Mom's Economics 840

Listen my children 
and you shall hear
of the midnight ride
speeding greed will steer.

Just as our cooperative economy
is fueled by gratitude,
our competitive WinLose economy
is fueled by greed.

Other parallel points of contrast
ecologically and logically follow
in their own sweet and sour time.

Cooperative industry,
business
tribes
governments
systems and networks
enjoy organically limited slow-growth
in comparison
to capitalism and elitism and egotism
fast-growth
toward insufficiency of Earth's carrying capacity,
and Yang-dominant WinLose evolutionary enculturation
of Yang-Yin divisive survival stories--
Mom and Dad never could get along--
secularly supplanting sacred
Yin/Yang health/wealth thrival stories
of slow Paradise
revolving seasonally appropriate deep-ecological development,
listening to both redevelopment Left
and reverting-reverse-time decompositional analysis Right
of restoring nutritional-slow
and toxic-fast
health trends.

Further,
and don't fall asleep yet,
we're just getting to the best part,
slow grown cooperatives toward abundance
are dominated by matriarchal/patriarchal integrity stories
more than fast-paced
overshooting patriarchal Westerns with shot gun dissonance,
the chaos of believing and teaching
that justice is what comes out of the end of a rifle association,
incommensurability of values
across economically healthy corporations
     as also ecologically wealthy organic-flowing incorporations,
both born of FatherSun
     deductive LeftBrain enlightenment
and MotherEarth
     inductive RightBrain polyphonic feelings
          of color and sound
          music and dance
               in octave-fractal
               slow-growth marches
                    toward salt marshes
                         predicting oceans
                         of YangLight
                         slow-breeding Yin-tides of revolution.

Matriarchy,
where what is embedded deepest
is also ethically and aesthetically highest
                                                     richest
                                                          healthiest.

Listen my children 
and you shall hear
of the midnight ride
speeding greed will queer.

And everyone died alone unhappily ever after
as before.
