Oh dear,
Fear
Your,
Here again
Not just a silly furry monster under my bed,
Ghost in the closet,
Or goblins in my head
I see your,
Not Just here to make a casual appearance
To remind me of all the things I have come to know you by
Beyond my unconscious human adherence
Death,
Survival
Snakes and spiders
Fragility
Debility
Not of the wild animal or tooth laden fish
That wants to make me a meal
And rip away my flesh
Perhaps some part of your motives
Might have even been helpful
At our inception of life
From a fast-running dinosaur
Or a thug with a knife
Yes you may at one time have had a noble purpose
But certainly never ever
To be the ringleader of this
Engineered circus
I speak not of the inherent mortal things that
We all crawl into this lifetime cowering from you,
No,
You look different
Bigger, good god how you grew
More contrived
Yes even smug and
Voraciously, conniving?
For now,you are viral
An infectious disease,
A slave to faceless overlords
Whom you maliciously appease
Who has been feeding you?
These steroid laden bones?
That has made you this disfigured creature
Parading an illusionary domineering throne.
I see more now you have fallen into the trap
Of believing your own media and self-righteous crap
Fear,
Your not acquitted
From the lives you oppress
You have shamefully
Contributed to this abhorrent mess
Submit to fears vortex
And surely we will perish
In a landscape darker than hell,
Truly nightmarish
Succumb and we drown in the terrifying seas
Where there are no lifeboats
And our hearts and minds are seized
Fear of the water
Fear of the skies,
Fear to look another person square in the eyes
Fear of our planet
Fear of another’s color
Fear to consider you my sister
or brother
Fear of our food, our medicine, our trees
Fear of our air, animals, germs and disease
Fear of terror, fear to speak out
In fact pick any topic
And someone will give that fear marketing clout
Fear of our looks and comparison to others
Fear of our own ideas and our deep desires to create harmony
Fear of our very selves and our human right to peaceful sovereignty
Yet you
Fear,
Despite your insistence
You are only an agent to our failed,
Fearful Passive resistance
We have participated in this atrocity
Negligently
With terminal velocity.
Because many of the deceptions we fear
Have manifested into reality
That is painfully clear
Lives are being taken
From hateful separation
And woeful neutrality
So much so that we actually
Ignore our so-called leaders blatant venality
So convinced of this heinous fearful craving for
Greed
That human lives become far less than numbers or
Animal feed.
And so we have mastered the after effects
Of these terror based inceptions
We convince ourselves of dining on truth
While eating deception
We take more than we need,
Practice looking the other way
And are entertained
When others bleed
Validate hate with protective necessity
Contrive ways of validating inhumane indemnity
If we choose to continue
Walking parallel to fear
Where will that leave us?
Marooned without hope on a smog covered blue sphere
Paralyzed, unable to move except in
Manufactured, controlled directions
Pretending our collective power lies in
Voting in fabricated elections
Loading up on stuff
That feigns to fill the hole,
You know
That big gaping one
In the center of our souls
And now a word from the sponsors
Are you afraid of everything?
Deeply disturbed by annoying images and stories of rampant and unjust actions
Then try
“New and Improved
Brighter and Swash”
Materialistic
Cultural Whitewash
For maximum avoidance,
Apply thoroughly and repeatedly
To avoid fear and bury the pain
To ignore the rearview images
Of social carnage and shame (p)

Excessive drama
Uncontrolled crying, worry, sleeplessness, guilt
And in most cases lonely and isolated death.
If these symptoms, persist increase the dosage
And stop by the mall.

Fear
Some say that love is your krypton-ic
Antithesis
But
what about starting with truth, compassion
Or abandoning selfishness?
What about presence, awareness and
An open mind to change
To face our fears with courage
Not violence, hatred, or rage.
To focus on one thing we love
And embrace in our blessed experiences
That walk us towards love and deliverance
How about gratitude for this life,
And sharing our riches
Helping each other up
Celebrating our differences?
Fear
I believe once awakened
We would all formally agree
Without any election process or formal decree
You are in need of a Loving mom
A big bear hug
And an early retirement
Out of the fires and
Into the calm
