DEATH RATTLE ROAR

DEATH RATTLE ROAR
THE WOLF AT THE DOOR
THE FEAR OF DEATH
A FACTOR NO MORE.

I LIVED I'VE DIED
A THOUSAND TIMES
WITH EACH BREATH
I KNOW THE SIGNS.

I KNOW ITS FACE
BEEN IN THAT SPACE
INTO THE VOID 
WITHOUT A TRACE

NOW JUST A CLOUD
LIVING OUT LOUD
A MIST A VAPOR
A DEATH RATTLE ROAR.

TRIBALISM WILL SURELY KILL US ALL

Like a pack of hungry wolves, we seek to eat and destroy our prey. That hunger that thirst that cannot be satisfied can eat us alive. When some of us have all that we need we want more. More than we can ever use. More and more and more that is our mantra. When disasters happen, we are instructed to consume more for the cause. But that is only instinct. However, it does not serve the good, our good or the collective good or the greater good. Our economic system is based on consumption. More hunter than a gatherer. We rely on a cheap source of energy that destroys the environment when new economies can build on newer more sustainable and environmentally friendly renewable forms of energy i.e. solar, winds, waves. We can leverage what is already there. That is Humane – for us and our home. Animals take care of their homes, dens, hives, nests, we destroy and spoil what was given us with our never-ending appetites.   Preservation and now restoration must be our focus les...

THE BATTLE BETWEEN HEART & MIND

In these tumultuous times with so much division and vitriol, it is paramount that we be mindful of what is in our minds and where our thoughts go when we are moved emotionally. Because when we think with our hearts, we are not likely to apply reason and logic and may not acknowledge the truth but embrace the truth of how we want it to be from our own bias colored perspective.                         What this comes down to is that we are quick to judge without having context or facts. We are operating from a preconceived strongly held belief that we are likely to take as gospel. We judge the first impression and everything that follows. We are stuck in a rigid non-pliable way of seeing because we have experienced something in the past which leaves us afraid of the unknown of the future, so we become static and immovable in the present. If we could only be...

THE STRUGGLE IS REALIZED.

-
You cannot heal or be healed until you know what ails you. You cannot fix something until you determine what is broken. Until what bedevils us is realized there is no growth, healing, or progress. We must be aware of our thoughts, feelings, and actions. Especially when communication breaks down! Between partners, friends, family communities and nations if not addressed everything stagnates and festers. Situations go from bad to worse, from the status quo to the status no, real quick and the interested parties become antagonistic. Things back up and then stack up and become constipated then septic and everyone and everything becomes polluted and things begin to break down then deteriorate. If we are not in alignment we suffer and struggle. When our hearts, minds, and wills are not working together they are at odds and we feel the pain. If we cannot accept how things are we suffer and agonize over it and make a bad situation worse and make it that much harder to rectify. Unless th...
