MONSTERMATE

By Adélaïde Giudicelli

Under my red coat grow an alien

From a dimension I didn’t ask for

Hard science hit me back and forth

There is no place for a Frankenstein

No state for a mind like yours

No scene for a face like yours

But I love you baby girl

You are the spark, the pearl

Let me stab my stomach

Tear my skin by myself

Can you hear this crack?

See the light by yourself

Don’t act like a phantom I

will make you a home

No hard feelings tiny boy

You are better than a toy

Don’t act like a soldier

There is no war in my head

No warden at the border

No stories to be read

There is just your mom

Guarding her eerie womb

Go look under your bed

This creature dead scared

Whispering

You’re the monster of the year

I didn’t become a mother But

I love you baby girl

I still love you baby boy
