Please give us your fear

Please give us your fear, if you don't we will take your terror! We use it in a manipulation of the logical feeling of protection, please don't fight us by shining your light on us, please let us force our darkness on you and any one like you, if you decide to not comply we will have to unleash our far reaching power, if you question who gave us our authority it was your fear of losing your place in line, you fought so hard for that place maybe you thought it would be just fine, if you trust not to fear you will have to look at the mirror. Please give us your fear!

I wish I could have said this with more flowing words I hope this was not to hard to read.

When one group tries to make you understand a question with fear as the answer, the other side retorts with its own slanted views. This could be anything from journalism, politics, sporting rivalries, cults or religion to name but a few. The question I am left wondering is how we ever know we are getting unbiased opinion from anyone. When people need to scream to make you understand, I tend to put my earphones in and walk away.
Very thought provoking piece. Nicely done.

I still believe there are people who seek the truth, who try to speak the truth and if they find truth will give truth. They hopefully never try to force truth on people and I have never felt truth from a screaming heart that usually means fear has taken over.

It sounds political - like people are losing control of standing up for their rights - not sure that's the message but I like your poem the way it is.

Thank you for your kind review. This is up for interpretation I feel fear mongers can inhabit all structures of our lives I was not trying to pinpoint just one but it's seems to me when someone is trying dominate another person to their injury they always need fear to accomplish their task. I feel though fear is a healthy feeling that originates inside it helps protect us from harm but if a person can learn to not feed their fear to the people who wish to dominate others with it. They will not be able to accomplish their goal. That's my hope
