beeing locked in a cage is frightening
fear of enslavement
bondage breeds resistance
fight
escape and liberation
victory?

a cage that becomes a throne
the queen, who was a slave few minutes ago, is seated on the throne

will she be a good queen or a tyrant?
is her gaze the happiness of a man liberated from slavery, or the gaze of a ruler eager to obey others?
will she imprison others? or maybe she will lock herself in a cage?

maybe we are tyrants and we imprison ourselves? are we free nowadays or is it just an illusion of freedom?

and the circle closes
and the cage closes
"War is peace.
Freedom is slavery.
Ignorance is strength.”

be gentle with your fear

fear is needed
without fear you would not have the courage
because courage does not come from lack of fear, but from overcoming it 
after all, without courage, you would not have won a victory

fear
keep it at a distance
don't let it nestle
because then it will grow and eat you

keep it less
fearless
fearlessly
'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.'
