earth change: choose for life (kah)

[keithalanhamilton]

portentously looming in our future
are super-volcanoes, killer asteroids
global plagues, climate change,
et cetera
all potentially could bring to fruition
disruptive variations of earth change ~
what will we do
as to these threats
give up, give in,
as well as feel guilty
about should of could of
been done
therefore resigning ourselves over
to pity’s burden and apathy’s reign

some say don’t worry, there’s really
nothing we can do; why not ignore it
and if such things would happen at all
it’s doubtful it’ll occur during our life
others on high infer,
we them masses ain’t
smart enuff to change nuttin
and us peoples
no ways gonna change,
‘cause we keep doin’
like we always do
and
"you can take that to the bank"
in spite of
what the politician
or even some preacher
or that
well-educated intellectual
and scientist does claim ~
oh bull-pucky,
just yous wait a sec
and in the way my common,
everyday grandpa used to say,
“yous pert near had me a thinkin’
in a way, heaped full of feelings
and paralyzing fears”
I nearly forgot about sound reason
just because the THEY
say it is so
doesn’t mean
all things said by THEM
are right or is
the only way to follow
or become
and the hell with that screwed up
guilt trip thing
living is hard enough
to waste energy
on the blame game
pointing our finger
at one another

let us use
our mind to reason
let’s use
our ability to question

who gave us humans
some kind of guidebook
revealing every step of the way
about living
that would guarantee
our ongoing survival
come on now
we gotta stay open-minded
about the facts
what was
how it happened
as experienced
when we and those
of the past lived them

let us think
and let’s remember

didn’t we the people
do what
what we had too
didn’t we survive, live adaptively
humanizing our chances by novelty
creatively then bettering our lives
through much toil, blood, sweat
and yes through tears
not just as other life with brawn
where the strong shall survive
but with our brain as well
of which is so, so fully
demonstrated by our technology ~
like in the past, so in the future
we the people
can and will survive
earth changes
if we want too ~
if we the people
work in a proactive way
steadfastly struggle
through tireless effort
within our
shared thinking process
not so unlike, we humans
have had to do
so many times in the past
even if different
regarding the circumstances ~
if we the people
overtime, can give birth to
intelligently perceptive insights
insights, intelligently applied
with our innovative technologies
therein and therefore
if we the people
mutually within the human
intelligently progressive
learning process
we, you and me
learn to implement in conjunction
with our insight and technology
primary and alternative
contingency plans
contingency plans
that will need to be flexible
preparatory, preventative
and transitional in design
wherefore scientifically being
formulated around
a more holistic understanding
of the universal processes
regulating all Nature
not just the earth
as a whole system

if then and only when
we the people
face head on together
determined to go on
no matter, despite
whatever the earth change
presenting itself before us
we, you and me
within our lived experience
experiencing a unity to press on
will become to be motivated
driven on by an emergent
felt sense
of spirituality
born of our activity
the connectivity
of our interactions
spirited on
by our interrelationships
that illuminate
the systemic benefit
embedded
into our interdependence
inherently embodied
entwined into
our process of life
as a desire to live on ~
henceforth
beholden to the hope
and the faith
within the spirit for life
we can and shall survive
somehow, somewhere
even if, all seemingly
above and beyond
so afar of what
we, you and me
may now know
but still, right there
before us all
to fight for and obtain

if we the people
humanity
choose not only to live
we, you and me
should also
choose for life
helping life to live and go on

as I said on the other board... seems the immediate threat is ourselves. the insatiable hunger for power and energy and resources, ransack of the planet. technology needs to be fully applied in relief, a process that's already started. hoary, destructive dogma need to be let go as well. all isms and religious convictions should be subject to review and revocation.
