On fear

Fear of rolling down hill backward.

Fear of bats.

Fear of fog horn.

Fear of being left in the house alone afraid there would be an earthquake in a few more seconds.

Fear of cars when they skid like if you think they're going to crash is scary.

Fear of dropping your soda as it hit the ground and fiz on you.

Fear of hospitals and needles.

- "Fears of Your Life," 2004
