Phobias
Acrophobia:
I'm not afraid of heights
Just falling.
Aviatophobia:
I'm not afraid of flying
Just landing.
Arachnophobia:
I'm not afraid of spiders
Just tangled webs.
Pyrophobia:
I'm not afraid of fire
Just being burned.
Enochlophobia:
I'm not afraid of crowds
Just humanity.
--Barbara E. Prater, 1998
