Fragile

we are..

stuttering towards our end resolve

whilst Nature

inexorably knowing its own course

will carve it ways throughout

our collective psyche

humanity is like a fragile soprano

amidst machine gun fire

of the rising force

of cycles that

fulfil themselves

as a single leaf falls

shall so the human race

I once told a film director

that  the poles will shift

and the north shall be south

all of which is but a shift

of the axis of the poles

fragile..we are

and because of our fragility

humanity will transmute

and find a new

garden upon which to till

an ancient soil

Life has its own path

and every species may join the  journey as best it can

fragile, we are…

yet we are born of life

from the first earth rise

in countless futures ago

celebrate

who you are

and where you have been

in your life til now

celebrate the heartache and the challenges

the beauties and the joy

celebrate the experiences

that you have every day

for nothing is mundane

and all that there is

is full of life’s voice

that sings of celebration

and renewal

we are

that which

others feel

we are that which others

hope to be

we are the humidity of humanity

the sweat of the collective whole

each drop an innocent light

in search of innocence

we are that which we most admire

that which we despise

we are, each of the other

a causal link

each other’s

birth, death and

release

from ignorance

we are

what hurts one

always hurts the other

pain and suffering can often be

like a slow changing in the landscape

so used to our surroundings

we  do not notice

the erosion

we are climate change

and the shortening seasons

we are the diminishing species

and the evolving planet

we are

the origins of humankind

do not dwell in the past

but in the rhapsody of the mitochondrial ‘now’

in the thrum and rush of the human swell

the jostling and bruising of life’s long pulse

in the windswept plains of dreaming

do not look to bones of the ancestors that are in dust and lament

but to their bones that coexist in your breath

the perfect view

the greatest landscape

the most breathtaking

vista

is inside of you

the wonders of nature were not made for you to admire

but for themselves as a system of being

look inside

the world of

You

and there you will see

the perfect view

the everlasting

cycle of becoming and being

the fire of life

that is

You

If you seek to save the ecology of the planet

you are saving your self

if you seek to save society

you are saving your self

if you seek to love others

you seek to love your self

if you seek encourage others to live simply

then you seek to do that for your self

all of these are lenses upon

which to see the

perfect view

the fleeting perfume

the harmonious chord

that springs

(in A major to G minor to those that can hear)

from the perfect view

Peace is to be found

where you are

whatever your circumstance

whatever you think or feel

peace is to be found

in your breath

heartbeat

in the ground

under your feet

in the space around you

peace dwells

in everything

slowly

surely

quietly

the right actions

are been taken

so that the accords

shall be made

correct

In dreams

you can see

all the time

that stitches your life

unravel and by that cast a new design

if you catch your dreams on the inward breath

between waking and sleeping

and with a long breath out

you can stitch your life again

sewn by breath dreams and intention

for you are eternal magic in

a mortal urn

living,dying

in dreams.in life

in turning

to return

between the

two

in dreams

you can find

a door

to the place of non-dreaming

of not sleeping

of being and becoming

awake
