September 12, 2025 – monsters

sometimes i hunt monsters,
i track them down and kill them
then i wear their skin like my own
to warn the other ones away

but

the problem with a disguise
is forgetting who you are
so i must tear it from my flesh
before it is more than skin deep
then go to the river to wash,
cleansing away the past
and starting anew
