Notes About The Poem

See No Evil

See No Evil 

Not all are alike. 
Some are mean and nasty. 
Some have motives. 
Some don't care. 

They fought in court, 
They tumbled dry when washed. 
Their performances...
award-winning, 
and gold medal. 
But insufficient to hide, 
their eyes. 

Their hate was too real. 
It was larger than life. 
It would follow them, 
from this world, 
into the next. 

Only there they will know, 
they have driven down...
the wrong road. 
All the time running from 
the truth spoken out loud. 

Embracing lies over facts, 
that relate to no one else, 
but the eternity of all souls. 
You are forgiven, 
but you need to forgive...
yourselves. 
As I believe, 
you
are
blind. 

Hell has a special place...
for the blind.
