I
The signs are as clear as they get:
Shiva dances wildfire in our western states.
The Amazon’s fierce flames
still tear oxygen from the unsuspecting air.
8 million acres of the Australian bush
decimated
(animals are rarely counted)
In this world-sequestered time of plague
fever rages in the bodies of the afflicted
over one-hundred-million deaths in our country alone
Economies and governments reel
The evil king prepares his fascist machine in plain sight
Cruelty and selfishness abound
Nothing holds
The night convoy presses ever northward
hypnotic lights entrancing the sign readers
promising full passage to the night circus
(Should we have followed?)
Women, at this late stage,
begin to find our voices
still, all seems lost
II
Here mountains stand
in perfect equanimity
rendering strength to all who wish
Pine and spruce offer
Roots, ground, and stature
Stand now
as tree and mountain
stand against the storm
bending with the winds.
Take your sensitivity
from the Mountain Iris
as she moves to the subtle breeze.
Take strength and sturdiness
swords against complacency
Do not remain silent.
Do not remain inactive.
Right speech and right-action demand the truth
Speak March Communicate
Place yourself firmly within this cycle
This is the time of the great turning
Do not quit your inner work!
