Black Cat Fear
There is a great fear that many secure
Fear that completely stands the test of time
It’s a fear that I have, timeless for sure
When a black cat crosses the path of mine
I go and turn around, right on a dime
But first I must mark him off, a crisscross
For the powers of a black cat possess
Is beyond the realm of the normal world
I know they leave me in a complete loss
I have fear of them, they make my blood boil
