A poem for Martin Luther
King, Jr.’s birthday about the ubiquity of hatred:
Hatred has no
color, creed, or race.
All hate,
more or less, and thus destroy
The fragile
ecosystem of the heart,
Restoring
which requires faith and grace.
Each must
love for any hope of joy,
Disciplining
hate with well-honed art.
