83. Wotty-wot

Deep in a dream I look down at the ground
and see a small shadow on top of my back
Shy and afraid it moves further away
as I try to grab at it, and reach right behind me

Slowly and gently I beckon it round
and coax with a loving and caressing hand
where a little green creature with 6 bulbous eyes
scrambles around to the front of my body

It's tube like antennae wobble and flop
as the little young infant snuggles into my chest
and notice another young thing on my shoulder
whose body resembles a stick like insect

And from the ground I feel another one move
slowly and meekly curling around my left leg
where pitted, small eyes apon it's small head
look up at me shyly, fondly with love

Sensing their fear I look all about me
and see a young guy hunting them down
But it is ok I say to the children
as I call forth a protector whose also a mum

The beauty Medusa appears from the dark
baring a great regal head and locks of long snake
where the children I hold now cover their eyes
as I warn the young hunter he'd best do the same

The thing about fear, if its left to continue
will make you imagine and create bigger foes
But sometimes the simplist things we can do
is look at our fears through a differing lense?
