Blue Witness

As she lays down her blue brush in a blue-trimmed cream dream stone basin of darkening water rush She realizes inside voice has been thinking about double negative paradox as -x/-y can't win pathology knots Of way too much Patriarchal Capitalist dogmatic Business As Usual, monochromatic monopolistic monocultural monotheistic Describing just punishments for being not enough and prescribing her hot BusyMess is cruel cold calculating dismissal disregard... don't matter Let her splatter! while he eats his white supremely whipped up cake without kindness without courage without curiosity without over-frosted happiness Mindlessly unwoke to future predative desecration issues promoting and marketing trauma-inflation corporations inviting frequent-flyer evangelically missioned Narcissists Who probably don't think much of a universal peak salvation experience yet do feel deeply united, maybe even energetically synergetic, about their own sacred memories of EarthMother's original Win/Win multi-colored co-invested warm wet unconditionally cooperative wombed sense receptive co-relationships Through time's changing hue and culture and cry LeftBrain verbally emerging too dominant Thereby, curiosity remains difficult to contain to deeply listen for feelings to explain this sound and sight for blue brushes tinting her slowly turning now churning rushing water going bluing flowing madly then again sadly back through paternalistic capital growing anthroprivileged time Emerging blue and grey darkening ecocide reaching for red as dead.
