Monsters


You know are, 

Right from the start,

You have a gift,

named 'Charm'. 

 

Growing up,

It was easy for you,

Foolling everyone else,

Own agenda too.

 

Got a kick out of hurting,

Those beneath you,

Got a kick out of watching,

Those, beaten, because of you. 

 

Manipulate, Aggrevate,

Other's doing the work for you,

Being a grass, an informer,

No sweat, Easy too.

 

Want it all,

Nothing for you,

Not giving anything away,

Fuck you. 

 

Have a secret,

A demon,  Inside of you,

Know not to talk of this,

Will get gibbed, all the way through. 

 

Innocence is your weakness,

Young girls too,

You can't help it,

You just want too. 

 

Go about it discretely,

In the shadows too,

Behind a firewall,

The young is a desire, for you. 

 

Need to have, 

In your fucked up fantasy,

Need to get,

Doesn't matter what pain you cause thee.

 

You have friends,

Just like you

Gary Glitter, R Kelly,

Pull the trigger, on all of you. 

 

Suddenly you are longer free,

A huge list of crimes,

Against, 

So many. 

 

You sit and wonder,

Will you ever be free,

Perhaps best not,

You'll be killed, certainly.

Like a lot of us been through shitty parts in my life. In 2018 I was living in London, attending a part time acting school. It was a great time. Also I was presenting at an event, one of the tutors at the acting school took me under his wing and mentored me. Part of that process he taught me how to write poetry, or at least express myself through it. Now, I write a poem every day, I write for a hobby. I've had a varied career, the only thing I can say is writing is the best things I've ever done. I absolutely love it. Have got 14 publications on a short story website and launching my own website in December 2022, http://www.PeterGreenhall.com Feel free to add any comments. I hope you enjoy reading my poems as much as I enjoyed putting them together.
