face your fears

Avoidance is stagnation –

It’s the fragile mediation

of conscientiousness –

the intention of consolation,

however temporary –

an attempted alleviation

from frustration

through disinformation

self-falsification—

an aversion, circumvention, an elusion

avoidance of the necessary first step of abnegation

in the path whose culmination

will be your highest mental manifestation—

a metaphorical chrysalis-to-butterfly transmutation.
