Pro-life people should just bide their time
In a few generations the rest of us will have gone extinct.
But they don’t know that, because they’re creationists also.
They don’t know, also, that they’ll be dead too,
because of “Climate Change”
Ash, Cinders, Use it all up, burn it all down, just don’t let them take you alive.
To live in resistance-that means to give up
Each day’s bread for action, each night’s sleep for dreams
To hang by a thread in the vacuum
Between what is and what is to be.
To lose fight after fight, without rest or respite
And to win back the chance to take risks, to take flight
The stakes that place life beyond price.
Yes we walk in darkness under ten thousand stars
We embrace our desires even as they are torn from our arms
That agony-that is our triumph that failure-that is our feat
We are nothing and no one, fed on wanting alone
And in wanting we’re almost complete
We arrive here embattled, pursued and forlorn
Rich in stories that cannot be told or be borne
There’s so much I still want to say, want to do
And I Know I won’t be here for long
To fight
Loss after loss, cost upon cost
And in the settling dust
The aftermath and despair
To pick up the pieces and set out once again from there
Yes we walked in the darkness
Under ten thousand stars
And awoke lost in deserts
There we trembled and paused
We were dragged by our demons
Through hell and heaven above
We wanted so badly to love life so madly
That wanting was almost enough
And though when we arrived, almost nothing remained
Of the visions that had guided us over horizons
And all destinations seemed foreign and strange
That agony-that is our triumph
That failure-that is our feat
We’ve raised anchor forever
The world lies in our wake
And that ache
There is nothing so sweet
Manly Palmer Hall
