Misplaced empathy teaches wisdom with sharp lessons
Empathy is a cruel bird with sharp talons.
I almost relented.
I saw your note, this morning.
The one where you channeled your Dr. Jeckyll self —
That pale reflection of the outer you
That’s almost gracious, unassuming,
Giving gratitude and credit where it’s due —
Not that Mr. Hyde that shines behind your eyes
Who drives both friends…
