Someday not soon enough...




there will be an awakening,
a recovery of sudden awareness
as if rescued from a deep drugged trance
We will be revulsed at the sight
of that we have done
at the poured blood of innocent life
Wet upon our hands

It will come like a wish,
and a nightmare will face us
awakened to what we have allowed,
the senseless slaughter of so many to enrich and amuse so few...
guns and violence

Someday not soon enough, to keep more innocents
alive and in the world
to bathe in the miracles of abundant life
a sad glad day will be, someday…
 not soon enough
