A Word To the Wise

Beware being alone in strange places Or, In the middle of unfamiliar faces, Know when you are in a danger zone Be sure you never go there alone. Beware the stranger in the night Who asks for help to ease his plight, The ease for him may be your purse Or, need I say, something much worse? written July 6, 2021
