Patriotic Parenting
Parents
exercising totalitarian rights
to abuse and neglect WinWin family governance resolutions
for restoring peace with EarthJustice climates,
develop unfortunate children
perpetually longing
for their revengeful turn
at decompositional bat.
Families pulling through well-anchored weeds
of life's,
love's,
collected and too quickly grown redundant detritus,
hoping to break free into a center pond of tranquility,
fond spacetime place,
to escape entrapment of loss
and mere mortal limitations
of and for restoring justice
to remaining boundary areas
of vulnerability,
integrity with unsettled loss,
degenerating
constraints of relationships
producing sad loves
regret for restraint
when letting go of LeftBrain only oars,
taking slower time to float
more deeply
richly
co-learning fuller depths and heights
within yin willow shrubs
reaching down for retribution's thirsty waters
And yang cedar canopied giants
cooperatively waving up
preaching of centering
harmonizing
restoring winds
for late summer morning delight.
Parenting
is like growing and knowing trees,
both forward into regenerative futures
and backward
down toward their nutritious
Elder willowing,
culture creolizing,
sacred transubstantiating
root centers.
Vraksha mother tree functions
are economically
and, more sacredly, ecologically
cut
and yet politically
virgin uncut.
Mahiruha people
grow both on and in
EarthMothers.
Sakhi trees
have cooperative evolving arms and olive branches
and therefore multiculturing sacred roots.
Padapa people
inhale therapeutic water
through our natural root systems
as we exhale enlightenment
through our languaged falling leaves
of abundant harvest trees.
Taru trees
bring cooling shade to EarthTribes
yet heat and fuel
through winter's NewMoon
lack of bright.
Agama parents
cannot move their RightWingOnly Exegetical Traditions
yet can wave
and weave
an reweave history
through cooperative
patriarchal-matriarchal bicamerolling nights.
Palasi trees
have enlightening leaves
so also central common trunks
cooperative with healthbound nutrition,
up and down
toward sacred reforesting root systems.
Vanaspati people
are those bearing only fruit
and harvesting only our most polypathically healthy seeds.
Vanaspatya trees
fruit
and flower
and pollinate cooperatively
and deflower competitively.
Osadhi parents
die after fruitful life ripens
and before fruits,
now beloved,
currently repotentiate.
Virudhi willow shrubs
and Yang cedar forests
reach root systemically sacred down
toward re-baptismal multiculturing waters,
yet preaching up,
of,
and for
reweaving canopied cooperatives
of co-gravitating
late summer
healthy winds.
Parents
exercising MotherTree EarthRights
to restore reforesting justice
well beyond center ponds of freedom for wallowing
exhalations
anticipating cedar's mighty polypathic inhale
through waving canopies
of shading sunlight,
recreating networks
of dappling rainbow delight.
