Sacred Activism
7/24/11
It may seem Americans are devoid
of giving back to troubled society
in capitalist world of winners, losers,
where everyone's busy living egocentric life
trying to insure immediate individual survival,
still believing in separation and enemies
that create 'us versus them' mentality
whether with plants, animals, other humans,
constantly wondering what will 'bite them'
when perceiving surroundings as hostilely unfriendly,
yet, there are those seeing otherwise
who recognize interrelated divinely cooperative Universe
united by light, love, joy, beauty,
behind, underneath, in all human distortions,
witnessing the dimly lit spirit inhabiting
every person living in quiet desperation
having been there, and escaped sentence
to be forever imprisoned by fallacies
prior generations imbedded in 'collective consciousness',
they want to be of service
brightening the 'life force flame' waiting
for encouragement to blaze in fullness
from seat of powerful 'soul authority',
acting as kindling, mirroring each other
through appreciation, kindness, compassion, becoming allies
joining superordinate goal deemed 'sacred activism'.
