transmission,awakening,reception,response

wordboat leaves in water float in bowls of consciousness
cages for some,saplings for young,trees of elders
tree does not need to know it is a tree.Bulldozer does!
water knows when it is fracked.wordflags wavewarniongs!
DO! DO NOT! DO NOT GO! DO NOT GO HERE!GO!
Sacredness Everywhere!Still these bootwords plod on,plod on

You of art and paint and sculpture may say -IMAGE!
Special effects,3D,mirages,hallucinations distract us
from the reason and purpose of our linked existences
Yantras might entrance us.Signs on walls in caves initiation
Still we use words to share among us just what these symbol icons mean

Silences will not save us.They,too,are languages!(w/accents,dialects,modes
to take us deeper into meditation or distract us with fear or anger
So many silences lost to us-deep forest,deep cave,aloneness
Between us,silences are emotional punctuation(RESPOND to this!

You will leave these words unconvinced/that your words are adequate
Mysteries and riddles,Bibles,Korans,Gitas clash in Crusading translations
Actions speak louder-jihad,fatwa,pogrom! Words follow after-
to warn,console,heal,chant,pray,beg ,sing-and script new Paradises
