The Mastery of Inclusion

The Mastery of Inclusion
it can be hard to include
those whose perspective is not
compatible with ours
from their place on the clock
but remember we too
have stood where they stand
and have also seen the same view
as their lay of the land
the gift of exchange
of both feelings and knowledge
helps us to understand
we’ve attended the same college
the college of life
experiential degrees
maybe different years
even lifetimes away
but that same curriculum
always seems to come into play
with the same lessons
to be learnt along the way
tuition is paid forward
attendance required
to earn an MI
to remain inspired
by a
Masters of Inclusion
a degree in Humanities

Spotted

Spotted
spotted
polka-dotted
the world’s skin
is allotted
to many life forms
beauty
diversity
specialized, blended
each spot is unique
sameness upended
choose
your spot
be your self
blend with the periphery
don’t sit on the shelf
shine
your spot-light
on your potential
and grow
grow your life

The Mothers are Gathering

The Mothers are Gathering
the mothers are gathering
with their love and support
they know the time is arriving
they are ready to transport
to transport their wisdom
from this time to the next
they gather once more
for the children they protect
the children will seed the future
for this world and for humanity
with the old world ways collapsing
we will shed the chaos and this insanity
there are bright stars
on the horizon
