good & evil

♫a blended double octet♫

love
is of
the Father,
the Creator
of the universe.
we are all His children.
He requires that we give
love like that from Him, unmeasured,
to all souls, whom He has treasured.
there is but one way to live:
find the poor and feed them.
putting others first
is to honour
the Father’s
own tough
love.

ill
is of
the devil,
the wicked one
of the universe.
we are all his victims:
joy he takes and pain he gives.
like a web, his snares deceive us,
his delight to make life grievous.
there is but one way to live:
be a faithful pilgrim
break the devil’s curse,
his darkness shun,
and evil
will love
chill.
