Percentages

Percentages

an aspect of time is percentages
we’re attached to our lists, our appendages
we divide up our time as days, minutes or hours
then decide on implementing our time-saving powers

a percentage of time to be assigned to a task
cannot be determined until a wider perspective is cast
we must know of the scope of the project ensuing
and what priority it has in all that we’re doing

scope, percentage and priority
can be influenced by loyalty
our devotion to service
and our life’s true purpose

and as we begin
a new day and spin
the yarn and the making
the agreements we’re baking
we recognize the truth
we need no explanation or proof

oneness cannot be divided
percentages have collided
it is aspects that create
the union of diversity we make

and our intention to be
and the way that we see
will determine the joining
and the words we are coining
to express All That Is

Banking Expired

Banking Expired

the ways of the old
when we traded in gold
now expired

the ways of the past
when cheques replaced cash
now expired

the ways then elastic
cash replaced by plastic
now expired

the ways much more recent
interest rates on the descent
now expired

the ways we’ve been banking
economies tanking
now expired

welcome the new
coming full circle it’s true
contributing what we do
recognized for its value
what we do will ensue
into a value exchange
play it forward, a game
piecing an economy
based on autonomy
working together
as birds of a feather
sharing our skills
full of goodwill
creating solutions
ending pollutions
living in harmony
past released
released disharmony
banking expired
new economies inspired
by caring for all

money not needed
for there’s no longer a need
when we’ve done away
with what was known as greed

sharing our abundance
eliminating redundance
cooperative existence
with loving persistence
giving all that we can
to help our fellow man
moved by the intent
to understand what suffering meant
and eliminate its existence
with our loving persistence
to exchange in a new way
what if banking expired to say
all loans are forgiven
debts are underwritten
by a desire to give
so that all now may live
sufferance free?
starting over?

Spotlight

Spotlight

focus our light
spotlight the change
everything collapsing
replacements arranged

challenge the bureaucracy
wrestle with the old
archaic practices
can no longer be sold

spotlight our new ways
solutions from beyond
capture the imaginative
for what we have longed

shine our spotlights on others
honouring their views
knowing WHY they’re doing
should be front page news

and shine our spotlight inwards
and forever expose
all our potential
carried by our souls
