Monsters
There are many types of monsters that scare me.
Monsters who cause trouble without showing themselves
Monsters who abduct children
Monsters who devour dreams
Monsters who suck blood… and then, monsters who tell nothing but lies.
Lying monsters are a real nuisance: They are much more cunning than others.
They pose as humans even though they have no understanding of the human heart;
They eat even though they’ve never experienced hunger;
They study even though they have no interest in academics;
They seek friendship even though they do not know how to love.
If I were to encounter such monsters, I would likely be eaten by them
because in truth,
I am that monster.
