BUU Prime Time
August 10

Daybreak is the few moments of rising light and building energy. As the sun rises, and night becomes day, we enter into the classical monastic period known as “Prime.” If you rise to greet the sun or whenever it is that you rise, that is your Prime Time.

my tears are flowing
in grief, a desert bloom of human care terrorized, torn apart
in rage, the militancy of white supremacy tactically tearing down
my tears are flowing, they are the water of my life

our tears are flowing
in sorrow, so many blooms crushed
in fury, so much violent cruelty
our tears are flowing, they are the waters this life

may our tears flow together
in our love for each and all that has been taken
in our struggle to dismantle systemic hate 
may our tears flow together, watering our lives with justice​
