How Long Now


How long have I been asleep, again?

(Silence. Sound. Love.)

Where is our beautiful living and breathing air? Where is our laughing water and our sacred soil? Isn't it time to give it all back to the eartH, in this stage of our existence? Haven't our beliefs nearly toppled the HeartH's crown? Are we not sufficiently sated at having held the knife up to the (H)eartH's veins that she cannot sense our Love, doesn't find our thankfulness, gratitude and a much lessening joy at how we behaved at Home?

Please leave your thoughts as crumbs for this belief, as testament to your acknowledgement that these words did make you think, because they're also yours! I merely scribe the winding experience, this spiritual dance, allowing the spirit of Love to speak-out as it sees fit, not me.

I, not i, have been afraid long enough. I am speaking out, and this is just one of the forums I am choosing from in which to speak.

I am fully non-violent. I cannot raise my hand up to another and remain loving, save for just to say hi...

(Traffic!)

sdrawkcaB nruT (Turn Backwards)

I have been witness to the four pillars and see no reason to carry death there. Doesn’t the world know that life moves for more than just the sons of Abraham? O! I see the stunned throats floating by in the dusk to their stiff-limbed sleep as metal rains down over the Jordan’s western prophet, children dying there. I am here, waiting, breathing in the dusk under the shadow of the patriarch, asking, can we again build the shrine inside the soul and leave our flesh to time? © 2008 mrp/thepoetryman

Per Plex Ed

            PER+PLEX-ED When you haven’t heard the truth in so long, when you do, it rings a most familiar s ong. That’s the human song, the truth rolling out exactly when it should.      (If a truth is told and nobody is around to hear it, does it make a sound only to the one that spoke it?)    Yes, but our ears aren’t strong enough to hear it.     [a perplexed silence] © 2017 Mark Richard Prime
