in this life it is easier
to be kind than unkind
in this life I do not sketch
I draw nothing
I do not paint
any portraits
or landscapes
I write no novels
no short stories
just a little verse;
but kindness is easy
to write hate requires
so much dark deadly
vindictive time energy
rather than soul rotting
wasting time
in soul misery
withering hate
anger pain
revenge
it is easier
to pray ask God;
to ask omnipotent God
to take the snake
poison hate
death decay disease
away; pray;
