Legacy of Fear
Would you rather die
than be embarrassed
Rather destitute
than shamed
Would you rather set your heart on fire,
than barter out your name
Does your reputation matter,
will your legacy endear
Does what others think,
release the pain
That haunts
—and drives your fear
(Villanova Pennsylvania: September, 2019)
