Sarcomical: Half-Week Haiku 19: Fears and Phobias

Half-Week Haiku 19: Fears and Phobias

In honor of the horrid display of wildlife outside my front door, as documented in the last post, I'm calling on you to dredge up your deep-seeded fears and phobias for our haiku-ing pleasure. See, if I were my husband, I'd probably write something like:
eight legged devils...
nightmares of webs spinning death
make me crap my pants

...and for myself? Well, see, I have LOTS to pick from. But let's just go with, say...
i don't trust this thing
reach out, deep breath and hold tight
screw escalators

OR...
hysterical tears
i just know this bridge will plunge
close my eyes and hum

This is me.

I'm an animal snuggler, Lover of Words and raging introvert who others often confuse for an extrovert. I'm typically caffeinated as a rule, BE IT BY BEAN OR BY LEAF.

This is the year I'll be talking a lot about my journey to grow further as a photographer, artist, music addict, YOGISTA, writer, volunteer, life adventurer, ALMOST-VEGETARIAN, runner, book devourer, knee sock connoisseur and procreator (yes, after 13 years we're finally working on that one, and it may be a more twisty path than we anticipated).

I embrace my inner geek (see: obsession with finding the perfect pen, affection for NERD GLASSES) and accept my irrational fears (see: FEET, rug bugs, outer space). I figure they balance out my super cool musical tastes, good luck in parking lots and long legs.

*Wife to 1, fur mother to 4.
Future parent to severely over-photographed children.
