OCCUPY is the “prime directive” (h/t shekissesfrogs). I dreamed this poem into being last night after writing a short comment to a diary by Frank Lee Speaking.
OCCUPY
We decide
what matters.
We lead
but we are leaderless.
We act
and wait for no one to save us.
We save ourselves.
Sometimes a drop
sometimes a tsunami,
we are everywhere and we are nowhere.
National boundaries do not separate us;
Language does not separate us;
Religion does not separate us;
Skin color does not separate us.
Anything that separates us,
we go around
wear it down
disappear it.
We are becoming . . .
there is no force in the universe that can stop us.
we are an idea taking form
We are becoming . . .
Birthing a new world
No one imagined a year ago.
We are becoming . . .
Let he who doubts the power in a drop of water
leap into the Grand Canyon.
In the beginning there was the word.
We know that word today:
OCCUPY.
