Poetry Dust: In the Middle of My Before and After Quotes

“Poetry, as an art form, allows one to capture feelings, moments, and experiences as they happen, which later reveal the complexities of life from a different viewpoint, without the influencing imagery of our surroundings. Poetry is born from the deep, quiet, often overlooked aspects of a busy life.”

“We cannot assign good or evil in man, due to race, country, religion, gender or status.               There are seeds of every kind, in the hearts of men worldover--and what one waters grows.     For all that is repeated, accumulates.”

“The habit of hate is spreading like venom in a polarized world, pushing us to pick sides and label everything. We make someone wrong to feel right, truly believing our views are superior. We forget it is collective influences that have shaped our opinions. But hate is hate, no matter whom you hate. I do not wish for that to fester in me and become one of my life accumulations and habits.”
