Climatic Parable

Once within our time,
SkyPrince and SunGod talk,
as usual,
endlessly actually,
sending their radiant messages
out toward mutually gravitating receivers,
no Yins allowed to pitch;
just catch integrative flow.

SkyPrince wonders if SunGod might consider turning down his heat,
and wanders aloud as Sun burns enlightened embodied minds,
"I'm worried about EarthGoddess,
she seems wilting
and actually melting on her bipolar knee caps."

SunGod wishes this were funny,
or wrong,
just a mistake somehow,
maybe her time of this post-millennial period.
"Business As Usual," continues SunGod.
"My fire burns her waters into that amazing green-blue skin of hers.
Climate change pathology evolves 
like heated wind 
through your hair-brained
SkyPrince head.
Business As Usual!"

Meanwhile, 
WaterPrincess keeps her primally balancing distance
from SunGod's overheating reign.

Still,
very still,
too still,
she melts within EarthGoddess.

And, with her Earth's diverse species
until EarthGoddess' soil becomes dry as dust.

Her cooperative economic and ecological soul
unravels dishumanic culture,
preparing for her transmutation 
into Yin's cold hibernating cave
of deep echo-logical nightmares,

Galloping full horsepowered,
feverishly racing against racism,
to prove we are chickens in our own messy soup
melting together and flying apart.

WaterPrincess weeps 
and seeps down in to Earth's Core
overheating compost's therapeutic heart.

SunGod notices WaterPrincess,
too frequently absent from his divine comedy.
"She fails to feel my good humored rays
of wise warm radiance.
This feels more feminist Left than justly Righteous"
glooms SunGod's manic calculating ways.

He glimpses dissonant doubt
where his regenerative organisms had been competing virgins
to cooperative sex,
much less mutually maximizing economic flow-power,
or crystal mirror echoes of ecological myth and language.

SunGod weeps 
and wilts his PrincessWater.

Earth Goddess succumbs 
to SunGod's redeeming shaded fears.

Her revolutionary octaves fill with pregnant repurpose
and rehabilitating permacultural designs 
of herstoric matriarchal culture.
Her justice joys his peaceful recommitment
toward balancing polycultural praxis.
Familiar global ecotherapy 
wins our health-enculturing history.

YangGod right handedly
kisses  EarthYinGoddess
as Left deductive 
embraces Right inductive 
prime-emphatic 
non-dogmatic balance

As human nature competes 
to cooperatively regenerate
what nature co-insedately incarnates 
to sing full octaved Earth Day Opera,

ReMembering future full-told tales 
of SunLeft induces EarthRights,
Earth resolves Sun's pay-ray-forward gifts,
reading absolves left to right rooted Informating Tree
leaves bilateral eaves
happily ever after now 
momentarily timeless here.
