I don’t fear nothing at all,
but when nothing becomes something
and it growls with sparkling pointed white teeth,
i shake in my shoes and
my legs quake beneath;
and i run and i hide and think darkly inside
and remember (as much as i can) ,
I don’t fear nothing at all; and,
nothing becomes something
and that something is tall,
and it casts a great shadow
that blocks out the light,
(’cause i’m small) .
Then i run in the shadows
and tremble with fright.
until i remember
(as best as i might)
It’s nothing i’m fearing
(nothing, that’s all!):
but it’s dark in the shadows
with ropes that can bind,
and i can’t clearly see
what it is that I find.
I think it’s a poisonous snake
that can hiss
until finally i get that snake
out of my head,
and wake up to find there is nothing (to fear) ,
I am alone and there really is not
something else here.
