Evolution…..?

Swirling…..Twirling
Through endless dark space
Tucked safely in a galaxy
A family of dusted lace
A sphere
A speck
The first fruits of life
Evolve.
Exists as God’s mysterious fist shakes out each day
Pray
That what comes sets a path of righteousness
Ua mau ka ea o ka ‘aina I ka pono
Of love, acceptance and mindfulness
But — who came before and before and before
The first Eve of time. The eve of “Adam” — of all humanity
Adam’s shame
Set the first case of “mine”
Not ours and all and everyone’s but them and they and just yours
It’s all about me and my claim to fame
The first tribes the first murder the first leaders the first power
Might Made Right
Sending others out to scavenge, travel, and starve
In turn they raped, pillaged and plundered for power and pride
All over again…..and again……and again
And on and on….
The glittering sphere turns without notice — the raucous of its inhabitants
Nestled in a milky galaxy of bliss
Just disappointment that such a gift of love and beauty can be abused
Tribal power to masses of development for power grows
Buildings, tunnels, waterways and masses of weapons
Defenseless forests slaughtered, silencing birds, browning the air.
GO!……………. push out of the land who don’t agree or hinder your power
Might Makes Right!
