Monsters

Monsters should look like monsters....
But most don't. 
I mean, some will actually 
warn you that they're monsters, 
But generally... most won't. 
Instead... you see
People you like,
People you love,
People you trust.
People you have fun with.
People you lust.
And, that's why I firmly support, 
Burning a BIG ASS M
onto their forehead. 
One that never heals,  
stays infected, 
and maybe drips Green Puss.
Because , 
we need a better way to identify 
these muhas.
A registration.... 
A muhin Monsters are Us.... 
& Let heartbroken mothers, 
& traumatized kids decide, 
who gets on the bus.... 
to ship these muhas, 
to wherever the , 
monsters need to go.
Let the victims make those choices.  
Give them a chance, 
to exorcize their fear silenced voices. 
It'll be a whole ass mess...
Because it's a whole lot of stress.
And, how it doesn't kill folks, 
is anyone's guess. 
And Psssstttt, 
if you haven't been through it, 
be a dear, and say less.
Go debate it with ya mammy, 
Because, I'm standing by what I said.
Monsters should look like monsters. 
Straight facts. No gest.
