No One Heals Alone

All is quiet
as I exit through the Emergency Entrance
at the local hospital.

I notice a black T-shirt
with a pink ribbon logo
announcing in bold green script
“No one fights alone”

Due to context
I’m guessing we’re talking about fighting cancer;
harm taking us away
from health care giving and receiving
we would all prefer
while walking out of,
rather than lying in,
any Emergency Entrance.

But, I am a theologian
by training
and practical parenting experience,
so I’m thinking,
Why do we not also wear T-shirts
reminding each other
“No one loves alone”

Or even
“No one loves to fight alone”
or even just among ourselves,
within our own households
and habitats.

I ponder my way back to humble Yaris,
with automatic electronic nothing,
and on the radio I hear clusters of fighting themes:
mental illness
domestic violence
gun violence
automated weaponry
military fear and threat stress-testing, enduring, stretching, growing
hazing as baptism through alcohol
depression and repression and suppression
acclimation to chronic climates of terror
and quiet climates of ever more dissonance
lack of healing sleep
anger management
fear mismanagement
mutual assured destruction (MADness)
diplomacy by threat and RightWing arms sales
military industries
applied increasingly to personal and domestic disarray,
local terrors,
households
and habitats
going up in flames
flowing under floods…

No one fights alone
just as no one loves peace alone,
and health
and ecological wealth
and ego-resilience
and eco-systemic balance,
harmony,
synergy.

No one can sustain love
while violently fighting
just as no one can sustain this fight
for climates
and cultures
and ecologies
and theologies of health
by thinking we are
admirable
or somehow credible
or even possible
to sort through
and choose Love alone.

As I exit my car,
now home,
I think
My T-shirt would probably be too wordy,

No one loves to fight disease
and unease
alone.

Especially not God
or Allah
or Patriotic Loyalty to Earth
or wherever we find our
remember to Love messages.

All is quiet
as I enter our home.
I must be,
for this moment,
alone.

How Do We Say God?

How do we say God,
and why does it matter?
If whatever I do say
both is and is not good.

What is sufficient
to define a Creator?
The Sufis remind us
we face God each way.

How do we fix this
divine restoration?
To put back together
what anger tears apart.

Why do we want peace
and not just between terrors?
If God is our Alpha
then hate’s not Omega.

Why do we punish?
Our great hurts need healing.
How are we judging
those we have not yet faced?

How do we see God,
and why could this matter?
If health’s stretched out planning
builds more arms creating splatter.

If God is for health care,
and how could S/HE not be?
Then Love can’t be measured
in automated artillery.

Where is our rich soil
and how have we tilled it?
Or have we over-drilled it
for more blood and gore?

Why do we say God
and how does it matter?
For restoring Christ’s graced peace
sacred seeds grow together.

 

 

These lyrics more or less work with “Foregiveness”, by Susan Werner, on her The Gospel Truth CD.

BornAgain GrandKids

Your grandfather wants to apologize
not just for voting for Donald Trump,
but also for praying he would continue in Presidential Office
with YHWH’s fertile blessings
of sacred ChristCentered Hearts and Minds,
economic and political leadership of divine Retributive Judgment.

Honey,
I think you’re about to lose them
with this punishing narrative.
Why don’t you just tell them he’s sorry
for loving Donald’s Mutual-Assured Destruction,
Lose ecologically now to Lose again economically later
verging off toward
Oops! I guess I blew-up and out the grandkids
without future healthy
cooperative
multiculturing generations
of most any species.

Most any, yes…
but human nature-spirits have already received
redundant fire and water and hurricane warnings,
Prophecies of Awesomely Awful Climate Pathologies
to come in time for our grandkids,
and their probably not bothering with any kids,
and then possibly a faithful remnant
of their potential grandkids,
hopefully more Win-Win acclimated.

So I need to let them know
this was a fault shared by a large vocal USA minority
of supremacist
patriarchal
monotheistic fundamentalists
with retributive justice is JealousGod on their fixated minds
building toward revolutionary
HellFire and Brimstone eruptions
of global ecopolitical conflagrations
and species-generalized holocaust.

Something like that,
yes dear.
Try to tell them we’re sorry
about the Trump thing
without also scaring off their grand-kids
and possibly their Win-Win cooperative grandkids,
more polypathically ecopolitical
and into ReStorative Healing Justice as Grace,
Matriotic Earth Peace,
CoMessianic Judeo-Christian Communion
of Nature-Spirit EarthWonder
and DeMilitarizing Awe,
Bodhisattva PolyCultural Outcome Health and Safety Planners
and Advocates
and Warriors for Global Peace ReStorations,
more integrated ZeroSoul binomial Economic Health
as political EarthTribe ecological wealth optimization,
and other Sacred MotherEarth Ego/Eco CQI Outcomes,
bilaterally Bayesian trend
(0)Sum
Win-Win ReGenerative Outcomes.

Yeah,
but wouldn’t want to scare off the fundamentalist
anti-intellectual great-great-great grandsons,
and further repressed
suppressed
depressed granddaughters,
anti-democratic
anti-egalitarian
anti-humane-divine nondualism,
anti-multicultural
dualLeft-darkRight
totalitarian bad-faith pathological remains
of a once great society.

By then
we’ll have this sacred species as EarthTribe Future investments down
and up to mystical-mythical-ecological confusions,
chaos and complexity Confucians,
or maybe PostMillennial Taoists
of and for ReStorative Justice
and Global Green EarthTribe Peace,
through mutually assured health and safety
timeless and eternal love,
which is seldom discovered
or delivered,
evolved
or much less invited
or even sustainably revolutionary
at the end
of a Lose-Lose (0)Sum gun.

Not to mention the unlikely prospects
of restoring humane-divine love
through an entire global jihad
or HolyWar
or JustWar retributive punishment theory
for Fallen Natures
of competing Infidels.

Honey,
you’re scaring the grandkids again,
and shrinking the great great great grandkids
beyond restorative dimensions of ecojustice
and peaceful dreams.

Sorry love.
OK, kids,
bedtime begins now.
Time to put on your sackcloth and ashes,
and please wait until morning
to report all Revelationary Nightmares,
dualdark evil-live horses,
deductively dominant cosmological disinvestments
away from good-faith truth and trust-telling,
watering the anti-gospel weeds
and not watering to bloom polyphonic flowers
singing full-octave colors
of Grace greets Karma.

Speaking of Karma…

And lack of grateful Grace…

I wonder how the healing service is going
over at the King James Bible Church
for all those Donald Trump voters.

Redeeming Days and Nights

When each day begins
and each evening ends
knowing Earth is within our redemption intent,
our commitment to Sacred Earth’s restoring Grace
within ourselves,
within our families,
within our communities,
within our humane-divine
nature-spirited species,
within our multi-species relationships,
within Earth,
upon Earth,
around Earth,
through Earths emerging sacred climates
cosmology
theology
ethology,

Then those economic and political
and personal and sexual
and relational and intimate
and vulnerable co-redemptive intended activities and investments,
evolve co-empathic awarenesses,
grow moments of bilateral Grace consciousness
transpire to transubstantiate
occurring and re-occurring event patterns
and rhythm landscapes within
and climates without,
in-between these dawn and dusk sacred wonder events.

To do less,
to invest less than everything,
is to risk Win-Lose harm to oneself,
and to one’s sacred democratic cooperative trust
in truths restoring justice
over lies and errors disintegrating relationship,

To cooperate nondually more, so less dualistically interpreted divisions,
and dipolar, so less bipolar competitions,
and appositional, so less oppositional assumptions
between God’s HolySpirit
and MatrioticEarth’s Holonic Nature.

Judeo-Christian Creation Stories
are invitations toward restoration
of primal NatureSpirit Relationship;
not judgment against the too-secular, fallen, and unredeemed.

When our teachers teach other-phobia,
then we are listening and following
and too often voting for
false fake-evangelical prophets
of God as a Wanna-Be Totalitarian Fascist,
a Hater of Evil destining HellFire Futures
more than a MultiCultural Healer
toward Love-Lives Eternal.

We identify fake-patriotism
by discerning divine-humane rights
and wrongs
of monotheistic triumphalism,
rather than Gospel integrity
of profound Love
for Sacred Earth.

When each day begins
and each evening dissolves into
Sacred Earth’s restoring Grace
within ourselves,
within our families,
within our communities,

Then those economic and political
and personal and sexual
and relational and intimate
and vulnerable activities and investments,
transpire to transubstantiate.

Voting Booth Conversation

My African-American
young adolescent daughter,
since she was age five
needing a therapeutic home and family,
with Oppositional Disorder
and deviantly diverse neural-cognitive communication patterns,
would have voted for Donald Trump if she could.

In large part,
I suspect and fear,
because she is obsessively attracted
to what and whom she knows is bad for her.

Bad medicine.
Toxic sights and sounds and feelings.
Poisons for all sensory receptors,
Mutually oppositional reiterative disorder
perpetually trading barbs of blame and shame,
games she so loves to hate to play,
with tendencies toward bipolar disarray.

Why does she seem to prefer older
straight
blond boys?
Probably because she identifies herself as a younger
brown-skinned
curly-headed
(in several ways and means)
princess-diva-girl.

Anyway,
she helped me vote for our town’s Mayor,
and School Board,
and Propositions about borrowing money
to pay it back later
out of her real-estate and business tax investments.

What she thought would be more interesting investments
for her future,
rather than bridges,
and firetrucks,
and improved highways,
she thought more gardens would be nicer,
and more nutritional in the long run.

As for Mayor,
she told me to vote for “Donald.”

Well, honey,
bad news.
None of these candidates is a Donald.

I didn’t say Donald
I said vote for Dora.
(Did I mention her speech therapy,
and lack thereof?)

(Did I mention I’m deaf as a post
and old enough to be her Great Gay Grandfather?)
Honey,
I don’t think writing in “Dora”
would be a good idea
because she’s not one of the choices here.

Well,
just don’t vote for Donald Trump again.

Never mind about the “again,”
as if I ever had,
or would,
But,
what came between you and your love for Donald?

He is against my mental health
and my mental health right
to live in a good community
without fear of automatic
or even not-automatic
gunfire.

You’ve been reading my blog again
haven’t you?

No!
Why would I read anyone
not smart enough to write in Dora for Mayor?

Transparency of Light

Ivana and Ivanka
and other daughters with mothers
midst matriarchal families with U.S. herstories
might be troubled
by the Trump Administration’s corrupt substitution–
supremacy of White
when both sacred and sexual life is so clearly all about
purest transparency of Light.

When this transparent Light
fills political backrooms
and personal bedrooms,
all Earth remains a Sacred Tragic/Comedy Stage;
takes on a more intimately personal
and yet also a greater economic and political
CoPresence of vulnerable Light.

What do we practice,
practice,
practice
making greater
and more naturally-spiritually extended love
in our bedrooms
and our backrooms?

What have we practiced,
practiced,
practiced
making even more supremacy of fear-mongering White
heterosexual males only on top always
raping and pillaging lives
of mindless patriarchal complacency?

About Win-Lose dualistic interpretations of White is Good
and Black is NotWhite is Bad
sacred scripture
in White-dominant
segregated
mistrusting bad-faith communities,

Yet Win-Win transparency of cooperative Light
is so obviously YHWH’s wondrously divine

Opera of His/HerStoric CoOperations.

Amend the Second Amendment

I propose amending
the U.S. Second Amendment.

The right to own and transport and fire arms
shall be constrained
to include only those who demonstrate sufficient mental health
to have no desire to own and transport and fire ballistic arms,
because they are bad for Earth’s environment,
and not so great for assured mutual health and safety.

Hunters
with sufficient mental health
prefer bows and arrows
and fishing poles,
and possibly javelins,
or maybe even boomerangs.

Healing Sciences and Sacred Arts

The Golden Rule,
like Permaculture Design,
teaches we all deserve
the restorative grace we need,
whether victim or predator of innocence
as we can each empathize
with those harmed
and with egocentric predators;
both written across our own
therapeutic live
and pathology of evil
potentiating hearts.

Cosmology
dwells within sacred ecological wisdom.
Experience of our internal-external relationships Universe
where forms of together Here
grace functions of therapeutic Now,
filling each loving and lovely heart and mind
and body with ethical sensory capacities
to restoratively engage both our secular Left deductive
and SacredRight inductive mind
and hearts with cooperative bicameral consciousness
of dissonance within this Universe of conscious confluence.

Religious history
invites us to release
fake-evangelical fundamentals
choosing monoculturing rather than polyculturing goals
among available anthro-centric dualistic choices
not benignly written evenly across our own Left-Right sacred health
optimization of internal-external ecopolitics
through cooperative co-redemptive development
of God’s egalitarian Grace,
of restorative internal justice as also ecosystemic peace
for and within all SacredEarth.

Universal Beauty and Truth and Trust
live within spectral senses.
Ugly and Deceit and Hate
turn nonsenses toward anti-senses
of each sacred ecological beholder.

What science separates to investigate,
solidarity of art with integrating artist,
Creation with Creator and ReCreators,
restores balancing nondual integrity together,
co-arising deeper and wider emergence

Beauty balancing Earth’s sacred interdependent morality
with LeftBrain Truths and Trusts
of health as Win-Win designed
and planned
and cooperatively implemented creolization
of feeling and thought and language,
and pathology of suboptimizing Win-lose,
and anti-health as predative colonizing Lose-Lose,
scientifically accessible
for further exploration
of creolizing polypathic artistic solidarity
with interdependent ethics gracing personal-political aesthetics
of humane-divine Universals,
Zero-Sum
Win-Win
co-arising
primal relationship
of scientific integrity
with further aesthetic Beauty potential

Double-binding charm,
elegance of solidarity
as unitive balance
without settling for static uniformity
of thought
and feeling
and culture
and language.

Our Polycultural Golden Rule,
like Permaculture Design
and Restorative Arts and Sciences
teach us we all deserve
the co-arising Grace we need.

Blessed Peacemakers

They fell on their knees
with great sorrow
for rejecting
despising our Savior’s Intent

To restore Judaism
with wonder
regenerating

for Earth’s Great Intent

To restore Eden’s garden

reweaving gracious
spacetime for all Earth.
Repenting of more red meat sacrifice,

Therapeutic Creation Stories

A lovely outcome for our recreational journey,
or Way
or Truths,
or LoveLives,
whichever you prefer to pick out
from among this graced array,
tells a multi-generational creation story
of cosmic sacred ecology
and Earth’s evolution revolutions,
drawing on and with
scientific deductive knowledge
both sacred ecology relevant
and issue moving
and sometimes tissue-grabbing
for covering tragic anti-creation nightmares
bringing saltwater tears of healing
for hungry eyes and ears
to avoid further angers and dualdark fears.

We emerge an intensely spiraling creation story
in polyphonic color
evoking awe and wonder,
fear-mongering pathologies
and yet also joy
for redistributing longing and belonging
and restoring responsibility
for divinely humane Therapeutic Stories.

This Universal Creation Story
is a dramatic tragic-comedy,
an opera of operations
and cooperations.

Throughout billions of years
of evolution,
with five prior periods of EarthBound revolutionary extinctions,
Yang-SunGod triumph
and Yin-MotherEarth disaster
have remained a wu-wei narrow-way
mid-way hairsbreadth and depth away
from restoring justice and peace
with each Sacred Ecological Other.

Yang violence technologies
and Yin re-creative arts
remain climatically pervasive.

Restoring capacities of YangSpace
with YinTime
to organize and re-organize ourselves
is sacredly and secularly remarkable–
from information of first atoms
through exformation of emergent sacred double-binding loves
of Universal ReGeneration.

We become part of our Therapeutic Creation Stories
to recognize energy released
in the alpha-beginning
finally,
in sacred divine humans
both CoMessianic Yin and Bodhisattva Yang,
become LeftBrain capable
and RightBrain reflective on
exploring our journey across Time
as God of Synergetic CoArising Change.

Fundamentals of Yin’s hydrogen flow
and radicals of Yang’s oxygen radiance
have become a vibrant health-restoring
Sacred MotherEarth,
with EarthTribes capable
of restoring how this has happened
and to imagine a health-sustaining future
of GreenPeace as ReStorative Ego/EcoJustice.

Reawakening,
reborning
redeeming
regenerating
into our prime relationship
with this Sacred Cosmos
is our medication means
of reengaging ecopolitical life.

This Therapeutic Journey of the Universe
reconnects more deeply and widely and centeredly
with EgoUniverse,
with the Eden and Paradise Creation and MortalFall Stories
of which we are each
a YangLeft against YinRight part,
written across each
secular-sacred heart,
deductive-inductive mind
Left-Right restorative cotherapists.

In ReStorative PermaCulturing Design
we appreciate beginning with needs
for sustaining human witness, agency
within this restorative,
co-redemptive gift-economy
nutritional nurturing planet.

This re-integrating sacred-secular creation story
of AlphaOriginal Intent
and subsequent health care development
of universally restorative design
of Earth,
and of holy-holonic humans
could inspire 2020 reweaving vision
for this time of emergent climates
of revolutionary extinction.

This Creation Story
gifts us with a sensory-neural Commons,
an evolutionary heritage
of and for restorative healing
and shared healthy polygenetic lineages,
both patriarchal and matriarchal,
both Earth-patriotic secular
and matriotic Sacred-PolyPathic Wombing.

Renewed understanding
of the health regenerative kinship
we share with all forms of living Creations,
with all life forms and co-relational functions,
establishes radical foundational fundamentals
for rediscovering our Common Root Systemic past
sustaining our ego/eco-systemic Future Creation Story.

Inspired by scientific reviews
of nested cellular interdependence–
yin-galaxies
with yang-stars,
planets
with ecosystemic restorative climates
thirsty for ecojustice as GreenPeace–
we ecopolitically sense
how personally we are each woven into
this holonic fabric of Universal Journey.

We are each a potential WinWin part
of this ongoing timeless Wu-Wei
between Yang’s ReTributive Strengths through deduction
and Yin’s ReStorative Healing
through sacred double-bound systemic bilateral induction.

From this Creation/Desecration Story
we sense our current degenerative pathologies,
habits against All Sacred EarthTribes of Life,
against our own multigenerational futures,
reiterative injustices not sustainable
in journeys of and for Therapeutic Creation Stories.

In this Revolutionary Extinction framework
the retributive damage human nature is causing
is criminally immense,
genocide of EarthTribe’s ReCreation Journey,
cataclysmic violent revolution
against Common GreenPeace Senses.

We recognize sacred ecological,
cooperative economic,
and restorative social change
as not only legally necessary
to protect multigenerational democracy-empowering Constitutions,
but ethically and morally and aesthetically
and affectively and effectively and infectively
necessary for healing ourselves.

This requires expanding our restorative justice frame
and broadening our permacultural worldview
for health restorative projects
ecopolitical health-wealth optimizing plans.

We are already in this Therapeutic Creation Story,
doing this
as we recreate
these Permaculture Design and Restorative Justice foundations
for Sacred MotherEarth’s reforesting of healthy purpose,
sacred ego/eco-justice futures.
