I Must Type This Sentence to Keep the Monsters at Bay

I must type this sentence to keep the monsters at bay, 

I saw them in the corner of my eye one day, 

And ever since then I’ve been slaving away. 

I must type this sentence to keep the monsters at bay, 

They’re so tall,

And I feel so small.

Their teeth twist and turn with malice glee, 

When they stalk me so joyfully.

I must type this sentence to keep the monsters at bay, 

I am all alone at night, you see? 

And typing this story keeps me company, 

Now that you know of the monsters too, 

I don’t know if they will harm you, 

But fear not, 

There’s nothing wrong with wanting a story for your pen to jot. 

If you see a tall blurry mess of tangled, lanky limbs, 

Open up a notebook, and grab a pen, 

And write this sentence until your end.
