Nick Trim Poet Rhyme

Face of Fear

Motived by self interest and the chance to explore, 
walking with prerogative as though above the law, 
without any opposition an unstoppable force, 
there’s nothing irresistible in scavenging rewards, 
when suddenly there’s danger the hunger is no more,
invasions are incursions when there’s no will to endure  
prerogative evades when the fear knocks on the door
it opens to reveal a coward, oh how the mighty fall
