The Ant On My Balcony

The ant on my balcony Today there was an ant on my balcony. I focused on it in fear. Today there was a spider on my balcony. I focused on it in fear. Today I set a bird free from my air conditioner. I grabbed it in love and let it fly. Today I asked my wife who she was attracted to. Feeding on my fear, I looked for ways to hurt myself. Wondering, when I would grab her in love and let her fly.
