Umbilical Strings of Time

The umbilical cord connecting Left-dominant Yang with Right-integrative Yin stretches back to alga and fungus, symbiotically congressed as bilateral lichen. Lichens are a couple of specifics within which the hybrid whole revolutionarily erupts more than the zero-sum of its equivalent dipolar alga and fungus parts, symbiotic co-arising functions, like Yang with Yin, like side-by-side universal ego-hunters of nutritional souls, and networked unitarian eco-gatherers integrating their diverse absorption, recreating ecopolitical healthy productions. Alga strengths of dry sugar photosynthesis fueled by light and air conjoin fungus spreading wet stringing licks integrating minerals, together giving birth to carbon-based lichen, new life. A similar Yang male ego-soul hunter symbiotically married with Yin eco-mineral gatherer might be found in Y-chromosome producer strength with X-concave chromosome, consumer of cooperative bilateral matriarchal flow functions. And, yang and yin dipolar functions might further follow this umbilical cord of history back to alga acting out androgen and fungal integrity within cytosine, root appositional dipolarity of RNA, Elder regenerative story of DNA, thymineyang with cytosineYinYin-squared, fractal-regenerative only dipolar balancing together, double-binding octaves of regenerative light and sound, dance and music. Yang reappears ultra-violet with Yin's sea green algae aquamarine shining spiral octaves of internal enlightenment, like fireflies inhabiting a summer dream of shining sea stars brightening dark oceans ebbing yang and flowing yin tides of umbilical symbiotic time.
