Flowering empathy ...Blooms
Run my beautiful one,
Run!
Have you not heard?
(Jealousy raped Vanity!)
Their child
That child Envy!
She searches for you
…With scissors

- Comment from author about the poem: think about this-Why would jealousy rape vanity?....Envy dictates that if you think the neighbors house is better than yours=- instead of fixing your own house you burn the neighbors down.

I sense a common motif in several pieces of your work: the hypocrisy of the human vices (jealousy, envy, self-seeking - sons and daughters of the great one: pride); present and working their destructive mayhem. No-one can save themselves; only with God’s grace can a free person turn from such vice and begin to embark on a more ‘wholesome’ course; to freely empower the intellect and will; to freely form one’s conscience for the good of self and neighbor. These are your TRUE motives of credibility when it looks like everything around you is falling apart.
I could not agree with you more thank you for taking the time to peruse.
