Inundated by the Spirit of Love


A play is on my mind. A play set in the near future. Humankind has been inundated by the spirit of Love and no one is afraid to speak up, to forgive another for what they've done, to Love another in spite of their flaws, to love another in spite of their inability to Love back to the degree with which it's given...

A play with loving characters trying to maintain Love's needs while simultaneously diminishing human want...

The play will be set in present day, oddly enough.

An experiment of the spirit.

For instance a character named Grief might ask,

GRIEF: Why do we grieve over loved ones who've passed only to imagine them somewhere besides inside of us?

And another named Deed might answer with a question,

DEED: Are they not also in our walk, in our spirit, that we might share their love with others?

And Life might say,

LIFE: Too many pass on before they recognize their path, too many trample upon it without regard to the fullness of Love just beneath their feet, Home, the (H)eartH of Creation...

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 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
