What have we learned?
What is our big 2020 revision takeaway
from this win/lose
zero-sum failure
To transparently cooperate
for our most inclusive win/win health
and long-term safety,
economic
and political
and social
and physical
and mental health
resilience?
From my own observation,
probably colored
multihued and complexly patterned
by Integral Permaculture Design,
And Community Mediation
for restorative peace resolutions
in perennial win/lose retributive conflict situations,
clashes between conservative LeftBrain dominant
and liberal RightBrain interdependent cultures.
Here, on our cooperatively co-invested home planet,
we could choose to return to indigenous wisdom,
to include health and safety of our trees,
our neighbors,
rivers,
our soil
our water supply,
our green renewable energy resources,
our fresh and clean river valleyed breezes,
our plants,
our domestic animals,
our wild animal cousins
our sacred EarthMothers.
We do better when our healthy safe priorities
remain broadly contextualized,
less LeftBrain boundaried,
broadening our ecosystemic spatial identities
and deepening our speciated individuation
back through monotheistic history
of this now troubling
post-millennial
StraightWhiteMale privileged
LeftBrain corporately dominant
Anthropocene
Predicting unprecedented ecocide,
genocide,
rabid polarization,
economic divestment
and overwhelming political mistrust
During which no healthy democracy
could resiliently endure
as long as our infrastructure,
concrete
steel beamed
bricks and mortar,
budgets and financial planning,
Omit choosing cooperative win/win games
and ecofeminist green co-investment strategies
for health and safety
of our now excluded trees,
plants,
planet
EarthTribe
everyday multiculturing
sacredly resonant
creolization liturgies
of LeftBrain co-intelligence
loving RightBrain co-empowerment.

With healthy names

Many of you live
humbly and heartily
patriotically and industriously
nutritiously and faithfully
in Western and Southern States,
United in this time of shrinking reservoirs,
dying rivers,
hurricaned coastal residents
Displaced by floods,
invasive mold,
voracious rot and rats,
Barren top soil,
failing electrical networks,
drought,
inhumane heat,
decimated forests
Bereft of soil-restoring permaculture,
robust polycultural nutrition systems,
victory community re-engagement gardens.
U.S. long-term resilient infrastructure
to support your children
and grandchildren,
is so threatened by North American climate degeneration
that your own great-grand regeneration,
should they actually be born
and thrive long enough to be successfully educated
about U.S. pre-millennial history,
about rabid post-millennial partisan monotheistic
monoculturalism,
about your own Christian evangelical anthrosupremacism
These great grandchildren
will be shocked and appalled
stressed and depressed
that you substituted “pro-life”
for anti-abortion rabidity,
Mystified that you thought this non-issue
about whom more effectively supports healthy life,
blue liberals or red conservatives?
(when the answer is,
and always was,
both, responding to trauma
humanely
and divinely together)
Why have you set the long-term
EarthTribe stage for shock
and degenerative awe
against our next seven survivor generations?
Why have you spent all your Christian fundamental investments
on aborting universal health care
and not one red cent
on supporting future humane life
On a restored permacultural USA
health and resilience plan
for future survivors
of your ego-atheistic accomplishments,
Ecocide
and massively inhumane genocide,
have already become an ecological
and theological problem
for your dark
and entirely nonRapturous
legacy.
You are currently betting on unredeemed idolatry,
for Hell on Earth
instead of Heaven on rebirthing Earth
Investing divisive vitriol
carried, marketed, transported
by StraightWhiteWesternMale privileged
massive communication systems
Become so loudly
and brightly beamed
into the hearts of Earth’s green co-messiahs
and inter-religious ecofeminist bodhisattvas,
Western and Eastern teachers
and prophets
and mystics,
scientists
and artists
and philosophers
and creation theologians,
green indigenous matriarchs
co-investing in cooperative
nutritional
resilient healthcare economies
and bipartisan
bicameral political empowerment
Not mentioned by your vituperations,
solemn sermons
against sadly exigent
induced abortions,
a mote in liberal eyes
ridiculously and myopically beamed
through dogmatically theoretical
predative voices
red blood chillingly comfortable
with denying current abortion
of sacred EarthTribe.
Where in the Gospels do you find Jesus?
On the side of the Roman industrial militarized complex,
ecocidally against God the EarthCare Creator’s polycultural love
for all sacred lives,
Empowering fertile
cooperative
inter-religious
deep listening
and learning
and holy nature-spirited compassioning lives
Including your own great grandchildren
who may survive
after reluctantly relinquishing
degenerating hope for health sustaining life
in these disuniting States
No longer suitable for peaceful
humane
healthy
resilient life
because, in significant part,
you have taken your pro-life position
against individual mothers’ rights
while mute
or actively disdainful
about protests against patriarchal
Capitalist corporate
white privileged abortion
of a living
organic
sacred MotherEarth
When will your survivors
learn about your polyculturally cooperative reform,
your inter-religious green revival,
your sacred holy nature/spirit
indigenously wise

Of and for all
that becomes divinely humane
co-messianic
co-invested
enlivened permacultural Truth

As LeftBrain bicameral enlightenment

As Yang strong conservation

In lavishly global

of Western and Southern State
climate desecrating

Back in our preverbal day
of healthy regenerating time,
indigenous wisdom
pursued peak experiences
of cooperative pleasure,
deep co-empathic embrace.
Sometimes,
especially when this pleasure was sustained,
euphoric,
ejaculatory
and reverberating in cycles
of deep wombed ecstasy,
procreation happened,
preferably in the spring
when new life is more likely to thrive
with bountiful rain
and lusty bullfrog refrains.
Not until later did monotheistic minds
decontextualize procreative purposes
from pro-ecstatic deep dark intimate meanings
Co-gravitations
dipolar co-arisings
coupling erotic organisms
regenerating co-passionate feelings
evolving love’s healthy ecological intent
to regenerate outward together
before degenerating inward apart.
Love is a pleasant feeling,
and a healthy wealth principle
of recreative compassion,
enlivenment.
A principle of ecological integrity
describes,
without dismembered dogmatic prescriptions,
these regenerative healthy ways
truths
trusts
in which living communions
thrive on this sacred planet
Interdependent networks
of cells
organisms
bioregions
ecosystems
EarthTribal species,
multigenerational families
Find our co-identities
while also compelling MeWe
individual/cultural
health/wealthy relationships
win/win egocentric within
AND with ecohabitat Others
Loving integrity reigns
within humanity’s historical context
of compassionate win/win integral
multicultural
polycultural systems surrounding Earth,
spring raining down upon Earth birth,
breezing across and warmly through,
sunlighting our days
and star studding shared nights.
Finding balance between one’s ego,
our individual cooperative win/win narratives,
and those of compassionate Others
represents EarthTribe’s win/lose wounded heart
of passion
love
unconditioned warm
and wet mesmerized regard
for mutual pleasure
pressure
passion
pulling and pushing
precognitive integrity.
In my curious stories
of win/win love,
when my deepest darkly hidden desire
includes my Other partner
enjoying our neuro-sensory
greatest
healthiest
robust
playful happiness,
some resonant relationship
more contextually co-empathic
profoundly unitarian
and multiculturally universal
than a personal procreative intention
happily emerges.
Right to Left bicameral climaxes
are not so much for a creative future purpose
as swimming in multisensory recreative meaning
here
for passion now,
embodied
for compassioning minds,
neurosystemic wholesome space
for EarthTribal regenerating
eternally connected
timeless time
In storming
maelstrom moments,
new expanding love stories
become
Fundamental flowing nature/spirit
body/mind narratives
re-membering how we have become
healthy alive,
enlivened,
undeadened.
This multisensory neuro-system
of regenerating contagious achievement
in cooperative win/win
ego-health/eco-wealth global networks
is where re-ligioning
re-connecting
re-membering
re-weaving
re-lusting
re-creating freedom
of compassionate verbal
and nonverbal communicating egos
hope to become co-invested curiosity
Resiliently harmonizing
biosystemically resonating

win/lose risk-avoidant
cooperative beauty/pleasure seeking
eco/theo-logical
embodied left

bilaterally resilient mind.

Though within me
I feel red motions,
Burning up Earth’s mountains
and plains,
Far away from Earth’s green-blue ocean,
Still this red blood heart can sing:
We are sailing,
All EarthTribes now,
never health harbor
or safe port have we known.
Our Anthropocene
surfs the ocean we travel regathering
red ironclad Earth
blues our green
boat
home.
Truthfully,
and kinda depressing,
I can’t “manage” anger
any better than fear
and contagious distrust
and nearly constant anxiety
and chronic depression.
In nonviolent communication practice circles,
peace networks,
organic therapeutic systems,
“curiosity” slowly grows ascendent
as “patience” to resist negative feelings
and “impatience” with shameless Others
and not so blameless Selves
fades off into a less used lexicon.
Impatience about expressing anger,
verbally and nonverbally,
evokes LeftBrain dominant
patriarchal
capitalist
corporate management models
for hierarchically oppressive
suppressive
repressive
not really impressive
humorless control.
Curiosity about deep therapeutic win/win potential
for evolving healthcare competencies
comes from a political economy
of co-operative compassion
NOT: intimidating
and frightening scarcity
of control
sufficient to guarantee
a never-ending expansion
of ego-engorgement
through solitary
deductive
reductive
dualistic non-enlightenment
segregating the StraightWhiteMale
corporate well-capitalized WINners
from us unstraight
unwhite
unmale frightening
and yet uppity LOSErs
Apparently LeftBrain incapable
of managing our anger issues,
sometimes frightened by vulnerability
and emotional transparency
yet quietly curious about compassion
and neuro-sensory peak
RightBrain prominent
interdependent
co-empathic
co-invested peak spiritual experiences
biological
ecological
theologically transcendent
Exploding boundaries of autonomous ego-defensiveness
and, possibly, even Either/Or,
LeftBrain dominant Cause
OR RightBrain felt Effect,
StraightWhite monotheistic
Capital-theistic compunctions,
monoculturally supremacist,
macroeconomic win/lose predative,
pathologically angry and frightening
terrorized global apartisan politics.
Remarkably unfazed
by climax-trending ecocide
and degenerative patriarchal
capitalist
LeftBrain narcissistic
snarky
Us v Them genocide
Unconscious about our lack of control
to manage our viral global anger
while spiritually and naturally,
theologically and ecologically,
dying
from lack of win/win curious
green cooperative thrival.
Truthfully,
and kinda depressing,
we can’t “manage” anger
any better than climate fear
and contagious EarthTribal distrust
and nearly constant neuro-systemic anxiety
and chronic LeftBrain dominant
divisive depression.
Distancing communication
seems like an oxymoron,
like dissonant communion.
My ego center speaks communication
while my organic systemic body listens
for communion
Discerning what feels confluent,
resonant with ecological
health is wealth
EarthTribal indigenous experience
AND what feels like aggressive,
possibly predative,
lose/lose DIScommunication
distressed communication
dissonant noise
dissociative distancing,
sometimes ominously silent
dormant
terminal absence
of verbal communication
AND what feels like dualistic
win/lose MIScommunication,
missed cooperative win/win opportunity
too Either my way
Or hit the highway
competitively risky,
too egocentric
too anthrosupremacist
too StraightWhiteMale privileged
too LeftBrain verbally dominant
too lacking co-passion,
too unwoke,
but feeling more like ignorance
than lose/lose malignant
despairing
pathological intent
to DIScommunicate.
My ecosystemic body feels
Trust in win/win active hope,
DIStrust for surviving lose/lose despair,
economic and ecological degeneration,
MIStrust of win/lose monoculturing monopolies
monotheistic
monochromatically anthrosupremacist
Preachers
and teachers
of pure white
bright paternalistic capitalism
as Earth’s only way
truth
life toward healthy salvation.
Trust breeds neuro-systemic integrity.
DIStrust feeds overwhelming feelings
of violently weaponed despair.
MIStrust of win/lose
either/or
LeftBrain dominant thinking
not compliant with ecologically healthy experience
is, on my best feeling days
and peace dreaming nights,
a therapeutic opportunity tool
for responding to health risk trauma.
