Pieces of Humanity

I had written some poetry for my friend Jim's work "Humanity". As happens to me from time to time, I forget where I write things. That is the challenge with my 'life journal'. I have so many books and pieces of paper that I've written in or on, I loose track. So I wrote this MONTHS before the Humanity series came to be, right at the beginning when Jim had only sketched the pieces. Do you think I could find them when I needed to them to include in the show? No. I ended up writing totally different pieces (not totally different, but different). So I present here, more of that work from Humanity. This one, as the title of this blog describes, is Pieces of Humanity.

Pieces of Humanity

Diversity in Humanity
A sea of people reaching
for some sanity.

A piece of Humanity...
yearning for solidarity
marching in the streets
of towns....asking...
praying for Peace.

Silent marches of unseen hearts...
Loudly catching the sounds of
war in our world...

Yet...we continue marching on
toward peace....
for Humanity.
