Answer:

Parrot.

Explanation:

A figurative language also known as figures of speech can be defined as a deliberate and specific construction or use of language by authors, writers or speakers to create a special effect in their speech or write-up.

The main purpose of a figurative language is to convey more information and enable the readers or listeners have a deeper understanding of the piece.

Some examples of figurative language used in a literary work are simile, paradox, metaphor, apostrophe, hyperbole, personification, etc.

Metaphor can be defined as an implied comparison without the use of the word as or like. It involves creating a direct similarity between two words or things.

Hence, we can say; Mr. Benny is always talking, he's a parrot. This is an example of metaphor.

What makes a monster?

Is a monster something we fear?

Is a monster something or someone who is different?

Is a monster the very thing that does something without remorse?

Are monsters just scary. To strike fear into us.

But to an animal would we be monsters.

Because we are different and big maybe even scary.

We kill the without remorse but to survive.

But then why the things we consider a monster, for they are just trying to survive.

This makes me question then are we monsters?

Because we look different from one another, we kill, we eat, we survive.

Is survival the thing that makes us the monster?

Then what is it that makes us monster?

What creates monster?

What is the word, the feeling of monster?

I would never know because I never been called one or felt like one.

Nor do I know the people who had been called, made, found a monster.

I do not know their history. for I do not have the right to call them a monster.

For I do not know what a monster is.

For I am ever a monster.

But again what makes a monster?
