That Which I Hate

From the Lord
I have learn not to Hate
but what Fate has taught me is to
allow Hate
to be that thing I dislike the most.
I dislike Hate to the point
that I will not hate Hate for the Lord
will make his own point.
Those that Hate shall face the Lord
and swift is his fury
and deep is the abomination
in his word.
