THE PHENOMENON OF FEAR

PERSONA NON GRATA

Fear is criminal

It is evil

It creeps in through the backdoor

Then engulfs us like some senile volcano

And pushes us out through the main door

It dictates to us and we go at its bidding

It makes us abuse, challenge,

Destroy, maim, betray, murder

Tear up in pieces and throw away

In the end

We are helpless

Taken hostage

We abdicate and sell our birth right

What to do is bar all the doors and windows

Then it won`t come in.
