This is a visceral and powerful personification of inner pain. The monster is a potent metaphor for depression or trauma, depicted not as an external threat but a parasitic one hiding within. The repetition of harsh “M” sounds and the bleak, escalating imagery create a haunting portrait of nocturnal suffering. A raw and impactful piece.
