Impact FreedomA Poem by Footprints al carbonA life without impact remains trapped inside. The only place where a fundamentalist fantasy can take root is in the greatest wounds of the heart. There is a better way to make an impact.
A language of action cries as the edict goes out
to stop wishing for justice instead make it be known; What have we witnessed of the debts and the borders which are too steep to climb out of and too far for hope to cross; Reach out in an impassioned plea for the restless land of peace, the temple of reunions is there where all suffering has meaning; Hear the call to join the great spree charging forward in self disdain, voices well up to give purpose as the wrecking ball of will swings low; Collect all that you have had then bid farewell and leave it here, like fallen fruit left to decay it is now too ripe a cost for the tree to bear; A giver waits in the shadows whispering of much still to see of a land of salvation is just beyond the grand mystery within. When sold on a promise say true whence it comes, for a seed finding soil is also destroyed when it sprouts.
