What is the big picture?

the inverted picture seems to be
EARTH tipped precariously
towards destruction

humankind,
mostly male
sees fit to play with FIRE

"we cannot help ourselves,"
they say

"his gun is not bigger than mine
he thinks he owns the land, the goods
I should have my share, his share"

the rest of humankind,
women and all children
must live with these
decisions
gone WILD

until those of the human RACE
with a sense of the
larger picture

stop the maddness
quiet the savagery
and speak from a PLACE

of wisdom and GRACE

male or female
it matters not

we, together
must find
our voice
of REASON

EARTH'S season
with humankind
demands it.

I feel like writing again

I haven't written in so long and I miss the feeling I always get when I have published something to my blog. So here goes......

Wrapped in orange cloth
swirling, twirling
spinning
in a tight circle


Your mantle
envelopes me
in safety
I have no fear here
next to you

You do this for me
when I am feeling
vulnerable

You wrap EARTH
in your mantle
at least, that's
the imagery
I see

ORANGE is the
color of your mantle

O, Shekinah
