of the universe may have less character
than we expect 'him' to have, it is up to us
to decide whether such a lack of character
is potentially criminal, benign, or ineffectual
then 'his' would be human equivalent.

When in doubt check in with his programming
and programmer and remember that humans
are just as much programmed creatures,
where often they praise each other for when
the programming 'goes wrong', and we call it

Bad Recycling

Just imagine if all the hate in each individual
on a particular land mass were combined,
rather than each hater being isolated by the distance
that s/he had to keep to sensibly contain their hate
from the object of their hatred.

The combination would become
far more than the sum of it's parts.
The land mass would become a country
with hard boundaries with other countries.

Whole new categories of false divisions
would be created out of the emotional anti-matter
which, originally, nobody knew what to do with.

It would be the ultimate in bad recycling.
