Adaptive Adoptions
“The plants adapt, the people adopt.”
Robin Wall Kimmerer, “Braiding Sweetgrass”
Plants conservatively propose;
people liberally dispose.
RNA organisms nature,
DNA humans nurture.
Economic environmental systems co-invest,
Ecological political systems absorb
to re-invest.
Earth bleeds cultures of health
and pathology.
Humanity feeds histories of wealth
and poverty.
Legislative economists cooperatively propose
and occasionally choose.
CEO public service administrators
competently dispose
and occasionally build cooperative WinWin ownership.
Earth natures cooperativey adapt,
Human spirits regeneratively adopt.
