A Peale Paradox
'"The power
of positive thinking"
in this hour
of humanities' stinking
is
insanity.
When we kill
and maim
in our free will
democracy game
its hard to remember
we hold a distinction
as the highest form of life.
Animal
cannibal
what heights of intellect
do we dare to claim
as we slaughter
in the name of some
hypocritical ideology?
'"The power of positive thinking"
is reeking of
murder
while we
positively speak
and call it
war.
