Warped and twisted extremists
spread everywhere a stream of fear,
entwine us in their vicious schemes
to lure us into their world of hatred
This flood of anger must be resisted
or peace will never reign again.
The creases of sweetness
and kindness must be smoothed
and lines of love thrown out to all.

I guess this is where the given words took all of us…so sad that it’s an issue for all of us. I will be driving through San Bernadino in a couple of weeks. I spent 12 weeks there back in the 60’s during my psych nursing training.
