The Fear Factor! Poem by Veeraiyah Subbulakshmi

The Fear seed is miniscule when planted in the brain,
The farmers are the concerned parents and relations,
To teach the children to obey, this seed is sown,
To make the kids timid, these seedlings are strewn.

Black is the color related to the fear, so the devils are dark,
Souls are there in the graveyards, go for walking in the mask,
Noise of wolves mimics the wind, not only visuals, also the auditory,
assault of the young mind, to dream of being hurt even before primary.

Blankets are pulled up to cover the faces, thus stay away from evil,
Protective prayers are told thousand times with trembling will,
The seed will grow into a tree to haunt the young adults and the old,
If you have these seeds, just throw away; don't sow in the young mind.
