Hates Endless Cycle

Earthy mortality of the Mind in unhealthy hues As heavenly immortality of the soul ensues Into a world’s region of purity and eternal Being banned to a timeless realm so carnal Inevitably it’s doom apparent consequence Evident demising itself as useless commonness Destroying expression exertion to paralyze A longing for grace and redemption realized Filled with so much hate, disgust and hostility Selfishness unable to grasp humility Bigotry a landscape seeded with venom Untruthful lies only picks up momentum A heart filled with jealous animosity Regardless whatever the correct policies Irresponsible political dialogue fuels fire Apparent some hold unreasoning desire Commenting showing their very weakness In unbelievably wordy yet such cheapness Hatred unseats instinctive consciousness Origin of jealousy and envy which is bottomless Comparatively little empirical attention paid Enormously a multiform not easily swayed Interwoven malignant attitude deep human sin Dark undercurrent, as hostility encourage begin Hate Begets Hate! It’s an endless secession Revealing awareness in a regrettable expression

'I have no time to hate // because the grave will hinder me // And Life is not so ample // I can finish enmity...' Couldn't resist putting the first four lines of this poem by Emily Dickinson into the present tense... Hang in there, Brenda, and nice to see you posting! Faith and Strength, Gershon
