Jealousy, thou green-eyed Monster! <br />Threat to the mind of the youngster; <br />Pervading all ages, places; <br />Prevalent in Human races; <br />Thou infect the female gender! <br />Rarely the male who doth render <br />Both his eyes, free of thy green sheen! <br />Unlike the Eve who cannot feign; <br />Thou rob the minds off peace, a shame; <br />Envy is thy other short name! <br />And Ye who split the hearts who loved, <br />Like fire spread into the crowd; <br />Creating ill-will amongst friends; <br />Siblings, kith and kin, no end; <br />Thine nasty work began from birth! <br />Polluting the fountain of mirth; <br />Betwixt sisters of closer age; <br />Ye spared not elder men or sage; <br />Amongst neighbours; in vocation; <br />At work-spot; play; avocation; <br />Ye spared not men of higer rank, <br />In thine clutches, their wives just sank; <br />In schools and any walk of Life; <br />In colleges, gave rise to strife; <br />Envy, the root of all evil! <br />The prime method of the devil! <br />O God, protect us from this MOTH! <br />That hits the eyes of Man, beast, both. <br /> <br /> by Dr John Celes<br /><br />Dr John Celes<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/jealousy-2/
