Eclipse Warning

My anger is a fast-moving planet.
But when it eclipses fear,
whole worlds can be re-ordered.

  1. Anger and fear are powerful forces separate. Together they can be cataclysmic. I agree with Debra, "World shaking!"

  2. I never thought of hiding ones fear by being angry. Guess when I drive really wild and scare the bejesus out of the Mrs. she hollers bad at me instead of cowering.

  4. This is a powerful analogy. When unabated anger eclipses the fear, things can get dangerous. Cower or get angry … two different reactions to fear.

  6. !! So true in everything. Horses are fear based animals and when it is also an anger problem - means unridable. Usually it means their death as they are dangerous
