The Monster's Lament
I too would be angry
If I were cowered away from
In the way which humans
Treat monsters
Like they are so scared
What have they done to you
Except in myths and fables
No proof at all than is mere fantasy
Yet you block them out
I would too be evil
If I were left in solitude
In a closet or under a bed, trapped
The way you all treat monsters
Makes a case in my head
That the monsters aren’t the evil ones at all
Maybe they were just never given a chance
And already underwent the glare of civilization
Cast away as if they were of no worth
No, your mind is closed
Screw you,
Bigots.
