The One That I Do Fear Most Of All Poem by Francis Duggan

I do not fear the judgemental who know of and downgrade me
Those who see the flaws in others their own flaws do not wish to see
And I do not fear God as many do since I'm not religious in any way
For any sins I do commit to Karma I must pay.

I am wary of some living people but why should one fear the dead
Though of the so called ghosts of the departed the superstititous do feel dread
The deceased serial murderer cannot harm you in any way
He is rendered quite harmless where he forever lay.

I fear growing old and senile my memory in decay
I'd love to have all of my faculties until my life's final day
To live happily and healthy and for as long as I can
And have a painless ending in my sleep as an old man.

I do fear violent people they may do me a physical injury
From a big young man in an angry mood your best bet is to flee
But the Reaper of lives is the one that I do fear most of all
For there will come the moment when to his scythe I must fall.
