All Hands On Deck

Feedback - flight or fight – it’s due to enzymes. God put it in our brain, safeguard for crimes; fear is normal, a good thing many times. Facts fog up when fear uses its strong-arm. What is meant to keep us sheltered from harm can fail just like any other alarm. A freeze from fear forces all hands on deck. When fears become phobias, take time, check your fear can be a liar, a roughneck. Facing the fact of a fear of failure pray to God; ask others to help for sure. With effort on your end, you’ll find a cure. Focus on the freedom you can achieve when your irrational fear goes on leave. January 22, 2023 This is a reasonnet - four tercets rhymed AAA,BBB,CCC,DDD, and a couplet rhymed EE. I have used pentameter, but that is not required according to the creator of this form, Reason A. Poteet (yes, that's me).
