Love and Hate

 

There are those in the world

who invite us to hate.

And there are those who have

love to show.

Without them how should we

know in which direction to go?

We need both, you know, need

others to show—Love and hate,

which to sow, which to grow?

As for me, I love to laugh.

Even idiots can make me do that.

Oh, happy days to love and laugh.

Sometimes sheer stupidity too, you

know. Resist it or go with the flow.
