Why do we need a government–to?

Why do we need a government—the peoples’ servant—to tell us whether a person has a right to be?

What’s to fear?

What’s to fear
if there’s an ear
to hear
here?

Unless we hear?

What would the voiceless
Say
Unless we hear?

Footprints in the Windsm # 1178–The Great Rift

Footprints in the Windsm # 1178

The Great Rift
Who will heal the great rift
between those with money & those without?
between those with power & those without?
between those with voices & those without?
between Republicans and Democrats?
between Republicans and Republicans?
between neighbor and neighbor?
between you and me?
Separation is a lie
There is no hero to heal us
except you & me
together
We must stitch & stitch
for fifty years, a hundred, more
keep telling each other
& every other
healing is the way
healing is the only way


Please pass it on.

If you only look in one direction….

If you only look one direction, you might just get clobbered by something from one of the other 359.

Sleep while the work is done?

There is larger and there is smaller in life. We cannot be sure that larger will prevail; we must get to work. We can choose: some choose death and evil and selfishness; and some choose life and good and the whole. The truth is we cannot tell which will ultimately prevail, if either does; we can only choose and get to work to make it happen, or sleep while the work is done.
