Be the ancestor you want to see your descendants venerate
#meme #DanceMacabre #DanceOfDeath #skeletons #ancestor #descendents #venerate
anti social fears
like to love to venerate
push hate here to cancel
eager for the truth
to disappear

With emails, social media posts
inundating us this week with
buy, buy, buy,
and influencers posting
beautiful lifestyle photos
that also say
buy, buy, buy,
how different would
things be if society
didn't venerate
capitalism?
Imagine if we were all
inundated with messages
of caring about one another,
through means other than
consuming?
Helping to reduce disease burden,
reduce burden of the
most marginalized in society,
reduce the burden to Mother Earth?
It used to be god/s
(We had imagination then)
Or the old people
Connecting life to lifetimes.
It used to be
The pull and push
Of seasons on our bones.
It used to be the dead.
What do we venerate now?
Next-day delivery.
We are strange and ugly
Narcissi at the water's edge.
Someone should push us in.
from venal
to veneration
passing the collection bowl
around your ringing singing
tent

What came out was, "I appreciate you" when the truth was, he venerated her. She made magic with her gentle touch, her sensible words, her graceful presentation. He had seen her calm a raging hormone storm in a pubescent pre-teen with a paragraph and a squeeze. She laughed at his jokes, respected his space, didn't put down his hobbies even if they took over his time. He wondered if she knew his thoughts about her and was too polite to discuss them.
When evil's revered
by so many countrymen,
how do I find hope?
