The Monster's Maniphesto
YOU ARE WORTH IT

YOU STARED INTO THE GAPING MAW OF YOUR OWN DESTINY AND YOU BALKED BUT YOU KEPT FIGHTING

WHEN THE TEETH CAME DOWN ON YOU, YOU CRIED ALOUD BUT YOU ARE HERE.

YOU MAY HAVE FALLEN BUT YOU STOOD UP

YOU SAW THAT DEATH WAS REST AND YOU CHOSE TO CLING TO LIFE, EVEN IF WEAKLY

MAYBE YOUR BODY CHOSE FOR YOU

MAYBE YOU FELL

BUT YOU SURVIVED

YOU ARE HERE

TODAY YOU ARE HERE.

AND EVEN THOUGH YOU OWN VOICE MIGHT BE TELLING YOU THAT YOU ARE TRASH YOU AREN’T

YOU ARE A MONSTER THAT CANNOT BE KILLED.

YOU MAY BE TERRIBLE, BUT TERRIBLE MEANS SOMETHING THAT CAUSES TERROR

YOU ARE THE FIGURE ON THE EDGE OF LIFE

YOU SAW THOSE AWFUL JAWS AND YOU DEFIED THEM

YOU ARE THE MONSTER UNDER THE BED OF LIFE

SCARE LIFE UNTIL IT PISSES THE BED, GIVE ANOTHER MONSTER A CHANCE TO GET BIGGER AND SCARIER AND GIVE THEIR LIFE A HEART ATTACK.

I AM A MONSTER. MONSTERS MIGHT BE SCARED BUT THEY ARE SCARIER THAN ANYTHING THAT COMES AT THEM. THEY MIGHT BE SMALL BUT THEY HAVE POWER. A MONSTER CANNOT BE KILLED BY ANOTHER MONSTER. LIFE IS A MONSTER TOO, BUT I AM A MORE HORRIBLE MONSTER BECAUSE I WILL NOT LET LIFE WIN. LIFE IS A CHILD WITH A PAPER MASK IN COMPARISON TO ME.

THAT IS MY SECRET. SOME OF THE OTHER MONSTERS CAN SEE THAT WE ARE MONSTERS NOW, SOME CAN’T, BUT WE MADE IT. WE WILL PROTECT YOU IF YOU FIND THAT YOU ARE A MONSTER TOO.

IT WILL BE ALRIGHT, BECAUSE MONSTERS ARE THE END-ALL, BE-ALL OF SCARY, AND NOTHING CAN BE WORSE THAN A MONSTER.
