This is an unpublished book by Dean Koontz. He is an author of many different suspence novels and murder mysteries. It is where he credits poems which he writes at the begining of some of his books
Living in the modern age,
death for virtue is the wage.
So it seems in darker hours.
Evil wins, kindness cowers.
Ruled by violence and vice
we all stand upon thin ice.
Are we brave or are we mice,
here upon such thin, thin ice ?
Dare we linger, dare we skate ?
Dare we laugh or celebrate,
knowing we may strain the ice ?
Preserve the ice at any price ?
In the real world
as in dreams,
nothing is quite
what it seems
