ALL @THE SAME TIME

Sunbaked Australia,rainy Yorkshire,heated Texas
She takes her mother's ashes to homeland Bolivian Andes
Oil seeps into corporate politico selfserving speeches
Bob Dylan,Crowded House and we love Madeleine Mercier@Vinnys
Temple poets align for a CAC of pinwheel peace Thursday
Gardens gulp our need for watering seeds daily
Bahai Center prepares for a night of peace poetry Saturday
while wars on borders inflame,erupt,kill us by degrees
Simultaneously,compounding,opposites in canoes
3D cartoons,4G telephones,2D unemployment stats
Information censored while Wikileaks cries out
Random goodwill lifts and levitates
Gifts of consciousness and time add to our shopping carts
Wheel ,birds,your names are invocations stolen
Your wings above this oilsoaked ocean
When you land,gravity claims a smaller part of you
While you sing each to each,we will imitate you
Spirit in flesh,floods ,famine,blight-all at once
in our lives/no separation /our flight /formation
our wings are growing/lines commingling
alchemical soup/elemental chanting
what attracts us to each other is
these times we lioe within..
