Transformation of Evil

Pettiness
Mistaken judgments
Soft pedalled venality

Base betrayal
Bribing, blackmail
Egoism, vanity

Whatever it is
Which by which
I find self surrounded be

I do not
Upon its native
Level tend to leave it be

But make a gift
Of its uplift
Vibrationally

Lessons earned
By others learned
My timely word may help them see

I lift it
From its rocky bed
And turn it into poetry
