I see hope in eyes of animal herd
Deep brown,
Penetrating.
I see change in
Refusal to buy into
False humanity,
Capital vanity.
I see you
And you see me.
Alive and rippling,
Fury
Against all that is wrong
with this world.
I see something else
Something unheard, undone.
I see hope on the horizon
Of a world yet to come.
I see love and compassion
In evident form.
I see human self – reborn.
