"There's a whole new world here, and you're trying to debate who God is Ignoring all the growing plants And animals feeding on them Turning a blind eye to the hunters, gatherers, and civilizations. Look at the tadpoles Watch how the blades of grass bend to the windchime lullaby through mountains like passengers on the T in Boston Witness detail before you try to figure out some black and white yes and no answer. Try empathy. Discuss common ground on where the rivers are, which spiders are poisonous which sliders just look that way. Don't ever decide who gets to name god. Decide who gets to name the blades of grass. Agree on who names the spider. You can name the trees. I'll name the oceans before you know it this new world has a place for both of us and isn't that world more beautiful?"
