Famously rich recluse
Dreams led him to the lap of luxury
Followed by nightmarish mysophobic OCD...

Releasing worries
Facing phobias and fears
Provides a freedom
Conquered with love and courage
Determines a new future

the bubble 
             burst
indolesence
         resumes
deflated
shaken
sombre
         inside,
phobias form;
pity,pity
performs
her
     siren
             song......

bold arachnophobes
kill spiders as best they can. . .
don't burn down the house

I have always been afraid of an empty book's first page.
The blank intimidation, no expression, silent glare.
I thought fictitious phobias could disappear with age,
But fears are caught between the lines and clarity is rare....

needful..
     seeking quiet:
to wind
       down,
pass through
            fatigue-
to forget 
            phobias
               and fear..
await...
    the trusted
          elements 
               of life-
for today
           will surely 
pass...

With all the phobias,
Fears racing in my mind, 
I've been falling behind, 
The sight of arenas, 
Looking for an invisible help,
But there's nothing that I felt.

I can't stand watching,
All that people know is talking,
But I dare to try, 
Found luminous crimson wide wings to fly, 
There I rise,
And reach the skies....

Yes, Science Fiction rules,
Predicting our futures,
Viral phobias flooding,
Survival of our immunes,
Building vertical holds sway,
Hi-rise farms beyond,
Atmosphere blown afar,
Surrogate wombs,
Artificial recycling,
Afterbirth of our tribe,
Robotic thought police,
Digital implants, no brains,
Real time, or not,
Are we there yet?...

in fear in phobias
in terror veritas
I fall into their webs
during the stormy nights

eight-legged freaks
grinning their teeth
staring without moves
at me when I sleep

and I know they will follow
me even tomorrow 
and leave me in horror

and I think they will bite
but then I start to like
this kind of dark night rite

I would not be what Einstein feared.
Eyes nailed to smart chopping board instead.
On it, somebody could set onions disabled to stimulate tears.
O, saying words, a kind of phobias indeed.

I would hit the sea of flying words in deep dive.
And yes for sure, I require Spongebob’s net and Sandy’s air tube
To practice my lips and tongue by yelling at jellied words.
Next year, I wish you promote my grade....

To gaze on the face of Jesus,
A companion for you and us,
He is our forever friend,
His eternal love transcends,
A blessing that never ends,
Our Lord in no lingo limbo,
He shall survive infernos,
Ignorance ignites bigotry,
Fuelling phobias, no victory,
 We could start a new religion,
For all our teeming billions,
Peace on Earth for humans,
For guidance for all of us,
A unique timeless love,
To gaze on the face of Jesus....

There are more phobias than you would believe
Some have names, others are a one-of-a-kind nameless fear
People have fear of werewolves, rats, snakes, and ghosts
Fear of long words, mirrors, hair, balloons, paper clips
Fear of belly buttons, vegetables, windshields, flashlights,
I try to see if there is a fear of baths; yes, there is.
Some of these fears might seem unrealistic and strange to you
Until you develop the same fear....

MY LITTLE UNIVERSE—LEXI'S PERSONAL PLANET (Visual 1)

Penned in a poetry permissive as a
periwinkle
painting palette’s passive paths to
pain

Petty philosophy added to phobias
perils
perishing peace in selfish pedantic
prose

Passing parodies of passion on paper
permeate
pacifying periodic paralysis, a paltry
pardon

Phoney photoflashes, the profound
performance
persist perfectly profound on my personal
planet

Chapters throughout the time as I tweak.

The below-mentioned chapters segments  of
Seasons endured.

Time in connection with deadends one way
Itineraries related to continued everyday life

Unchangingtwists and turns, facing phobias,
Adjustments.

Desiring resiliency. Chapters

Day-to-day events mold us into reinforcement
of one's fears to continue and not give up.

On the crossroads of the endings sometimes 
Contrast to beginnings.  Chapters...

E c h o e s
...of screams,
that fill these prison walls,
    break  into my mind.
Screaming all around.
Evil thoughts bleeding, 
dying, surviving, thriving
on the fears and pain.
The SCREAMS.
They’re EvErYwHeRe!!
Monsters in my sleep,
my nightmares make me weep.
R e v e r b e r a t i n g  echoes
filling the air with pain.
SHRIEKING with the searing touch
of phobias on my brain!
All of this pounding in my mind makes
a torture chamber inside..
.....me....

ODE TO THE AFL!!!  (Melbourne, Australia, a unique whimsy)

Are footy fanatics,
Total raving lunatics? 
The flag's in the bag!
We've got some lively lads,
Best we've ever had!
Peter Pans on pot,
The flags that time forgot,
Footy finals fever,
Talk about dream weavers!
Footy finals phobias,
TV claustrophobia,
Why didn't we win?
Any old excuse again!
Footy fanatics,
Raving lunatics,
Footy finals fever,
Melbourne's dream weavers!

(And we wouldn't have it any other way!!)...
