I put this poem on the blog last year, but i thought i would put it up again.
I HAVE NO ENEMIES
I have no human enemies
My enemy is the idle mind
The words that are repeated without thinking
The suppression of free thought
My enemy is the mind that cannot think for itself, that cannot see hypocrisy
The mind that cannot see oppression and tyranny
My enemy is the restriction of thought
My enemy is the mind that justifies wrongs, seeing good for themselves and for a certain group of people, Nationalism, Racism, Zionism
My enemy is the unspoken word, the words that wonder the mind, the words we dream of speaking but never have the courage to say
My enemy is silence in the face of tribulation
My enemy is laziness, inactiveness, idiocy, inanity, inaction and crimes against humanity
My enemy is ignorance
My enemy is words without action
My enemy is corrupt ideology, impiousness
I have no human enemies, just human diseases
