hate is the opposite of love as light and dark, yin and yan, as normal as breathing and dying-- but we try to block it out, it doesn't exist- it exists in us all, even the most placid of people if pushed far enough. Hate is strong, it should be dealt with, hate is easier than white, so it is black- abuse is not always hate, it is frustration, trauma, ie when living in our refugee camp in Lincolnshire, all the women beat their children except those who had come out of their own country as a family and were still a family as it happened..It has always been so but now we understand more-

I hate....to use this ink
I hate....to use this pen
I hate....I have to think
I hate....no one is listen

I hate , these forsaken streets
I hate , those who seek to kill
I hate~ these boots, on my feet
I hate, fakes up on the hill

I hate family~ absent, not late
I hate money, yes it is true
I hate there is so much hate....
I hate, the hate, within you

I hate the writing, on the wall
I hate, the colors...they had used
....
I hate~ I hate~ I hate it all

Sometimes
Love, I surely choose......

For you.

I enjoyed reading your poem and your point of view of things that make you hate. Your poem flows and rhymes well and your artwork choice is interesting. I really like your third stanza and I have no suggestions for any changes.

This poem sounds ambivalent to me. First the narrator says he/she never allows hate in his/her vocabulary, yet then behaviors are described that cause him/her to almost hate those who perpetrate these disgusting actions upon others. It's definitely a conundrum, wanting NOT to hate, yet seeing such behavior that almost drives one to hate!

The poem starts well with the subject I.e. hatred. But with a hint on something personal, the poet decides to change the topic to some impersonal matters of hatred and abuse found in everyday world. However, it does show poet's hatred towards worldly wrongs.

A good poem on hatred.The rhyming is good and the picture is perfect.....a barbed wire synbolizes hatred.The thoughts are also good. Certain lines in the poem could be expressed a little better

There could be a bit of a problem on the rhythm, but I am not really concerned with it, I would rather want to feel and be touched by the message than count syllables or be bothered by rhyming schemes. i appreciate your take on the meaning of hate and how abuse is never right. Thanks for sharing, God bless.

    Thank you so much!! I am so pleased and happy for your expressive comment. Overlooking the minor things to get the message of the poem is truly what it's about. I hope you come back to read more of my writing. Your honesty is appreciated deeply!! xoxo

Thought this was a terrific entry, the rhymes and thoughts flow freely, I can feel the anger of the injustices you describe and your philosophy on the damage of hate chimes with my own! I think it's ok to be angry at times - life throws us many challenges and not everyone is like Ghandi! It can be destructive and soul destroying if it turns into hate though. Made me think and feel a lot - great post!
