Fear’s a discernment of threat
That hasn’t arrived just yet
Anticipation isn’t fact
So we don’t need to react
Shock-merging with the messenger
Of panic’s fear-predicted future-acts
Scared is here, so what’s its fear
And what threatens what’s dear
And what soothes the weary
To find the currents of settle
Keep constant with calm
Never letting it bomb
Nor boil its kettle
