A/N: This is among the many things I have written and drawn to help me get to sleep. I'd just like to say that the kiss mentioned here is purely in a family/friendship sense- if monsters actually loved you, that would be scary.

One: Brave Enough

We awaken by night, go to sleep in the day.
The bite of your sword does keep us at bay.
But truly, my dear, must you chase us away?
Truly, I fear, we would much rather stay.

The sun is now setting and red is the sky.
If, by midnight, you've chanced not to die,
Would you take a moment to see through our eyes?
The things you'd find out, my, you would be surprised.

If our blows do not hit you; if our arrows do miss,
If you avoid us with each turn and twist,
Would you gather yourself and answer us this:
Which of us would you be least willing to kiss?

Would it be the enderman, his eyes aglow;
Would it be the golem who's made out of snow?
Many things about you, we've come to know,
But on this topic, our wondering does grow!

Do you hate the dragon who has learned to fly?
Do you hate the ghast with tears in his eyes?
Of all of the creatures 'neath all of the skies,
Which one is it that you most despise?

Could it be silverfish who hides in the rock,
Or perhaps creeper who blows up the blocks?
Maybe it's skeleton with arrows to nock.
Really, which beastie's the worst of the lot?

Would it be the zombie and his rotting flesh?
Could it be the blaze whose fire's the best?
Is it the slime who's rarer than the rest?
We'd say we don't care, but that would be a jest.

Do you dislike the iron made into a man,
Or maybe the cube from the fiery land?
Perhaps it's the pig with the sword in his hand.
Sometimes, these things simply cannot be planned.

Is your nemesis spider, with fur a deep grey?
We come out at night and we hide in the day.
It's nice you've decided not to chase us away.
This world is much better with you, anyway!

Will you take a moment, in the gathering dusk,
To reflect on the things you have won and have lost?

Truly, my dear, we don't try to sound smug-
Are you brave enough to give a baddie a hug?

A/N: Well? What did you think? Also- are you brave enough to give a baddie a hug? Which of these do you hate the most, which one would you kiss (as in family kiss, not romantically kiss) and which one would you hug? If they wouldn't kill you immediately afterwards, that is. Did you like this? Did you hate this? Are you going to answer the monsters' questions? Do tell!

Mellifluousness out! (I really need to stop procrastinating...)
