Family Health Assessment

I have watched my youngest son
while nurses give him baths
using diverse models of health optimization
ranging from PositivEnergy Promotion,
restorative ego-eco
I-Thou therapies,
to lower not too much NegativEnergy concerns
for hygienic technology professional management,
anger and fear commercialized insurance
consumer protection assurance,
in which their client,
my youngest son,
tends to disappear
from competitively BusinessAsUsual
extractive
distractive
reductively disengaged
solipsistic view.

I could say the same of parents
and older siblings
reading a story elite professionally,
but not nonelite co-passionately,

And of teachers
not actively listening to our own best and curiously paradoxical lessons
on living within more cooperative aspirations
for health abundant
fertile wealth.

 

I have an eldest son
addicted to his outside search
for inside self-esteem.

He would be a Loyal Taoist Soldier
if he had not grown up and out
among secularized angry yin-suppressors
of Beauty’s rich creolizing values.

He would African-American be
a somewhat hyperactive
yet WiseElder Mystic
if he had been raised by Taoist Sisters
rather than a yin-fearful,
bigoted,
supremacist patriarchal
racist
fascist
Yang-dominant LeftBrain
overshooting
Anthropocentric
-gentric
-eccentric lack of Yang-Yin
Left-Right bilaterally balancing
educational
deep sacred learning
cooperatively-owned culture.

I have an eldest son
who strongly prefers
to not go an entire day,
much less a week,
and a month would be eternity in empty hell,
without his Muse-THC.
stoned into rhythmic musicality.

Just as he was not to go through his best day,
and week,
and month of early school development
without feeling stoned
by his invisibility
as a person who mattered,
has noble and righteous and sacred potential,
gifts of mystic yin-rooted cooperative value
for singing and dancing
drumming and beating
expressing Gaia’s Wondrous EarthSoul

Creolizing rhythms
Blues
Jazz
Beat with syncopated
balancing
harmonic
nutritious
deep
dense
Mystic Warrior Values.

I have three sons,
one demented daughter,
born midst YangLeft Industrializing overshoot,
Tipping Pointed
to expose premillennial prejudice
of Yang as value rich
and Yin as matriotic under-valued,
hearing later millennial Revolutions
against Yang overconsumption
of Sacred Mystical Earth
and concomitant bloated human over-population

As measured by my nonelite sons
and one demented sacred daughter
who know this threatening pathological climate
already depresses their basic special humane yin-value
as icons of MotherEarth’s beautiful
sense of polyculturing humor.

Someday my eldest son
may read pre-millennial prophets
forecasting ZeroZen WinWin Fusing Dipolar Economists
re-centering his true and beautiful
Yin-Mystic sacred value
African-American creolized
in Western restoring therapeutic
Yang/Yin Resilient Justice.

He may yet read
of postmillennial healers
restoring PositivEnergy Democracy
double-binding notnot NegativEnergy
nutritional
nurturing
mystical dualdark values

He will see himself
as an ego-ecosystemic cooperative producer
of healthier nature-spirit food,
nutrition,
nurturance
absorbing WiseElder creolizers
embracing bilaterally balancing disciplines
harmonic sacred education
provoking deep rich secular bicameral Yang-Yin
Left-Right
Ego-WiseElder Eco deep-listening

I have an eldest son
who will remember
what he must have always pre-THC known,
YangCultures are nutritionally healthy
only as they are also not YinClimate pathological,
demonizing WiseElder Mystics and Matriarchs,
haters of Yang-Yin polypaths
polyphonic rhythms and patterns,
bigots against WinWin music and full-octaved color
of our best and healthiest
resiliently multicultural selves.

I have three sons
and one demented daughter
watching Yang too-extractive fuel-empowered
destabilizing GoldenEra possibilities
for Yang/Yin fractal synergy
internal-external integrity
of ego-eco systemic bilaterality
for regenerative creolizing society,
restoring Left-RightBrained resiliently
climate and landscape brilliantly
mindbody Yang wealth of Yin Mysticality

CoArising NonDual Health,
ZeroZen bicamerally certified
for polyculturing abundant secular-sacred wealth
of Egos in
co-operating resilient Ecos out,
breathing together in,
then out,
refolding creolizing in again.

Out for a BigWheel Spin

I take a four-fold spin
through Bill Plotkin’s wheel
of bilateral identities,
iconic developmental faces,
ironic personalities.

 

FIRST comes Eastern-born
dawn of human infancy,
Innocent Sage infants
so WiseElder
in our LeftBrain emergent
wrinkling unfolding
sacred RightBrain ways.

Searching for care giving eyes
to be sure we do
and do not know
what we are nutritionally together,
sometime toxically apart,
too impatiently,
loudly exclaiming.

 

SECOND Innocent of Language children
grow toward the far side of pubescence,
when cooperative extroverted curiosity
turns to more competitive introverted
hope for loss of virginal
alone identity innocence.

We turn post-pubescent
adolescent
South for our Wild,
but too quickly over-domesticated,
Indigenous Immigrants toward adulthood,
into Earth’s sacred-secular stewardship
of healthy neighborhoods.

High hormonal adolescence
flows full sensory-bonding
through rivers of kinship
with other polyculturing
cooperative
young adult species,
habitats,
gestalts,
hang outs,
mash ups,
meet ups,
seemingly endless
but hopefully PositivEnergy dialogue
among optimistic hopers,
not nihilistic deniers,
not supremely self-satisfied fascists,
totalitarian bullies
monoculturing bigots
and haters
of natures other than their own.

Although these are the end times
for Earth’s Wild Indigenous Anthropocene,
great and small nature-spirit TippingPoints
toward
West YangLeftBrain–
RightBrain ElderYin
Eastern NonDual CoOperativity.

 

Third SunGod sets now
too quickly for our continued Western patriarchal dominance
to co-arise Muse-Beloved Parents and Communities,
mature bilateral spirit-minds with nature-bodied adults,
wording our wending Blue-Green Way
toward turquoise-ultraviolet WiseElders,
another Spiral Dynamic stepping change
from Halocenes of RNA Red memory
into AnthroBilateral sensory scenes
of Green DNA
healthy-wealthy futures.

Muse-Beloved Western sky worshipers
fearing red skies at shipping out night
may be sailor’s delight
but it was not our graced intent to swim
or merely float
through nightmare floods
brought to us
by Gaia’s Wild Indigenous Rage
at inhumane monoculturing stupidity.

PositivEnergy Western Democracies
grow mature imaginative PositivEnergy networking parents,
adult idealistic,
often appropriately romantic,
co-operative mentors
for strongly Wild Indigenous
SunPatriot-EarthMatriot MultiCulturing Immigrants
toward our mature bicameral EcoMindfulness.

Muse-Beloved teachers
grow out through bilaterally self-reflective adolescent roots,
still reveling through nightmares
and daydreams of humane-growing destiny,
death and dying to YangEgo supremacy,
patient with yin-mystery
ambiguity
paradox
oxymorons of good/bad humor

Anti-ecological evangelicalism
blind to its own LoseLose strategic fascism
of intellectual property
as sole divine monocultural ownership
of love as grace
our secular-sacred
Muse-Beloved Human Polyculturing Egos
and EcoCommunities
made of EgoEco ReStoring Health Families.

Parents as Beloved Muses
move back toward Northern WiseElder memories,
and memes and enthymemes,
shared in childhood nurturing CreationStories
of DivaSpiraling AniMommy Mundi,
Hawks and Doves
speaking Wizard PolyPathic Magic,
Prophets of Climatic Doom
but also PositivEnergy internal polyphonic
deep listening learners
loving home-rooted family hermitage life

But also more ActiveHope
Work That Reconnects
EgoEco Psychopomp CoOperative Incubators
PositivEnergy Restorative Therapy
for Holonic WiseElder NatureSpirits
from ZeroZen North
EarthSouls.

 

Fourth SpaceTime
Alpha and Omega TippingPoints
of sacredRight
4D RealTime,
also Left EgoEco polynomial bilateral.

Nurturing WiseElders,
ReGenerative
often wrinkled from not enough innocence of age
and too much lack of innocents age,
but sometimes post-millennially precocious
NaturalLeft co-arising SpiritualRight Leaders,
benevolently nonviolent mentors
of cooperative ownership
and co-investment
in restoring health as justice,
egoLeft with ecoRight
Bodhisattva PeaceWarriors,
Instigators,
Designers,
Planters and Harvesters,
CoMessianic EarthLove Matriots
GodFather Tree Huggers
and PositivEnergy Democratic CoInvestors
in Earth’s Health-Wealth
Resilience-Resonance Reports.

WiseElders of all transmillennial ages
look for Ego sustainability
through resilient/resonant EarthHealth Results.

Resilience scales to measure resonant health
as sufficient wealth capacity
to re-acclimate
balancing nutritional disturbances
yet remaining cooperatively committed
to PositivEnergy CoDemocracy co-mentoring functions
and Restoring Therapeutic GoldenRule Systems,
WinWin ecopolitical YangLeft-YinRight structures.

Resilient WiseElders

End of an Era

This Halocene Epic
of GaiaEarth
began with FirstMourning Adam

This Halocene broke out
when Eve yinned
and Adam yanged
verbality’s first day
beyond non-verbals
with and for and sometimes against
each other.

And so this HumanGrowing Halocene Bubble
progresses up through
our current bimillennial cusp,

With no land-based frontiers
exterior
to further infest
with our growing mess
of waste
pollution of healthy life
wealthy rooting systems
interior frontiers
double-boundaried polypathic
polyphonic harmonic
RightRed West with LeftBlue East

Turning this Tipping Halocene
back toward cooperative Adam/Eve health
within and without
breathing in health
for humorous healing
this Halocene’s Climate Crisis,

Breathing out therapies
for EcoCentric Mother Trees,
advocating multigenerational reforestation
of continents,
healing soils
by healing souls
healing our cooperatively organic soil
and water,
and clarifying cooperative air.

This Halocene Tipping Point
between frigid glacier eras
and burning molten hells
is our human risk
and humane opportunity
to use LeftBrain deductive dominance
as a SacredElder RightBrain co-organic tool
developed and designed
by RNA-rooted Elders

Designed specifically for this dark post-millennial time
of demonic risk and angelic opportunity
to promise healthy wealthy life
for future generations
and to threaten punishments
due to our irresponsible greed,
extracting averise,
competition glutony
drawing down this Halocene’s slow grown Savings Account
rather than learning to live
within and off and for and of
our Sacred Earth’s WinWin
healthy co-investing interest,

Organic Intent
for LeftBrain-RightBrain rebalancing
Revolutions for PositivEnergy Democracy
of Sacred Ecological Earth.

ReWinding of First and Second Deeper Anthrocene
WiseElder
DNA with RNA
Bodhisattva CoRedeeming Souls.

PositivEnergy WinWin streams,
goodnews Western Grace
with notnot badnews Eastern Karma
give DNA fractals such a regenerative buzz
liberating RightBrain repressed NegativEnergy,
true enough,
but Positive refers not just to direction
but also pace,
not too fast or slow-grown,
just right timing of Here with Now.

Any quasi-disciplined,
sometimes a bit paranoid
victimized
competitive
rebellious insomniac
knows the felt difference
between hyperactive NegativEnergy
and the more slow-grown fertile climate
of PositivEnergy’s WinWin centering
ZeroCore

Soul with Soil
revering interior-exterior space
slow growing PositivEnergy Times
and Healing Eras

And EgoEcoTherapeutic
Halo-Anthrocenes,
more climate and landscape angels
than monoculturing dissonant demon scenes.

Wildly Domesticating BiCamerality

I wouldn’t call Bill Plotkin’s WildMind
unmitigated Wild RightBrained,
nor would I call his WinWin therapeutic thinking
with PositivEnergy feelings
entirely LeftBrain domesticated, diminished

Commodified, capitalized,
colonized and conquered,
deduced and reduced
down to a slow-grown dark pearl
of Negative YinEnergy
seduced by Yang Supremacy
yet still resiliently whispering

Sweet-felt nothings
to speak of dipolar Wild Risks
are also Therapeutic Opportunities,
either way,
PositivEnergy
with double-binding
not secular yet–
not still sacred

We must HereNow bilaterally speak
of Ed De Bono’s bilateral mind
as Plotkin’s WinWin
horizontal EgoEco fractal
of four winning prime colors,
or subpersonalities,
or Seasons of AnthroGeneric Development

Shaping
co-arising Anima EcoLove,
birthing
spiral colored
WinWin and WinLose and LoseLose
ecopolitical democracies
avoiding apartheid violent aristocracies.

Although I’m not so sure
about Plotkin’s sequence of West
through North
through East
emerging SouthLight Yellow
at this bimillennial TippingPoint moment.

But turquoise and ultra-violet by Night
and purple with delineating yellow by Day
sounds about Ego-Eco politically spectral correct
to RightBrain dominant
Rainbow fascinated
singing and dancing EarthSouls.

But Beige at the beginning
of co-arising bilateral Time ourselves?
That’s a Cowan and Beck
Spiral Dynamics error.

This Beige must not
and could not be,
but grey-scale instead
before LeftBrain language
developed stereophonic color categories
and scent regimes
for YangLight
with Yin DNA-RNA fractal
dualdark

Strings full-orchestra
restoring therapeutic democracy
of bilateral HereNow time
co-arising
nondually
dipolar
PositivEnergy
equal
in resilient-conscious empowerment
with dualdark NegativEnergy.

Like Trump and NewAge Lenin NegativEnergy
shitting on North Korea
stressed-out
short-person syndrome
NewAnthropogentric Age Napoleon
his tree,
KISS
I
N
G,
primal lavish geopolitical royalty,
West double-binding East
in nihilistic corrupting competitivity.

If I could turn back WildMind Time
I would fly us back to PA
and Michigan
and Wisconsin too,
to get just a few more wise women
to ignore complacency polls
ignoring Russian trolls,

To stand up against sexism
and AmericaFirst Totalitarianism,
and Climate Pathology Denialism,
and pathological absence of restorative health care.

To stop raking their liberated democratic leaves
for a half hour.
Go vote
for anyone but CombOver Bully
with the grabby hands
of MeFirst Supremacism
and ThirdGeneration bad attitude
of a nouveau riche pretention
not so wild woolly
WhitePatriarch bully,

Hopelessly confused
especially about how to make a WinWin resilient profit,
or prophet,
much less prophetess
with Sacred Matriotic Earth.

Healthy WildRight dipolar minds
and Domesticated LeftDominant brains
all agree,
healthy wealth lies
in turning Yang down
at least a YinSquared cooling degree.

Away from monoculturing Red
and toward BlueGreen cooperativity.

Who Are You: Remix

Who are you
on your best WiseElder day,
in your healthiest cultural reinvesting place
and time?

I am an ecological theology writer
with my pen,
a fighter
with my punishing,
shaming and blaming words,
a delighter
without swords
for unnecessary self-defense.

Who are you?

I am a parent
and a gay white son
married to a proud black man
of parents who taught nature as not spirit,
and spirit as not nature,
logos as not mythos,
Yang as not Yin,
rather than the other co-arising facing
nondualistic Way.

Who are you?

I am a seeker
of transparency
in multicultural love
for work as play
as fun
as joy.

Who are you?

I am a Tao-parent
of and for polypathic deep learning synergy
of racing LeftBrain Yangish health
with way less wealth
of guns
and Might
makes LeftBrain authoritarian
Right.

Who are you?

I am active Hope
sometimes graceful,
going out of my listening way
to avoid prideful,
needful,
lack of speech soulful,
without gratitude
for positive energy attitude.

I am for democracy of cooperative nutritional health trends
and grand green and blue wealthy river bends;

I am Hope for golden ends
and means
and ways
and ratios
and elixirs,
medicines
and meditations
and ultra violet bilateral therapies
of full-spectral colors and resonance,
sound and resilience.

Who are you?

I am a matcher
of ego
with Earth’s economic justice.

I am a hatcher
of Left with RightWing Holy Synergistics.

I am a snatcher
restoring just pro-life rightness
nondual EarthEast
with Western PostMillennial
EcoLogistics.

I am a WinWin pearl nabber
regenerating DNA
with RNA,
healthing cultural PolyPhonitics.

Who are you?

I am a singer
and a dancer,
a double-bound winger
and a love prancer.

Who are you?

I am notnot you
as we co-arise cooperative identities together.
I am notnot self-uniting
as we co-gravitate to sacred gather.

Who are you?

Taliban Tales

How wrong could I be
were I to assume
most Taliban leaders
in Afghanistan
have aging parents?

Especially mothers,
as it is not specifically healthy
to be a male in such a violent
raped
poverished,
nutritionally-barren place

And Taliban parents
might also have kids hungry and thirsty
and afraid to give us grandkids,
for economic and political starvation reasons.

It might occur to healthy energy democratic leaders
thinkers and feelers
that feeding
and restoring healthy therapeutic ecosystems
could grow better polycultural Afghanistan wealth outcomes
promised by Allah
and YHWH alike.

Restorative, rather than more extractive, retributive justice
could work more WinWin effectively,
than continuing bad karma retributive violent goals
of assured mutual environmental destruction
and inhumane death and dying and terrorizing
paranoid children,
and other forms of almost incalculable dismay
through strategies rooted in punishment
and threat
and counter-terrorism terror,
visiting the sins of fathers
upon Yang soldiers
and Yin sacred daughters and aging mothers alike.

Voting With Our Feet

It seemed to me,
when I was eight,
U.S. Christian disciples and teachers
had been given so much grace

And had fundamentally boiled it down
to settling for such small subcontinental WhitePatriarchal colonizing gratitude
for God’s universally healthy
multicultural EarthTribes.

It was so simple,
when I was of sufficient college-bound age,
to simply shop around
play around
work around
the Great PolyPathic Perennial Philosophy
to find others like my multiculturally grateful self.

I voted with my feet
but also quickly joined my heart
and WinWin regenerative mind,
my nature as my spirit
flowing out
and echoing back
with resonant polyphonic four-toned gospels,
abundant integrity of Truths
with Beauty
in Golden Ratios of Good
with just plain mono-supremacist BadPolitics

Climates of healthy wealth prevailing
still with some rainy Monday pre-millennial pathology.

I was, and remain,
a conscientious objector
to colonizing Christian fundamental-fascist supremacy
of bad attitude
toward sacred polypathic polycultures
within our universal HolySpirit-Nature.

For no RealTime Jewish Teacher
would separate these two,
YangNature with YinSpirit
conjoined in YHWH;
bicameral-trinitarian,
patriarchal-matriarchal
ego-eco
humane-divine SacredHead,
AlphaPoint BlackHole,
Earth’s AnimaMundi,
Secular/Sacred Original Intent.

I was a conscientious objector to Vietnam violence,
to war and slavery and forced extractions
and violent competitions aborting yet-unborn restorative therapies.

A C.O. to less than co-passionate love
for disenfranchised and under-valued women
and for sadly maladapted and under-educated
brilliantly healthy cooperative post-millennial children,

Who somehow know pre-millennial Climate Change
as opportunities to face post-millennial Climate Pathologies.

What if a polypathically loving child,
or even a WiseEldering adult,
were free to Conscientiously Object with their feet.
Object to nationalistic pathologies,
to aggressive intent of too viciously circling
and hoarding predators,
trading bad-faith threats of economic-political OnePercent Supremacy
enforcing and securing 99% apartheid
while promising/threatening Gospel
of PatriarchDominant Orthodox Grace
not including yin-resilient integrity
of Holy ZeroZen EarthSpirit-Nature

Filling with richer
and deeper liturgical dancing,
more sacred ego-ecosystemic WinWin balance
of AnimaMundi,
notnot just post-millennially (0)Sum-Core-Soul
but Original Intent
of DNA-RNA Multi-PolyPhonic RegeneratorGod.

What if Conscientious Objectors
felt free to follow our diverse Holy EarthSoul vocations
wherever on Earth we are most deeply invited
to DNA with RNA co-invest?

Where meet our hearts
and minds
beyond and through any nationalistic boundaries,
cultural invitations
we might find
in response to merely passing an investment
and personal-political education application
with flying rainbow colors
demonstrating experience to date with nurturing
maturing as a healthy cooperative-loving
grateful
and actively integrating potential co-investor,
and supporter,
and voter
for multicultures of healthy resilience,
resonance,
robust nutritional wealth
long awaited by all international Conscientious Objectors
to National Rights and Wrongs
reigning supreme over Earth Climate and
Energy and
Nutrition and
Health Matriotic Rights and Patriotic Wrongs.

If I receive recruitment brochures
on 100% recycling paper
for Conscientious Objectors to extractive colonizing mentalities wanted
in Malaysia
and Fiji,
Panama
and Brazil,
Egypt
and South Africa,
Ireland
and Turkey,
Israel
and India,
Japan
and North and South Korea,
Iceland
and Australia,
looking to attract
objectors to Totalitarian Militaristic Cultures
and EnCulturation,
in all its secular
and quasi-sanctimonious
fundamentally xenophobic apartheid deformations,

Looking for those supporting
a thinner healthier non-violent
Switzerland of nutritional
and energy democracy,
Rights to HealthingEarth,
Mother Forest inhabitations,
Pacific Beach combing and networking
and sand reweaving waves of time ourselves.

What Conscientious Objector could resist
such lavish invitations
to walk away from those left pre-millennially behind
to think and stink its OK
and safer
to buy and sell and extract each others’ sacred vocations?
To health and healing and healer,
to co-redeem,
restore just and peaceful karma cultures.

What God has conjoined
as Sacred EarthTribes
re-integrating cooperative ParadiseLost
designed best for creole WinWinning
together Elite and NotNotElite.

I have always wanted healthier cooperative wealth,
not only with Earth’s humane conscientious objectors
to Business As Usual Apartheid,
but also bilaterally co-invested ego-ecoconscientious advocates
mentors
teachers
parents most gracefully abundant
and awesomely edible forest-dwellers,
restoring turquoise surfing oceans,
breathing in
as out,

Without annoying distractions
of nationalistic apartheid
investing in wall-building
where YHWH has planted conjoining rivers,
heading from and toward MatrioticEarth’s
deeply learning
sacred ecological
polypathic theology.

Wendell Berry’s Boutique

Organic
zero-waste stream
permaculturally designed
and cooperatively owned
farms
are no more or less Democratic-Boutique ecopolitics

Than AgriBusiness
extractive anti-ecological
rather than restorative-ecosystemic therapy,
competitively owned
and Business as Usual capitalist-colonizing designed
multinational conglomerates of anthro-hubris greed,
are no more or less Totalitarian Universal Supremacist ecopolitics.

I heard a young woman farmer
raising grass-fed cattle
on her small organic farm
designed to restore health to Southern
RedState topsoil,
as well as to her kids’ kids,
future farmers of Postmillennial America.

She believed the small scale
of her natural-spiritual restorative farming economy
placed her at a disadvantage
to receive government operational loans
as compared to multinational agribusiness conglomerates
using chemicals and pesticides
to kill topsoil
and extract short-term nutritional values
at long-term disinvested cost
to future healthy generations
and their dreams to health-wealth thrive.

A government farm subsidy expert responded:

If we don’t have enough capital to loan to everyone,
we are forced to give priority funding
to larger scale producers
with capacity to provide more than sufficient this-year nutrients
for our large domestic and foreign flooding markets.

She did not mention costs of growing obesity
and simultaneous malnutrition,
dual-poignant trends.

She did add,
The agricultural sector is complex,
composed of large agribusinesses
and small boutique operations,
and all are welcome by UncleDonald to apply,
after first saluting the TrumpTowers,

But she left unchallenged
the Farmer’s original matriotic complaint
of an uneven ecopolitical playing field
that actually favors large patriarchal corporate greed operations
invested in toxic
extractive
farming-as-raping sociopathic practices.

As I was listening to the farm subsidy expert
on competitive economics
make her case for giving separate but
only marginally unequal value
to these diverse nutritional scales,
small and more robustly large,
with distinct investment niches
available for public dollar support
of a presumably synergetic-democratic agricultural department,
without conceding undue favor to AgriBusiness multinationals.

Separatists, yes;
Supremacists for BusinessAsUsual, no.

I was starkly reminded
of an OldSchool KKK spokesman
who last year said
the WhiteBrother Klans are racial separatists
but not WhiteMale Supremacists.

It does feel like a pathological distinction
without a healthy,
non-WhiteWashed, difference
for present
or future lives
of and for thriving nutritional diversity,
deep sacred-secular ecological synergy.

When will pre-millennial threats
ever learn how to hear post-millennial therapies
as other than Boutiquely Synergetic?

I know…
I know!…
When we have to grow together
rather than continue failing apart.

Celebrating Heroes

I want to respond
to the retired Marine
who watched Democratic Congressional Leaders
during the State of our crippled Union event,
disappointed at how their patriotism,
their loyalty to sacred sacrifices of soldiers
appears too tepid,
jaded,
ungrateful
as compared to more thunderous enthusiastic applause
and standing ovations of Republican Leaders.

I have noticed this too
both during various national bipartisan rhetorical events,
and also within my conscientious objector self,
And I wonder about my own hesitation
to celebrate military heroism,
as if this were an oxymoron,
like military peace intelligence.

For me,
such internal heart-warming applause
is chilled by my own half-empty embarrassment
that I have gone through my recent months and years
perhaps too full of willing tolerance
for moral assumptions too big to fail,
that we are OK to predatively place
other men and women,
regardless of culture or religion or nationality,
and their necessarily neglected children,
in harms toxically unnecessary way.

An heroic investment
far too expensive for developing healthy persons,
plants,
or planet.

This is not how we wisely invest
in sacred Earth’s climates
and healthing cultures.

My celebration of military heroes
remains perennially muted
by my unease about planting future threats
by paying springtime federal taxes
because I conscientiously object,
for spiritual experience
and religious belief reasons,
how large the mountainous percentage
invested in threat of death and dying
and paying ever-mounting interest
on past military industrialized deficit
overheating budgets.

Stolen from potential health
and well-being
of Earth’s future generations
spread throughout all Earth’s sacred residents
now terrified of upcoming ballistic climates.

I should have tried harder,
more conscientiously,
to invest in restoring ballasts of co-operative climates.

So, I intend no disrespect
for courage
and honor
and heroes
for those who have survived
violence and
fear and
anger and
greed and
political pretensions of Elitists
too old to fight themselves,
but just rightwinged enough
to invest in further armaments,
and thereby profit nicely.

I feel no disrespect
for those who have not survived
and will not survive,
much less thrive in pathological death-culture.

But nationalistic applause
and praying for God’s blessings on U.S. First and Last,
Right or Wrong,
feel consciousness unsettling
when I experience God’s applause
for love and peace
and not our hate and
fear and
anger and
violence against each other,
regardless of religion or
culture or
national origin
or gender
or color
or age,
born,
long gone,
or yet unborn.

I know God too omnipotent and omnipresent
to respect inhumane national apartheid boundaries.

Heroes
are those who have gone well past their patriotic duty
far beyond what anyone could honestly
and reasonably ask,
beyond what most of us might expect of ourselves,

Especially while those left behind
remain in free-markets
to profit off the tanks
and submarines
and rifles soldiers bravely carry,
bullets and bombs they aim,
often at the even more profitable investments
of these same 1% Elite,
regardless of International Conglomerate Status.

For those who are persuaded
what was asked
was itself a positive democracy protecting moral act,
standing ovations of buoyant applause
feel resoundly called for
from warmly celebrating hearts.

But, for those of us
who empathize with heroes both alive and dead
regardless of religion or culture or national origin,
who feel such violence reflects our own democracy protecting failures
to conscientiously love all sacred life sufficiently,
Such unmitigated happiness feels heart-wrenchingly wrong.

In face of such selfless investment
in violence and risk to healthy futures
for threatening death
and objectives of destruction,
we more likely bow our disinvested heads,
take a humbled knee,
silent in awe of such uncompelling bad-breathed ambiguity,

Yet not wanting to offend
against such sacred gifts
offered at an unacceptable cost
We never had the conscientious right to ask
another soul to pay.

I do not believe disrespect
is democratically intended
for lack of con-celebrating our violent history’s heroes;
but respectful listening grows more conscientiously compelling
for humility
of political and economic enablers,
co-investors like myself,
with guilt and shame about what others have paid
because we did not act sufficiently

Degrees of Separation

The story of my unique biosystem
goes back,
as does yours,
through six degrees of separation,
each with its own dominant culture,
tincture,
color,
taste and feel.

Feedback loops began with rainbows
and tidal streams ebbing and flowing
and lunar
and solar cycles.

Looping back in spirals
of ecosystemic revolutions
in WinWin fractals and octaves,
of resilient color
and resonant sound,
despite apartheid evolutions
in Business As WinLose Usual.

In 1868
when my eight great grandparents
may have been children of slaves
and of slave owners
and were probably children scandalized by all the above,
James Clerk Maxwell
wrote a paper On Governors
before electricity
even had a name,
much less a governing harness
for commodifying light to see
ears to hear
Energy Democracy.

This seminal systems analysis
was about ancient,
but not timeless,
feedback loops of nature,
and perhaps cooperative ecosystemic spirits
and notnot WinWin open therapeutic feedback loops
and Business As Usual closed WinLose thermodynamic loops
for regulating normal
EcoPower Over exterior climates
and EgoPower Under interior climates,
although he was more familiar
with vicious WinLose circular systems
and virtuous WinWin feedback co-governing loops.

Yet roughly two thousand years earlier
LaoTzu, of Taoist Yang with Yin co-arising fame,
also wrote to governors
about egos and ecos
yang/yin wu-wei narrow septic balancing,
and YinSquared valleys of restorative light
equivalent to Yang Mountains of and for WiseElders,
Left-Right
West-East

Mountains co-arising Valleys
of bilateral co-intelligent governance.

Yang working cooperatively with Yin
as contrasted to EgoCentric hubris
of EgoYang powering over
EcoYin’s matriotic resilient understory
of notnot
WinWin
YinSquared fractal-octave enlightenment,
healthy co-governors
v pathological overseers of the unfortunately NonElite.

Those poor in spirit
but often rich in creolizing soul.

From where did my ego flow
across more than six degrees
of generational separation?
Who did my sixty-four great
great
great
great grandparents
listen to when they were learning
how to develop healthy ego and eco-centered co-governing loops?

What were their diverse languages
for sacred-secular reweaving Creation Stories?

Villages restoring healing
to land
and sea
and sky,
to hearts
and minds in enlightening
co-governing
inter-related bodies
of individuating ego-identity
surrounded by ecosystemic multiculturing voices
singing and screaming,
gentle breezing and fury blowing,
tropical and artic,
bright and warm and wet
and cool and cold and dry.

Two hundred years ago
my sixty four root tendrils
were almost certainly memories
of WiseElder words
and songs
and dances of most loved slaves
and slaveowners
and how they were so scandalized
by such blatantly WinLose peculiarities
of supposedly LeftBrain mature cooperators with RightBrain
co-governing secular ego health
with sacred eco-abundant co-enlightenment

Light of Left-Right separations,
ego-eco systems,
co-governing back through at least six ingenerators
of interdependent separation,
journeying toward eight degrees
of spiraling integrity
capital-invested
co-regenerative redemption,
restorative healing,
hybrid of ego healing within and upon Earth’s ecotherapy.

Retributive WinLose cycles of longing Yang
with restorative WinWin recycles belonging Yin
need each other.
For how would we recognize cooperative health
without too competitive pathology?
