In response to The Daily Post’s writing prompt: “Fight or Flight.”
The Shadow of Fear
By Scott Bailey © 2015
Flight or fight
They say
But that first day
The looming shadow
The bully
I was pinned
Couldn’t run
Couldn’t fight
Jellified with fear
Neither response available
For many years
That shadow stalked me
Until one day
I fought
And it fled
