There was a time that I can remember
when we brought flowers to the protest march
And offered them to the police carrying guns and clubs in their riot gear
Recognizing "they" were "us"
Just human beings wanting to be happy too
Careful not to make the other into the enemy. How could we be dreaming and creating a world without violence, if we had the intention to cause violence or harm to others?
There was real power in that.
The Buddha said: "In this world hate never yet dispelled hate. Only love dispels hate. This is the law. Ancient and inexhaustible."
The Dream is still alive
in the Heart of our Earth Mother
Let Her awaken the Dream again
in the hearts of men and women
