FEAR AND HOW I WILL REMAIN is a Poem based on the Bene Gesserit mantra-moves on FEAR....one of my favorite literary quotes in my life....

"I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain."

Larry Jackson (friends with Dale Clark) also commented on Dale Clark's photo. Larry wrote: "The Bene Gesserit were some serious women on a serious generation-spanning mission and their litany on fear served Paul well when he was tested to see if he was a human or an animal with the box of pain. "I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain." Here, from these lines, is my Poem upon FEAR.... FEAR This is fear the man is just a kid man with a gun upon my very self  cocked and ready to fire and everything I have ever learned cannot be done because he is going to  blow me away over nothing since I have no money and my credit card is maxed-out and he sits in the back seat telling me to drive so suddenly I break out of the  FEAR business and feel just My Self I don't know why but I do decide to die as My Self not as my self with FEAR so I do not turn on the lights and I drive slowly and start to chat about how I have patients in the area we are in being a Home Care RN and all and how my credit card is maxed-out and how I like to play my War Drum at the Pub and all and I feel Fine in a weird way and stuff  and he says Hey! I'm the Thief.  You're the Victim. on account of he has to remind himself so around the corner we suddenly see behind us the real bright up lights of a police car and he tells me to drive fast  around the corner which I do and then  he says Stop and I do and he jumps out and runs real fast across the street and into someone's very back yard and the cop comes up real fast and asks what's up and I tell him and he says his name is  Officer Ed and that I need to pull over so he can get a report from me and then he tells me that The Gun  is in the back seat and the forensics guy comes and picks up The Gun and says Well  it was cocked and ready to fire and has Bullets in it and then I'm thinkin' about how I almost died but now I know I can walk through fear just like those Ladies in Dune and come out the other side My Self and only My Self Will Remain and I am real Glad and Grateful My Self Remains and it's a good thing to know That I Can Do This Thing When Fear comes 'round I Am My Self
