HEART ARK
Heark! Heark!
I speak of the
ark
of my friend's heart
Unlike Noah's
it contains all beings
every cockroach
every lark
to Jan F
MOSES ROD IN EACH
Omnipotent God
can cause any rod
to strike fountains
from stone mountains
or the waters of love
which dwell in each heart

Isaiah said the lion will lie down with the lamb.. that there
will be no more harming on earth... and that
all should turn their weapons into plowshares*. Albert
Einstein .. a vegetarian who ate 1 bite of meat on Jewish
holidays to appease his wife who was ignorant of the true
meaning of the Talmud and Torah.. for the rest of his life
regretted that he had been part of the murderous Manhattan
Project....
Yehudi Menuhin used his violin as a needle to sew peace..
.. appearing before Arab populations... Alex Hershaft
has used his concentration camp reparations to promote
nonviolence. Michael Feldman promotes humor to spread
peace and compassio for animals.
Jesus called those
who murder, dismember, and devour innocent animals sarcophagi
or flesheaters... King James translaters turned this word
sarcophagi into "whited sepulchres" and in truth
those who eat animals become their mobile cemeteries...
Consuming animals is a much more intimate
act than that of conjugal relations.
