I Wanted To Write a Poem About Hate

I wanted to write a poem about hate… as a way to understand it but the more I tried…the more this poem… didn’t go the way I planned it… I wanted to write a poem about hate… but the more I searched my brain I found hate much too complicated… too difficult to explain… I wanted to write poem about hate… instead the best I can do is write about something I’ve often wondered about something…I believe to be true…. Something we all need to be reminded…. to remember before it’s too late… how we were created by love…to love not created by hate…to hate. It’s funny: I wanted to write a poem about hate because lately…it’s what I’ve been thinking of but when I sat down to actually write it all I could think about was love.

I thought to myself, "I do not think Jim can do this," because of your other poems, so the ending was no surprise. Your poems unfold your soul thoughts nicely.
