When Jesus said that
People mocked at him
I know
Reiterating these inimitable words
By my stuttering tongue
Would make you laugh at me likewise
Yet
I have to say that
Love your enemy
As you love your own-self
Self can be the worst enemy above all
Still you adore and pamper it
24/7
I think
It’s not that hard
To spare one moment
Of forgiveness and compassion
For your enemy
Who is nothing
But like your own flesh and blood

'Self' can be a very dangerous enemy who can do as much harm as anyone else....an uncontrolled and undisciplined self, will turn out to be our biggest enemy who can ruin our being.....its a nice piece here with lots of meaning, yes we all can try a hand at loving our enemy, like our own self! ! ! !
I liked this a lot 'Self can be the worst enemy above all/Still you adore and pamper it' and the deeper meaning of the poem. If only one did not have any enemies at all...including one's own self.
