Hello Pharp,
Nice piece of poetry having impressive and perfectly matching the theme phraseology, and beautifully depicting its theme - Monster, his nature, and the means of defeating him.
Smooth and enchanting flow throughout from the beginning to the end with lovely rhyming scheme.
Entertaining as well as Educative!

Comment from Cindy Warren
The monsters that resemble humans are the scariest ones. I thought the kid in the picture looked more scared than scary, tho. He's trying to look tough so nobody can see he's just a scared kid.

Comment from Ogden
Well, your idea of monsters is quite different than how most people envision them. The monsters in your mind are humans, no doubt, unfortunately getting there due to personal experience.
Here's hoping you are seeing fewer of them these days.

Comment from evesayshi
In my opinion, a startling poem, dramatic in content and smoothly flowing in movement from line to line, concluding hopefully and with encouraging promise - compliant with the prompt and complemented artfully by the striking image. Best wishes in the contest...

Comment from Miss Cookie Atkinson
I like the artwork you chooser to go with your poem it is a perfect match.
You captured my attention from the first line to the last. No matter what kind of monster you are. You have to pay your duels in the end.
Thank you for sharing.

Comment from Fonda Little
Love it! Your rhyme scheme is on point!
The Lord led me to this scripture to share with you!
Ephesians 6:10-18 New International Version (NIV)
The Armor of God
10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
18 And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord's people.
Keep up the great work! God bless you In Jesus's Almighty, All Powerful, Divine, Holy, Majestic Name, The Name Above All Names I pray, amen, Amen, AMEN!

Comment from Justin Chopin
Well done. I assume you're speaking about the devil since you say that this monster is a " wolf in sheep's clothing" "Depraved and disgusting" and negative to the point where he utilizes his negativity to deceive the innocent into his world of damnation. I enjoyed your poem especially near the end where you spoke about using the Salvation of God as a weapon against Lucifer. Keep up the good work.

Very well written contest entry. I like the rhyming , its my favorite. You have described a monster very well and you are correct...they disguise themselves cleverly. Best of luck in the contest.
