tectonics

tectonics

i feel continental plates colliding

force of earth body evolving, morphing

tectonics of ideology crashing, grinding, rupturing

jostling, cracking, crumbling

groaning, shattering, shaking

eons of tension, stress, and strain

hatred of OTHER, fueled, fed, manipulated

stoked by corporate greed and lusting power

tectonics shifting the landscape

metamorphizing, transforming, reconstituting

releasing, upheaval, erupting

mountains uplifting, mountains succumbing, mountains exploding

subduction, melting, dismantling rock

reconfiguring, oozing, flowing

ruptures and fissures, faults and fracture, cracks and dikes

patriarch and matriarchy

conservative and progressive

fascist and democracy

duality rumbling, swaying, teetering

everything shakes in the waves

quakes in the onslaught

we lose our balance, fail, crumble

storied illusion shattering at the feet of possibility

pinnacles of perceived progress crashing

opulent consumption hollow in the accumulating human tragedy

new landmasses taking form

new valleys, canyons, beaches, vistas emerge

in the rubble, seeding the future, rich volcanic soil nurturing vitality

small shoots of growth, tendrils of life reach for the light

roots grow deep, rooting, taking hold

pure clean rain nourishing the thirst of new bodies, new being

mycelium extending tentacles of connectivity, networking, entwining

interconnectivity, interdependence, co-arising

ecologizing community birthing, nursing, becoming

nurturing a dream of living, as one
