Poem
Seeds, like mentors, are germinators. Generation wears two faces, as does development, positive and negative, regeneration and degeneration. Some seeds are healthier than others. Some are positively deviant, robust, and others are negatively deviant, flawed, unbalanced, missing an exegetical median mark, some would see as sin, which can be forgiven within oneself by learning to forgive others for our collective negative deviant seeds. Bill Mollison exhorts us to a global therapeutic project: Reforesting the Earth is one of the few tasks left to us to express our humanity. This feels true and right and good, hopeful and prophetic and WinWin, and yet mysterious and incongruous. It raises questions, like a good parable, and wisdom literature in general. I can think of a time within nation-state histories and even extended family, tribal development stories, when some wise patriarch might have said: Deforesting this place is one of the few tasks left to us to optimize our divine-humane potential. Did we really have to deforest to develop a FiveStar FirstWorld Class of healthy humane curiosity and deep ecological wealthy learning to reforest this Earth to re-express, and perhaps forgive ourselves, for our own LeftBrain dominant historic development? And, whether so or no, was Original Forest logos also Original Sin mythos? Risk and opportunity, degeneration and regeneration, germinating potentials within each of Earth's soils and nondual mind-bodies co-arising LeftYang-RightYin WinWin souls. I wonder what Mollison means by "one of the few" assignments. And whom or what he believes left these therapeutic tasks for our healthy-wealth fulfillment. I like to think and feel perhaps few, in a prime-relational sense, is two; that calculating deforesting harvest is a reverse hierarchical face of harmonizing reforestation, a resonant full-octave restoration of Paradise Lost through LeftBrain dominance over RightFlow relational resonance, Of deductive deforesting as numerator with inductive bilateral reforestation as re-denominator, differential dialectal fractal-fractions Either/Or Both/And sung and danced through matriarchal herstories of MotherEarth with consort Father Son, dominant radiant Yes of Light with reforesting harmonics of dualdark EarthDay reforesting dawn greeting EarthNight climate dusk. Forests of seeds, like therapeutic acclimators, are germinators, embryonic terminators trending toward already forgiven regenerators.
