Sonnet 2

It beckons to you then it consumes you
worse than any figure of imagination
it’s enough turn the happiest person blue
causes disruption in the greatest nation
a mental planet made from kryptonite
will cause an endless night to be unfurled
consuming the good, kind, brave, bold, and bright
it will cause the destruction of the world
what is this thing that makes you insecure
the most destructive thing in the world, fear
