in the news today

Antarctic ice melt is the highest it has been in 1,000 years.
Our seas are rising.
Still, you go on
chasing your tail,
running after illusion,
as though the today we know
is the tomorrow that is to come.

In the news today,
the Bees are disappearing,
colony collapse disorder is a reality,
threatening humanity's ability to thrive.
Still, you go on,
purporting that there is only one way,
only one God - a flimsy, green back dollar.

The chaos and the mayhem are reported
and received as just another day's passing,
our Earth spinning upon its own axis
and revolving around the Sun
/Son,
yet what we don't hear or read or see or feel
are the daily miracles, the abundance of LOVE
that is our birthright
and is taking place right this very moment.

"I love you,"
says your Mother.

And the killings and the shootings,
the war and the destruction
just keep on coming,
and we cry and we stifle our real emotion,
because all are judged at Heaven's gate
and there is no return pass.

Or, is there?

A true Father doesn't judge.
He loves just as unconditionally as his Feminine counterpart.

And, here your Sister sits,
waiting for you to AWAKE
and embody your namesake.

Only time will tell
our story
a tale that we can re-write now
you with your sharp, ball-pointed spear
and me with my soft, red-hot passion
only time will tell...

the real news today.
