Mimi Shapiro (16)

©Mimi Shapiro_kali-mimi

there are many manifestations of Kali

for centuries and today

there is no light without dark

day without night

as the sun circles and as the seasons change

both she and I change in time

over time through time

once the gods were human

and we revered them as gods

over time these myths grew

until the gods became blended with our spirits

we can destroy ignorance and

restore order

what can you do? for Kali

for today

for change?
