#6 MANGEN PES (LOVE EACH OTHER)
(scroll down for a YouTube video)
Love each other, often hard to endorse
So what if we cannot always feel love?
Tolerance is an acceptable course
Distilled from burning passion undreamed of
See our fellow humans who suffer too
Spreading hatred causes life to be worse
Anger poisons the aethers wafting through
Hovering like an everlasting curse
We specks of life on each other depend
Yet we form tribes of separate masses
Mistaking charisma as our best friend
Further separating into classes
Although love is a precious rarity
Honor the emotion with clarity

We don’t even have to love each other. We might have to try being gracious. Where did love get us? So much havoc wrought by in the name of love. That said, thanks for the love and support.
