Nice poem! In my opinion this could easily be made into a short story or even a novel. I like the concept of using a child's point of view to convey the underlying message of the plot. It's poignant and haunting how the child would rather curl up with his "monsters" rather than his own parents, who are clearly at play when it comes to the development of their child's monsters. When authors use children to describe anything, whether it's a feeling, a source of comfort or an object, there is a certain quality of magic that makes the main point all the more clear. Keep up the great work!
