The hate -hater -hating bug


Hatred is simply a bug on the brain

which doesn't always wash away with the rain

that is the rain of love nor that of homily

 

But if you solemnly profess belief

in the God right above

let this even to atheists be relief

that God only means love

for no religion preaches hatred to man or family

 

The wronged wishing to be placated

The tortured wishing to be avenged

Embittered humans provoked to evil malice of hatred

forgetting we are all but Adam's progeny, one kindred

Alas, hatred's a scenario that so costs humanity

 

Most of us are tired of hearing

of this cause and effect' circle of violence and repercussion

Why wilfully make yourself a target and fall in lasting perdition?

Why not instead behave like a mega large & loving Adam's family?

 

We don't wanna hear the hate crimes is a virus

that has no earthly cure

Since compassion is a vaccine to

prevent it for sure

Let's leave no stone unturned in spreading world wide fraternity 

 

 

Yet some might think this is easy Peasy to sing and easy Peasy to say

Gosh, but don't the world need more die-hard supporters of peace till judgement day?

 

Let's learn to love one another whether we're born Muslim, Christian or Jew

Don't diffuse hate, hate speeches no one should  ever vent and spew

 

 

Keep the peace n spread it.!!

I love the thoughtful arrangement of this piece. For a poet to use a framework, ie. 5 line stanzas, is brilliant. It creates anticipation for the next stanza. Great job

<p>The use of biblical allusions and microcosm/macrocosm contrasts made this poem so powerful. The message you were conveying through figurative language was such a treat. In school, we are learning about poetry like this, it is lovely. Keep up the good work.</p>
