I had not yawned
Nor opened eyes yet
The day not even started
I am already a threat
I paused to get up
Had not really slept
Still laying in bed
I am already a threat
Showered and shaved
My face is still wet
Brushed teeth, fully dressed
I am already a threat
Take a bus, walk or drive
One thing’s a sure bet
Once skin and face are seen
I am already a threat
Will I make it back home?
My fear and my fret
Guilty, by color
I am already a threat
