A hothead starts fights;
they strike at those
who fear them — such is
the smallness of bullies.

They are short‑tempered
and stumble into foolishness;
they scheme in shadows
and earn no true respect.

Don’t fear them — stand your
ground, stay cool‑tempered.
Be kind and merciful to them;
they fear courage. Show none of your own fear.

Stand with the repressed;
together you will triumph.
Fill yourself with unfailing love.

This unsettles the bully —
for love is a language
they have never learned,
and so they cling to the only truth
they think they know —
anger.

Reflections on Life

“Words become the wings of imagination, as the poet weaves tales that transport readers to faraway lands, igniting their spirits to embark on their own bold escapades.”

“Conquering treacherous terrains demands both physical and mental fortitude, as a true adventurer never backs down from a challenge.”

Paul Baldry
