Note: the translation of your poem may vary, so check the word choices before answering.
In the first stanza, the personification of hatred creates an image of a predator, a creature able to "vault" obstacles. Words like "vault," "pounce" and "track" add to this image. (Your translation might have "regards," "leaps," and "overtakes" -- but the idea is the same).
Personification is used later in the poem to contrast hatred with compassion, brotherhood, and doubt. Hatred, she writes "never tires" of being an executioner. Furthermore, it's "always ready," even if it must wait. In this way, he can wait for compassion and brotherhood to give way to violence.
Brotherhood, compassion (or empathy, depending on the translation) and doubt, she says, are "sluggish" and do not compel people to act in the way hatred does.
In the book <em>Bridge to Terabithia</em>, we meet Jess. Jess is a boy who struggles with confidence, and he does not take a lot of pride in most things he does. However, one thing that he is very proud of is the fact that he is an extremely good runner. At the beginning of the year, he is ready to become the number one runner in his grade. However, when Leslie arrives, she defeats him.
Initially, Jess is very upset about this loss, and he cannot seem to find a way to recover. However, he is eventually able to console himself, as this experience leads him to meet Leslie, who ends up becoming his best friend.
