People are dying...
A fatal illness
blankets the globe,
origin unknown.
Intense hatred,
darkness of heart,
creating chaos
Sudden death.

You are right.
Hate is a terrible poison. I think you put it into the proper perspective with this piece. I would pray that love win out.
-
Yes, so many are dying from this disease and I am glad you pointed that out. I think I will be a warrior against the hate for I want to live forever at least as someone who was never hateful. Cute picture too.

Oh My Word~
First that picture is a knockout~ and I keep thinking of the KKK- Aryan Brotherhood etc who feed off Hate-Division and Fear to thrive
They teach their children those qualities- like a neverending cycle~
Love this one~ and the message You brought forth

Powerful write. Hate can be very powerful in this world and can affect people in a very powerful emotional way. The ending really brings the whole poem together and expresses powerful emotion. Congrats on winning the silver trophy.

I love the image, and your take on the prompt, the idea of a global plague so simple and yet effective. Great write.

You've finally unmasked the hidden demon which has always walked among us in silence. Sadly, hatred really is a poison for some of us and CAN be fatal. I think everyone should have a look at this poem as it holds a solid truth that is oftentimes over-looked. Excellent penning and good luck in the contest.

There is an invisible killer among us. Lack of love has embolden it. The name is hatred. Hate each other, especially if you are different from me. Truth written, one day will be stricken. Success in this contest.

Well done girly! This is sadly true. Hate is indeed a deadly, invisible, assassin. You have said a mouth full here. Good luck in the contest.
