Peace Warriors have a job to do and actions speak louder than words in a world in so much turmoil while so many cry out for help, their silence is deafening. From Vanuatu, I vowed when I was 12, when my young mother was dying in Australia "I must go to Africa!" and left home when she did when I was 18, + went to Africa. I learned not only Mother Nature is a Paradox, but so is Human Nature. I became a living book unlike texts books that have full stops where human knowledge stops, and was seen by dogmatics as anything beyond their stop = right and normal, as wrong and being impossible. I don't believe it! Experience as witness to the facts isn't always seen as possible, but I beg to differ.

I AM

"I am…."

I am a paradox,
an absolute contradiction.
Peace man!
Or... whoever you are?
Relax - and share my star.
I am woman:
a warrior through and through,
I won't bite,
I only fight for Cause,
called you, and you and you.
I do not...

It's wishful, longing when all have doubt sometimes. 'I do' it a promise that can't always be kept as circumstance chooses the ending.
