Trader to Humanism

Trader to Humanism
 
Not fond of the species race as
a whole human, all too human,
despite sweetness and light &
nobility of human spirit and all
the “good” (because species
self-serving qualities) of my race.
 
But if I have to play one team
rather than the other, bad guys
have more appeal than goodies.
Weasels sure:I can identify with
them. Withgoodies I have to fake
it. yes,Yes, YES.
 
Tough love: goodness must have
edge
to it else it is none says
Emerson.  The bully-video had
more hits than Japan & the Victim, 
Snookie-like, demolished the  perp
who hobbled away after teasing,  
taunting, dancing like Ali, jabbing &
poking  big-boy’s head &  tummy
till suddenly: bear hug & body slam.
 
Both get suspended from schooling
while pundits consider justice. 
“Coulda killed him,” exclaim
the concerned: bully bullied & no
bullying allowed.
 
Zero tolerance & why can’t we just
get along: we  want to be good so bad?  
A  humanities division issue--question
for Liberal art.
