Earth's Eulogy

Mothers have come from throughout Earth to bury our post-Trumpian dead. Bringing both gifts and lamentations as each finds appropriate for healing what cannot be stanched and scabbed. As gathering we choose who will speak among us, for this Earth eulogy. At last our voices conjoin as bilateral one, speaking back through history and forth toward fading lack of future. We have come from left to right, north and south, west through east, patriarchal states and matriarchal families to bury our dead children sacrificed for bipolarizing divisions unwilling to wait for this our dipolar co-arising of healing cooperative polities bilaterally harmonic co-investments in Earth's Original CoIntelligence. We have come to bury and burn depleting polarities but also to praise cooperative dipolarities transforming this global revolution away from climates of pathology, here buried burning climates of health regenerativity here praised, celebrating conflagration, honored with both sacred and secular blood of Earth-natured dispiriting loss. We bury patriarchal losses to envy and nationalism's violent criminalizing greed for lethal commodities, once our productive sons and daughters born through matriarchal love reborn. We burn in celebrated loss, cut off from our resonant futures through this inferno stink of human flesh in cedar casket trees no longer standing solidarity of embryonic birth. Our wombs like seeds extend back toward Earth's first emerging dawn now expiring in this last flame of funereal dusk. We disperse with silence into this night, each alone together celebrating future songs of praise for incentivizing peace ever more resonantly co-resolving, redeeming cooperative economies of life for living love not death for dissonant despair. We witness this long new moon night and following dawn breaks to summarizing bottom-line headlines for Mother Earth evolving stories, turning creolization right side up with multicultural agreements, ecopolitical consensus. No more begin with war to then follow by dividing up the Father's devolving spoils for future competitions in aggressive capital self-inflation. For ever more default with WinWin peaceful resolutions following resonant reweaving of matriarchal regenerational co-investment, multiplying healthy nutritional wealth, polypathic dipolar, co-arising polyphonic bounty back to time's embryo, this dynamic universe's original enculturing intent.
