A Line To Deal With

A line to deal with 

Your enemy is not my enemy 
Nor your friend is mine 
This is the line I take 
Dealing with people 
No credit I give any one 
For displaying the bowl of poison
And selling it at a huge discount  
Nor I buy the gossip 
Or the recommendation you put 
I simply refuse to spread 
The rumour you ignite 
This is the line I take 
Dealing with people 
A man can’t be good to all 
All can’t be bad to a woman either 
Not all people of a race
 Nor can all people of a nation be bad 
Bad is bad and good is good 
Discourage the bad one 
Even they belong to your religion 
Encourage the good 
Even if, they are your rival group 
This is the line you should take 
To deal with people like me .
