Poem Artwork

feel the fear
sitting like a lump of coal in your stomach
feel the fear
as each one of your nerves suddenly goes slack
feel the fear
as nausea dances a quick do-si-do
feel the fear
leeching courage from your braggadacio
feel the fear
feel the fear
feel the fear
and do it anyway

(C) Copy written, 4 April, 2005, by Karla Dorman.

Thnx sis, I really needed this advice. I feel the fear, but I do it anyway. I feel the lump of coal in my throat, the emptiness in the pit of my tummy, the whirlwind, that is in my brain. I do feel the fear, but I continue on. Thnx sis, to you and your sister Karen, for such advice to let me continue to write. Other authors here too, have given me sound advice, and a lot of times, have told me to write, write, write. Thnx for sharing this with all of us sis, this is a deep, and very true. May the Lord Jesus bless you, and be with you always, and at your side constantly. With much love in my heart, joy to the world, peace on earth, & ((((((((((MANY SISTERLY HUGGGGSSSS)))))))))), your little sister, Barbie

An interesting analogy here anyway and I don't think that there is a person around that does not feel fear over something.

wonderful advice...unless what one is doing is truly dangerous, we should get thru our fear and go for it
