.
The handle turns in a drunken rage,
the innocent caught in a cage.
The perfect girl, envied by all,
won't ever let her smile fall.
Only hears what her parents say:
that she's still worthless anyway.
Close your eyes, get some air,
sometimes life just isn't fair.
Even watching with guarded eyes,
some monsters take you by surprise.

It is not monsters you should worry about, but, PHANTASMS ! I've seen the film. It tells you something. Then, there are ENTITIES which envelope you, using you in all manner of ways, for their amusement.
YOU, HAVE TO BE CAREFUL. Grasp reality. Perceive and evaluate all threat. Or, you, might not live to regret, it. :) :)
You, know I only jest. " If, it bleeds, you can kill it. " That, will make you, and others....happy ? There is only so much you can take, you know. :) Comfortable, and safe, is preferred to a " fright-fest " or " f..k-fest " !! Surely ?
You, don't want ugly domineering " critters, " or " creatures, " to remove your freedom. Do you ? Having free will is nice. Transported to another place, of darkness, rather than light, can be disturbing. In the extreme. I am assured you realize. :)
Passionate response to dangerous invasion of a secluded secure world makes avid reading. And, can be " metaphorically " protective. You, need to know your enemy. Inside, and out. :) Neat work.
TAKE CARE. Especially in those locations where " things " can " BITE, YOUR HEAD OFF " !! Just saying. Hope you appreciate, this. Whatever, you may perceive, IT, to be. :)
P.S. Do not forget PHANTOMS. ( :) ) Another film to gorge, the appetite. They, can be particularly nasty. I must relay to you. You, do not want to meet them.... " up, a dark alley " !! :)
