What Goes Must Come

"One who does not know
really knows,
and one who knows
really does not know."
Laotse

Squirrel medicine
under-stands external relations

Economies
of stimulus leads to response
leads to ever competitively hoarding stimuli
toward ever more response
of trees with tasty treats
of linear win/lose systems 
unfolding time's next natural response.

Turkey medicine
COM-PREHENDS internal interrelationships

Economies of ecologic,
dipolar revolving appositions
of apparent contrasts
co-arising within stimulating squirrels
and responsive nuts,
hunter and hunted
on their path toward mutually transformative cycles
of regeneration,
poop and pee feeding tree root systems
feeding leaves and flowers and seeds
feeding squirrels and turkeys.

Who is wise enough
to know gratitude
in response to circular
recycling win/win systems?
We are.

What reckons and redeems win/lose dissonance?
Competing reiterative cycles 
of in v out-formating consumption.

When can we experience deep reconnection?
We are wisdom's integrity potential.

Where confluent creolizing revolution?
Here is Anthro-gratitude where 
as Now is Earth-fore-given-nest when,
co-arising nondual redundancy
of where and when's deep wisdom Why.

Why recommit, rehabilitate?
Toward EarthTribe cooperative healthy purposes 
of MotherNature's co-passionate eco-normic meaning,
understanding sacred purposes 
we already wisely com-prehend.

SquirrelTribe's right felt Justice
restores TurkeyWise left thoughtful
cycles of relationship

Trees of co-arising light crowns
inspired by knowing 
co-gravitating empowering root systems
of deep indigenous wisdom 
co-prehension.

Thanks much for taking a moment to say so. I'm still working through my thesaurus over in the Zubair Department.
