Poetry Day: Predators Around

Posted on May 1, 2025 by Charles Yallowitz

(This is a fun one.  What kind of predator do you think I mean?)

The monsters are out in force
Growing hungry by the minute
Searching for the weak and young
To fill their putrid guts

 

The monsters’ courage bloats
Growing fearless month by month
Searching for more meat and bone
To crunch within their fangs

 

The monsters’ have another goal
Growing greedy for its warmth
Searching for fans to watch their crime
To revel in their evil acts

 

The monsters do not think ahead
Growing worse with every brood
Searching for the wrong type of fame
To become the gods of evil

    One guess is people who build a platform based on what they hate—books, TV shows, and movies. They will not write a book or a script. They will only trash the works of others. I saw many people discuss their hate for shows. They watched entire seasons of these shows just so they could talk about how much they hated the season.

    A giant narcissist! Otherwise, more literally, one of the more recent fossil finds!
