Follow your fear
Little one, little one
Follow your fear
Back, go back in time
It isn't that spider
It isn't that bogeyman
Go back further, deeper
Follow the thread of fear
Feel its tentacles in your body
Not your mind
"NO, no!...it feels like death
Harmful, mean...unloving"
Hug yourself, you are safe
You are strong, you survived
Dismantle all the protections
You once needed, slowly
Untangle all the knotted areas
Let the trapped energy flow
Watch the projections fade
The flashbacks diminish
Most adults have been imprinted
Branded with the fear of death
Buried in the subconscious
It's tentacles expressing this fear
With greed, violence, anxiety, jealousy,
Racism, misogyny--all the hate we see
All one root--fear of death
Of annihilation
Lose your fear
Fall into the Sacred Mother's arms.
