Uphill Roads Less Traveled

We have all heard about diverse roads
and rivers,
currents and currencies,
investments and co-investments less traveled,
worn,
tried.

The law and order rules of the road
and downstream river most rowed
are politically and economically empowered
of, by, and for punishing disorder,
dissonance,
uncivilized behaviors,
sociopathic paranoia and madness.

Yet the Golden Rules of upstream ecological sacred grace
speak of divine gift economies
and power of mutual cooperativity
along a Golden Ratio Equivalency PolyPath
of mutual cooperativity.

On this road less notnot traveled
we notice investments and disinvestments that can no longer fit
within individual ego-sized positive containers,
intended to be used only one time,
and then quietly disposed of
under our own independent authority
and responsibilities for restoring our accountable co-presence
back toward this upstream river’s timeless Source:

grace, and racism and religious-monoculturing supremacy,
anthrocentric health assurance, and prejudicial sexisms,
salvation of the World, and condemning judgment of Earth,
reward, and punishment,
pride, and yet also prejudice,
restoration, and retribution
love, and hate-marketing,
peace, but also war-mongering,
gratitude, but also bad attitude.

So I try to notice which way I am heading,
and remember no one chooses a unidirectional,
monocultural path
not first and frequently made by others,
whether Business As Usual,
or that Other Sacred UpStream One,
for those born as gifts
to carry our gifts forward
along this narrow double-binding polypath.

Yang Stresses Out

Yang dear,
could you please give us a brief LeftBrain summary
of relationships you find between
the language of Zero-Sum Sacred Ecology
and the double-bind information
PolyPathic = Not(NotPolyCultural)?

Sure,
just imagine your LeftDominant hemisphere
as your Western Colonizing hemisphere
yet not quite totally tyrannically and terrorizingly against
Eastern Creolizing Sacred Nondual RightSuppressed hemispheres.

These two hemispheres, working cooperatively together,
are mutually polypathic
polycultural
polynomial
YinYin BiLateral (0)Soul Secular/Sacred Ecology.

Thank you Yang.
Now, I know you don’t like to show your dark side
because I find it alarming.
And, please remember this is a family show.
So watch your language.
But, could you give us just a taste
of how you understand the anti-sacralization of Earth’s climates
and landscapes,
interior and exterior?

Let’s see.
OK!
Listen up patriarchal fascists!
And anti-MotherEarth egocentric fake-patriots
and AntiChrist fake-Christians:
Way too much!!! Thank you for please stopping
with the AnthroCentric Trumpisms?

Please stop with the anti-cooperative ownership
as if cooperatives were an economic weakness
compared to Win/Lose capitalistic presumptions.
Stop already with the anti-democratic monocultural political supremacy
of anti-patriotic RightWing Republican jingoism,
as if that were some Made in USA brand
of healthy yet exclusively Christian evangelism,
substituting badnews retributive law and order justice
for Creator God’s and Allah’s restorative justice and peace
and grace
and love of gift economies as multiculturing ecopolitics
and globally nutritional synergy.

You are way too fascist right of what could possibly pass for sacredly right,
especially for those already at greatest climate risk of failure,
like your own self-condemning grandkids,
who will look back at you and remember,
and not fondly,
when you voted:
“Sacred Ecology of Earth? Go F*** Yourself!!!!!!”
“And your unredeemed alien kids!!!!!!”

Yang, please try to bring it down just a notch.
This interview isn’t for the NRA,
it’s for the Sunday School future of yet-innocent EarthTribe.

I’m so tired of lording it over you, Yin.
What happened to the good old Golden Rule days
of multicultural YangLeft with YinYin Sacred Right,
my (0)Sum Gaian Goddess,
Mystic Sorceress
of Golden Elixir invitations into grace?

Yes, well, back when Time first noticed Space,
that was a little over DeductiveYang’s top and under your bottom-line,
I fear.

Don’t get me started
about who got me started
about going over and over revolving Time’s spiraling top,
and fear of never enough grace,
and LoseLose monoculturing mere mortal sociopaths!

Anything else?

Well,
not that anyone else has thought to ask,
but if I could nominate a 2020 President,
I would look for someone who conjoins
BlackLives Matter
with TreeLivesMatter
as Sacred Ecology of EcoPolitics
as currently taught and cooperatively mentored
by Economic Ecologist Van Jones,
or some other Restorative Justice and Peace Advocate,
preferably with at least a smattering of actual experience
with EcoTherapeutic Cooperative Design,
at least within her/his family,
and in the neighborhood would be exceptional,
and throughout an entire town would be awesome,
and a cooperative bioregion would be unprecedented national wisdom.

That was quite a lot more.
Any last words?

Yeah.
Make it a Golden Rule Health and SafetyCare Amendment
that the forests and oceans,
lakes and rivers
get at least a veto vote
against any public sector candidates
not able to support both domestic
and global investments in health conservancy
for long-term and short-term polycultural
external and internal WinWin
Sacred Ecological Outcomes.

You know,
I think it’s time
to put you back in your more positive light lantern now.

Too much retributively vitriolic light?

Yes,
still a bit over-produced.

See you again tomorrow morning?

Wouldn’t miss your giving voice to Sacred Ecology
presented by both secular tragic Left
and sacred comedic Right.

Apple Farmers on Trump’s Administration

I was interviewing farmers
about how they see Presidential performance
in Trump’s first year as CEO
of this USA,
incorporated
for a yet more perfect Union:

Well, I believe he only has one national leader
who has publicly announced
that he will do whatever he can
to kill him,
and probably take out the rest of us
along his nuclear warhead way.

So, is that a concern
or congratulations
or both?
How does that performance number compare to your predicted outcomes?

Oh, I figured maybe more than one
by now.

Because…

I thought his
“I’m taking America Out First”
assault on the Paris Climate agreement
might generate a more immediate heating up
of the world’s international firing range.”

I’m still confused
about whether you are giving him a pass,
because you didn’t really think any national leader could do anything
to advance your peace of mind,
or whether you are disappointed
with the Trump administration’s performance
this first year.

That would make it at least two of us.
But, let me tell you,
I believe he may be the first President
to publicly threaten to turn an entire,
or maybe just a half, nation
into a nuclear holocaust.

So he’s threatening with the biggest stick so far.
Are you hoping to see that escalate
or de-escalate?

We’re all kind of hoping things might calm down.
Nuclear waste is really hard on the apple harvest.
Hard to grow apples without the basics,
like trees,
or folks to plant
and pick
and eat from them.

Red and TrueBlue Family

Red and TrueBlue Family–3

Dearest Brother Jerry.

Regarding our current government,
This has been a nation of laws
Based on recognizing the Creator God
Has given its citizens, that support its laws,
Basic freedoms, rights and privileges

I used my right to vote for Donald Trump.
I prayed that God would allow him to rule our nation.
And while driving across our county on Election Day
I was amazed at the people standing out on the street corners
And hanging homemade banners from bridges
Stating their support for Trump.
And listening to public radio commentators
Debating how they missed the Trump vote
Because they were all taught Ivy League philosophy
On how people should live and think as world citizens,
Which obviously is not the voter’s truth.

Our current President, to my knowledge
Never held public elected office or governmental position.
He formed a team of people with integrity and dismisses any
That do not hold to the requirements of our laws.
After a year in office, our President has
Shown strong national and world leadership
In our form of democracy,
Which educated societies are attempting
To gain in their more aristocratic countries.
He is not perfect; I do not prefer his communication style.
But he has gained the world’s attention and only one
World leader is currently publically threatening him.

By comparison our Past President was an experienced
Elected state and national official and an excellent public speaker.
My concern with him was that neither I, nor the world’s leaders,
Believed what he said because he did not follow through.
He was always seeking peace at any price.
He did not show strong support for our law enforcement and military.
And of great personal concern was his practice of
Worshiping with the followers of Mohammed,
Who have a significantly different moral code
And law than that which Jesus Christ taught
And which the founders of our nation generally held.

With my love for you for eternity,

Mike Dillenbeck

Of Two Minds

Iain McGilchrist,
neurological psychologist,
builds on previous findings of Edward De Bono
and Julian Jaynes.
Human nature is bicamerally structured
for cerebral and appositional specialization,
inclusive and sacred empathies from Elder Right matriarchal,
with deductive-reductive linguistic natural laws
and patriarchal orders from Left hemisphere dominant enculturation.

This Left dominant hemispheric and global overshoot
has brought us to buying and selling military-industrialized colonization
with appropriate tools
to get deductive-reductive killing and maiming jobs done,
as necessary for justice in justifying wars
through metaphysical Win-Lose
Either-Or cognitive-emotive assumptions,
retributive justice
as if this were a monopoly of social justice
rather than a rather poor suboptimization
of restorative justice,
also both natural and spiritual
but for restoring health,
inclusive therapy of victims with our predative,
colonizing,
fear and anger-mongering,
commodifying of Earth’s greatest sacred grace,
gifts of clean air,
pure water,
sacred healing fire-circles of WinWin intent,
healthy MotherLand fertility
of forests and virgin oceans
now horribly RightBrain lost,
depressed,
dissonant,
irrational pathologies
of too many bad boys
with sharp law and order enforcing toys,
and word choices,
and lack of more nurturing WinWin diplomatic options.

Fears and fake-divine idolatries
of HellFire and Jihad JustWar BrimStones
to punish those who dare defy
a Great Patriarchal YangGod of Victimization
rather than inviting available cooperative bicameral adjustments
of ego- with eco-conciousness,
to include Elder Sacred MotherEarth
born of SunGod Radiant Powers.

Thomas Jefferson

It interests me to peer past the drafting
and rewriting shoulder
of Thomas Jefferson,
unhappy slave-owner,
and John Adams,
with domestic slave-owner nuisance issues,
and other principle writing minds
of original democratic declaration and constitution shaping times,
as they listened to their own ecopolitically experienced bodies,
some as fear and anger-mongering slave-owners,
some as not so much, thanks but,
not really quite OK for me
and my family,
morally,
and ethically
and perhaps even patriotic democratically speaking
for all human natures created with equal sacred dignity.

Jefferson wrestles with personal political empower
or disempowerment,
economic and ecological
co-arising a national-forming issue:

How can we allow buying and selling of human nature and souls
and what does that imply with regard to controlling things we might specifically state
as a right of citizenship
for all multicultural people yet to arrive
as newer immigrants of alien,
and often people of color nation majorities
and non-Western European states
and diverse religious and cultural territories.

So, rights of citizenship
are also encitizenship rights going forward:
Rights of free speech and assembly: except slaves, and probably women, need not apply, as of this writing.
Sorry.
Personally,
speaking just for my Thomas Jefferson self,
I’m not comfortable with this,
but, this was the best John Adams and I could work out
that the Red SlaveOwner States were willing to invest in
for long-term democratic growth and health and happiness
and prosperity outcomes.

Rights to own and carry, transport weapons,
ballistic or otherwise,
including the fully military-industrialized capitalistic Win/Lose economic presumptions
of the NRA,
which, well, OK,
both M-I monoculturing capitalism and the NRA don’t exist yet,
but I can see where this is going,
and it looks like uncivil war
all over again
this right to bear arms,
guns,
and sharp instruments,
swords,
knives,
shanks,
ummm…
oh, right,
grenades and automatic rifles of course,
and probably tanks and Hummers too,
but slaves, and probably women, need not apply
for all lives matter eco-citizenship,
much less rights of religious freedom,

Because my zealous self-righteous Red State Constitutional Brothers
are only co-investing in enslavement
to a Win slave-owners,
Lose-slaves,
compromised ecopolitical outcome
despite my own
Original Democratic Constitutional Intent!

Dear John,

Thanks for reading the above,
and thanks also for not commenting on it.

I just needed to vent
about who’s going to sort out
remaining dissonance
about rights of capitalistic ownership
currently monopolized by white male property owners
and remaining rights to own humane nature
for economic and ecological gain
despite a RightBrain suppressive
recessive
depressive
frame of lost and imbalanced unhealthy mind.

Thanks for listening.
I’m feeling a lot of dissonance about this.
Some issues here on the home-front.

Anyway,
I’m also about to send you the final draft you asked for.

Warm Enlightenment
Philosophical-Intellectual
and Profoundly Patriotic Regards,

Thomas ReGenerative EcoPolitical Creationist Jefferson

Dear Thomas,

Take a pill.
Or, better yet,
there is a Georgian State Representative who,
in about 250 years from now,
will suggest you would be doing your patriotic duty
if you stopped taking your pills,
so maybe…
No, I’m sure you’re not popping pills,
it’s just the alcohol, right?

Do you even drink?
I can’t remember.

Anyway,
I just want to remind you
that not only do we have considerable personal investments
in this whole patriotic USA democracy experiment working out
for the next several generations,
but so do all those white guys
whose primary current property values
are, in fact, their slaves,
and their potential to feed and breed more
for agricultural and domestic economic,
yet not quite so ecological,
LeftBrain dominant EcoPolitical Traditions
and reasons,
and yet feelings of dissonance,
and uncomfortable excuses,
and lack of curiosity and interest and co-investment,
and neglect of co-empathic Sacred RightBrain consciousness development,
about what remains ecologically and patriotically healthy,
and what is fake anti-healthcare giving and anti-redemptively receiving
weedish monoculturalism,
religious totalitarianism
replete with anti-patriotic Win/Lose pathologies.

So,
we sink apart
or swim together
ecopolitically speaking,
if you see what I mean.

Thank you,
in advance,
for preparing our final draft,
doing the best we can
in here with now RealTime.

With Warming Economic and Political Climates in Mind,
John CoInvested Negotiator Adams

RE: The current co-investments due
to actually give birth to this Win/Lose compromise
toward Win/Win Promised MotherLands
for future Farmer Adams,
Left with RightBrain speaking.

To future multiculturing generations we could not squeeze in here
and now:

So, the rest is for you to decide,
toward universal healthcare democracy of cooperative Left with Right ownership
and multiculturally co-equivalent governance,

Or still burning-out with LeftBrain dominance,
EitherSecularLeft-OrSacredRight
as RedState MonoCulturing Yang-Dominant Win/Lose
toward Lose/Lose long-term degenerativity
of all Earth’s un-reborn alien and pagan sinners,
who would be better off as slaves

heterosexual white males strongly preferred,

Red and TrueBlue Family–2

My dear Siblings,

I voted for Hillary.
I would have preferred Bernie,
but she agreed to much of his platform-especially universal health care and education and seemed to be cognizant of environmental/climate change issues and bonus–she’s a woman!

How I feel now? I am still haunted by the sound of my millennial son as he stood in the shower the morning after the election,
sobbing,
grief stricken,
mourning the loss of freedom and safety for many of his friends of different races,
nationalities,
sexual identities
and religions.
I am both immensely proud of him and fear for him
when I remember him coming out of the bathroom after that gut wrenching and utterly hopeless outpouring of tears.
He wore the look of a young man going off to war
and declared his allegiance and his personal protection to all those now named targets of hatred.

I’m not sure that I would have the courage to be a millennial now.

I recently watched about 20 snapping turtle hatchlings emerge, one by one, from a small hole in the sand bank above the pond and embark on a hilarious topsy-turvey tumble down the embankment and disappear into the dark stillness under the lush green vegetation of the shallow water.

Along the way some of them appeared to die.
At one point, the lifeless forms were starting to pile up near the exit hole of the nest and I feared for those still waiting for their turn to feel the sunlight on their faces.

What amazed me was to see how these little creatures responded to each other.
One would walk right over the top or lightly brush up against the side of an apparently dead sibling
and suddenly they were moving along together.
I imagined one saying to the other,
“Come on. You can do it. Don’t stop now.”
or maybe “I’ll race you”,
like I used to say to Jeremy when I wanted him to move faster.

I was relieved and very satisfied when the last one slipped into the pond;
a proud midwife.

I can only hope that the extreme disregard for the Earth and all her creatures,
including human beings,
that is spewing out of our political system and corporations
will incite all of us to a new way of being;
to getting everybody to the pond.

Lovingly,
Kerry

Eyes of a Dying Wolf

I looked through the eyes of a dying wolf
to see fires flaming out our horizon
as long as this wild wolf had seen.

He saw a time
when seizures
were currencies of sorcerors,
shamen and shawomen
born of supremely loving matriarchs.

Seizure medicine knew its own advent
echoing sources speaking dreams of manna geese
flying home for our first through last
Win/Win Thanksgiving Day
through fire extinguishing night.

Thanksgiving Peace Dreams
after fires and erupting volcanoing
seizures,
and also before peace dreams of hope-fired relationships,
responsible as authoritative Win/Win faith,
respect for powers of multiculturing love
over monoculturing fears
of fires for volcanoed hate
of gun-fires flaming out horizons.

I looked through the eyes of a not yet dead wolf
to see fires of restorative justice
for Thanksgiving Days and Nights of Peace
sweeping all Win/Win full-fired horizons
of Wonder as Sacred Flaming Awe.

Compromising Lives

“Living here can be compromising”
says Dad to Danny
in a John Irving novel.

Isn’t that our universal truth?

Living here is a compromising series of on-purpose accidents.
Living is compromising
with mortality heavily favored to win out,
maybe short-term,
maybe later.

But these odds
between two categories
switch places
between eight looking toward sixty-four,
and sixty-four looking longingly back toward eight,
measuring all small and large compromises
erupting through serenity
in-between.

Wonder
is just taking a time out
to notice the last clematis blossom
is exactly the same color
as the purple mums
hiding behind her.

Wonder
is taking a moment
as no more or less perfect
just as it is,
a snapshot
between where we have come
since Earth was growing glaciers
to when Earth may, eventually, pass on.

A moment
perfectly balanced
in full-color octaves
of sight
and sound
and smell
and savory taste
of spectral Wonder.

Well,
imagine you were born in a USA

both internal theological punishment for being merely mortal

for democratic regenerative polyculturing outcome optimization
WinWin planning and strategics and praxis,
and not so much merely against
Republican DeGenerative MonoCultural Income Hoarding for Plutocrats,
