My Life is Full of Fear

Fear of the future.
Fear of failure.
I fear the inability to hear.
I fear the inability to see.
I fear loneliness.
I fear publicity.
I fear the unknown,
the unknowable
and the unknower.
I fear language.
I fear truth, 
truth more than anything.
Something that its outside of social or historical determination, and has been determined to be undeniable...terrifying
I fear the undeniable.
I fear desire.
I fear biological imperatives.
I fear jouissance.
I fear innocuousness.
I fear fearlessness.
I fear fecklessness.
I am afraid of almost everything that goes through my head, but I am not, for reasons I cannot begin to explain, afraid of death.
Though death comes for us all, it will always be an unsolvable mystery of how, and in universal ignorance I take great solace. 
enough solace, at least, to not be afraid.
I fear hegemony.
I fear power.
I fear money.
I fear control.
I fear controlessness.
I fear fascim.
I fear totalitarianism.
I fear democracy.
I fear regimeism.
I fear Reaganism.
I fear racism, and the destructive wave it splashes across humanity since the beginning of time. 
One of the greatest mathematical improbabilities in the universe--"mankind"--reduced to hating, hating physical characteristics.
"The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggle."  --Karl Marx, 1818-1883.
