Beware the Bear

Polly said it might help me if I wrote some of my fears down. It'd take away their power, she said, so here goes. Bears. Massive teeth, massive claws, and a roar to wake the dead. I am terrified of bears and know that they roam Bearclaw Pass to the east of here, hence its nomenclature. I have heard fearsome Lynxes roam the area as well... Oh, bother, I don't think this is helping.
