The cowardice of fear

The cowardice of fear 
By Joel Howard 

The cowardice of fear 
When you are here

The stink of muttering 
When you we are forgetting 

The pulse of anxiety
Prayerless impiety 

The joke of a lifetime 
Hearts cold towards your mind

When evil stings
And sons shy back

When men have needs
Orphans have lack

For men to say
There’s no other way

And quiet, they
Shrink back in shame

And there defame
God’s holy name

The shake and fear
Of cowardice 

When arms go limp
And flame grows dim
