Haters will hate
So the adage says
The ill will they propagate
Can last for days.
–
Using inflammatory words
They viciously strike you
Though their reasoning is absurd
They have nothing better to do.
–
We all work hard as we write
Our efforts on virtual parchment, blood
Another such soul struck tonight
And I felt the anger and hurt, flood.
–
I really need a thicker skin
I shouldn’t even care
After reading what was said within
I had no smile to bear.
–
Some folks oughta get a life
Rather than writing words unclean
Not since my ex-wife
Have I read such text, so mean.
–
We’re all authors, trying to succeed
Not hurt each other for sport
Encouragement is my true creed
Not succumbing to petty resorts.
–
Maybe it’s bitter envy I don’t know
What motivates one to hurt another
Maybe someone loses control
And just chooses to choke and smother.
–
I guess I just don’t know anymore
Why people would rather be dogging
Instead of setting out, resentful what more
Maybe just concentrate on blogging?
