Fear Is A Brutal Foe Poem by Kenneth Maswabi
Fear Is A Brutal Foe
Fear is a battalion of mercenary chemicals
Capable of incapacitating even the most hardened of individuals
In the absence of faith, hope, Love and sometimes courage
Fear is stealthily deployed to incinerate the mind, body and spirit
To totally destroy the pedestal of reason and common sense
Fear arises deep in the subconscious mind
Dressed in the most vicious of costumes
Fear destroys the spirit first
Then the mind and finally the body
Fear is a manipulative force
Capable of creating delusions and illusions
Fear can incarcerate even the most innocent human being
Mutilating his (her)sense of being
Sometimes overpowering the hardwired will to survive
Fear is a ruthless force
A brutal foe
Do not surrender to fear
Because fear is an enemy of human consciousness
Do not be coerced by fear
Because fear is a ghost
Incapable of inflicting harm
It manipulates your senses into the path of self-destruction
Fear is continuously at your doorstep
Unless you have the armour of faith, hope and Love
And the ancient sacred skill of total Silence (stillness)
Fear requires wisdom
Not reason
Fear requires the arsenal of the illogical mind
Hope, Faith, Love, Courage, humility...etc
A true rational poem, powerfully worded, an amazing read. Indeed Fear is A Brutal Foe, like Stress, so never let Hope, Faith, Love, be lost, cultivate that, since LOVE, HOPE and FAITH are the most important subjects to have them in our body and soul. They make you whole. Absolute Brilliant Poem, intelligently worded. CONGRATULATIONS being chosen as The Member Poem Of The Day! Hurray! Most beautiful. Happy Sunday.

Your depiction of fear as a sinister shadow without substance totally resonates with my own conviction of it. A powerful poem written with deep insight. Thanks for sharing and do remain enriched.
Fear is stealthily deployed to incinerate the mind, body and spirit To totally destroy the pedestal of reason and common sense Fear arises deep in the subconscious mind Dressed in the most vicious of costumes. This poem is psychological, spiritual and philosophical. thank you dear poet and i hail your mind. tony
Powerful insights compellingly shared! Indeed, fear is manipulative, coercive and soul-destroying. It is a BATTALION OF INCAPACITATING CHEMICALS. It is a GHOST that dissolves when exposed to the weapons of a strong soul, such as love. Reason is not the best weapon. because fear can wear VICIOUS COSTUMES, , such as " logic." A 10 for sure!
A wonderful, powerful and insightful write. Yes, fear is indeed a brutal foe. It can incapacitate a person or take his life. Liked the closure line. Wonderful attributes that strongly eliminate this brutal foe. Congratulations for a truly deserved accolade.
