Unseen Dangers
Unseen Dangers
By Elton Camp
It doesn’t matter whether we are here or there
Dangers we’ve no way to detect are everywhere
When we learn it, there may be no way to swerve
From the path of a drunk driver around the curve
The person we meet who seems extremely nice
May actually be one who has murdered twice
The café where we eat, so very clean may seem
But its kitchen is filthier than you can dream
A doctor who on the state of our health does pass
May, in reality, have finished dead last in his class
So a person who thinks he’s safe and doing well
May not even hear approaching disaster’s knell
