Spirals That ReConnect

Earth health-love resonance
is bird song
contrasted to dissonance
of non-ecologos
decaying cars
and non-theomythic truck technologies
of terror
and mismanaged motorcycles
flowing incessantly by.

Optimal resonance lives inside an eco-forested bird sanctuary
before and after a WestWind storming toward East
contrasted to challenged resonance
of living every WinLose day
next to a bird-nested tree
and a State HighWay.

These influence our polycultural health-love outcome potential
hearing Either-Or deductive contrast
as Left-oppositional and Right-appositional,
bipolar egocentric and dipolar eco-harmonic,
and see Both-And induced comparisons
polypathic wonder of ego-health potential
with polyphonic awe for eco-wealth integrity,

And not so monoculturing mundane much
as simply and always Win-Lose fundamentalism,
Either deductively successful
Or reductively impossible;
anti-inductive mistrust.

Future Search of a newborn child,
Both-And Elder RightBrained,
regardless of species
or multicultural seasoning,
is boundaried by DNA-RNA’s historical
holonic iconic meaning
folding-unfolding fractals
in emerging-submerging bilateral Time.

In this same way,
Future Search of post-millennial Real 4Dimensional Time
regeneration
is double-boundaried
by WinWin PositivEnergy
historical and ecological confluent memories
and LoseLose NegativEntropic
dissonant
absence of Future WinWin ReSearchers,
whistling birdsong favorites
after climatic WesternDominant storms.

BeLoved Resonant
mythic mystery
lies within wu-wei cusps
Tipping Points of Left-nature with Right-spirit,
secular experience of and for sacred iconic memory,
ecologos and theomythos
reweaving
reconnecting Left with Right,
Yang with Yin,
EgoPatriarchs in healthy love with WiseElder EcoMatriarchs
inside as outside,
within as without,
below as above
Zero Health-Articulating Zones

What’s Next?

What grows healthy next
for PositivEnergy Democracy,
dearest,
in your humble
not so LeftBrain dominant
NegativEnergy Plutocracy
opinion?

EcoSchools for secularLeft-sacredRight education
teaching and listening
to non-violent communication
restoring healthy climates
empowering slow-grow transportation
systems going from WinLose
toward WinWin.

That sounds too actively ego/eco-conscious discerning
perennial organic design
than I’ve known cooperatively-owned action,
implementation,
installment,
incarnation
then cumulative evaluation
and re-seeding co-investments
in further dawning spring
of health re-incarnations.

We’ll love more closely EcoVillaged communities
creating co-housing neighborhood spaces
seasonally healthing ZeroZones
for redundant WinWin organic implementations,
experimental installations,
cooperative resonant systemization,
resilient creolization.

At risk
of appearing too LeftBrain deductively ordering
and monoculturally neat and trimmed,
precisely demanding and tediously grim
and retributively commanding,
I do like you better flexibly complex
yet restoringly accessible
more than merely chaotically comprehensive.

And I appreciate
your post-millennial
smart 2020 ReVisioning Revolution
for Left-Right CoTherapeutic Justice
and global Work That ReConnects Peace,
my romantic honey pot.

More of a ZeroZone spot
really,
dear,
just a bit more
toward my YinSquared and Cubed
Centering Network.

Right with Left there?
Inside yourWinWin echoing

Honey spot
needs to stop talking now
and I’m actively hoping you will talk less
and mentor more cooperatively
as swell
Western WinLose Work
and Eastern WinWin Play that Reconnects
Yang Ego-health
against pathology
and for Eco-wealth

What’s next

Dear Mr. President

Dear Mr. President,

Today,
at my Green STEAM EcoSchool–
Which Mother Gaia asked me to mention
was supported by the Environmental Protection Agency
until plundered into
your Environment Predation Agency,
an offense against health defense.

Anyway,
back to what I hoped we might talk about,
We learned about designing multicultural nurturing guilds
composed of polyculturing plants
like cooperative flowering eastern pollinators
and chickory deep soil/soul southern enrichers,
and yummy nutritional western food producers,
and north wind resilient double-boundary networks.

And how building cooperative multicultural guilds,
and feeding them
with WinWin organic compost,
democratically and resonantly yields
long-term resilient
economic and political
and polycultural
nutritional optimization outcomes.

And how building boundaries
and walls between these polypathic
potentially free WinWin cooperators
leads to emerging WinLose climate competitors
building even larger scale
ever more supremacist monoculturing wars
and mutually unbalanced
and devastating
LoseLose climate pathology terror.

That was about it
for today
as I recall.

So,
what did you learn outside today
listening to your EcoSchool root system mentors
and interns
and WiseElder matriarchal teachers?

If Mother Yin-Gaia spoke to me,
just a Green kid,
I’m sure She would speak with you.

Just another Green kid
listening to your Red,

Dear New with Old England

Dear Local Boards of EcoSchool Education,
Departments of Environmentally Protected Walkable Transportation,
Cooperatively Maintaining Public-Private Works
and STEAM Play
and WinWin GreenGames,
Hysterical Historical Associations,
Social Work Departments of Climate Restorative Therapy,
and Public Health-Wealth Departments:

Did you leave anyone out dear?

Just the usual lower non-elite 10 to 50 percent
still graduating from WinLose counter-evolutionary
Right Might Fights
secularized deductive-only school.

You mean LeftBrain
Business As Ego Terrifying schools?

I’m not sure, really.
I never fully experienced
an urban capital-infested
RightWing militarizing
WinLose patriarchal
anti-WinWin matriarchal
BadFaith school.

Because you choose to see YangHere
with YinNow,
within breathed out
as manna ingested
co-invested eco-in.

Bread womb of life inside memories
as breath of matriotic love
outside images.

Anyway,
please continue with your Letter to English Editors
of Town Bulletins, dear.
Although why you need to write everything outloud
in strings of regenerative ecologic
while inside singing and dancing in matriotic octaves
is so much spiral dynamics transporting
and more fun,
I cannot polyphonically imagine.

OK, continuing–
Most of our composting neighborhoods
arose before oil and gas burners
mechanized transportation
for both domestic song and dance tranquility
and international militarized terror.

For this epic creolizing-colonizing reason,
we could enjoy a deeper learning opera network,
polypathically useful operations
for polyculturing healthy highways
and byways.

For economic co-invested reasons
we could choose more walkable
and bike-enabling neighborhoods,
more child and extended family friendly.

We could affordably choose
some narrower edible chestnut tree-lined lanes,
intersecting frequently
in community cooperative gardening squares
and WinWin organic Green triangles
and peace restorative pentagons

Rather than continuing to choose
last gasps
of a more drive-thru-able
stinky mechanical WinLose devolving city.

For political and social communication reasons,
we might better cooperatively own and manage
convenient and safer,
better nurtured pedestrian
street transporters
with warmer and cooler
and more therapeutic communicating destinations
nearby.

For good faith reasons
we could choose natural neighborhood homeo-nonpathological drugstores,
more outdoor ecoschools
and after-school Green STEM projects
and Green STEAM repurposing arts
and reforesting sciences,
more organic and locally-grown grocery stores
and nutritionally walkable transporting ecosystems.

For good health reasons
we could cooperatively choose
to place,
adjacent to bad breath congesting highways
leading out to bioregionally giant
polluted feeder interstates,
cooperative ecoschool
and goodfaith community gardening grids
of humane-breathable streets
for solar electric streetcars,
bikeways,
ample horse-powered bark and repurposed chip,
stone and hand-made brick ways
to make our healthy peddled and walked
therapeutic rounds.

We could choose transport and communication channels
flowering with urban reforesting projects and policies
and planting/harvesting co-investment procedures
for eco-cooperative living,
smart deep growing therapeutic residents
with repurposing life vocations
in local downtown ZeroZone permaculturing centers,
eco-centric port authorities
for feeding healthy mouths
like our Sacred Thames River
flowing outstream
to Atlantic
and Pacific,
Indian and Northern

WiseElder surfing Seas,
seasons New Moon drenched in dualdark Soul
and FullMoon pulled toward
climate ecotherapies.

We could choose
to guard against merely drive-thruable cities
against double-binding future-past
eco-walking climate ego-change
for reducing waste fueled overconsumption.

We need not always choose
individual ownership of mechanized technologies
over cooperatively enabling
diverse and re-acclimating resilient respiratory response
to future indoor-outdoor climate pathologies.

We could choose to not suck in
further competitive WinLose public-private investments
for monoculturing solutions
far short of polycultural deep sacred-secular learning
resonant resident resolutions.

We could choose
co-arising secular Left and sacred Right
ecological-theological healthy initiatives
to reforest
New and Old England’s most resonant
historical resilience.

Too many words, dear.

How many
too many?

Go for ZeroZone eruption
into Wondrous Beauty
and Secular Awe.

I was.
I did.
I am.

Well then,
great and beautiful transition done, honey.
Now who are we?
And where are we cooperatively becoming?

You are insatiable.

Only with co-arising you,
dearest.

Family Jazz Farmers

I am reading Wendell Berry stories
again,
still,
today.

And notice
over these past several weeks
he unfolds two bipolar themes.

Berry is,
was,
a cooperative Southern neighborhood farmer
of organic hospitality.
His protagonists grow on multigenerational farms
as Berry grows into writing while farming,
thereby farming readers
co-investing in cooperative
organic
ego-feeding
ecosystems.

But Berry’s NegativEnergy tension
emerges against nationalistic
anti-productive family
automated military ballistics
reaping death harvests.

All forms of death
are terror
in and outside Berry’s local farm community,
Yet death’s most absurd forms
are international and civil wars,
tariff warts and tumors
against short-handed family farmers.

As any farmer
worth her compost
knows,
Everyone losing opportunity for organic life
risks isolating
marginalizing
competing
de-commodifying death.

Similarly,
I hear an NPR commentator
this evening
remind us
Everyone loses empowering trade
in declaring wars.

Whether firing retributive ballistics
or tariffs
or both,
bleeding death and threat thereof
are the opposite of cooperatively farming
and feeding health
together.

Wars are LoseLose Games
unto violent absurdity
while cooperative farming,
planting and harvesting,
culling and replanting,
seed sharing and mutual cooperative composting,
multigenerationally,
is WinWin traditional healthy economics
and family politics,
secular democratic trust
and sacred faith
in PositivEnergy ZeroZone communities.

Similarly,
I hear another NPR commentator say,
of an iconic Jazz Master,
whose primary instrument
exploring high and low extremities
of piano-fortes:
He performed cooperative jazz
THE Right Way.

This seems to smirch the Master’s reputation.
Music performed THE Right Orthodox Way
is not jazz,
without capital-hoarding over-investments.

Jazz is not ballistically force-fed at people
Music sharing is about cooperative RightBrain planting
and harvesting invitations into resonant life.
Jazz performance
at its organic ensemble creolizing best
is about several right and left farming ways
inviting us to muse with
our right sharing amusing ways.

THE Right Ways
are about competitive performance wars–
who gets the biggest and baddest button
spotlight,
and not at all about jazz forms
of cooperative improvisational farming,

Recomposing stories
about healthy forest
and ocean
and breath
and light major 7th
and dualdark minor diminished
octave sharing.

I was dreaming Wendell Berry poetry
again resonant,
today.

When I Woke Up This Morning

I opened to my internet this morning
to see an icon of a woman
under bannered “News”

And thought it couldn’t be important
or it would be a picture
of a white patriarch.

I opened to my weather web
this mourning,
to behold an icon of a Goddess
knowing we continue Gaia weeping
important fatalities
if only to each other stormy wise.

I opened to my epic romance history
this morning,
to behold all-embracing love
of eco-passion seeking,
mysteriously surrendered,
absorbing beloved fascinations.

Secularized WinLose promises devolving
sacred threatening to decompose
all Nature’s right with left ways,
sacred-eco with saintly-ego.

I woke up this dolphin breathing morning
to know our spiritual breaded Manna
upside down,
inside eco-naturally Out,
as breathing in
toward Earth’s natural nurture.

I woke up this eco-systemic morning
to turn environmental sciences
into wickedly complex magic
cooperatively owning wondrous jazz
improvising rapture.

I woke up this morning
to this eco-political WinWin bargain
liberating from WinLose doldrums
of every day toward nondualistic night.

I woke up to light this morning
this dualistic life
marooned in WinLose devolution
through patriarchal colonization theories
that might makes fight right.

I woke up to dualdark this night
in non-dualistic secular/sacred epic consciousness,
marooned in WinWin delight
matriarchal creolizing RightBrain experiences
eco-nurturing flows
bilaterally WiseElder
EgoLeft with Sacred Eastern Right.

I woke up to a walkable
and bike ride-able
city this morning
nutritionally sufficient transporting
PositivEnergy Democracy CoOperators
investing in healthy soul-soil systems,
with zero zone inventory.

I woke up to foot and pedal
arm and paddle
this morning
investing billions of empowering hours
with goat and llama and horse powered
construction
and transportation
and animal and cart
and bicycle and kayak
maintenance and repair
cooperative co-investments.

Well,
I even woke up this morning
and we were on my mind,
repurposing
recycling cafes and gardens and farms,
extending healthy family
WinWin infrastructural networks.

Resilient
restorative agape ego/eco-systems
weathering colonizing fuel spikes,
confronting patriarchal over-investment climates,
thriving past this GreatYang Recession.

I woke up this morning
to an economic ecological system,
socially
politically
WinWin environmentally resonant.

I got up this morning
on a nurturing transportation system
WinWin walkably linked
with cooperative internal soul investments
supporting land
and sea
and air crisis therapies
invested completely
in long-term ZeroZone resilience.

I walked and talked out this morning
with metaphoric resonance
for ego/eco-consciousness
RightBrain felt,
intuited,
internal/external bilaterally flowing,
epically erupting,
abundantly transporting,
accessible, if matriarchally walkable, health.

I opened to my network this morning
to see a woman icon
under bannered BadNews

And thought it must be important
or it would be another fake news picture
of a white patriarch
speaking into a one-way microphone.

Dreamer Cafe

Dear Franklin St. Four,

We have not met
but, no,
I’m not hoping to take money
or assets
away from you.

Quite the contrary.
Your rental building,
with four residential second and third floor units
above a first floor store front
is for sale–
and the seller knows nothing about this communication.

You could buy your building together
for no more
than your current rents–
probably somewhat less.

I’m hoping you will decide to buy your homes together
and repurpose your shared first floor space
for a Cooperative Dreamers Cafe
with child care during the day
and after-EcoSchool interns
for healthy cooperative evening recreation,
skill-sharing,
writing and song and dance,
ecotherapy repair and design and entertainment projects,
permaculturally designed
to share in this
your cooperative ZeroZone CoHousing Cafe.

Why would I care?
What’s in this for me?

I am a retired Permaculture Designer
recently relocated to Norwich
and certified to mentor Green STEM projects.

I’m looking for ways I can help,
especially in your town center area
and especially now that I don’t need to charge fees
for facilitation
of cooperatively-owned health and nutrition integrity projects.

So, if you are interested,
I would recommend
reading Permaculture Opera,
which will tell you far more
than you might truly care to know
about my family and me
and our therapeutic journey into this great transitional day
and cooperative-growing time.

If you buy it
on amazon.com
then my royalty share
will help support this project
should you all four choose
to move cooperatively forward.

But, I can also loan you a copy
or you can read all in it
and far more
for free
at http://www.gdill52.com.

With springtime hope
and resonant regard,

Gerald 0-Liver, PDC, MPA, MDiv

EarthActivist Journals

A pro-active journalist
is like a research-committed teacher
teaching and listening to cooperative research designs
and presentations.

The opposite of the journalist’s deconstruction
of events
is reconstruction through predictive narrative.
Just as the opposite of permaculture’s green activist
regeneration
is pathological degeneration
emerging from past too-monoculturing memory

Back toward too much red-meat butchering
and ballistic slaughter
swimming in pathogens
about health-resilient DNA-RNA solidarity genes
for future regenerative reconstructions.

Recently
the local writer of Polyculture Opera
invited me to his and her place,
I’m still not sure s/he has chosen
Either/Or gender,
for a co-author interview.

But I need to arrive
just before dawn
and not drive in
or even toward
EarthSoul’s healthy address,
if at all possible.

So, I”m riding my bike
and arrive just as pre-dawn light
could reveal river homefront terrain.

There s/he is
atop a barren maple tree,
facing East
across a valley,
rocking back and forth
from north to south
and back again…

S/he calls “Good Morning!”
as if this emerging light
has already made Earth’s best day invitation
convocation
to and for those less grumpy
and feeling old-knees and hips frumpy.

S/he welcomes me up
and so I go
with all my Senior Citizen climbing years
behind me
to rest just below Earth’s swaggering
Operatic sway.

Before I can ask
what s/he is doing
S/he tells me
This is Earth’s centering sit spot
from which s/he greets our vibrant Sun
when clouds do not grey stand
in dark swaying way.

Here s/he waves back
as Earth’s trees thank FatherSun
for waving forth
paid-forward
toward this WuWei Day
West for Ego Win
and East of EcoRooting Win
discerning through and after dualdark night.

Like a Permaculture Opera
opening each morning,
each life,
this ego/eco centric
Western swaying
dusk-fading glory.

My Opera piece will begin
There’s no such health-listening thing
as a non-teachable moment.

A local pro-active journalist
sways like a research-committed teacher
teaching cooperative research design
through re-presentational invitations.

Outdoor Community Cooperatives

Community outdoor innovators
are challenged by premillennial lack
of potlatch cooperative investments
paid-forward
by ZeroZone invested WiseElders,

Limited by Space
for developing multifamily co-housing
with cooperative community organic gardens.

Limited by volunteer outdoor ego-eco therapeutic
Time.

Limited by competitive economic grid
and profile assumptions
for future WinLose evolutionary models
composed of politically monoculturing
patriarchal assumptions,
not so much cooperative outdoor nurturing balance.

Some local governments,
not to Flagstaff any Portland names,
provide cooperative ownership support
by developing STAR restorative web platforms
to profile cooperative PositivEnergy Democracy activities,

Providing co-housing
PotLatch Cafe with Garden grants,

Connecting cooperative incubator
innovators
with relevant guild teams
and PositivEnergy co-investors,
pollinators,
soil and soul enrichers…

Shifting emphasis
from indoor individual households
to neighborhood-based outdoor gardening
and edible landscaping
and therapeutic open-air repair cafe
behavioral change,

Gratitude for mutual-gift WinWin opportunities
to appropriate WuWei scale
for community educational ego-eco balancing
skill-set sharing.

Local and individual Ego-governments
long to bring neighborhood goods
and cooperative services sharing
to outdoor belonging potlatch economies,
organic extending family awareness
with natural spirited potential
like polyculturing birds
sharing nest feathers.

Too few of us already belong
to reuse homes and gardens
where library inventories
are used by EcoSchool perpetual graduates
greatly expanding
and resiliently replicating
other co-housed outdoor universities
for deep learning neighborhood interns,
guilds for growing healthier wealth together
resiliently
polypathically
resonantly
polyphonically.

Too few urban gardens
are surrounded by cooperatively-owned
multifamily
multicultural
polyculturing
nature as PositivEnergy buildings constructed
deconstructed
reconstructed.

Housing and gardening composting together
in close nutritional guild proximity
easily sharing kitchen gadgets,
gardening tools,
food preservation,
transportation,
child and WiseElder cooperative care…

Vertical and Horizontal Cooperative
Outdoor-Indoor Organic Living
incubation libraries
with neighborhood cafe entertainment kitchens
on the ground and garden floor,
Fix-Us dining areas,
afterdark aromatherapy enlightenment,
organic co-invested nutritional enrichment.

Entertainment
by rose-oiled lamplight
creation and destruction mutual story telling
group and gospel singing
and game boards
where extending families face cooperatively together
speaking with and against
each allied other.

Community gardens
with cooperative neighborhood kitchen composting cafes
supported by WinWin entertainment and exercise and dancing and singing parks
and formerly vacant city lots
now linking
underutilized four-season space
with educational nature-spirit
PositivEnergy kitchens
and gardens
more nutritionally linking
neighborhood strawbale and cob pizza and barbeque ovens
feeding and growing
volunteer community cooperative innovators.

Such WinWin alternative incarnations
could polyculturally optimal scale
PositivEnergy network outcomes
upstream and downstream
from HereSpace as also NowTime.

In rather too long summary,
EcoHousing and Organic Gardening Neighborhoods
are cooperatively and peacefully EcoSchool suited
to provide healthier polypathic access
needed for wider co-investment
in private-public sector cooperative incubator
PositivEnergy nurturing
non-violent
restorative justice and peace programs
for outdoor and indoor climates
of resiliently synergetic healthy wealth.
