It’s not snakes or hour-glass
spiders,
Angry dogs with snarling fangs,
No, not reckless breakneck speed
Or deadly drops from desperate heights.
Not the threat of godless cons who
Battle brave behind a gun
Conscience bare of any shred of
Civilized humanity.
Not wind or water, hail or blizzard,
Nor any form of nature’s force,
Though nature is a frightening bitch
To be respected, if not feared.
Not the sound of cannon fire
That rings a distant knell of death, or
Storming troops in battered streets
Killing anything that moves.
Rising up in silence on a morning
Fresh with golden sun,
The thing that I fear most of all:
Waking without you.
