Rev. Gerald Dillenbeck Poet Political Verse

Understanding Yhwh

Do I politically understand you
YHWH
enough
to predict you enjoy your unpersonified ego
as partly successful predator-light
racing against mortality shared by all living species
because we are not yet godly resilient enough?
To meet your supreme judgmental win/lose zero-sum standards
of natural/spiritual dual/dark degeneration.

Have you deliberately,
with full intent,
designed living systems
to fall apart 
beyond our internal capacity
to perpetually regenerate?
To fragment, eventually
degrade beyond autonomous recognition,

Like an autumn leaf
leaving ego's immortal goddess tree of life behind
to fertilize future god-souled roots
of nutritional RNA
healthy DNA
fertility of EarthMother's'
self-perpetuating regenerativity;
yet still squabbling,
on co-empathic occasion,
in-between whether the apostrophe 
goes lefts or rights
of our original EarthSouls's.

Do I understand you
YHWH
regeneratively win/win inclusive enough?
For godly-humane compassion,
resilient interdependent yang-yin communication,
to live within hypothetical hyphen's'
spiraling temporal health and happiness roots 
ZeroZen 
nutritional multi-regenerational imagination.

Maureen McGreavy Pigeon Tart April 22, 2019 at 8:55 AM nicely done! ...I heard the tetragrammaton in feminist lore mistranslation from EVE ;) Rev. Gerald Dillenbeck April 22, 2019 at 12:07 PM Thanks so much--and I hadn't even heard about the tetra and the eve-ning translation problem so, something more to learn about.
