With apologies to John Lennon, and mutually intended thanks for rich resonance. we're still getting by, etc., "With a Little Help from My Friends."

What would you do if I walked out on you? Would you stand up and sing out of key? I'm really quite sure if you did this to me I would sit down and dream how to be. Do we need everybody? We sure need sometime to be. Could it be anybody? As long as that someone's not me. What would I do if you came home from school? Would I ask what you learned out of key? You're not really sure what they thought they might teach. You were being what you might become. Do you hear anybody? I just need someplace to be. Could it be anybody? As long as they don't act like me. What would Yang do to fill out his vast form? Would YinYin win to flow and fill in? How light might we get to know empathy? Could time's nature refold us again? Do we need to feel better? We all need someEarthTime to love. Could we be anybody? No, We Occupy CoPresence Today, we occupy EcoPresent ToNight Earth's ReGenerate Rooting Rite to appreciate even more ecotherapeutic co-arising political with economic eco-logical consciousness. EcoPolitical Science merges co-evolutionarily positive v. negative dialecticality theories sharing ecologically with analogically primal roots in BiCamerality ReGenerativity Syntaxed Fractal-Time Form with Balancing Functionality. PositiveYang with NeutralYin as Holy Holonic (0)-soul Spirit with DoubleNegative YinYin EcoPresent Aptic co-arising "content-Present" reiterative default (-,-) TransParent CoPresence of Time's Folding Unfolding Refolding PreFolder Prime Relational (0)-Soul EcoSpiritNature. I think it is true but I'll leave it to you, we could gain a better therapeutic high sustained through future regenerations with a little more help from our more ecotherapeutically self-governing friends and cooperative health optimization policy writers, and investors of both time and that stuff we use to get high off ego-competition consumer games, when we could richly warmly invest in eco-cooperation Win-Win Games.
