When does it finally become too much waste to sit and shake our heads at what unfolds on the screen? When do we step right into the story? When do we finally see that there is no us, no them? When do we become many voices raised in unison, many paths to single destiny? When does it finally matter more to reach in and out and up than always down, farther away? When do we know how much we are missing by retreating again to ever-shrinking cocoons?

The devils thrid eye. Wastes many lives.
A good go do it. Not thinks about it. Just do it.
Less it is ever decreasing circles...

Sticking our head in the sand only shows that our rear end needs a good kick. Well done and I hope we heed your words of wisdom.

This is packed with powerful questions, Dawn and some which we have been asking for way too long. We are humans first and we need to come to grips with that and put our differences aside for the benefit of the greater good. We are so trapped within the daily "stuff" that we forget what our real purposes are. Excellent writing!
Take care,
Sherry

Excellent questions Dawn! I wish I had the answers! The only one I know isn't accepted by everyone, that is we are all one in Creator and if we followed His plan, your questions would be moot! Superb work, love the form!

outstanding poem, Dawn! when will mankind comes to terms with its evolving destiny that encompasses each and every soul? once its has freed itself from its confining and self-degrading mentality ... guess there's lots of evolving to do ...
