Bane

Brace yourself 
For in this world of grief 
That harbors the venom of deceit 
Even a blade of grass could slit

More so with a stone and whip 
So be careful not to slip
For the judgment of the bigoted 
Is as harsh as the prejudiced 

The may assail you with their bane 
You may not even be aware 
That the one you helped to dwell 
Was the one sent to cast the spell
