Evil, In the Eye of the Beholder

Post by Brian mclaughlin » November 18th, 2015, 7:47 am

justifying the war
because we're the good guy
and putting down evil
is our reason why
is ignoring the fact
that our enemy
believes they're the good guy
fighting the evil they see
When we speak we are afraid our words will not be heard or welcomed. But when we are silent, we are still afraid. So it is better to speak. ~ Audre Lorde

true.

I like to take "people" out of the equation,
these forces do oppose one another, regardless.

I try to not judge the causes or effects,
I can live with that. I must.
evil and good are within all as well,
but I'm only responsible for myself.

peace
many is a word
