I am afraid of the future
because I do not know
I am afraid of my species
because they are not I
I am afraid of I
I don’t know who I is
…ok not to be narcissistic
fear of love
because it can’t be controlled
fear of America
because it is not what’s declared
fear of Africa
because resources matter more
fear of Europe
because clout matters more
fear of Asia
because perception… sigh
I can’t go on
sometimes I have to stay
sometimes I have to go
a traveler’s heart
still a farmer too
a lover too
a brother too
and a old fart too
…ok not to go off track…
I admit
I am afraid
I also admit
I am courageous
I admit I do not know
I also want to know
I admit that I am wrong
I apologize…
I admit that I love
I also unfortunately cause pain
