Poem
I remember a young child in Sunday School wondering what Jesus meant when he said, I have come out into Earth's narrative to turn Her repentance upside down. How could this be true, when he also taught that those who receive more will get more, and vice versa; less worthy grace for less valued face. This didn't sound right, yet it did seem reviving, Like something to hope for even though Jesus didn't really get the job done, or at least not here where I was and not now when I am. It has taken a lifetime of wondering about that curious and courageous, audacious and admonishing claim to realize Earth's nutritional narrative isn't about turning planets or people or plants or even energy and health systems upside down, But is all about returning Earth evolutions inside out, back forth reverse forward, principles for reverting revival revolutions. For example, Indigenous wisdom originally understood we are here as one people, one sacred empowered Tribe to serve the health needs and wealth wants of EarthMother. Just as Western patriarchal capitalism misunderstands Earth is here as our anthropocentric commodity, one secular planet to excavate exploit extract rape enslave colonize market discount clearance sale to sever Her health needs from our capital-hoarding wealth wants before She inevitably dies. What Jesus calls upside down and inside out, Laotse's listeners call a Principle of Reversion back to when Yin induced Yang so Yang would compassionately deduce Yintegrity for humane wealth Truth serving Earth's health-revolutionary Beauty, With many more cooperative economically thriving outcomes than leftbrain dominant competitive political survivalist incomes.
