Terrible!
What Jealousy and lies
Can do,
As deadly mixture,
They can bite into the flesh
Of all decency and truth,
Bring out
All the spikes of Hell
Destroy lives,
And reputation
As all Hell,
May then break loose,
In pandemonic desperation.
A wonderful poem, Sandra! I have observed certain people fighting back and forth on this website, belittling each other. What is the upside of that? Nothing! One person even devotes most of his poems bemoaning that certain others are picking on him! Come on, people! Treat each other like humans!
This poem takes away both jealousy and envy. Amazingly crafted......10+++
Envy and jealousy combined is worse than witchcraft. Beautiful poem
Yes, jealousy is definitely a monster, deserves no entertainment at all. Its always best to be mindful about it, so that one can avoid it totally at the first site. Very inspiring and thought provoking poem Sandra. Thanks for sharing.

I would like to translate this poem
Of all the faults that plague me, jealousy is not one that has enticed me, yet, at work and in poetry I have had those that have belittled me and slammed me, but you know what? It’s ok, all good, it is a monster indeed Sandra, but all monsters die, and their ugliness dies with them....great poem! ! !
Bill, this is a great comment!
