The Poison of Fear

A strategic attack for the unwilling taste of fear could bring us all down, but since most know nothing of this they don't care, fear in its own sense is a poison, quick and remotely painless, it enters your blood stream, flows through the capillaries into your heart and stop. Your lungs are screaming for oxygen but the beating of your heart is to slow to initiate response, is this really happening? That's all your brain can process at the moment from the lack of oxygen due to the poison, what is this poison? A fear of a particular subject or a fear of being afraid, an oxymoron, it takes control of your physique causing involuntary spasms and tremors then your heart begins racing trying to beat the poison out, you gag, breath, 1.2.3... Puke. Darkness, light and your breathing again, blood dark red on the pavement, more than just a puddle, a freedom from the chemical of fear, it's gone now, you'll be okay, it' gone for now... you'll be okay.
