If Bullying
If bullying was represented
By an image, a thing,
It would be a rabid dog.
It would have blazing white teeth
And sour spit dripping
As its jaws are always open
Ready to gulp down
All its young prey.
If bullying was a breed of dog
It would be small
But scary.
You’d only see its
Hate filled face
At the very moment
You know you can’t escape.
If bullying were a dog
We’d never have to cope
With the insecure
And inhumane animals
That human bullies are.
