Song of the Cetaceans
I churn the waters of the seven seas
I swim into the forever
I sing of the past
the present
and the uncertain future
I sing for all mankind.
Many men wonder
who I really am
I have come from the eons
I have come to save our souls.
We tell our children to love us
but men still hunt us down
I cry for my brother
I cry for my mother
I cry for those who live here
but don't really know the world.
The stardust put us here
We came from the abyss
of time long gone.
Whale song for the present
Whale song for the future
I pray for all Mankind
Even though I may be long gone
I may never be missed
Only the Native Americans
know the truth.
They themselves have forgotten
about the natural world
the long ago
the forgotten words
the forgotten chants
the forgotten prayers.
God help us
I sing from the cerulean seas
I sing for your souls
The brothers from the seas only know
because we have forgotten the long ago time
we have forgotten the prayer.
I sing for all mankind.

Poetry: Humanity
by Jon Coe
Crawling together, learning to walk
Communication evolves with words to talk
Tapping the arm and nodding the head
The planet
by Ted Onulak
I have met many travelers
On my winding way
Finding common destinations
Or other roads to stray
At times we share each other's
A trip through our cosmos
A visionary am I
Looking out over our galaxy
Seeing through my mind’s eye.
Pain, war, bloodshed
Casting My Net
I cast my net of anger;
it returned full of bile.
I cast my net of gossip;
it returned full of self-loathing.
I

Humanity
Born as a gift of nature
Opened by
The souls
Of charitable heavens
Humanity is in
Every soul
Which may open
In thoughts
