evening of the solstice---soon to stand beneath the magic moon---butterflies still surround the pond and of course the snakes still slither about in the weeds----ancestors join around a fire and speak of us---we used to be the future but now we are the present----the future waits and ----watches----high in the oak sits a hawk over there in a pine is an owl----we gather together on this solstice evening
we gather to ask guidance from the ancestors
we gather to ask wisdom from nature
we gather to seek strength in solidarity
we gather to ask wisdom from nature
we gather to seek strength in solidarity
i stand alone at the treeline---weeping
the senate has failed to pass even one measure that would address gun violence---
the senate has failed to pass even one measure that would address gun violence---
i am ashamed to stand before the future
somewhere
someone loves enough
someone loves enough
somewhere
someone believes enough
someone believes enough
somewhere
come-
-take my hand---
help me to join the others and fight
-take my hand---
help me to join the others and fight
blessings
