“The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference. The
opposite of art is not ugliness, it's indifference. The opposite of faith is
not heresy, it's indifference. And the opposite of life is not death, it's
indifference.”
Elie
Wiesel

we live in a world divided
we hear the voices of hate
and see the anger
and watch distorted faces
cheer the abominable
we see people shot
we see the horrific and deadly retaliation
we watch as people chant in the streets
this is the world
divided, extreme
sometimes I don’t know how to respond
can I be angry?
can I hate forces, and people, who promote evil?
O lord, I do not know
All I know
Is that I am not
Indifferent
make me an instrument
of thy
peace
