Bravery

Bravery.
That is the question,
formatted in a statement.

What is its dichotomy,
can we dissect or analyze it?

Is it a cranial function, which
is up to debate in the lecture type fashion.
Does it do well with grey areas, and nerve functions.

Bravery.
Is it a tangible substance,
attained in the supernatural realm.

How is can it be acquired,
can everyone be brave?

Is cowardice its foe, 
or is fear it's only malfunction.
Do the brave fear, or is fear not brave?
