THE BRAIN MONSTER This is a gruesome tale about the dreaded brain monster. The brain monster rides piggyback in the recesses of a few chosen brains. The brain monster is comparable to the worst nightmare of a sleeping child. His size is a little unclear, but he seems massive. His shape is a little hazy, but over-whelming is the word that comes to mind. His face, though never very clearly seen by anyone, is most often described as cruel and wearing a smirk across his greedy lips. The brain monster is likened to a shadow because he goes with his chosen everywhere they go. He is present when they lay down to go to sleep, and he is still present at the break of day. He attends all social functions of those he has inhabited and also attends their quiet, peaceful moments of solitude. He is ever-present and his existence can never be totally ignored. The brain monster is very, very, sensitive. He does not like bright lights, and he does not care much for confusion, bright lights,or noise. He rebels occasionally to high fevers and to some types of viruss. He is sensitive to climate changes, and rebels if he is not fed and rested sufficiently. He deplores stress, and will predictably rear his ugly head if subjected. Once the brain monster comes to live within a brain, he is stubborn, he resists strongly all attempts at evacuation. Some call him a symptom, some call him a curse. Some call him the brain monster. The main treatment for the brain monster is to keep him sleeping. While he is lying dormant and undisturbed he is much less likely to cause pain and suffering to his inhabited. It is said that he is to be tip-toed around, cautiously, respectfully, suspiciously. It is sometimes very difficult to find a medicine that will keep him under control. When he is out of control there are no words quite descriptive enough... and no analogy that can exemplify the powerful range of emotions he evokes in his inhabited. It is said that the brain monster can be felt stretching and yawning as he starts to awaken. As the brain monster starts to stir, the brain sends signals of warning to the rest of the body. The warning may be felt as the stirring of fear, or may be felt as just a slight tingling, or numbness on one side of the body. The warning may be a drop in level of consciousness, or just a brief staring spell. Whatever the warning... take care... and heed, because it means the brain monster is no longer asleep. Some call this warning an aura, others call it the equivalent to a sleeping child’s nightmare. For many it means they will come face to face with the brain monster yet once again. This monster sometimes becomes all to familiar because he wakes up time and time again. His destruction is felt by far too many. He attacks little precious children, he causes parents many a torturous sleep-less night. He is responsible for immeasurable loss of independence. He has taken many a driver’s license away. The brain monster has caused many qualified workers loss of meaningful employment, loss of confidence, loss..loss..loss. Beware of the brain monster he does not discriminate. He can waltz in unexpected without warning and without cause anytime and inhabit anyone. by: Debbie M. Wilson 4-23-96
