33 poets in this one night's life raft

we are seeking Rescue Remedies-
some sing to allow harmonies to arise
some bring in ancient gods and goddesses
to attest to the need for contemporaneity
One or two improvise/collaborate
The boat rocks with shakers in the night
waves of peaceful vibrations echo and flow
until remedies and panaceas (each with our name upon them
are embossed upon this specific evening
and all stars outside can wait
while human beamings attest to being human enough
to need to love each other in the trust
that by making waves,progress can be made
This is still tonight-each one took home
a piece of peace that collectively adds up
to more than a desire for future bliss
More already here in this moment specifically
We are that boat,these waves
these voices calling each to each
Tonight is proof of peace-we have revived
more than possibilities.We smile with relief
Now for the seas,oceans,Tsunamis,currents
This island earth hears-and responds
This is who we really are-
each of us together in this one night's life raft...
