Spring Dog and Falling Eagle
Spring Dog,
like any terrorist
I've ever not quite met,
not seen eye to eye,
nor found knowable,
nor fathomable,
Out to see the world
and form colonies
to feed his cancered Ego,
Teaches his hungry disciples
that success
goes to those who push
most resiliently.
I work against fear
we are heading for a confrontation,
where Earth must win
so Spring Dog must
inevitably
unpopulate.
Earth's journey
away from terror
and toward compassion
experiences intelligently designed success
with those who cooperatively pull
toward nutritious multicultural resonance.
Spring Dog
dismisses EarthMothers
as too weak
and poor in Spirit,
Not yet realizing
His poor in Spirit
is also Falling Eagle's
rich in cooperative MotheringNature.
Summer Otter
mediates between these ways of seeing
slippery slopes toward owning Earth
encourage Spring Dogs
to treat EarthTribes,
human
and OtherWise,
as natural
unspirited,
secular resources,
owned domestic elements for harvesting,
property to feed
and heat
his Winter Hawk nest
of capital-infestment
Further fueling Falling Eagles
to pull full-flight
toward more cooperative reinvestment.
