Permeating even the soul...

Of life, Of death Of love, Of none… Fear exudes its own, Permeates even the soul, The heart beats more dissolute, This as humans we have forever known… Fear of fear, So inviolable it is its own creation, Fear can bring down a nation, It can kill without trepidation, Which half does it manifest itself, Of the cerebral hemisphere. © -em- 5/22/16

Fear? Haven't you heard?...

[Shoeshine Boy's ears perk up in surprise]
There's no need to fear! Underdog is here!

So you see, there's no need to fear, Ed. I suppose you've gotten too old to remember the real superheroes.

You are becoming more philosophical in your young age, ED.

This reminds me of what FDR, one of your presidents said, "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself." Thought-provoking words, Ed. Love and peace,

Like Michael, fear is a positive way of interacting with the environment. When we overreact is when we get trouble.

Well I'll be Gosh-Darned...
There IS some intelligence IN there!
The Knave Does have a glimmer of
Knowledge...

The proper use of two intelligent words...
'abject' and 'cerebral' in the same post ...
That might hold a promise of being Knightly.

In other words ...
Well Done, my Trusty Friend !

A little fear can be a good thing. Fight or flight.
