Trepidation
The curse of an
inflated imagination.
An escarpment of thought
in a blistering mind.

An invasion of insolence
amidst a tempest-tossed
cacophony
of mewling memories.

A throat restricting,
heart galloping,
and eyes trembling.
A voiceless scream for help.

A crouching body
in cold defeat.
A quivering being,
gasping for an
exasperating breath.

Then, a ferociously seized breath -
transplanted
from an enchained soul,
gives birth...

The ant is one who works all day
and barely sleeps at night
Seldom is he, if ever
fearful of an unjust or a losing fight

He lives to serve a queen
and she he seldom sees
but he is hers in mind and soul
to do with as she please

She dictates...

The Literature of Trepidation
Upon the paper the pen bleeds, casting its sullen gaze upon the ideals of its mere existence. Trying to unravel the mystery of its being. Uncovering the wisdom locked inside of its core, threatening to overheat and cause a meltdown the pen cannot overcome.
In times...

The ant is one who works all day
and barely sleeps at night.
And seldom is he, if ever, 
fearful of an unjust or a losing fight.

He lives to serve a queen
and she he never sees.
But he is hers in mind and soul
to do with as she...

Trepidation
Mind races endlessly

Need decision now

Only one direction possible

Possibilities endless

Quorum of the mind, heart, soul, and gut is hung on the moment....

The Trepidation of Hell
Upon the earth we dwell what lies beneath our feet
It’s the lake of fire and its blistering hot heat
If you could look in the devil's eyes of desire
He would cast all of mankind in the fire
On a sinner's deathbed looking withered and frail
When one burns...

The Trepidation Conquest
Society’s lethal expectations stalk private yearns 
They creep and stab at me in an eye of lust and vehemence 
Emergent and muscular, they attack Akeley and fizz with amusement  
Looming in clouds of filthy fever they suffocate. 

Omnipotent and all-seeing, these demands haunt every...

Conical pillars,
Hanging...trembling...from the cave:
Sweating out of fear....

In Trepidation
It was in reach for, 
a chilling sensation. 
           A flame of the moon.

The world shrinks.
You become ready 
           for the direst consequences.

You deserve to...

Trepidation
My head is spinning my heart is racing
I think of you, I think of her
I just don’t know what to do
My heart is torn in two - my mind is so confused
I think about the ocean and the moon
There is so much to see and...

Trepidation
My eyes scan the telegraph wires from station to station, 
Drink the bleeding sundown in a thirst for information, 
Search the grainy distance for some glimpse of destination, 
And close against the fear of love in earnest trepidation. 

I feel the worry smite my bones...

Shaking Off His Trepidation
God stood with his hands
clasped behind his back,
the fighting ending and there was no command,
it was just attack after attack,
and no one left to stand,
take control, make a demand, 
he surveyed the battle field
with the utmost scrutiny,
he shook his head,
because he couldn’t even count the...

We went to the darkest places to explore our fear, the alleys and the cemeteries where the trees were thickest and the light dwindled to nothing. We did not go alone walking on the cusp of bravery but led each other dare upon dare to...
