Where Evil Lurks

I.

Don't have to look

down darkened alley ways

or at cursed places.

II.

Don't have be

far from home

in the untamed Wilderness.

III.

Don't have to swim

in shark infested

waters.

IV.

Evil knows no

boundaries

and it lurks

where it pleases.

V.

Right next door

or down the street.

Inside your home

in a place so discreet.

VI.

It can be that man

or woman

you call your spouse.

VII.

Or it can be that one

person in the mirror

...Staring at you.

VIII.

Evil lurks

where it pleases.

You just have to see it

before it sees you.
