If hatred were the easy path,

It seems we'd choose it all the time.

We'd blindly strike in lawless wrath,

And burn all bonds which bridge mankind.

The least resistant course oft wins,

And yet, most roads lead not to hell,

And it would seem, for all our sins,

We haven't yet destroyed ourselves.

We must conclude that love is free,

And hate more taxing to commit.

If so, why do so many seem,

To work so very hard at it?
