Return To Loving [revised] Poem by Margaret Alice Second

Saul promises that time for hate and war is over,
humanity en masse desires love and peace, all
countries at war within themselves are ready to
throw off medieval chains they’ve been bound
in for far too long

He warns violent interference by enlightened ones
cannot solve these problems; only LOVE can bring
an angry mind to rest, the one role left is to project
positive thoughts to those in strife – a wonderful
idea to get outsiders involved without making war

Violence will only exacerbate the situation in Syria
and Egypt. Saul assures readers we live in illusory
space & carry out experiments; we wanted to know
what it is to live without love, a general conclusion
is this makes us unhappy

We can return to universal loving, the experiment is
ended, we have proof that living without love is hell in
itself – we need not repeat the experience again, and
can respect those who still want to play with unbridled
emotion and no self-discipline – there is room for

Everyone; people seeking wisdom as well as others
seeking hedonistic pleasure. As for me, everything is
tried out in my mind because mental feedback brings
perspective - using the imagination is such a high
form of freedom…
