Ran into an old friend
just the other day.

Has to have been
50 years
another Tao Way.

She made that big mistake
of asking what I’ve been up to.

Well, I’ve been studying
systematic multicultural theology
and, then, regenerative ecology.

Oh,
that sounds nice.
Probably keeps you out of trouble.

Yes, well, I guess it is nice,
but not trouble-free.
Another word
might be “athletic.”

Like soccer?

More like gymnastics
and long-distance running.
Anyway,
have you ever heard of Process Theology?
It has a first Christian cousin
in Creation Theology

Brought to us
by Matthew Fox,
but also rooted more experientially,
synergetically,
by both Eastern and Western nature/spirit
embodied mind mystics.

Well, sounds like I have some homework
to do–to catch up.

Just Google process theology
or creation theology
or, better, both
and see if you can see
positive correlations
for those with ears
to hear,
noses
to smell,
hands
to touch
with compassion.

Ok, well, thanks.
I’ll get right on that.

Then, look up regenerative ecology,
restorative environmental justice
and try creation ecology–
and maybe positive psychology’s
Theory of Original Matriarchal Attachment.

See if they all sound alike
reforming a meta-paradigm
for sprouting polypathic
feeding polyamorous
watering polynomial
nonviolent ecological communication
and experiential organic theology.

Well, my goodness!
Look at the time…

Exactly,
space within bilateral time,
Here within timeless Now,
Yang strong positives
Yin flowing spiraling waves
of double negatives

LeftBrain dominant
monotheistic consciousness
undermining RightBrain prominent
polytheistic sentience
elegantly and intimately unfolding
in-between cognitive complexity
and intuitive chaos

Alpha and Omega
One and Zero cobinary
bilaterally double-binding
bicameral co-intelligence

natural ecological ego-habitats
and spiritual neurological eco-habituations
organic culture within
sacred climate without
health reforming
polyamorously wealthy experience,
collateral compassions
perpetrating Zero NonSum-ologies

Each of these
WinMind+WinBody strategies
for healthy resilient systems.

Sorry,
had to check my texts.
Kids, you know.
Never stop being a responsible parent
or friend.
Were you still talking?

If a verbal communicator
stands
or sits
or squats in a forest
without touching a forest
of non-listeners,
is a compassionate communicator speaking
or just resounding within themselves?

I’ll have to think about that.
Well, until next time…
