Sometimes its hard
2look in the mirror& like wat I c
Sometimes its hard
To let go& just be free
Separate from society
Just me
@ a lake
Watchin the sunset &moonrise
Reflections on the glass surface

Is rejoicing
W a glass of moonshine

A soft kiss between left & right
Of commitment
Of ritual
Of faith & hope
In prayer
May others folo
Not fight

In the amphitheatre of the universe
W the audience of planets
W da sound by pulsars
W da lightin by stars
Shooting stars delight

Said in jest
Repeated in gossip
Posted in ignorance
Filtered into victims consciousness
Damaged
By a sharp-toothed rumour
...
The sharp-toothed rumour
Was said first
Then written
Then published
Then deemed truth
Now people kill for it

I find those last 2 stanzas
I find those last 2 stanzas very telling, Shannan. How hate can be provoked by guesswork, lies, or even jest as you say. Rhiannon
