I’m not afraid of lions and tigers
They aren’t stalking my streets
There’s a whole different predator out here
With hate and hurt in their heart looking for meat
I’m not afraid of werewolves and vampires
There are worse monsters out under the moon
Plotting and scheming looking to catch you alone
Broken in their head on a path towards doom
I’m not afraid of snakes and spiders
They are dangerous but predictable
There is a whole different creepy crawler
With a plan that’s just despicable
I am afraid of you
I fear for the evil that men do
There are people who just want to hurt you
When your not a threat or somethings food
These other things won’t bother you
But when someone’s not right in their head and they find you
You can’t trust what they are gonna do
I’m afraid of the evil that men do

Thanks
So true. Sometimes animals are more humane than humans. It would never occur to an animal to do some of the stuff that humans do to hurt each other. Good write.
Exactly thanks
A fine write Luke. You afraid of my singing? That's pretty terrifying, ya know. Well, it's like two cats fighting! heehee.
Haha not at all! Thanks
So true. Do we question the mental health of our leaders when they send our young people to die in foreign lands?
No, but we should.
Really enjoyed your writing here.
I agree thanks
