The Monster Up On Specter Hill

Share

On the darkest point atop specter hill
lay a ruined monster, the destroyer of the mill
one day a boy went and found the monster alone
visible by moonlight, the beast fully shown
" Hello boy, may I call you a name? "
He said nothing " Ah, they are always the same. "
so the monster sat and shivered in the grass
and the boy kept watching, letting the hours pass
" What are you waiting for? " the boy asked past four
and the beast reflected " I do not know. I have never been sure. "
" If you want you can sit with me. " it said with a pat
and the boy sat at a distance " I expected that. "
As the sun began to raise the boy began to leave it be
" Before you go, perhaps there is something you can promise me? "
" Come back again, No one comes anymore these days. "
" Maybe I will, if the warmth find's sun rays. "
" You're rather kind for a monster, if that is fair game. "
" That's because I'm not a monster. I'm alone all the same. "
