It’s the Little Things

Maggots are tiny.

Teensy.

Impossibly small.

Viruses are microscopic.

Bacteria, the same.

Germs leave no trace of where they crawl.

These little things can hurt you bad,

make you sick,

make you dead.

They creep into your clothes,

your house,

your hair,

your bed.

So, sure, be scared of monsters.

If they ’re coming, scream and flee ’em.

But one nice thing about monsters:

at least you can see ’em.
