"Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgement that something else is more important than fear. The brave may not live forever, but the cautious do not live at all."

Ghosts, ghosts, we're infected by ghosts!
Spray the garlic light the flame stone the ghosts may they roast.
May they crumble may they fall
Rob my father of his gall!
Find the rope, find it all
Tie his hands break the wall.
Palace burnt Kingdom cold.

"But God spoke, 'it was he!' It was me he decreed, kill thy maker--blessed be.
But scalding pains run amuk
Poseidon saps home and luck.

The author's comments:
Closed-mindedness is a very human thing, but even family should welcome each other with open arms. If you've read "The Metamorphosis" by Franz Kafka tell me that feeling/image of Gregor and the apple isn't burned into your mind.
