We Are Being, We Are The Earth
—————————
We become dualistic in youth
Putting one against the other
Establishing social norms
Constructed ideas of humans
Race and gender explained as fact
A fallacy of powers built before
We camp in our valleys
Climbing mountains of hope
Facing weather stormy unfair
Unbalanced breaking beyond
Crying for a voice
Voicing our crying
Soap boxes wobbly reactionary
Revolution of convenience
“We still gotta work”
“We can’t be too different”
“We must adult like adults”
Who are the adults?
Another construct given life
That life taking ours
Death
Foretold in history
Western only apply
Our systems, science and social orders
Arbitrary axioms or apathy
But hope is real
As much as it is not
It’s lives as ghosts around
Sleeping dormant until needed
Burning embers to scorch the soil
Of old ways long instilled
We are alive
We are being
We are constant birth
We are connected beyond
In all life we breathe deep
No linear straight line
It’s all a circle
We return to where we came
The earth
