“Man who is ignorant of fear is courageous,” father says

I don’t think I ever knew

Anyone as wise as my father

But I still question his courage and all men’s

Instance in war when men fight

And confront their enemies

They seem so indifferent

Cold-hearted as they kill

Ah, they may think themselves secure and cautious

But fear of being overpowered by their enemies

Always floats within their minds

Some men continually think about fear

And nightmares become reality

Until they almost lose sanity

Sometimes it drives them to death

Others are able to withstand the pressures

And fight bravely through the bloodshed and frustration

They acknowledge the fear that killed their comrades

But they still are strong willed and bear anything

That crosses their path including hell’s fire

They march on until there’s nothing to fear on the battlefield

Those are the instances of fear and courage that I knew

But there is another fight for justice

Tight-fisted, heads held up high as the public voice opinions

Arousing the attention of concerned fellow citizens and government

Attracted and stand behind the strong

What cowards will fall?
