The Stillness of Silence

If you know Doo-Wop, you know The Five Satins’ “In the Still of the Night.”

If not, you know Garfunkel and Simon’s “The Sound of Silence.”

If not

In 2020 in the age of “19,” you know

The quiet

The stillness

The silence

You know how those characteristics are nuances of an invisible, predatory enemy not seen, or felt, or shaped.

You know the lack of sound that creates anxiety, apprehension and eventually fear.

You know the “Invisible Man.”

The stillness of silence used to be a refreshing, joyous, peaceful oasis in an overly hectic world.

In time, the stillness of silence will lose its insidious danger.

In time.

Spring Awakening 2020

We of Neanderthal ancestry

Within whom

Empathy for Mother Earth

Is deep and strong

Are few -

Yet, we persist.

Sapiens, hark!

Now

Mother Earth

Is talking directly to all of us

All of humanity

Neanderthal and Sapiens.

“You are all

Sharing

Great uncertainty

Listen

To the millennia of wisdom

Creation has shared with you:

It is human love that heals”.

Spring Bitters

genus & species update

Sapiens, repair

Your narrative

Once shared was 

yours, Sapiens,

mesolithic-era culture and 

Your mesolithic tower communication system 

synced with Cetaceans,

the toothed and baleen porpoises and whales.

You can once more serve all humanity 

2020

Repair your narrative
Human rights of all of us
