The Hate of Man

The Hate of Man

There are many things to say about the hate of man:

1. It brings pigs to the table undercooked and swelling

upon blue checkered table cloths.


2. Although the hate of man may vary in stature and tone,

it is always comprised entirely of ignorance and fear.


3. In the forest green, ideas are hacked away without mercy.

4. Under navy blue skies words are raped and language is insulted.

5. Bellowing rivers die out spitting splinters of shame.

6. Archaic rocks shift slowly, saddened by the digression of hours.


7. Everything becomes scattered and tasteless.

8. There are bland conceptions out there, that want 

to peel off their few layers and dive free form into a well


Atonement:

9. Oh, a stern existence it is to live in a world where terror swallows every bit of logic.


10. When open eyes range, the aged body recognizes 

that some of the greatest tragedies are spoken in silence.


11. When I completely understood this, I uttered a sadness 

that screamed deafening nonsense only audible to the most basic of creatures,

and the only one who could respond to these words was the past.

  1. powerful words Mari. I cannot wait to read what is next. The truth is that fear and ignorance are the beginning of all suffering and evil.
