Love Is To Hate

Let us Begin

10
Love Is To Hate
Colin Sullivan

We live in a world to be accepted voiceless,

to stay sheltered from the terrors of differences

The openness of our love and soul is sheltered.


We live in a world where we are too blind.

Too blind to see the truth behind the smile,

the pain that lingers behind the face

that is covered up by the nearest high.


We live in a world where gained acceptance

rots in the hands of the devil.

Our ideas become so twisted and flustered.

It becomes unapparent to see a difference

between the man holding the gun and I.


There is one saying too much to handle.

The power leaks through the voice

of many who no longer fear

the pain of our carried out intent.

Who embellish themselves in knowledge,

who seek to find love in what they have learned

to no longer follow the crowd but to

understand why the steps are so easily repeated.


We take a chance to single ourselves out,

to open the eyes of others,

to share the darkness that hides behind the light.

We are here to teach love in a new way

one that isn't made up of sketched hearts in a note pad.

We are here to teach a new love

a love that is earned and destroyed,

one that no longer holds all the smiling faces,

but drags along the misery we went through.


The world came crashing down,

to fall far from what love we believe in

to establish the people that will fight

to be safe, to bury deep into a satisfaction,

to create the world that is grown from good

A world that is reborn on the floor of love.


We get lost in order to grow further.

We lose ourselves to assemble ourselves.

We fall down to learn to get back up .

We hate to understand the darkness of love.


Let us begin.

6 Things Owning A Cat Has Taught Me
Liz Abere

Owning a pet can get difficult and expensive. Sometimes, their vet bills cost hundreds of dollars just for one visit. On top of that, pets also need food, a wee wee pad for a dog, a litter box with litter for a cat, toys, and treats. Besides having to spend hundreds of dollars on them, they provide a great companion and are almost always there when you need to talk to someone. For the past six years, I have been the proud owner of my purebred Bengal cat named Spock. Although he's only seven years and four months old, he's taught me so much. Here's a few of the things that he has taught me.

It's fun to see all of the selfies on social media, they are everywhere. I see pictures with pouty lips, duck lips and pucker lips. I see smokey eyes, huge fake lashes and nicely done nose jobs, boob jobs and butt lifts. Women working out in spandex, tiny tops and flip flops. I see tight abs and firm butts, manicured nails and toes, up dos and flowing hair. "Wow", I think to myself," I could apply tons of make-up, spend an hour on my hair, pose all day and not look like that. Maybe I need a longer stick!"

The names and dates of the reigns of the first four kings, as well as the alternation of Sabin and Latin names, are more legendary than historical. The last three kings, of Etruscan origin, have an existence which seems less uncertain.

It is evident that all this is only a legend although archeology shows us little by little that these kings if they did not exist as the ancient history, describes them, have at least in the very Outlines were real as chief of a shepherd’s tribe.
