Well, I've finally written a new poem to share. I'll just let the poem speak for itself.

Here's a link to the illustrated version, then I'll put the text here in case Wondersmith West won't load for anyone:

No Unkind Thoughts

Alice C. Bateman
July 7, 2005

My head is busy telling me
No unkind thoughts now, pretty please
Delete cross words as they appear
Don't think them, speak them, let them near

This must be pretty vital
In the universal scheme
I think that this phrase first appeared
Somewhere in last night's dreams

No unkind thoughts, no unkind thoughts
Well I am not unkind
But monitoring my thoughts I see
Sometimes they are quite blind

'You stupid dog, just move, darn cat'
Silly little thoughts like that
That have a negative intent
I think those are the thoughts 'He' meant

'You rotten driver, dratted kid'
We've all had our thoughts like this
But apparently we have to stop
On orders from the Very Top

The world must need a positive state
To transform itself out of hate
Where bombings are the daily dread
And too many people wake up dead
