WHISPER THE WIND  (original draft)  (7-5-11, 3:00pm, Palm Springs, California)

   
whisper the wind    
breathe the sky    
seize    
and wholly embrace    
the night    
ask the moon    
beg the sun    
plead the stars    
to appease    
whatever gods    
there are    
here or beyond    
you may either    
choose to believe in    
or not    
lest you speak    
to the god    
you are    
found within    
this dream of all    
to amend and heal    
what harm    
weve done    
individually and collectively    
over time    
in our self destructive    
species    
relatively brief history here    
ever increasingly    
for oh so very long    
as this    
broken whole we are    
upon and to    
our sacred mother earth    
time now    
to put aside all pride    
of self    
of blinded mind    
and ego    
so we each    
one and all    
can do our part    
to turn our self destructive    
dead end ways    
around    
before its far too late    
beyond    
our and all lifes    
final    
irreversibly intractable    
critical mass s tipping point    
of no return    
of all we know    
of all we have    
of all which we    
and all things are    
that is    
if weve not already    
gone too far beyond    
our human reach    
and grasp    
of that final    
delusional    
last ditch    
impotent hope    
for we all    
very well    
may have already now    
as an unsustainable species    
completely    
run out of    
anymore proverbial rope    
but despite that unthinkably    
unconscionable    
apocalyptical    
yet increasingly probable    
potential    
final outcome    
and from the way    
everythings still going    
and the way    
things still presently    
look and are    
everywhere currently    
in our rapidly failing    
dying world    
even so still    
the way i see it    
weve all nothing left to lose    
so why not at least    
just choose    
to simply    
more positively    
and optimistically    
try to visualize    
and believe    
that such a simple    
conscious choice and shift    
in our individual
as well as
in our
collective species    
innermost awareness s    
higher consciousness s    
vibrational frequency s    
collectively amassed    
universally resonant    
energy and belief    
might possibly still be able    
to miraculously transcend    
such an unthinkably    
tragic    
truly final outcome    
for us all    
or must such    
apathetic    
ego blinded darkness    
ultimately    
swallow all    
before we choose    
individually    
and as a unified    
collective    
greater whole    
to co create    
and seize some brighter lights    
newly awakened    
dawn like spread    
perhaps into    
some even greater    
newly manifested    
more enlightened    
better world    
still yet    
to possibly    
come  
but from  
the looks  
of everything  
thus far  
up to now  
with the lack  
of any sufficient  
enough action  
not being  
taken  
nor done  
the hopes  
of any such  
positive  
turn around  
outcome  
increasingly seem  
to be
to me
even more
likey so  
just as  
possibly  
not
