Drew Dellinger Extracts:
Heiroglyphic Stairway
It's 3:23 in the morning and I'm awake because my great-great grandchildren won't let me sleep.
My great-great grandchildren ask me in dreams…
"What did you do while the planet was plundered?
What did you do when the Earth was unraveling?
Surely you did something when the seasons started failing,
as the mammals, reptiles, birds were all dying.
Did you fill the streets with protest when democracy was stolen?
What did you do once you knew?"
Hymn to the Sacred Body of the Universe
……Sixteen million tonnes of rain are falling every second on the planet.
An ocean perpetually falling and every drop is your body.
Every motion, every feather, every thought is your body.
Time is your body.
And the infinite curled inside like invisible rainbows folded into light…..
Praise:
"Drew Dellinger is one of the most inspired poets of his generation and a troubadour for all who seek a world of justice, generosity, compassion and peace."
- Rabbi Michael Lerner, Editor Tikkun and Chair
The Network of Spiritual Progressives
"Drew is the Earth's grapevine, the transcendent delivery man, the vocable giver, the dispatcher of the unremembered, the confabulating oath keeper, the stand-in for the intimate grief that holds us in thrall. His poems are bodies of light seen by startled new eyes and long after he speaks they weave the unconscious, stitching us to our collective and uncertain future."
- Paul Hawken, author
"Blessed Unrest" and "The Ecology of Commerce"
