Cold Moon by Cait Johnson

Don't expect warm or consistent. Can you tolerate cold light and change? Can you love something distant and strange?

I'm pocked and I'm cold, and immeasurably old. My magic will silver the garbage In the slums, or the desert, or sea,

And I don't give a damn; This is how I am. There's nothing that I haven't seen.

[M]ost of us are taught from birth that we must look outside ourselves for the answers to any pressing question, including matters of our own health and well-being. We learn very early in life to give our power over to authority -- to the teachers, doctors, political figures, and minsters/rabbis/priests who are the power-holders, the answer-givers. The entire structure of our society rests on the concept of power-over. And in submitting to outward authority, we often lose our sense of inner worth, inner power, spiritual authenticity. In reclaiming for ourselves and our children the concept of power-within, we can be wonderfully and dangerously subversive.
