shadows

the creeping darkness
brings the shadows to life
running and screaming
my fears seem to take flight

my heartbeat quickens
i know i have to get home
my blood turns to ice
as the shadows touch me

the shadows of death
of hate, deceit, and pain
they cause me to tremble
my fears must be slain

my survival instincts take over
i run as fast as  i can
but the shadows are still quicker
and their grasp on me tightens

fear over takes me
and i can no longer fight
all i know now
is my world will never be right

the doubt has been planted
i see people for what they really are
and i know all they wish to do
is bring others pain

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
