Love, For Hate Consumes You!
It consumes you!
Hate consumes a heart like fire does dry wood
Hate smothers good as winter the green
Hate freezes all warmth and goodness
Hate breaks up families and places of security
Hate turns brothers and neighbors into foes.
Hate turns women into victims
Hate turns people not of us into “the Other”
Hate turns people of other faiths into enemies
Hate has been the reason to kill, to destroy the world.
Enough! Enough! Enough!
No more hatred, no more bloodshed, no more “Othering”!
Let love’s positive way into our lives, instead of the negative evil that is this hateable hate
Let compassion enter where there is hardness of heart
Let warmth enter where there is coldness towards the “Other”
Let understanding and knowledge enter where there is utter ignorance
Let the Lord’s/Rabbee’s mercy enter your heart and
Let your heart be the home of higher values, such as LOVE!
Love, that saints sing about and prophets recommend as the soul’s cure.
Now go discover what love is!
