Anger…
… just
because it’s easy
to
incite
doesn’t
make it right.
No
matter who
(or
where) you are,
instinctual
“fight
or flight”
will
only get you
so
far.
Such
mere
vitriolic
hatred
isn’t
nearly
quite
enough.
In
the end,
our
perseverance
must
depend
on
tougher stuff.
In this
world of
raging
anger
(where
the raving
think
they’re sane)
empathy,
love,
kindness,
compassion –
these
are the weapons
that
make us
human(e).
