Who Are We

Who are we
in ego's deductive dark winter
decomposing fallen embryos
nurturing healthcare?

Who are we
springtime consumers of inductive light
and dark wet nights
nourishing ecstatically growing life systems?

Who are we
in diastatic summer's full regeneration,
bright light warm absorbing flows
of water's baptismal promise?
risk,
opportunity 
for future replenishment?

Who are we
producing fall's winnowed harvests
branching
flowing
flying scattered seeds of time's intense dense integrity?

Advent of four-prime spiral seasons,
light's empowerment
balancing heart-root rhythmic systems
flowing Earth's nurturing river 
of rich polycultural 
polypathic 
polymorphic becoming

Understory for Earth's Ground of Being,
RNA soil languaging DNA soul regenerators,
revolutions enfolding evolution's bilateral Tao way.

Philosophical meditation covering a world entire with real care of it and its evolutions.Well written and with many valuable ideas. By the way:I saw a poster with different ”images” of supposed ancestors like homo habilis...homo Neanderthalis, till homo erectus, then, setep-by- step in front of the computer with curbed column becoming just like the first representatives...

Thanks for your invested response. I remember an album cover, perhaps Jethro Tull?, that began as you say, but the decomposition stage was reversing the physiological development back to a curled baby in fetal position. All powerful imagery of returning as we have become.
