The Monster

The girl shrieked
the cameras recoiled
and then
came forward
to eat.
No one had to look up
Because there was
no one left.
There was just…
Feeding.
And there was no way
to ever get back again.
Everything had been…
Consumed.
The mothers knew better
but the knowing was not
accessible to them.
They had sealed it
Cauterized
with the pain of mortality
and reality of chaos.
The fathers knew better
but most were afraid
of the mothers
and were not strong enough
to hold.
I don’t know if I am strong enough to hold.
The biggest monster
has been revealed
and he…
HE
is hungry.
