Why Did We Put Hell In Hello

So, as we are walking
somewhere,
we encounter
our fellow people,
but since we were taught
not to talk to strangers,
and since they teach us
on television
that we never know
who these people are,
that they might be
a shooter or a rapist
or a mugger or something,
so we decided
like football players
that the best defense
is a good offense,
so every person
that we meet
we say a cheerful "Hi" to,
but actually
we're scared
and they are scared
and it's like we pulled out
a gun or something,
so they say "Hi" back,
and we keep on walking,
so that was how I was,
until I learned to shut up,
and now I see
that there's sometimes
hell in hello.
