Fear Of Me


 

‘Strange, very strange,

You show no fear of me,’

He said, trapped in a cage,

‘You do not cower or kneel before me.

Where did I go wrong when I am

The most bloodthirsty creature alive;

Who are you who is so unafraid of me?’

 

After a brief lull, a voice broke out aloud -

‘I am you

Excepting me, everyone fears you;

I feed your pride.’
