It follows
Run away
All it destroys
Run far

Destruction
With deaths Breath
On your neck
Run swift

can you hear
Hear beat
Roar on the wind
Run on and on

Will it kill
Will it catch
As you run
You escape

No time to ask
And soon you die
Not run any more
Now you fly

------------------
Pride of place in the human race goes to one without a trace,
of subtlety style ego or grace for this position, I wish to say, i would be proud as i am greater than any other face in the crowd

Quite intriguing. I enjoyed this one. Lets the reader put their own "monster" in the role. Well done.

Indeed I too enjoyed this, but do tell what your monster is like, or is it our own personal monster????????????

The Monster changes as we grow giving it a face gives it in my mind a limited life

Without a face it will exist through time immorial
