nation supremacy,
rooted in competing patriarchal capital rivalries,
is entirely incompatible with EarthPatriotism
rooted in loyalty to cooperatively healthy matriotism

Wherever MotherEarth may yet be healthy climate rediscovered

You think that you can cage this phoenix and expect my flames to simmer down, 
In hopes that the heat that is extracted from my aura is diminished.
But you are misinformed and mistaken.

Ten is the number to begin
Early in the garden
Gathering herbs, foxglove and more
On her face casual grin

Reminding me of the past.
Steam builds as it circulates around the fans

I taste a small droplet of the sizzling delight
Only to find myself reminded...

Wart of hubris, sweat of cursed
Jealous eyes and greed at worst

Blood from pride, tears from pain
Some wretched feelings from disdain.
