Illusory this ideation of separation
intricate the webs that bind us
Politicians focus on the holes
pander to the vacuous –
Seekers resonate with connection
consciousness raising awareness
Remain steadfast protestors
your vibrations wide-reaching.

It is confounding that our shared humanity isn’t enough to bind us together. As your poem so aptly expresses, we are all connected, whether we want to acknowledge it or not.
