Felix,
he knows
many ways
to handle hate.  

One of them is not
with kid gloves.  

No!

Felix uses rubber gloves
to handle hate.  

That way,
he’s not contaminated
by the reprehensible nature
of the beast.

Oh,

he’s seen its ugly face
so many times.  

Hate’s looked down
its pointy nose at him,
and tried to make him
feel small.  

Felix simply dons
his rubber gloves,
and dispatches
the filthy beast
forthwith.

Bobby

I'm lovin' Felix Bobby, he handles things so well all things considered....

I remember watching Cassius Clay( prefer that to M. Ali) when I was a kid & I'm sure he was wearing those gloves too....

Best

Alison,

Thanks Hon.  Yes, Felix knows what it's all about.  He wasn't born yesterday.

James,

You got it buddy.  Never handle hate with kid gloves.

I mean, why mess up a pair of expensive gloves.
