I fear heights, noise, garlic, darkness,
Cats, pain, dust, and sourness.
I fear meat, time, food, cancer,
Flying, gravity, blood, and water.
I fear mostly everything,
This, that and almost anything.
Fear scares me the most,
More than parachuting across the coast.
It’s like a cavity,
It won’t go away.
You have to fix it,
Or let it wander astray.
It all scares me,
Even you,
Even me,
And everything in between.
What can I tell you?
To make you see?
It’s like a disease,
Sometimes without a cure.
Sometimes with one.
Watching it,
Experiencing it,
Feeling it,
Nothing seems to work.
My great fear of fears.
It knaws at me inside,
Just like a cold or flu.
But deep inside,
I know this can’t be cured.
All these fears are such a fiend,
What do I fear?
Let me start again.
