Monsters and Gremlins

I have monsters or gremlins sleeping over in my room almost every night.  The monsters generally live in when they sleep over.  They scatter things, pull out books from the basket and leave them everywhere.  They leave their sneeze sprinkles on the pillows.  Sometimes, they take off wearing our shirts.

The gremlins are sweet-looking little things but they have the most deadly farts!  They are like snakes slithering and crossing over each other until they are one big knot in the middle of the night.  One sits up in the dark (the genuine gremlin) and sees her grandfather sleeping with gloves.  She pulls one finger at a time while chanting "funny, hands", wears the gloves while saying the same two words as she fades in the dark again.

As we all know, monsters and gremlin are sweet while asleep.

the 4th little pig

There is a 4th little pig
whose tail is just as curly
He is pink and not so quiet
just like the 3 others.

Except that this one
did not live in a house made of
anything...

The wolf got this 4th little pig that I am telling you about.
brought him to the forest
and was not heard of after the abduction.

At least the silly 3 little pigs
who just danced and sang the whole day long
and ate and spilled what they ate
went to the forest to look for the 4th little pig.

(yawn)

Alas!  they saw a fortress
built of the hardest and sturdiest materials-
impenetrable and indestructible!

There lived a 4th little pig in the middle of the forest.
His house was constructed of steel and stones.
No tree was cut to build his house
nor stones imported from China.

The wolf puffed his tobacco
and huffed as he went up and down the fortress
that he built together with the
4th little pig!
