Hate

11/17/15 Hate I used to think I couldn’t hate Well, not like this or that person Their hate sounded hateful “I hate when the dish washer doesn’t use hot water!” “I’ll kill you if you don’t stay out of my business!” “I hate lying, cheating, stealing…but (under his breath) not fornication” “I hate animal cruelty” “I hate slavery” It was caused by misunderstanding Fruitlessness and disgust and judgments My thinking that way was tenuous at best My hate came late With the power of living in my own apartment I hate the shyster I hate the lazy I hate the unforgiveness owed by us all I hate the disobedience I hate that we cannot always know Or see Or feel Or be Hate-free…
