The Worst Fear Imaginable
It is the one fear I have never experienced,
And I would not wish it on anybody,
As once embraced,
There is no escape,
With harm to others and ultimate self-destruction,
Always the end result.
This fear grows stronger every day,
It feeds off any negative thoughts,
And seeks out any feelings of guilt,
To grow even stronger.
To fear being Human,
Must bring to those infected unimaginable pain,
With no kind wishes in sight.
How can we lesson its impact,
When lines between what is real and what is not,
Are constantly getting blurred,
And only our bad deeds being carried on the news.
Maybe, just maybe the Power of words like,
Hope, Love, community, friendship will get us past the fear,
But for that we need poetry,
And lots of it,
So, get busy and don't be shy,
The sky is the limit,
Once your hidden talent is let loose on the world.
