New Earth Doula

Uncertain future,

But isn’t it always?

Hurtling through space,

And all that.

Wizard minister,

In this body -

Using strength

For good -

Healing vibes.

Not giving energy to

Uphold old paradigm

Like past-me

Trained to,

And did.

Selling you things

You don’t need,

Talking you into

This, and that -

To create value

For shareholders -

Because that’s my job.

No.

I could not give up,

Go back,

Hurt you,

Or Mama Earth,

To “get ahead” -

No.

Could I even

Harm you -

Without harming me,

Anyway?

When we’re all one?

No,

It doesn’t work like that.

And I see,

There is no place for me

In the old paradigm.

And that’s ok.

It's dying.

I am here,

New Earth doula -

Breathing with the ones gestating,

Birthing soon -

Holding space for screams -

And tears of grief,

And relief -

And collective

Songs of peace and joy.

Can you feel the balance shifting?

Are you nesting?

Resting?

Waiting?

Lean into self-care,

Mama bears -

The quickening is coming.
