Capital Acclimations

Capital means head,
whether healthy or swollen.
That leading toward healthy wealth place
and pace.
Capital is where my head is at today.

Capitalism may be where my competing head has turned
while social and natural eco-capital
could become where our cooperative hearts evolve,
revolve,
resolve,
resound,
rebound,
refound.

Hearts, like minds,
are bicameral,
as embodied arms and legs,
eyes and ears,
and even nostrils,
are bilateral,
even syncretically stereophonic
stretching dance to rhythmic sound.

Capital grows where my EitherOr deductive head works out Win or Lose
and revolves more therapeutically
where my BothAnd inductive heart plays out
and in,
up and down,
diastatic through stasis,
regenerative through degenerate,
love through terror of ego-loss,
to re-ingenerate again.

We can throw our capitalistic arms against each other
yet we all breathe and beat
this same cooperative capital
wu wei,
MidWay
Yang with YinYin
WinWin.

Marching Climate Choreographers

In dancing,
as in 4-dimensional spacetime organic life,
we have two primary functions:

The Yang-strength function bears weight
to remain standing despite gravity,
upright in some often vertically-challenged capacity.

The Yin function is balance
which calls for more concentrated emphasis on flexibility
and appositional symmetry,
bilaterality
and tri-laterality
and moving quad-laterality.

When couples dance
often partners with greater strength
will assume the more Yang empowering role,
while the other partner
will complement their collateral dual destiny
by electing to concentrate more on Yin’s co-nurturing role
of flexibility,
symmetry,
flow of nondual co-arising balance
as a couple.

Those who are premeditatively predestined toward dance
may also co-redemptively choose
to interdependently co-invest,
both vertically against gravity
and horizontally co-gravitating
through ego/eco-systemic flow,
capital enraptured LeftBrain,
yet also full mindbody Elder RightBrain
eco-reinvesting flow
of God’s StrongCreation Stories
as Goddess’s humane-divine ReGenerative Dance.

God’s Zen Voice

Once upon this time
I was listening to the Christian Fathers
retell traditional stories
of God’s election and predestination.

Predestination
is like being born into royalty,
power,
privileges of humane Earth’s regenerative grace.

Election is more democratic.
Selection based on God’s vote for mercy,
apparently,
because one of these stories
is God’s preferential option for the poor,
meaning God’s most merciful election,
selection,
ballot cast on behalf of capitalism’s
loser scum of the Earth.

Now here we have some patriarchal creative tension building
as necessary for every matriarchally well retold story.

Because patriarchal writers
with good and kind hearts
blather on and on about God as advocate for those least wealthy
within our competing social systems,
yet forget to solve this more matriarchal embryonic riddle
of God’s predestination of poverty
in the first place,
so to speak,
of nakedness,
of incapacity,
of vulnerability,
more normal within embryonic new life systems
than in maturely developing self-selecting systems,
evolving baby-mother co-nurturing dependencies
into adult-adult interdependency,
active trusts of cooperativity,
mutual selection and election and preference
for those within our daily and weekly realms
with greater needs
and insufficient resources
to participate in story telling
on their own two self-advocating feet.

PermaCultural story tellers
remind us of God’s apparent creation story preferences
of simple, but not impoverishing, design:
God predestined Earth,
and all Her matriarchal embryonic systems,
to begin with,
and developmentally prefer,
modesty of co-dependent scale.

Earth shall select,
and find good and healthy,
what is cooperatively well-designed
for long recycling life
and regenerated from easily, democratically, accessible materials,
rich in their redundancy
so poor in their individuality,
enriching through mutual solidarity,
impoverishing in our individualism
which is a most immodest stepson
of partriarchal dualism
as re-creatively tensioned with matriarchal nonduality
co-arising predestination of wombed function
and election of and for God’s EarthTribe
of nature-spirit hybrids,
nondual co-arising healthwealth systems.

Goddess said humane-divine lives
shall be simple to maintain,
yet not cooperative maintenance-free.

PermaCulture’s God predestined by selecting
multi-purpose and easily co-adapting co-acclimations,
creolizing and democratizing fertilities
of cooperative design preference;
the opposite of planned revolutionary obsolescence,
and mutually assured LoseLose destruction.

This story of God’s predestination and election
begins with two co-arising centers.
Early tribal fires of narrative memorization
but also with bedtime homes of matriarchal retelling
by those who were less likely to write the Great Patriarch’s
predestined history of individual strengths
and more likely to recall women and their too-often orphaned children
as MotherEarth’s selected
first choice for recreating even more nurturing inclusion,
designs of humane-divine protrusions
nondual co-arising
through impoverished and naked hearts
with regeneratively revolutionary ideas
about Earth’s preferential predestinations
for cooperative matriarchal governance over patriarchal competitions,
for regenerative redundant designs
of nutritional as nurturing solidarity
within each and all of Earth’s co-designing climates
of too wealthy Patriarchal God’s
too-independent, dualistic voice,
self-selecting and predestining
further fires of LeftBrain dominance.

PermaCultural Design
recognizes God/dess’s DualDestiny Voices.
To catch and store, then re-invest, energy
also retells Mother Earth’s
Universal PreDestination of Nutritional Catchment Choice
and CoReinvestment of and for Self/Other Selection,
bilateral Yang/Yin;
just another ecosystemic re-creation story,
where everyone lives happily and healthy-wealthy
ever after regenerative predestination.

Succeeding Days

How old was I
when each succeeding year
each successive year
became each falling year,
each failing year?

How old was I
when each year fell away
as did each month and week and day,
both succeeding less
and failing more
resigned to fade out play?

How old is just right maturity
of days falling off
away?

My calendar begins with clearly given rebirth dates,
succeeds toward organic dusk conclusions
on a day and week and month
within a year not yet quite fully numbered
and yet already fading toward some numeric memory
for those who remain succeeding
more than failing
through days and nights of fears
and faith
our wins outweigh these latticed losses.

A Declaration of Interdependence for Our Times

teapeasea2014's avatarSalamander's World

Months ago, I put up my last post, on the topic What are we for? In the interim, there have been ample new opportunities to find yet more things to be against. Attacks on access to healthcare. Arrests and deportations of immigrants. Military engagements abroad of questionable value and wisdom. Dramatic reversals of the country’s longstanding commitment to provide for a cleaner and healthier environment. Serious suspicions that the electoral process itself was materially influenced by foreign agents working in concert with people closely connected to Mr. Trump. In an epoch when the shallowness of the consensus around common values has become evident and when there is no longer broadly shared understanding about what may be taken as true, it is no surprise that currents of fear, outrage and despair are running strong. The good news is that  many citizens have discovered that a viable and healthy democracy depends on…

Last Climate of Night

Lyrics to Auld Lang Syne
Jim Scott, inspired
Gerald Dillenbeck, deranged

May all who venture forth today
be welcome ‘ere we go,
And those who risk a gesture kind
reap all that we would sow.

For love will reach across this time
disarming anger here.
Let all misunderstanding rest
these last hours of our fear.

May all find shelter in our warmth
of new friends as with old,
Where errors past may be forgiv’n,
bright futures swell foretold.

Beyond these embers dying here
to raise a flame anew
Unbound by clock and climate fear,
our song rings clear and true.

Let tales of loss and victory
inspire us all again
And may bold resolve find support
of healthy climate friends.

Surrender final judgments here
so small in vast pretext.
Thus might these last nights of our fear
be first lights of what’s next.

Social and AntiSocial Capital

Hybrids,
like a good creole stew,
are amazingly viral cooperators,
competitively so,
reacclimating tastes toward richer anticipations.

We have all heard of social capital
and natural capital,
of social democrats as antisocial plutocrats
and cooperatively-owned capitalist corporations,
including bipolar republics, perhaps.

These are all forms of regeneratively healthy intent
to further cooperatively nurturing ecopolitics,
as contrasted to degenerative antisocial trends
toward further climate and landscape reactionary pathologies,
alien-fear and patriotic anger incensed,
flavored,
darkly nurtured.

For example,
early Christians believed the death and resurrection of their loving Messiah
reincarnated within their own cooperative nurturing hybrid communities
would regeneratively inoculate them
from a jealous YHWH’s apocalyptic
post-millennial
revolutionary climate changing war
against those who killed His divine-humane hybrid.

Now, within Christian cultures some two millennia later,
saying one does not believe in following Jesus
has become equivalent to not believing in the superior power of love
over degeneration.

Such climate health denier claims have become both internally contradictory,
oxymoronic,
and self-defeating,
self-denying,
Earth-denying in a larger capital cooperative sense
of climate change as internal/external cooperative health emergence.

For example,
you might have heard:
I don’t believe that cooperative WinWin ecopolitics
could ever become more resonant and robust
than continuing WinLose militaristic capitalism.

And yet,
whether you have faith in cooperative regeneration
as more robust than competitive degeneration
does not change the evidence of evolving history,
beginning at Empty
and climate developing toward fully Interdependent,
diastatic revolutions,
flowers and their next-regenerative seeds,
their creolizing-democratizing potential,
within Earth’s moist humus,
as revolutionary eco-messianic events,
evidence of God’s radically accessible love
overpowering dehumanizing competitive de-capitating
God-killing wrath
about our own mortality,
and the daily humiliations of ego competitions largely not conclusively won,
growing mistrusts,
weeds,
dying thorns among redolent roses.

Climate change
is about both climatic degenerative trends
and climate regenerative nurturing possibilities
for politically cooperative global and individual peace
with ecojustice,
economically ecological.

Yes,
climate change is about apocalypse
and critical-crisis revolutions
within ecopolitical patriarchal
and political-economic domestic matriarchal
harmonious choices and ballots of reiterative discernment
over dis-harmonious debates and competing ballistics.

But,
saying we do not believe in this revolutionary end
to LeftBrain competitive EitherWin/OrLose dominance
is oxymoronic.
LeftBrain dominance is the capacity and odds and ends of language to speak active trust,
to admit ambivalent mistrust,
to declare unredemptively active distrusts.

LeftBrain Might-Makes-Right-And-Bright v WrongWaste
doesn’t care if you believe in its dominating history,
every time you continue feeding yourself
and your children
with your dominant right hand
your LeftBrain actions speak
your oxymoronic confusion of hybrid ecopolitical praxis.

It is as if your right hand
is not aware of what your less socially nurtured left hand
is not doing
as equivalently
as nutritiously
as capital-invested
powerfully.

Eschatology and revolutions
millennialism and global and even personal climate crises
are all about social-natural cooperative nurturing re-investment,
extending out,
democratizing,
creolizing,
healthing our Golden Capitalist MindBody Rule,
to love YHWH-Tao and MotherEarth as oneself
is to cooperatively nurture capital investments
in doing to and with Earth’s matriarchal womb
as we would have all other interdependent capital life-forms
and forces
and flows
and ecosystemic bilateral hybrid functions
bow namaste with regenerator us.

Patriarch Yang-Sun
and Matriarch Earth-Yin
co-evolved their cooperative nurturing Golden Rule,
EcoSystemic Harmonics,
long before divining humans came along
to evolve our LeftBrain capital-dominant sacred scriptures
speaking re-creation experiences oft-retold, then written,
of climate pathological degenerations
and revolutionary climate ecotherapeutic regenerators,
diastatic flowers co-mentoring post-revolutionary creolization,
democratization,
sanctification,
social nurturing capital re-investments.

Paradise ReForested

Seeds, like mentors, are germinators.
Generation wears two faces,
as does development,
positive and negative,
regeneration and degeneration.

Some seeds are healthier than others.
Some are positively deviant, robust,
and others are negatively deviant, flawed,
unbalanced,
missing an exegetical median mark,
some would see as sin,
which can be forgiven within oneself
by learning to forgive others
for our collective negative deviant seeds.

Bill Mollison exhorts us to a global therapeutic project:
Reforesting the Earth
is one of the few tasks
left to us
to express our humanity.

This feels true and right and good,
hopeful and prophetic and WinWin,
and yet mysterious and incongruous.
It raises questions,
like a good parable,
and wisdom literature in general.

I can think of a time within nation-state histories
and even extended family,
tribal development stories,
when some wise patriarch might have said:
Deforesting this place
is one of the few tasks
left to us
to optimize our divine-humane potential.

Did we really have to deforest
to develop a FiveStar FirstWorld Class
of healthy humane curiosity and deep ecological wealthy learning
to reforest this Earth
to re-express, and perhaps forgive ourselves,
for our own LeftBrain dominant historic development?

And, whether so or no,
was Original Forest logos
also Original Sin mythos?
Risk and opportunity,
degeneration and regeneration,
germinating potentials within each of Earth’s soils
and nondual mind-bodies
co-arising LeftYang-RightYin WinWin souls.

I wonder what Mollison means
by “one of the few” assignments.
And whom or what he believes left these therapeutic tasks
for our healthy-wealth fulfillment.

I like to think and feel perhaps few,
in a prime-relational sense,
is two;
that calculating deforesting harvest
is a reverse hierarchical face
of harmonizing reforestation,
a resonant full-octave restoration
of Paradise Lost
through LeftBrain dominance
over RightFlow relational resonance,

Of deductive deforesting as numerator
with inductive bilateral reforestation as re-denominator,
differential dialectal fractal-fractions
Either/Or
Both/And
sung and danced through matriarchal herstories
of MotherEarth with consort Father Son,
dominant radiant Yes of Light
with reforesting harmonics
of dualdark EarthDay reforesting dawn
greeting EarthNight climate dusk.

Forests of seeds, like therapeutic acclimators, are germinators,
embryonic terminators
trending toward already forgiven regenerators.

EarthDay by Day

Day by day
within each passing shadow,
surging strength
to grow from fear through time.

Night by night
without full hope of living,
doubt pervades
my troubling mind’s worst fears.

Night by day
and day by night
within each dwelling passion,
faith I find
to live despite dark nights.

Day by night
and night by day
we dream co-dwelling passions,
loves as lives
to die apart in light,
to fly as part of bright.
