Challenge
Write about your worst fear. Something that runs chills down your spine, stops your heart or accelerates it, makes you tremble in fear or just freezes your body and mind. Poetry preferred but prose is acceptable too.

The Fear of my Heart
Hearing stories of
immeasurable misfortune,
I softly twist this can-opener
to the circle that is your
broken heart.
I have caused this harm
through misperception-
wrong views I forged
and wore so blindly.
So now I do my best to
love with courage;
For I no longer fear death,
only contributing to yours.
