Advent III 2015

The candidate denounced his detractors
as a brood of vipers
and was met
with similar derision
from them online.
His supporters
piled on
defending him,
but no one
on either side
was ready to share
their food or clothes
with those in need.
Yet in the midst of all the chaos
and mindless hatred
the possibility
of peace,
of kindness
and gentleness,
all passing our feeble comprehension
in this current age,
is near.
Rejoice.
