Rudyard Remix

If you can keep your health when all about Are losing theirs as ours and blaming separately sick on you, If you can trust ourselves when all species doubt And reintegrate healthy green doubting too; If you can act and not be red and tired from over acting And being lied about, don't invest in retaliatory fake, And becoming hated, give active way to loving, And yet don't smell too wealthy, nor walk too SuperElite wise... If you can walk with crowds to feed our therapeutic virtues, And speak with polypathic Gods--nor win the losing touch, If both foes and family can desert you, If all Tribes count with you and yet not ego-monoculturally much; If you can refill each uninvested moment with sixty second's wealth of health well run, Yours is Earth and every Tribe healed in Her, And--eco-theo-logically more-- we'll be a Therapeutic AnimaSoul, ZeroZone for healing WinLose patriarchal LeftBrain over-heated over-crowded inmates!
