Quills of Destruction

It all begins in the darkest part of our empty souls. When we realize we won't or can't possibly reach our goal. We gnash out bloodied teeth, crying to a crimson sky,  Lashing out..... "Why, why, why?" So we bring out our heavy clubs and our iron chains. And just like Nazis kill people with our words and ignorant quills and propagandized brains. There's not a scintilla of humor whatsover involved in this. Just knives, cruel words and even our baseball bats and fists. Keep reading and listening to hateful words and soon they are your own. The grass you walk on turns to broken glass, your hateful words become shards that you cannot disown. Making fun of others or belittling them to mere nothings? Is one Hall of Fame to save ourselves from and find positive moorings and dockings. To take the gift of poetry and turn it into a hapless mockery? Is surely is no show of goodness, humanity, nor is it poetic gallantry.              ~*~*~*~ Exodus23:1 "You shall not circulate a false report. Do not put your hand with the wicked to be an unrighteousness witness.  No matter who originates the accusation, we should not repeat and spread it." Lots of people in the Bible have been innocently accused and since. *It goes on daily on the Internet and so called news sources* ~*~*~*~ February 2, 2020 7am PST

G'day Panagiota … we tend to forget that what we read in the public domain are predominantly person opinions, and the more hurtful they are and attract comments, then this encourages more distaste. It's best to ignore the vile hatred - thank you Panagiota - Lindsay

Oh, very wise, Laurie. Personal narratives on TV or radio are not truth.. So many morons here in the USA. Moronic and idiots to boot. Good grief! Thanks Lindsay. Panagiota xxx

I sent you a mail on this. Count the dead bodies or stabbings in the UK. Very clear who your enemy is, the USA has 9/11 Anf terrorist attacks on civilians. I know who our enemy it. It most certainly is not one another. We better start telling the truth in the press and Poetry or we might end up with no countries! Panagiota xx

Right as rain, my friend. Yet the wickedness in humanity applauds such evil. Poetry should mark such behavior as a cancer upon its health, its blessings given, its art, its wisdom, its truth, its inspiration, its heart and soul, its foundation, and its majestic beauty.. A fav, a gem too.

That old saying" The Devil Never Sleeps" makes so much sense. All negativity comes from him, as he and his minions spread lies and cause dissension!People are not evil. They are,when spreading destruction and so many falsehoods.if one knows who created one, there Is no room for self- aggrandizement and hurting others. Perfect " a cancer on its breath." Panagiota xx
