In Colchester, CT,
and possibly in your town too,
we have a LongTerm ReCoVery Committee
looking at 20/20 prevision
for post-pandemic climate health revisions
for wealthy local and global EarthJustice.

So, what have I noticed
that might be economically
and ecologically win/win useful?

In a post-pandemic
post-Trump StraightWhitePatriarchal-capitalist cabal,
post-BusinessAsUsual anthropocentric economic climates
of All-Or-Nothing scarcity
Either-Or caste supremacy
Winner v Loser competitive access to health-care,

We over-value
fundamentally left-brain privileged subconscious
and/or unconscious bipolar LoseAnthroMind+LoseEarthBody
absolutist
caste supremacist
xenophobic
anthropocentric climates

For sorta virally nasty primates
and for our actively curious win/win compassionate
engaged organic allies
immersed in Earth’s restorative justice
and sentient peace mediations

Co-invested witnesses
for co-empathic cooperation

For political,
ecological,
and possibly even win/win systematic teleological,
mutual
and eco-spiritual,
physical
and metaphysical,
compassionate verbal
and non-verbal
mediating communication systems
in our local bioregional outside
non-anthropocentric
environments.

1. Our unnatural and internationally commodified food
   distribution systems
   are less cost/effectively efficient
   and less environmentally friendly
   than old-fashioned
   local cooperative gardens
   and extended family farms
   organically planned
   and community implemented
   to deliver fresh locally grown
   cooperatively-owned,
   produced,
   and health and wellness wealth
   consumed.
2. Chronically stressed
   by social-polarized politically
   and economically divesting
   unraveling distancing,
   human nature looks for more multicultural ways
   to reconnect with nearby domestic
   win/win democracy healthy
   and safer Organic Natures.

I have neighbors who had to take a number
to adopt a rescued dog.

I have neighbors whose household income is so reduced
they could afford to continue pet health care
cooperative consumer-owned insurance payments
if a local vet petcare network
with sliding fee and volunteer time-equity payment plans
were available.

I suddenly have a lot of neighbors
who are way more cooperatively invested
in the win/win companionship
of their healthy non-mask wearing dogs
and cats
than they are in masked
or unmasked me.

[Which is OK
because I’ve found myself reduced
more recently seduced
by the sexiness of a MotherTree
standing starkly now this autumn
in Her scandalous scaled
unmasked
unleafed
vulnerable
transparently communicating
nudity.]

3. I was waiting
   at least six feet apart
   in the Goodwill line
   eighteen miles outside Colchester
   remembering a mom
   who is also an Economic Development Commissioner
   observing that Colchester lacks clothing
   and household goods retail
   because we are a population under-scaled,
   not yet over-infested with corporate big-box
   retailed
   bought-and-sold
   local economy monopolizing
   capitalist economic systems
   overpowering potential local cooperative networks.

And I’m remembering
all the consumer fun I had,
when my kids were still children,
shopping in good-used consignment shops;
a more suburban version
of Goodwill
cooperative-urban.

Then I remembered Colchester,
a new location to me
moved in during this pandemic,
is quietly rural
and village bedroom community,
where sweaters
under and over my arms
wait to travel with me
to our new home;

These may well have come
from Colchester to Norwich,
waiting to travel back again.

I wonder
what it would be like
to have local clothing and household goods
shopping options while riding bike
to a local CoOp and ConSignment Shop

Where good used stuff is further discounted
for CoOp consumers and re-salers,
owner co-managers
include a diverse abilities,
human resource savvy,
LongTerm Win/Win RePurposing Team.

4. I also noticed
   I have become so horribly contained
   by our national and international addiction
   to win/lose partisan debates
   and vicious circle entertainments
   and mutually antagonistic
   economically viscous capitalistic political assumptions

I forget Earth’s more Whole EcoSystemic
Win/Win regenerative economics
politically empowering,
cooperatively mediating,
mentoring long-term restorative
resilient regeneration

Through Her long-term climate
of health/wealth-care
cooperative wellness trends.

I’ve been listening to local candidates
for democratically healthy leadership positions,

Noticing how many are attorneys,
trained well by and for an adversarial
self-advertising debate
left-brain verbal consciousness dominant
punishing competitions
in eco-political
non-communicating
non-virtuously criminalizing
marginalizing
bullying
partisan debate

Rather than discussing
long-term reconnecting peace opportunities
for local/global
inside/outside
ego/eco-compassionate co-investment.

I also remember
one of many recent zooming conversations
I’ve tried not to have
since Marching 20/20

Listening to an attorney
retrained by win/win-seeking
restorative justice mediating
therapeutic process
progressively mentoring more of a deep listening
multiculturally intelligent
bicamerally balancing
good inside-sacred+outside-organic,
ecological/theological/neurological
metaphysical+physical transformation

Interfaith neuropsychological news
re-ligioning eco-political compassionate communication
for cooperatively empowering
community developing
health/wealth-care resilient systems

And collaboratively enlightening
wealth/health care EarthJustice
local/global
poli/economic
polypathic win/win
cooperative communication network development.

Colchester
must already include
attorneys
and public/private health-care financial investors
and business LeftBrain dominant win/lose
win/win optional strategy,
non-fundamentalistic moderators

Public health evangelizers,
Whole System Thinking/Feeling educators
and mediators,
mentors anticipating other multiculturally ecosystemic thinkers
and collaborative feelers,
AnthroMind+EarthBody balanced teachers and parents,
peace pastoral preachers
and their win v lose caste preservation penitents
capable of 20/20 envisioning/revisioning
win/win compassionate communication

For healthier and wealthier
resilient,
indigenously and multiculturally resonant

(post-pandemic lose/lose,
post-win/lose
anti-ecologically misanthropocentric risks)

For post-pandemic climate health
and resilient democratic wealth-care.
