Description:
These are poems, essays, artwork and photos for the cause of peace. We take a stand for peace, independently and collectively, artistically and politically. In these times it is imperative not to let slip through one's hands the opportunity to say again and again, with whatever means possible, creative and peaceful, that war is wrong, that love is the only path to peace, justice and freedom, and that we will not stray from this path no matter the consequences. This idea fed this project and I hope will feed the minds and hearts of those who share in our efforts by reading this book. A.F.Jenkins is a practitioner of Tibetan Buddhism & a peace activist. Her photojournalism can be seen at www.allreelimages.com Greenwood/Blue Lotus Press and No War No More grew out of the ideas and hopes of a few activists in the Mahoning Valley in Ohio. The philosophy of our press is rooted in a Buddhist, environmentalist and social consciousness.

too warm

Kids screaming in the too warm early dark; too warm the spider ponders the bounty of tiny gnat snacks filling its web; lights are on and the pool balls click: snickery dickery
Too warm, perspiring on the photo-maker, on the photo-taker, sun fries and our skin crawls, earth has a fever and us is viral
All we can envision is cupcakes, sweetcakes, wooden rocking chairs and a harmonica that gives you pnuemonia

"we're bringing in the sheaves" john-barley-corn, squirrels arguing in the oak leaves, and chipmunks under the wood pile, squealing

The heart-shaped pink-coloured catfood is gone but who ate it? Doug says, "meadow brother," coughs and pushes in another Stargate
All the Leaves Are Green and autumn will come with a shattering crash...little do we know.
