🌳 Conspiracy
a poem to smooth you into
sympathy with another being
a way to identify with your tribe
with affection more than DNA
you have been great for
3 hundred thousand years
carrying that big brain
wherever you went
but tools, language, storytelling
appeared later
invention of types, races, genders
brave new worlds of organized
relationships and religions
revolutions of industry
knowledge, schools, churches
—so this booklet is a conspiracy
of support for those who care
for our health—a common objective
the greater good
to belong to the universe
and all its stars forever.
(For the next two weeks these posts will show poems from the booklet "Conspiracy to Care" to thank our health care workers for their dedication to healing)
