Holiday Prayer



'Can do whatever
I want
whenever I want to'
prevailing consciousness
of the USA
mad hatters
that we are

The corporatists
that run this
show
don't feel
like they
have to pay
any consequences
arrogance
of power
'we are the dominant
ones
and we can dictate'

The logic of domination
and empire
is absurd
a bad poker player
with a bad hand

How do we
counter this
dark empire?

What can
one person
actually do?

We each
are an interdependent
living creature
with tremendous beauty
and diversity

must take
greater strides
on the path toward
resistance to global corporate empire
resistance to arrogance

full spectrum nonviolent resistance
becomes
part of our lives
like breathing
and heartbeat
every cell
focused on
survival
peace
and
justice

Community,
global
this time,
rushes
to build
the fires of light
to reverse
the darkness

best wishes to all
I can see
your fire in the
night
