For Anda Winters
how do we improvise in these difficult times?
how to keep our art and spirit alive?
we have to find a new way into the future
that is better than the way of the past.
perhaps now like children who have
woken the kraken from the deep
we’ll learn which laws
of life to keep.
no more can we blame god
or the gods. we are the evil
that keeps on coming back to us.
it’s time to re-examine our histories.
find a new road to the future.
get back to the balance we’ve lost
or we are on the path to dust.
our past has led us here.
but to have a radiant future
a new consciousness is needed.
something brave, beyond fear.
this must be the time of awakening.
the kraken’s here.
can we in these times improvise?
upwards our dreams must we revise.
