Wizardry
I may be vindictive
But I know better
than to waste my wishes
on revenge.
I may be righteously enraged
But I know violence
heals no wounds
creates no peace
gives no solace
I have learned through misery
that expectations are heralds
of disappointment, prophets
blind and diseased.
Better to envision calm
vistas, pleasing to sensation,
happy successful scenes, merry
and blessed, when wishes
are conceived.
