| Storm of Conscience |
Frayed and exhausted here at the edge.
Maliciousness never seems to run out of energy.
There isn’t a moment of quiet.
Earth is dying.
Soulless people doing Soulless things.
If it is a “cave of ignorance,” as Plato says,
then it is a cave of our own making,
and it lives inside us.

I don’t know how much more I can take.
I can no longer stomach the news.
The team I loved for forty years loves treason,
mendacity, hatred, and a useless despot.
The sky is burning.
The oceans are boiling.

I’ve been around long enough
to see it with my own eyes:
people destroying their spirits to fit in,
to make money,
to abuse their children,
to gain approval at work
to see it with my own eyes:
people destroying their spirits to fit in,
to make money,
to abuse their children,
to gain approval at work
and at church.
It isn’t ugly. It’s beyond ugly.There is no proper word for it
in any language anywhere.
