Aboriginal Ritual Chant

ByJorge D. H. Prosperi

Aboriginal Ritual Chant – Anonymous
The spirits of native people endures and lives on.
Heritage and human dignity passed on through centuries of sacrifice, resiliency and perseverance.
Nature – the land guarding its ancestral treasures.
With each chant we hear anguish turned to eloquence and forgiveness.
How human to include those who only knew how to plunder.

A Ritual to Read to Each Other

A Ritual to Read to Each Other

ByWilliam E. Stafford

William Stafford had a quiet daily ritual of writing focusing on the ordinary. His poetic style seems to invite a conversation that is close to everyday speech to remain alert and awake for there is many a small betrayal in the wind.
In a peaceful and yet stark manner, he urges that to know what occurs but not recognize the fact is the root of all cruelty.
