Enough

Enough!

Enough hate

Enough grudges

Enough judgment

Enough storytelling

 

Enough!

Enough mindlessness

Enough wandering without wonder

Enough absence

Enough disconnection

Enough apathy

Enough numbness

 

Enough!

Enough carelessness with precious and irreplaceable gifts

Of Life

Of Body

Of Family

Of Friendships

Of Community

Of Relations

Of Beings

Of Existence

Enough!

 

I know you are tired

I know you are in a daze of the overwhelming

I know you are in a haze of the complex and volatile and uncertain

I know you have suffered injury

I know you are hurt

I know you just want to go to sleep

 

But in your sleep

Not only are you overwhelmed: You also overwhelm

Not only are you confused: You also confuse

Not only do you live your injury: You also injure

Not only do you live your hurt: You also hurt

Not only do you carry on sleeping: You also allow all to carry on in Slumberland

Oblivious

 

So wake up

 

And enough!
