On Fear
ON FEAR
Iff eye am afraid they smell it.
They say among themselves, L()()k he IS afraid.
and they sneer
Iff eye am not afraid,they sense it.
They say among themselves, L()()k he is NOT afraid.
and they sneer
Iff eye am cursing OR quiet,
alone or with someone,
They say among themselves, L()()k who does he think HE is.
and they sneer
Somewhere in the darkness,they is fear,
and they sneer,
Sneer Oh Darkness and be afraid,
and fear.
