Become a soldier for peace,
end to the imperial war machine.
For Jesus said "What you do to the least
of my people, that you do unto me."
If the billions spent on war
were to be repurposed for peace
we'd find the jobs long hoped for
suppressing our inner beast.
Rather than dominion and oil
let's build a new vision
of social justice and toil
for a clean sustainable position
in a world that doesn't fear us
that lives in the peace of the son
not ducking petro bullets,
powered by water and sun.
So Merry Christmas to you all
I wish for you the peace
Promised by Jesus to us all
if we can only work for the least.
What have you done today to lower your impact?
We are washing away the foundations of our existence on every front. It is high time we move from crashing about on the planet like a bull in china shop and find a way to go forward with intent. We must find systems of living based on sustainability. The systems and tools exist, it is up to each of us to adopt them.
