Things I Fear

THINGS I FEAR phobia’s vice grips solid myriads of faceless fears hidden depths of horror lie beneath brave smokescreen tremors of heights vice take away life’s balance one wrong move or shift descending fall unforeseen suffocating small spaces with no way to escape oxygen depleted collapses walls in between stifling crowded places too many strange faces weigh down heavily crushing spaces inner peace strangling freedom fighting demons © Kim van Breda- 3 May 2015

Hi Kim! Enclosed spaces and heights are common phobias, but they are no simple issues for those who suffer from them. They can be treated hypnotically, thus throwing the demons out! #7 // paul
