Serpentine Fear


I hear the Fear
Speaking in my Head
Again
As if it ever shut up
Not good enough
Not good enough
Too old
You waited too long
You miss too much
You always miss too much
Not good enough
No way you’ll ever be
Not even monkeys these
This is the soft
So insidious
Serpent viper snake
Sibilant and sinister
My best interests at heart
Only the best of intentions
I’d know that
If I were smart
I know this is only Fear
I know it is not Real
If there is no living Snake
I fear facing
Why does this one
Why do I allow it
To eat away at me
So?
