Those Who Pack Malice
I don't carry malice.
But I am familiar,
With the burden of it.
And those who pack malice,
As a means to unload if from themselves...
To others unsuspecting.
Would be wise to rid themselves of the notion,
That an unpacking of malice...
To place upon another's shoulders,
Would be done without a suffering to them that comes.
I don't carry malice.
But I am familiar,
With the burden of it.
And it is not worth being committed,
To a life of mental pain.
I was blessed to become remorseful,
Before carrying out the deed.
But I have witnessed the devastation,
Of what a malice inflicted can leave.
It is best to correct and reverse one's steps.
With a comprehension...
One accepts and not argues.
Malice to inflict revenge as a means to victimize,
Has its surprising consequences...
For one unsuspecting who does the venomizing,
To pay!
And the picture isn't pretty.

A Premeditated Wish To Be Evil
Malice with intention,
Is not forgivable.
Even after the attempt is made,
To slide these deeds,
Over to the mistake side of life.
With a simplified 'I'm sorry' said.
Anyone can identify a mistake made.
There is something about it that is obvious.
But someone who is set to release malice...
Has a premeditated wish to be evil.
Believing that revenge tasted for them,
Will then be sweet.

At least two-thirds of our miseries spring from human stupidity, human malice and those great motivators and justifiers of malice and stupidity idealism, dogmatism and proselytizing zeal on behalf of religous or political ideas.

It was wrong to do this, said the angel
'It was wrong to do this,' said the angel.
'You should live like a flower,
Holding malice like a puppy,
Waging war like a lambkin.'
'Not so,' quoth the man
Who had no fear of spirits;
'It is only wrong for angels
Who can live like the flowers,
Holding malice like the puppies,
Waging war like the lambkins.'

An Ethical Grook
I see
and I hear
and I speak no evil;
I carry
no malice
within my breast;
yet quite without
wishing
a man to the Devil
one may be
permitted
to hope for the best.

Folly is often more cruel in the consequences than malice can be in the intent.

Although it has been said by men of more wit than wisdom, and perhaps more malice than either, that women are naturally incapable of acting prudently, or that they are necessarily determined to folly, I must by no means grant it.

Belda-beast
Size is decreasing
Under transparent purple skies;
The life youve chased seen thru my eyes
Was distorted, filled with lies.
Your hopes are bouncing in front of your eyes
As you jump to catch them floating so high,
Bye, bye,
A top comes a-spinning into your life
And youve reached a height
Threatening destruction in a way that we know too well
Sitting on the limb of love with my friends
Sitting here all alone.
Life without malice can you call this bluff
And say without knowing its hard enough,
Bye, bye,
A top comes a-spinning into your life
And youve reached a height
Life without malice can you call this bluff
And say without knowing its hard enough,
Bye, bye,
Bye, bye.

Ludicrous vanity
Admittedly encircled
By His might
Yet we appeal
To hubris and pride
He dotes on us
Despite our disgrace, vice
Yet we cling
To revenge and malice

Though malice may darken truth, it cannot put it out.
"Oh," replied his patient, with no malice aforethought, "he told me to come and see you."
Malice is always authentic and sincere.
