It's All Karma

Do you feel like an endangered species –

Or like a predator?

When the inevitable happens

Will you go under water

Or wait in your bunker

To make an art form of denial?
 
Each day we see the fruits of karma
 
The smiling faces gratefully aware
 
The shoulders pressed by heavy burdens
 
Some are graceful
 
Some are awkward with pain
 
But we're all in this together
 
Like the penguins and the crocodiles
 
The jellyfish and the swans
 
The honeybees and cockroaches
 
Noah is an embryo
 
In a young mother's womb
 
And we are not ready
