Nice To Eat You
By Jonathan Sellars
I am the monster under your bed,
I live at the end right under your head,
Each night as you lie in the dark on your own,
Always remember that you’re not alone.
I’m there just beneath you,
Sharpening my claws,
Picking past victims from out of my jaws.
When will I eat you?
When the time’s right,
Which may,
Or may not,
Be sometime tonight.
The End (for you is soon)
The Midnight Run
By Jonathan Sellars
I need a wee,
But it’s too dark to see,
And I know they’re all out there,
And they’re all watching me.
I turn on the night light,
I check all around,
But they hide out of sight,
And they don’t make a sound.
I creep from my bed,
Out into the hall,
And search for the light switch
High up on the wall.
As fast as I can,
For the chase has begun,
Along to the toilet
I run and I run.
I slam the door shut,
On goes the light,
I see how my hands
Are both shaking with fright.
I do what I need to
As impending doom
Tells me I’ll never
Get back to my room.
I sprint as they chase me,
Heavy with dread,
Yet somehow I make it
And leap into bed.
Under the covers
I’m safe as can be,
But I know they’re still out there,
And they’re still watching me.
