cryptic wonders

or cosmic blunders?

the minds seething with hatred for religion
a child's resentment over an absent Father
a Father that beats you once in awhile/kills all the ones you love
spews volcanic fires/black clouds of confusion/takes jobs and houses and kids and dogs

the God of Peace Become The Club
 of The Self-Righteous/the stone thrown
from all sides come the missiles
by everyone
for their 'other'
the yellow man or the black man or the blue man or the red man
this or that localized manifestation of the Dark Side
our hatred attracts the hatred of others until everybody got somebody they feel
they will lose something of themselves
if they do not hate
with the fire of an innocent accused and convicted

the Palestinian womyn tells me She wants all of their land back
that any Jew in Israel supports the Zionist Land Grab

I read her anger and tell her I will pray for the innocents on all sides
the victims of History
the daughters should not bear the sins of their Fathers
The daughters should not bear the sins of others Fathers
My readings are filled with injustices that can never be undone

the USA is an Indian Burial Ground
96% of the people who lived on this continent died
Hundreds of cultures
Languages and ways and knowledge and science and religion
gone
minds
like ours
people like us
same moon wonder/child's laughter/mother's love

around the Globe the cry for soldiers
 to seek justice
drowns out the talk of peace
some supermen to come in and set things right

criminals entrenched in governments around the world
an Entitled Elite Hoarding Aplenty and keeping themselves
forever in the garden of luxury
Every army in the world
used by profiteers/promoted/encouraged by arms companies
armed missionaries trying to spread a bit of the american way
heroes trying to stop revenge attacks
of those who have been oppressed
hunted
abandoned again and again after being created and used by our armed forces
exploding humans
telling their enemies
For This I Will Give My Life
FOR THIS YOU DIE

I am wounded and confused and thinking about tombstones
seeing the entire world covered by a cemetery... the last gesture
of future humans who have to abandoned their spoiled planet
