FEAR 

Our deepest fear is probably that we are inadequate. 

 

My heart is like one of those large properties 

which only house a few

 

The ones people lust for 

the ones they work very hard to live in 

 

And I put fences around it

to keep those people out 

 

And they all think someone terribly important lives in there 

someone important but rather cruel -- 

That she should live out there while we are out here 

that she should put up all those fences 

 

Then they scratch at the walls 

and break in and enter 

and take and take and never give 

 

They are all deeply inadequate, 

you are right to be afraid.
