A Monster a Day keeps the Doctor Away

in #monsterslast year

Now don't expect me to come up with a new monster, every single day. I don't think there are 365 of them and, honestly, that is not how (my) creativity works.

I just liked the sound of it.
Sure beats the sound of an apple.
Although some apples can be pretty crunchy.


Yesterday I spoke about The Monster of Overthinking and Underfeeling that wore a helmet indoors as it feared the ceiling...

Then, today, The Monster of Fear, screamed into my ear.

Not that I saw it. It was just a voice, as explained in the following screenshot of what I wrote down:

Let's add some subs, just in case the image isn't working:

THE MONSTER OF FEAR
was afraid to appear

Even its grandma
couldn't come near**


Those where the first four lines that came to me.
I also jotted down some more rhymes:



It was afraid of the dark
and super scared of heights

feared to walk
in the park
and felt anxious of lights

Whoever came near it
it started to fear it

even the cutest of critters
gave it the jitters

it feared its friends
it feared its wife

it feared its breath
as much as death

it hardly stir-red
as someone might hear it

you call that life?


Forgive me for the ugly drawing. It's hard to draw something so fearful that it wont show its face.

I like the title :⁠,⁠-⁠)

Do you like apples?
or monsters?

Both not 😜... but like your title

How can someone not like apples?
Curious how many types you've tried :<)

P.S. I come from a bit of an apple country

I tried 2 types of Apple...
Wow! Apple country...Where are many types of apples available?

Yeah, The Netherlands is known for its apples.
I guess India isn't?

Oops I have some sympathy for the monster of fear

Don't have too much sympathy for it. It needs to work on itself ;<)

Ooh wow
The monster of fear must have been so scared for the fact that it becomes scared when people come close to it

It's even afraid of itself. Name something and it fears it.

I can relate to the Monster of Fear, sometimes fear can make everything seem scarier than it really is. Overcoming it takes a lot of courage. Nice one good friend

I hope you didn't jitter much because of the negative influence of the monster of fear (a joke). Nice drawings by the way and beautifully poetic lines. I hope you are getting along fine this week. All the best my friend.

Haha! No, I did not.

Glad you enjoyed this and have a nice day!

Aw, you could have at least voted. Then your comment would look more sincere.

It didn't cross my mind, mate. I just felt I was dropping a constructive comment in reaction to the post. But I made it short because my resources credits and HP are way too low, so I can also support other posts with my comments. Thanks anyway, @meesterboom. All the best.

I don't think that's true. I think that you are a comment farmer who doesn't even have the decency to vote the posts he makes a comment on.

You have upvoted 4 times in the past seven days. 4 times!? It might only be a token thing but it still counts. You have enough RC for as many votes as comments but you just don't bother.

Every cent you get from commenting (and you comment a lot) you send out to the exchanges.

At least be honest

No problem at all. Thanks for your assertion. I will continue to do my best on hive no matter who misunderstands.

I feel for this monster of fear, I would like to see it overcome all it's obstacles, perhaps crunchy apples might help, they do, do wonders for one. xxx

I feel right sorry for the Monster of Fear!

No need to do so. It might feed on that. Please don't give it more power

True words indeed!! No pity for you, monster!

no pity party,indeed.
