Tangled
I wrote this in response to a news report this evening, about a whale and her newborn calf. The calf became entangled in a shark net and died before rescuers could free it.
Grieving mother
distressed
flailing
watching over
her newborn
gone from
this world
tangled in a
shark net

I daily work with those
birthed by the cry of
'right to life' --
who then are abandoned
by on the shores of greed.
Tennessee has become this day
the state with the least support
for those in needed with the distruction of Tenncare --
yet those who abused the system
and managed it into infamy
will retire well
on their security.
the minister who will
witness our wedding
will not live another year
because we pay $1800 for death of an 'enemy' but cannot
save our our poor from
starvation, but he is not 'worthy' of medication.
He chooses to work with oppressed, including gays = and is therefore
'unworthy' -- except of course,
in the eyes of the Lord.
Darling Megan - this is as sharp as splintered glass and as beautiful - the sun blazes through casting rainbows, but it doesn't stop the bleeding, does it?

This is a pain shared by the world community. It is a community problem. I once read that there are many who care, but they are so busy with work and children they don't know what to do.(?) How does one negotiate the red tape? Apparently there are many who aren't heard, but they do care very much. If only someone knew how to rally everyone together....on a better note, I read yesterday that some seal shooters had been fined and charged - the place where this was done is admamant about protecting wildlife, and has managed to stamp out major problems and preserve what needs to be preserved...I hear you.
