Who said?
Health isn't about politics!
Health shouldn't be about politics!
Health should be above partisan politics!
Healthy systems
are not about unchanging purity
and safety
and traditional dogma.
Healthy ego and eco systems
are much more about diversity
flexibility
and courageous curiosity
Just as wealthy economic networks,
local through global,
include ecological interrelationships
We might associate resonance
with polyculturally robust interactions,
personal and political,
Multiculturally resilient
dynamic stasis--
Slow inclusive
and diversely intricate
Beauty
cross-pollinating
climaxing inclusive diversity
Avoiding the monocultural purity
and calculating sobriety
of a 100% crabgrass landscape,
Or 100% concrete
Or 100% saltwater environment
with no above water healthy ecosystemic landmass
embedded in prehistoric
pure and safe
powerful but unenlightened
bedrock.
