Courage In Numbers And Alone Moon

Full Moon  June 27, 2025

then I heard a poet trouble and say:

I’m a straw man for leftist critique.

moment by moment

we are being called into becoming our true selves

as we would like to be remembered by future ancestors

this is a fight to imagine a reality of mutual flourishing

I resist moral terrorism: here, today, now—with all beings—

in order to imagine such a life of collective well being

the moon does not get wet

nor is the water broken

we awaken together
