A creolizing transfiguration of the TwentyThird Psalm. With respect and gratitude to sacred patrilinear regenerators.

Holy EarthSpirit
is our seed bearer.

Our blue celestial universe 
could lack nothing
In meadows of green sweetgrass
She enlightens repose.

Into living waters of recomposure
She bears then leads us;
There S/He revives Earth's compassioned soul.

She guides me
by polypaths of virtue
not forsaking Her sense-rooted story.

Though we pass through this gloom
doom river valley,
I fear no mountainous trauma;

Within me
your rooted integrity
and your well-seeded womb are here,
to hearten and enlighten us.

You prepare a wealth gardened table
between us
under the eyes of my predative
and hoarding enemies;

You anoint our capital driven values
with multicultural oil,
my catholic creolizing communion cup
brims cooperatively over.

Ah, how active hope enlightenment
and empowering love pursue us,
every day and night of Earth's living systems;

My home,
the recreation of ecowomanist
re-imaged Yahweh,
As long as Earth light power
revolves around Sun's well-blessed 
EarthTribe Womb.
