Win the War
Everyone agrees ‘tis better to love than hate
Until Hate marches in the street naked
and seduces
the unguarded.
It assures us we’re just to despise the hateful.
They must be conquered whatever the cost.
Sharpen your swords! The vile haters await!
Shine your shields of righteousness! Loathsome are the wrong!
Wisdom speaks to hearts still tender,
Can hate be defeated this way?
Love the hateful,
and win the war.
