FAILURE'S MOURNING

---(“Iran’s Raisi promises retaliation at funeral for victims of twin bombings”)---
  
Mourn our begetting of war! We need find our way free of it! Peace is within all things and we don’t think it matters? That it means something? Our purpose is to know, not to be taught, but to know it, before instruction.
  
When all is set to balance, we’ll be going the same way and we will know ourselves and war will end, end at our rising together as the collective keeper of the PEACE. Let us give honor to what we truly are, not these things that we become when we go spiritually blind, but let us honor that which lives! That which has form, for we have battled in the void too long, it is time for Peace to come from our rising! For us there is PEACE born within our keeper, then, there’s the PEACE that has always been here outside of us.
  
ONE is the only number, the whole of ALL things, united by design.
   
---(“Biden blasts Trump as a ‘despicable’ danger to democracy”)---
   
The charade is played across party lines and speeches, everyone is scripted, and we the people following along like karaoke, across any and all lines that weren’t drawn by money, across the water, on the shore, floating in the air along with us, it’s our witless contribution to all of the beautiful things that float here.
  
---(“A Houston company is sending cremated remains to the moon. Navajo Nation says it is 'desecration' “)---
  
OUR COVID.
OUR FLU.
VACCINE.
OUR WAR.
OUR VIOLENCE.
OUR VANISHING.
OUR EXTINCTION.
NOT OUR PEACE,
OUR LAST HURRAH!
Had we ushered it in, it would have been ours to witness, we’re causing peace to arrive with its full weight upon us and even our thunderous wars don’t have the power to hold it back.
Annihilated
Done away with
Dispatched
Cremated.
The thumping drum has purpose outside of its sound, the drum fills the gap in our thoughts, best we respect it by having nothing but loving thoughts of the living, respect is not a rule, it is naturally born, for if we were being ourselves, we’d see our dilemma and do everything in our power to STOP.
ME - WE
What is ME minus WE?
What is WE minus ME?
  
We are all WE, just as we’re all a ME, like Here and Now. The only way that it has ever been and ever will be, ME is a farce, there’s only WE, written within our ME. It is not survival of the fittest, it is survival as a collective ONE, otherwise we’ll be walking into the next lifespan as blind as we are now to our mistake, WE is the collection of us, ME is our “individual” selves, but there is no individual WE. Let’s do it NOW, this Here and Now, not the there and then that has us imagining an end to this experience, but we wouldn’t know it next time either and we would all make the exact same mistakes. Take it away from noise and rage, we’ve tried that since the first weapon, let’s give it over to peace, for peace reigns here, where it was meant to be.
  
(What was meant to be?)
  
The experience of the fullness of Peace, we're all that stands in our way Here and Now, otherwise, we’ve nowhere to be, but at war, not there and then, for neither exist, so it's NOW that we are failing to learn.

ROOT OF

"For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs." __1 Timothy 6:10 It is MONEY, not the LOVE of it that is the issue, the true problem. Love, in and of itself, is never a problem, WANT and NEED, or better yet- the WANT and the conundrum of its very REQUIREMENT for our survival IS the problem, it's creation and our blind use of it is logically the ROOT. In other words, let's leave LOVE out of it altogether and deal with the facts instead. If money were not made by us as a requirement for our survival, we'd find ourselves in a much better position to argue of its need and our want of it. MRP Peace and Love © 2015 Mark Richard Prime

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
