Let us bring food
Let us bring food to office and meeting rooms
eating and gathering and food preparation
to places where humankind today feels least welcome
an act not of rebellion
but of humanity

Why do we seem to seek to make things bigger—grow our membership, make new friends, make more sales, have a bigger government? It is so pervasive it seems natural. The Israelites wanted to be as numerous as the grains of sand on the shore. We want to explore. Could it be, could it be, we desire to touch each other, to touch all, to be one with all? Is it a spiritual essence to us?
:- Doug.
See the way
easier, then, for another to see
even if others have seen before
you ease the way for someone
saying might help but is unnecessary
:- Doug.
Whispers swirl about us
hints of other minds alive
breaths seeking to be heard
particles composting, steaming
whispers all about us, holy
:- Doug.
We give
to each other
to the world
freely, without exchange
pro bono
:- Doug.
It’s all yours
Whatever will be made
Of this crystalline moment-place
:- Doug.
You are invited to hold
The fullness of generosity
The germination of endings
The peace of conflict
The action of rest
:- Doug.
This space is our space
This space is their space
This space is always open
This space is always closed
This space is always here for us
Nothing belongs to it
Everything is conceived in it
:- Doug.
Look into your great heart, then move.
:- Doug.
Holy, holy, holy
Other, other, other
Turn your eyes
Look a direction larger
Turn, turn, turn
:- Doug.
