(not necessarilly one i'm especially proud of for poetry's sake...just a metaphor for life..ya' take what ya' take)



sometime's it's The Bear
you face
face ta' face
can't re-trace
your tracks
can't "GO Back's"

there He is
with His fierce stare
The Bear
standin' There
sometimes
that's how it 'tis

you can't run
you can't hide
can't step aside
all you can do
is go along for the ride

so face Him
face ta' face
if that's the case
all you can do
is say "shoo"

or you can dance
with Him

see a dancin' Bear
ain't near
as scary
as one that's big & hairy
ain't no fear
with a dancin' Bear

afterall
if He's dancin'
prancin'
He can't eat you
but step on your feet
He might do
