PHOBIA
By Vincent Valentine
One fearful man, an otherwise ordinary man,
Terrified by the smallest of things
Spiders and webs and insects with wings
Butterflies that would strike ordinaries as beautiful
Cause him to be so dreadfully fearful
He runs when he sees
Such tiny creatures as honey-bees
Afraid of hights and swirling lights
Unable to walk on the street
For fear of being eaten as meat
Some of the above fears bring me to tears (they’re so humorous)
Others of these are merely good caution I warn you
For there are the good and the evil too
So take heed of where you step
You may be at the door of death
