I ain't afraid!

I ain't afraid!

A Poem by Richard

I’m afraid of being left alone

The same way I was afraid of lightning as a kid

I’m afraid of ice cream … melting

I’m afraid of women

who are afraid to show their dimples

I’m afraid of trampolines with holes
And chickens with no heads
I’m afraid of shoes with no soles
And I’m afraid of Tokyo there’s too many people
I’ve never been there so I can say that

I’m afraid of martians
And I’m afraid of no dark
I do not like the light

That comes from central park
I’m afraid of my own shadow

But not ghosts, they just annoy me

 

 

But I’m not afraid of scissors that waltz to Copellia, ou La fille aux yeux d’email,ballet


BUT worst of all

i'm afraid of bad poetry
