Phylogeny is to homology
as ecological respiration
is to theological aspiration.
I think
I shall never feel
a phylogenic tree
as uprooted
as homo-unlogical me.
Phylogenic chaos
is to ego-monological supremacy
not as ecological tree respiration
is to theological
root-nutritional
inspiration
As timelessly flowing Here egocenters
are to Now resiliently climaxing ecosystems
In which I think
I will always feel
phylogenic historical invitations
to homological co-passioning grace
and heterodoxical healthy choice.
