Rapture

No one speaks of Rapture anymore What could one say short of singing and dancing graceful tandem play? Even evangelists seem less sure Rapture is a grace-filled promise of reward for virtue and not merely a hell-fire threat to punish capital idolatry, greedy sophistry Wondering whether global Rapture is more a sacred blessing and less an inhumane curse against our ignorant enemies Or somehow both therapy and trauma depending on the day and divides and polarizing history of secular dark unholy Truth devoid of sacred Beauty Antithesis to EarthTribe Rapture which would feel more inclusively therapeutic in all the great divine dark deeply hidden genderal places AND humane co-infested communion spaces Ecstasy of empowerment and integrity of enlightenment tracing back through Her synergetic win/win history of not 0-sum synergy Yintegral Yang mystery wu-wei hypostatic union win/win co-redemptive Rapture of non-violent communication practice ComPassion praxis rituals of co-empathic communion, mountain shading valley Transcendently omnipotent strength embracing immanently omnipresent flow back and forth down and up past and future Sun Light and EarthPeace Powers reproducing seasons and reasons anticipating hard polarities passion curious holistic remedies for mortal terror. Rapture of secular filthy fecund mind greets sacred fertile body meets mindful truths of boundless EarthTribe beauty.
