The miscreants we hold on your mind
are harmless in the beginning
but soon grows within us,
and before we realize
it consumes our world.

It feeds on our sanity,
claims our thought,
instills pseudo fear
and becomes an unmanageable demon.

So, next time you see
that tiny little naive thought,
don’t wait,
just nip it at the bud.
