Positivenergy Productions

As any economist,
or even a half-conscious politician,
or patient parent knows,
We have two types of deficits;
investments and divestments.

Let's call them NegativEnergy One
and NegativEnergy Two,
or, for short,
just ThingOne
sometimes portends darker ThingTwo.

We may choose a short-term deficit budget
to invest in growing a long-term PositivEnergy surplus,
or interdependent profit.

Or we may choose to contribute to a longterm
toxically overdrawn
eternally divesting waste stream,
like burning currency for fuel
or flushing coins down the toilet
or peeing and pooping where we could have eaten
or taken a warm bubbly bath.

ThingOne
can ZeroSum Win-Lose balance,
Or degenerate into
not even ZeroSum Lose-Lose
ThingTwo
predicting further devastated landscapes
and climate pathologies.

Or NegativEnergy One withdrawals
could resiliently resonate
co-arising PositivEnergy co-investments

Not not ZeroSum
Win-Win
for restoring nutritional
nurturing
multigenerationally cooperative Justice,
Peace,
notnot Trust
with YesYes resonant symmetry.

Symmetry
like synergy
It has an uncertain 
yet resonant ring to it.
