This eloquent call to arms is beautiful and powerful. You have raised my consciousness, and I will do my part to help.

Thanks for the wake-up call……….

My favorite lines:

I could look away, but why?
It’d be damn impossible to deny
Truth ain’t about to say goodbye
No matter how much we lie

I love this and what you do with it.
Peace

oh how I love this. “Is our staggering self-absorption compassion’s rival?”….oh so love that line, and yes, I think so. Once again, you have put some deep compassionate, passionate thoughts together in a beautiful poem. xo

Amazing Belinda – you are a master wordsmith extraordinaire. How you spun those complex words and made it all work together in this piece is quite brilliant. I said it last time and I will say it again, I want to see so much more of this writing of yours.

What a message you deliver through your words too. What a terrible catastrophe.
