Tikkun Olam

Tikkun olam is Hebrew for the healing of the world.

In the beginning
Everything was whole
Shining
Everything held hands
If they had hands.
When my daughter
Was young
She could not understand
Why anyone
Would wear a fur coat
How can anyone wear something
That once had a face?
What if we saw everything
What if we saw everyone
With a face?
In the beginning
We saw the face
On everything
Like God
Sees the face
On everything.
In the beginning
Everything
Was whole.
