Build and Plant

"Build houses and dwell in them;
plant gardens and eat their fruit"
- Jeremiah 29:5

This is the difference between the Jedi and the Sith...
To be a Jedi is to provide
To be a Sith is to divide

To be a Jedi is to construct
To be a Sith is to destruct

To be a Jedi is to salvage
To be a Sith is to damage

To be a Jedi is to uphold confidence
To be a Sith is to uphold diffidence

To be a Jedi is to protect peace
To be a Sith is to deflect peace

The Jedi build and dwell
The Sith destroy and fell

The Jedi plant and eat
The Sith plunder and cheat

The choice remains with you..
Conquer the dark side of the Force
whenever it comes tempting you

FEAR...
False Evidence Appears Real

That was how Anakin was tempted...

An attractive offer the Dark Lord Palpatine did make
By unnatural means Anakin was willing to undertake
Anything that would keep his dear Padme alive...

But alas! He sold his soul to the Sith!
And there began his descent into living hell
Only to culminate in a fateful duel...

Obi-Wan could not win him back
All the Jedi came under attack...
Darkness pervaded
Darkness invaded...

Encased in mask and machine
The poor soul of Anakin
Now named Darth Vader
Subservient to the Emperor...

Till Young Skywalker came
And defeated the false claim
That Anakin was no more good
But believed all he could

And there released his father's pain
Into the Light again
Into peace Anakin did finally die
To live again once more with the Jedi...

And so that is how life is

May the Force be with you
