Magnanimity is a poem that reflects growing older and the feelings of panic and fear that surrounded us as we grow up that ease away over time because “it” hasn’t happened and we don’t want to think about these possibilities happening anymore. Perhaps modern life has less focus on church-going or religious practices and many don’t feel that religion has any purpose, certainly not as a backup plan when facing earthly dangers, and then again religion itself can be toxic and dangerous. It’s as if we have become more callous in a “getting-over-it” way and humanity has, in the meantime and as long habit, solved nothing when it comes to ending wars and strife.
