Hater Comments Designed to Maim

Haters will hate

So the adage says

The ill will they propagate

Can last for days.

–

Using inflammatory words

They viciously strike you

Though their reasoning is absurd

They have nothing better to do.

–

We all work hard as we write

Our efforts on virtual parchment, blood

Another such soul struck tonight

And I felt the anger and hurt, flood.

–

I really need a thicker skin

I shouldn’t even care

After reading what was said within

I had no smile to bear.

–

Some folks oughta get a life

Rather than writing words unclean

Not since my ex-wife

Have I read such text, so mean.

–

We’re all authors, trying to succeed

Not hurt each other for sport

Encouragement is my true creed

Not succumbing to petty resorts.

–

Maybe it’s bitter envy I don’t know

What motivates one to hurt another

Maybe someone loses control

And just chooses to choke and smother.

–

I guess I just don’t know anymore

Why people would rather be dogging

Instead of setting out, resentful what more

Maybe just concentrate on blogging?
