Ego's Monstrous ComPetition

Earth had offered Her eco-centric contract
of love and synergy,
awaiting ego's personal response each day,
each moment,
eager to optimize wealthy health care cooperations 
of sacred grace.

Over an apparently inadequate lifetime
ego implied his competitive response:

I grow increasingly excited,
stimulated,
by this co-petitioning challenge
to frame our dissonance,
our operational riddles and puzzles,
games and illogistics 
and dark strategies

Measured in statistical decomposition
of the odds for sustaining life
by perfecting hatred and fear
of death's dissociative decay.

I question Earth's right to positive resolution 
and harmonic resonance,
as consonant co-governance
of enlightened ego empowering eco 
to play win/win, 
recreate without sin, 
and co-passion nicely together

This co-petition against wasted anxious time
fully exercises my right of conscience,
to re-search 0-sum ego-partisanship 
for absolute freedom from eco-dependence.

This co-petition asserts our human natural guild's unlovely preference
for contention over contentment
for sustained longing rather than resilient belonging
for uni-lateral freedom 
rather than ego/eco bilateral interdependence.

EarthMother absorbed this richly contentious compost,
this dissembling over cooperative rights of assembly
and competition challenging associative eco-creation
as too inclusive recreation,
divisive of ego's omnipotent present place 
in organic space
derived from eco's multisystemic functions 
within history's healthiest seasons.

It seems to me,
said She,
Time has unfolded an eco-systemic co-tractive gift,
born of Her binomial grace
in bilaterally felt space,
a belonging response to mutually co-tribute with ego
gratitude for bicameral mutuality
and full freedom of co-scientific consciousness,
to conjoin time's eternal moment
of past personal ego 
with future eco recentering life.

Post Scripted: "After all this time and space
repeating inhumane competitions and cooperative contractions,
deductive inducements to balance positive political space 
with negative un-ecological economic time,
thank you for remembering why RightBrain felt eco-normics
gave birth to LeftBrain's verbal ego-petitions
in our first through last breathing moment 
of win/win eco-operative identity."
