StarBeing, six, show yourself



This inauthenticity

is killing

me

 

This song

called life

cannot,

should not,

be lived through

the eyes

of others.

 

You!

Yes, you!

Right over there!

Step out!

Show yourself!

Fully!

 

The cries of our

souls

unheard

behind

the season’s newest

boots, jackets, headwear

and radiance copying

botox 

plump

 

It is not global warming

It is not war

It is not junkfood

It is not radiation

It is not AI

that are rendering us

extinct

 

 

It is the

slavery to

inauthenticity

which 

has lead us

to 

what we name

dangers

and

catastrophy

 

See yourself in 

all your

uniqueness

See the bridge

that ties

your authenticity

to the

authenticity

of

everyone

else

 

Peoples

Land

Mountains

Trees

Lakes

Rivers

Oceans

 

Everything that

grows and

decays

and grows

and decays.

 

The winged ones

The finned ones

The fourleggeds

The creepy crawlies

 

The stars

The galaxies

The planets

This

Us

Now

Life. Alive.

Real.

Authentic.

Being.

 

Who do I want to be right now?

What is my being reflecting?

How can I align those two

right now

just a little

more?
