Because neither hatred nor enmity are the issue so much as is the submerging
of human substance in something that doesn't look like the cycle of war and
peace.

As to being chosen by enemies: where argument continues to be the technique,
there must be something to argue with.

What then is The Enemy of all 'the enemies'? Is it the act of sacrifice and
the gift? Is it the cycle of war and peace? Or is it that objectile whose
uncanny familiarity promises to undo them all?

This ignites our future collective

War-and-peace-complicating-over-and-over-amidst-elsewise

Where 'else-wise' is just better

The question from my previous post might then be: Assuming there is anything
other than war then peace and that 'it' would be preferable to them, what
angle of complication would fold both amidst the other such that the
preferable would capture and overpower?
