Evil

Evil

A Poem by Sam Freeland
"

our friendly enemy

"
Why is it that the enemy evil
is always so well known
keeping company with the antis
defying God but not alone
 
Evil has so many friends
have you wondered why this is so
its time with them never ends
as they help it to live and grow
 
The form it takes is ubiquitous
masquerading as its own god
getting the unwary to join it
whenever it give them a nod
 
You notice the reference to it
its sex is its own design
so readily joined by so many
helping them to have a good time
 
If you ever speak of evil
look in a mirror as you do
evil is looking over your shoulder
telling you how to hate them too
 
We see only what is in our mind
goodness may be only what you see
its a sure way to combat evil
try this you may just agree
 
When we banish evil as an idea
we can make it disappear
spend more time helping the needy
and we will have less to fear
 
Think no evil
hear no evil
speak no evil
join the living

The concept of good and evil, light and dark, is a dangerous path we all must walk. To stray too far from one side or the other is harmful thus it is a difficult balance to maintain the perfection of the middle of the path.

Well done, my friend!
