"Each line is made up of 17 syllables, making each line a Monoku"  

Listen to poem:
I could watch a horror movie; but, only if you would hold my hand As all the scary bits would frighten me, I hope you can understand And you would have to stay a few days until it was out of my head Be the action hero and check for the monsters underneath my bed Readily accept calls in the middle of night; I'm having more frights Fact it would be better if you came over stay for a few more nights Can't sleep another night without you; without you, I can't recover Besides, it would be just another nightmare moving in with mother Yeah, just another horror story moving in with mother . . "Mother"
