He was in his death bed, or on it,
when I asked the most beautiful man Earth could ever know
about his legacy.

This apparently futile pilgrimage toward,
on behalf of,
climate health?
Is that of which you are so curious?

Yes, how well do you think you did
with all your ecopolitical consuming passion?
Who ate whom,
when your last chapter hits our history books?

As well, no better or worse eating and eaten than you,
or anyone else.
My healthy laughters and sad pathologies
have taught me faith that we each do,
have done,
will always do the best we can
this side of total collapse into hypnotic despair
and despotism.
Perhaps that’s what despair feels most like,
knowing we are and will continue to refuse all avenues toward hope.

Do you really speak so humbly of health?
Would not regenerative destiny proclaim your message more majestically,
gracefully
profoundly?

No, my message, like evolution of Earth’s time itself,
speaks through this multiculturing search for health opportunities.
Healthy people, places, planet.
Healthy minds with healthy bodies.
Parenting and politic-ing healthcare optimization
for ourselves no more or less than all Earth’s Tribes.
Ecological and economic health,
as if these could be different, really.
Psychological and metaphysically robust resonant health.
Paradigmatic and ecosystemic
and biosystemic health
and healthy water
and air
and soil
and even healthy fire and purgation,
self-chosen disciplines for purifying,
cleaning out climates of growing pathology,
swollen fossil piles of Elders past.

I never had or even hoped to have,
I could never imagine having a more awe-inspiring teaching
than caring for multicultural climates of
past and present and future healthy generations.
Healthy relationships and plans and ecopolitical designs
on and for and with each other
and Earth,
our great transitioning organic network-nest.

At this final moment,
or as you move in your culminating direction,
has it grown easier to separate fertile health priorities
from sterile absence of nutritional powers
of sight and smell,
feeling and hearing ecotherapeutic cognition?

Perhaps more comfortable once WinWin health strategies
become more environmentally supported.
Climate health is what is left
after ruling out all those WinLose modeling candidates;
healthy self and other care cannot derive
from pathological competitions
to win alone, if necessary.
It is not possible to win in isolation.
Monocultural isolation of self-identified powers
leads to the ultimate pathology.

You know climate health when you feel it and think it
because it does not smell of nihilistic loss,
emerging decay of climatic pathology.

This does not sound like rousing the climate health-care troops;
a final pep rally.

Well then you probably haven’t written my history
the best you can.

I’ll work on it.

You would achieve healthier outcomes
if you played around with it
instead.
