Everything contains and expresses it.
The world is alive, awake, aware,
loving, and breathtakingly intelligent.
We each share this consciousness

WHEN WE’RE OLDER
When we’re older,
let’s meet every Sunday at 4,
in that cute little cafe we love.
Let’s laugh at our foibles,

Parce qu'ils vous donnent tout, sans rien demander.
Parce que contre le pouvoir de l'homme armé, ils sont sans défense.
Parce qu'ils sont des enfants éternels, Parce qu'ils ne savent pas ce qu'est la haine ou la guerre.

JOY
Joy does not arrive with a fanfare,
on a red carpet strewn with the flowers of a perfect life.
Joy sneaks in, as you pour a cup of coffee,
watching the sun hit your favourite tree, just right.
And you usher joy away,

We who are female
We who bleed
They are trying to pull us backwards
