Prism

I am a BEing of Light and Shadow

My prismatic Present of a Vessel

Gifting me with not only Sight

But also access to BE blessed

With no less

than 4 other senses…

But I’ve been learning to utilize others

That Con-ventional education

neglects to mention

Intuition and introspection

Increasing understanding of lessons

Learned in school

And through

Every experience prior to

this Present instant

For instance:

My interest in

Understanding others

And bridging Schisms

Has led to conviction

Of my presence

on the Autism Spectrum

To add an additional connection..

I’m a card holding member

Of a Family of Characters

Representing every age race and nation

Each in possession

Of a Depth and Contrast of character

Far more than 9 characters and the number 2 can define

Connecting dots with lines

more eye catching and interesting

than straight

Both parties using the spectrum

Of visible color

In the symbols and banners

We gather under

To creatively connect

despite oppositional forces

attempting to rend us asunder

Made stronger than most others

By the adversity and adversaries

WE have faced and conquered.

A Community Comprised of visionaries

Not focussed on You and Me

For our I’s have gained clarity

Our primary intent: building unity

You See…

WE are the Rainbow Warriors

A Tribe com-prized

Of priceless treasures , once invisible

Strengthening daily towards indivisible

One Family

Of Human(e) BE-ings

Destined to bring the color Green

Back to Our ailing Mother

To compassionately bring accountability

To our misguided brothers and sisters

For their transgressions throughout ‘cis’-story

To connect and collaborate consistently

Continuing to co-author the

Already unfolding Saga

Titled: OUR-Story

And bring an end to authorities

Ultimately, ushering in a Golden Age

Where ALL are Equal, Loved and un-afraid

No longer forced to hide the shine and hue

We each bring to the bigger picture to

‘Con’form and squeeze our unique colors

Into a soggy, crumbling box

Already overflowing with dull Grey crayons

I’ll leave you here

To draw your own conclusion

Time for me to get back to work

Painting over confusion with inclusion

Here’s to a beautiful Future

Hope to see you there...

Much Love
