We-phylogeny--structural similarities between ecosystemic Earth species

Me-homology--structural similarities within an individual organic egosystem

Phylogeny is to homology
as ecological respiration
is to theological aspiration.

I think
I shall never feel
a phylogenic tree
as uprooted
as homo-unlogical me.

Phylogenic chaos
is to ego-monological supremacy
not as ecological tree respiration
is to theological
root-nutritional
inspiration

As timelessly flowing Here egocenters
are to Now resiliently climaxing ecosystems

In which I think
I will always feel
phylogenic historical invitations
to homological co-passioning grace
and heterodoxical healthy choice.
