Fear

F ear for the sake of fear itself E verywhere a possible threat A ctive vivid imagination R ealigned would be an asset F anatical negativity O bstacles falsely conjured up R ear their ugly heads at every turn T ainted daunting outlook H aunting with hesitation E xacerbating apprehension S cared of every nook and shadow A versive techniques abounding K notted fraudulent excuses E vasive what if manoeuverings O bjectionably lethargic F ailure to launch and skittish F arewell farfetched fabrications E motional roller coaster A bdicating my power to ghosts R eadjusting my stance for strength Submitted for contest MID-JANUARY 2018 PREMIERE sponsored by BRIAN STRAND - January 10, 2018
