Goodnight Kisses

There is a monster under my bed with its big, bulging eyes it snarls at me until I withdraw my head from the side of the bed and pull the covers up over myself. There is a monster in my closet with its wet, frothing mouth it hisses at me until I shut the doors so I can see it no more and tuck myself back in to bed. There is a monster outside my room with his beer in his hand he approaches me until he is done and he believes he has won and I cry myself back to sleep.
