Question: Do we keep our enemies as close as possible!?
The bottle cap kids
go trouncing through
hard rock trails with
candy sticks in a death grip
and they don’t hear the rafters
singing and they
don’t see the cars crashing, the
sandstone burning, the aimless pistol
crack tearing flesh from warm life
they only see
sideways through a
bird’s eye and that is better
than not seeing anything
at all!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

That is true children are very innocent while the world has so many horrible tragedies they have to learn about!. You have to teach them about it so you can help to keep them safe!.I am glad I also teach about God's protection and faith!.It has always worked for me thank goodness!. Oh I see someone said it was about something else!. I guess that is the way art is if it is not explained it is like a puzzle to figure out!. Sometimes I am not good at puzzles!.I agree it is a nice poem about them too!.It is true they don't see life in all it's context!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I think sometimes we have enemy's and not even know it, they may hate through jealousy, a misunderstanding, love not reciprocated and many other things but i like to think that even the most hurtful of enemy's can be softened with a caring heart, ears that listen and a non- judgemental attitude!.

revenge is best served cold,
when they don't realize it's you coming,even better,
keeping close makes them confusedWww@QuestionHome@Com

most of our enemies are the closest things we have to us!. The closer the person or thing to our hearts the harsher the enemy unleashed!.

having a sweet tooth and being diabetic!.

or a love or marriage gone stale!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I don't have enemies, I will invite them over for coffee and cake and try to work out the differences!. That easy, hate is a lot of work!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

With my luck my teeth would rot out and I would be trouncing down a rail road track! Anyhow think of all the things they would miss seeing only looking sideways!. Even though I think this describes my point of view! lol!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
