BOXES beyond borders

The scrolls contain the following of my poems in free letter distribution:

Enfold                                          
the planet earth
world-encompassing
make it resound
with the small
and stammering voice
with the stammering
and gathering call
with the word
that was in the beginning
and worked with the breath
of regeneration
within you and me
enfold the planet earth
And do not forget the animals
our wordless siblings
do not betray them
for they crave justice
just as we do
return their dignity
return their rights of life
to them only thus may
the secret of human being
be rediscovered
as a light in the darkness
in the name of all
that lives and breathes
do not forget the animals
our wordless siblings
do not betray and market them
take not their dignity
away from them
