Fear

Fear in itself happiness to anyone never does bring It can indeed be a mentally crippling thing Governments stay in power through the medium of fear Through believing everything from them that they do hear Their fear of terrorism and terrorists by their Government magnified Exploitation of their fears by their Government a good way of keeping the voters on side A fear of some sort many people face every day At the sight of a spider some scream and run away And some have a phobia of mice and rats And some good swimmers too scared to swim in deep water and some live in fear of bats And though the praises of fear you will not hear many sing A little bit of fear can be a life saving thing And despite the old saying of fortune favors the brave Too much courage can buy one a ticket to an early grave.
