Which Came First
Who would argue
about which came first,
regeneratively intelligent design,
or a decomposing degenerating natural Earth?
No one.
To do so is too patently absurd,
when we choose to see these two
not only as oppositional cause-effect,
but also as appositional
dipolar co-arising balance
of regenerative information
tacitly implied within decomposing energetic balance.
The very idea that either regenerating purpose
or degenerating nature
could originally, foundationally, come one before the other
appears and feels anti-ecological,
like choosing WinLose degenerative static being
over WinWin positive equals double-binding negative deviant
regenerative/degenerative co-arising
toward further multi-generational co-becoming.
