Fearless & Fearful

Nowhere to run
no place to hide
no peace within
between
none outside

Blinded by trickery
or is necromancy?
seeing not what you see
the gift of sight
the gift of light
the gift of gab
the fear of right
a cognitive glimpse in the dead of night

Something old
something new
the beast you dread
sleeps within them and you

Yea, though I walk through the valley
Of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil;
For I am IT
It is I
You snooze you lose
You pray
You die

Trust in your lord and your robed brothers
I'll trust in the rabid loyalty
of my blooded shadows

We would all love to be
at the top of the food chain tree
won't we child?
That says the fox will take a while

Time
not reason, unreason or rhyme
will tell
Think you're in heaven
but we're living in hell
the fearless and fearful 
the careless and careful

as the ship sails on...
a destined date
with the perfect storm
something old
something new
a hemlocked brew
in the shadows
for me and you

Fearless & Fearful
A lion is stalking the Bull
