These creatures are harmless in their dreamlike state;
their eyes closed they cannot see you but they know that you are there. They drift in and out of dreams and nightmares, their
eyes stay shut. You can see them ~ they can sense you.

Mummy, I'm afraid ~ afraid to go to sleep
In case the monsters come and take me by the feet
and drag me through the door and throw me down the stairs
and take me through the darkness whilst pulling out my
hair.
Mummy, can I sleep with you? They cannot get me then ...
