Another Monster

2-27-11 12:42 p.m.

There it stands

Looming

Shadows

We raise our swords

To cut its throat

But nothing penetrates

The endless skin

We slash

We scream

But nothing prevails

And it swipes its claw

Right at me

And I fall

And you stand

Trying again

But then it swipes

And you dodge

And run away

Saving yourself
