This piece was first published on June 24, 2013 on my very good friend Justin Irabor’s (a.k.a. @TheVunderkind ) blog here. It was entered in a “freakish” collection of stories and poems sold to us (participants) by Justin under a bogus name of: Big Blog Theory – grand name for a grand old scheme by an old war horse, yeah?! Right!!! Well, here you have the piece (with some modifications) for your own enjoyment ….
P.S: Do not turn off the lights after you finish.

S/he looked different
Her eyes radiant and yet fairly frightening
The bulge throbbing and pulsing beneath
Knocks my own eyes downwards in shame and envy.
**
In one body, everything so complete
This apparition you can’t but call beautiful
A body at one time smooth and cuddly; but at other times replete
With sights and sores so awful.
***
S/he is like no other I have seen
Male or female I have no idea
Other than that, I fear I’d become a meal and be eaten
As I woke from my fitful slumber, only again to behold this frightful monster.
Merci.
