Stupify (ING)

Stupifying

The world

We live within

Full of 

So much 

Unending fear

Seemingly reigning

Taking possession

Of so many

It’s time

Time to

Take back

The world

Needing you

Needing me

Needing us

Our feminine

Our masculine

Showing up

In all 

It’s glory

Beauty blazing

Freshly into

The powdered snow

Inviting back

Remembering from

Hence we came

Within this movement

Alive in 

This moment

We change

The world

Raising ourselves

Raising community

Stepping onto

New ground

Yet ancient

In origin

Vibrant and alive

Licking our lips

Wiping away

Our stupifying 

The fresh dew

Of risk’s kiss

Everlasting upon

Our soul

San Juan Beach Community Delight…

  • Blind… But Now I see

    ByRick Ellsmore

    The Blindness I’ve lived a life as a blind man Blinded by sadness, pain, and sorrow Blinded by the religion forced down my throat Blinded by the choices made to numb, avoid, and ignore the roar The Darkness The darkness slowly eating my soul The darkness slowly sucking the life The darkness constantly raping my…
