Leaving CoEmpathic Stems

Imagine yourself as a tree with a leaf named Yang connected to a branching twig named Yin, having a sappy conversation about EarthMother's sacred trees of life and dormant death. Do you think yintegrity's twig would want to correct YangLeaf’s beliefs that life and death are climatic seasons of warming evolution and freezing devolution? dormancy decomposing into further incarnations of Earth’s organic soul, feeding Yang and Yintegral root systems of future tree’s healthy perennial growth? Yet, for the leaf named Yang, once separated from his crowning twig, wealthy economic and political ego-life is but one life nurturing season before Yang's original fall from yincarnate tree’s seasonal rings of revolutionary root systemic redevelopment yet Yang's yintegral potential remains engaged with resonant recircling evolution of regenerative soil souled life spanning many organic growing seasons Life experienced as Yintegrity's twigged tree thriving, then gradually slowing, within sacred EarthTribe's interdependent polyculturing forest.

Yes, I'm feeling more like a leaf than a twig, much less an entire tree, right now. Mortality feels ambivalently, yet ubiquitously, close. So delighted that someone else enjoys this piece, as I do.
