Under the Ground by Drew Jackson
Life is always happening
underground—
the place that light has forsaken.
Finite minds cannot take in
that the belly of mother Earth
is, indeed, a womb.
Entombed in the soil is the pip
of a new Eden.
Only the seed that has fallen into the pit
can burst through into the morning dew
to announce to weeping eyes
that a new day has risen—
a day in which the voices and stories of women
are believed, their word received
as good news,
and the men have no problem
following them and
learning how to believe again.
What I mean is this:
the world has been flipped
on its head.
Heaven has invaded hell,
the spell of death is broken,
and the doorway opened to a new way of being.
It all begins with seeing
that the darkness of our world is luminous,
and in the humus of life is where we become fully human.

JOANNA MACY QUOTE
“A dance with despair... became actually the most pivotal point in the landscape of my life...to see how we are called to not run from the discomfort and not run from the grief or the feelings of outrage or even fear. If we can be fearless, to be with our pain, it turns. It doesn't stay static. It only doesn't change if we refuse to look at it. But when we look at it, when we take it in our hands, when we can just be with it and keep breathing, then it turns. It turns to reveal its other face, and the other face of our pain for the world is our love for the world, our absolutely inseparable connectedness with all life. “
