Darkness

Realize that everything connects to everything else. ~ Leonardo Da Vinci

Turbulent times cast a long shadow

 

Aimlessly we roam from day to day

 

Paths unclear how to get from here to there

 

 

 

We all embrace sleepless nights

 

Afraid to sleep as nightmares loom

 

We are all afraid of the darkness

 

 

 

Appalling how we got here

 

Now how do we get out

 

The answer should be obvious

 

 

 

Atonement for our sins

 

Of greed, indifference, and deep seeded hate

 

Has woven this tapestry of anguish

Your poem attests to the fact that I, living in the wilderness & completely oblivious to the chaos of the highly-populated planet, still hurt for what's going on "out there" . . . *sigh!* (((HUGS)))

That's a considerable atonement list. Could I work on the deep seeded hate first and then start on the others?

Hi John, what matters is that we all start, perhaps things will turn out better. Thanks for dropping in.

I agree. We all need to start changing our ways.
