old man's game

 

no need for answers when we know the name

of present monsters that with hunger wait

to seize and rend us swift without debate

 

youths laugh and call this just an old man's game

knowing how easily the jest will grate

no need for answers when we know the name

 

that frightens young and old and soon will tame

the brash to silence now the fool is bait

since he alone steps out and would tempt fate

no need for answers when we know the name
