Wild Hunt Risen

I wrote this around the same time as "Rooted"

Wild Hunt Risen
To Those In Power

The Moon of the Hunter is full as I move through the forest leaving slots in the leaf litter, a gale of a wind is blowing the last of the leaves off the trees & I'm covered with them, they become part of me. Many scents are on the wind tonight, some, not wanting me to find them. They have no fear, I'm not hunting, yet. In this forest, the trees & I are one. I feel their roots & their crowns, the wind bending their branches, the shot of pain as a bough breaks in the gale. The animals I'm also at one with, for my name is Cern, Lord of the Wychwood, Son of the Goddess. All the beasts & plants look to me for their protection and at this time they have a great need of it, for there's an animal who thinks itself above all others. A most dangerous situation.

I have slept for far too long and I have missed the Land, the Sun & Sky, & the Life that lives between. The Christ people called me their devil the Horned One. Antlered One please. And yes, I do have cloven hooves, four hooves for the woods & forests but two when I wander through your hard towns & cities. The priests drove me underground, contained me within their Hell, all because I honour the Goddess and not their God, yet to me She is my Mother, Gaia, your Earth. Yes, her skin moves and her many breasts may erupt from time to time, yet She gave birth to me, & you, & to all the Life that lives on & in Her. It's little wonder you were turned away from Her by the men of the cloth, you are weak. They had no need of a female yet She gave them their cloth. Their God has no physical presence, they cannot touch their God yet I walk with mine everyday. I can lay with Her, touch Her and admire Her beauty & the Life She brings forth.

Now the time has come, the Mother has called and as Her Huntsmaster, I've raised the Hunt. My hounds, those the Christ people call the Hounds of Hell, are not to be feared if you walk with the Land but they are the Nemesis of those who don't. They appear in many forms to bring down their prey. I look on my hounds as Regulators, for that is what they do, they regulate all Life of the Mother, and with you humans there seems a great need for regulation. In less than 100 years you've doubled your population, and it's still growing. With your rush for profit & progress an imbalance has been created, you have brought so much on yourselves that my hounds have to take you down to size. You are helping in this as you seem to enjoy WAR and because of your greed the very Breath of Life has become polluted, the Blood of Life, water, has suffered the same fate. Your waste is even more dangerous, diseases are becoming more virile & vicious. You are making my hounds work that bit easier but if left to yourselves you will destroy your species, & many more besides.

Recently, I've been keeping an eye on your wheelings & dealings, your stocks & shares, & your currencies. Interesting developments to come. Your greed will be your undoing for if you turn a blind eye to the Mother's troubles you'll lose all your wealth long before you are put in the ground, after all, you can't take it with you. By then your species as a whole will be suffering & you will have caused this to happen. My hounds are now moving through you all, they may come as storms, floods, drought & famine, millions will be cut down, men, women & children, of all races, colours & creeds all because you did nothing.

You have stayed your hand when you should have acted & all because of your greed for more profits. Over the next few years you'll feel the pinch, it's even possible there will be global currency collapse, if you don't play your cards right & my hounds will drag you down if you don't. Gold is very heavy as is Greed, but you may see you have to make changes to your lifestyle as your shares tumble & the belt is tightened. It's an odd fact that people take notice of things when it hits them in their pockets, I hope it hits hard and that it hurts. For you have hurt the Mother & all Her offspring and it will take many years for all the wounds to heal. We all need a healthy mother to look after our needs.

The Weaver, in his yarns, has told you many times what's happening & what's to come yet you take no notice. You have, at most, ten years. If you don't act in that time future generations will despise you, hate you, for what you left them with. I will do my best to see their lives fulfilled, that is why I have released the Regulators. It is dark inside the Mother, you are born from Her into the light and it's to the dark you Will return. Be it in a box or ashes.

You who hold power in your countries hold power over your people not with them whether you are a President, Prime Minister or Dictator. I do not see much well-being amongst your electorate, you should be looking to your people & their needs. Give them back their power so they may raise themselves out of poverty & gain their health. It doesn't matter whether it's in China, Africa or the United States of America, vast numbers still live in poverty & poor health. The USA spends more money on it's military than on the health of it's people & their quality of life. I smiled when that storm of storms, Hurricane Katrina hit as now the American people would see their so-called government act, but it didn't and is still not acting. At the same time as I smiled there were tears for those who suffered, and are still suffering. Today there are thousands of environmental refugees homeless after the destruction of New Orleans. Greed, corruption & racist attitudes have seen to that.

You Shareholders & CEOs of multinational companies, in many cases you have more power than your governments, you hold them to ransom as well as other countries so they do Your bidding. Anyone true to Gaia is ruthlessly & illegally put down. No one can be allowed to upset your plans for more Profit, even if it be at the expense of future generations. You laugh as you count your billions of dollars, for you won't be around when the oeoeoeoe really hits the fan so you don't care. My hounds are after you. Keep an eye over your shoulder you may see them coming but then again, you may not. For as I have said, my hounds, & I, can take on many forms to bring you down. If only you could see the Whole Picture, the Web of Life that surrounds & weaves through us all. The drought in Australia was felt in many different ways around the Earth, locally there were bankruptcies of farmers, internationally, products from Australia rose in price on the shelves of the importing countries. One event. There's more to come.

Though the Web of Life is under threat from you it is you who will not survive, your greed is all too consuming and it will consume you. Broken bodies on the side walks of Hong Kong, Tokyo, New York & London as the Hang Seng, Nikkei, DJ & FTSE fall over a precipice, may well be your demise. Act & show me you care, care for all not just yourselves, your Grandchildren & their descendants will thank you, & so will I, until you do the Hunt continues.

You leaders of countries & industries, the state of the future of the world is in your hands. Change your ways and I will call off my hounds, don't & they'll bring you down, along with others who were in the wrong place at the wrong time. As I have said, tens of millions of people are already suffering because the biosphere is out of kilter, & many, many more will do so in the future. I do not want to see the suffering of the innocent but if you don't act I have no recourse. If it means the extinction of your species, so be it. Life on Earth will carry on.

Wild words I hope they are heeded

Wild they may be but there's truth in there as well. Interestingly, some friends in the US have put it up on their site as well

Dark days & nights if not the darkest times, but lets serenade the seed that has now been sown in the darkness of mothers belly and look forward to flowers that will emerge beauty amidst the concrete!

[Earth Hart]

You have a way with words, do you write prose or poetry?

neither I just speak from the heart, what ever shape or form, but it's rarely I get the opportunity to do so!

[Earth Hart]

That's what it's all about Squire, speaking/writing from the heart. You may find out that you're a Weaver btw, a Weaver starts with a fresh thread every time, picking up more as the yarn is woven into a tapestry
