AFFECTATION'S NATURE


Does the weather change accordingly?

(According to what?)

Everything done and not done that damages Home.

(You mean to tell me that you believe how we treat the earth is what causes the weather?)

No. Not make the weather, but there is no question we affect it with our pollution.

(Conspiracy theorist.)

No, but if the soil is impacted by our allowance of our toxins, then it stands to reason that we also affect the air in much the same way. The soil stops producing as it had before the toxins, and the air makes its way to all things, so what we put in the air will and has found its way back to us and to everywhere by its very nature.

(Okay. What of the water?)

Same thing. Our water is our elixir, it is 70% of what makes humankind and the (H)eartH is comprised of around 80% water, so it stands to reason that we would benefit from cleansing our mess, before we get too proud of our beliefs. Our actuality needs our attention, before what we believe in has no stage to deliver its speech...

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
