How Dare You

Don'try it

How Dare You

Someone said they were scared

Threatened by the voices

Trembling from the sounds

A call out in the wild

Just like a primeval child

All the while staring in fright

At any moment ready to take flight

Maybe wanting all to know their plight

Perhaps it was due to lack of insight

Or just a desire to exercise their right

Maybe trying to avoid a fight

Anyway everyone is allowed to have their say

Don't forget tomorrow will be a new day

But all the issues won't go away

We hope you enjoyed your stay

These are the things you probably wished you knew

It will be your turn right on cue

This is an opportunity only allocated to a few

But all we can say is how dare you
