Commissioned by architectural engineer Roberto Padovani for R&P Green Solution's Brickworks Shopping Center, Melbourne, Australia, entry in the Living Building Challenge.
All ye who enter here
despairing statues of salted liberty,
merging solidarity with Earth’s poor hunger
to range free falling Victorian bricks
and mal-bourne sticks
to land here with now
with all arrived before you
prepared to grace Earth’s healthy breathing space
and time of BrickWork ReGenesis,
structuring minds investing recomposing bodies,
bay to mountain swinging resonant designs
recycling Earth’s well-bourne habitation,
celebration
with all entering here with now
climates of each day’s great transition.
LifeWork EcoLogic draws history as written by our stars.
BrickWorld Cathedrals incarnate Earth’s enculturation
as sung by sunlight’s ecopolitical designers,
of MultiCultural ReGenesis.
Seek within our lower reaches
to resolve with them as us
finding hidden ex cathedra golden,
yet not-so-rushing,
stone.
Conjoin these bricks
of nature’s rich vocation light,
regenerating enbrightenment
to guide your exodus
until we enter here once more
to sing and dance
among Earth’s ReGenerate Cathedrals.
