We are natural bodies outside
engaging spiritual souls inside
So also,
and more significant integrity
in this domesticated desecrating
lack of thriving
We are timeless souls
with spacious bodies
Sexual souls
with sacred bodies
Some sages called
to wild-muse ordination
of sensexual singing souls
communing sacred dancing bodies
Inside pleasure history’s
reweaving healthy rites
outside passion mystery’s
re-ligioning wild wealth sights
Of natural wilderness bodies
restoring spiritual sanctuary souls.
The opposite of life
is death
The polar opposite of eternal health
is terminal disease,
with unease perhaps lying/truthing
in-between timelessness
and untimely demise
So too,
my opposite of steady compassion
may be your unsettling dispassion
Elation v deflation
of all these oppositional answers above
as clear
as unclear appositional questings
below.
What is my opposite of suicide?
Self promotion?
Ego inflation?
Having all my consuming needs
fully answered?
Or
maybe some uneasy questing
timeless mind
and spacious body
in-between healthy Now
And death-defying
death-denying
death-defining
death-despairing
death-despoiling
AnthroLove Here
Remains part of EarthLife There
whenever tomorrow comes
Now?
As Me curiously questioning
feels like our lonelier half
of We not yet
finally answering?
What could appositionally rebalance
death’s final answering Earth-climate
and life’s open questioning Anthro-culture?
What is the opposite of lively ruminations
and deadly ideations?
What lies contentious truths contenting,
In-between EarthBody’s discommunication
desecrating death
and AnthroMind’s sacred communion life?
Enjoying Earth’s promised land
of compassionate
multicultural communion,
we share a preference for deep
rich soil
and fertile green-blue
resonating surf
As our bodies adjust
to rocky and prickly
either me
or not me space
And our minds flow
back and forth
through gooey both “me”
and organic neurosensory “we”
peace searching times
of glad/bad memory,
healthy peak and unwealthy valley
remembering felt body trauma
and mindfully resilient therapies
Inhaling Earth’s past sacred unions
Exhaling into conjoined future
compassionate communion.
These reflections came to mind
this morning
as I recalled a recent clergy question:
“What did you FEEL
when you first read
this proposal for a change
in our corporate
orthodox
Universal Salvific
and Unitarian CoRedemptive
liberated feminist tradition.”
I remember listening for neuro-sensexually
enlightened language
for distinguishing core
empowered/disempowered Feelings
primally limited to:
Glad-anticipating win/win peak mind/body experiences
Bad-anxious about lose/lose dualdark valley experiences
Sad-depressed about my own win/lose long-term chances
Mad-about suppressed short-term survival
odds against overpowering PatriarchalGod’s
timeless dispassion.
My gladness trying to thrive
despite an unholy trinity
responding to trauma history
of multigenerational peak/valley surfing
change
Transitions
in glad health opportunities
reforming bad unease
sad disease
mad missing ease
invoking dissociative
neuro-sensexual despair
informing future opportunities
for compassionate repair.
Out of twenty
LeftBrain verbal dominant responses
to this spirited natural feelings question,
only two mentioned feelings
underlying
predicting positive
and negative
and ambivalent thoughts.
One said both glad about opportunity
for deep communal dialogue
and sad about lowly lay victims
speaking against too powerful and unenlightened
religious professional orchestrations
Us v them rhetoric
creating a polarizing culture
of win/lose
0-sum
closed-off
competitive
destabilizing trauma
Lack of EarthPeace
and Restorative Justice
in the deep rich soil
and fertile green-blue surf
of nature-spirited communion
opportunities for peak dialogical experiences
of LeftMind/RightBody
enlightened/empowering
FatherSun/MotherEarth co-passionate
revival.
Another wise woman elder responded
with “confused”
which encompasses,
without resonantly resolving,
all of Glad and Bad
Sad and Mad
chaotic flowing mind
feeling toxically disembodied
from sacred healing peace
restoring EarthTribe Justice
co-passionate mission statements
EarthTribe healing vocations.
What no one said
was “compassion”
for the romantic-comedy of peak experienced Glad
and the traumatic-tragedy of dark valley experienced
Bad’s
short-term Mad
and long-term chronic Sad
Lose/Lose absence
of healthy
enlightened
messianic minds
Surfing through empowered
co-redemptive neurosensory
bodhisattva bodies
of spiritual/natural
mental/physical
co-passionate communicators
Win/win naturally resilient
co-mediating spiritual practicers
rooted in peak experiences
of comprehensive synergetic feelings
more resiliently Glad
than dispassionately Bad
Speaking our restorative justice
free and co-responsive win/win
searching truths
to patriarchal/capitalist
win/lose systemic trauma.
If Thou take not our hands,
and feet,
our bodies
hosting ghostly minds,
our organic inside lives
flowing out emphatic love
We will continue to fail,
to fear,
to feel tired,
weary,
worn.
When I try to sing this earnest prayer
with only my heady voice
from the neck up,
following all correct notes,
judiciously following lines of predicted pitch
and sanguine rhythm,
this feels secularized,
dissociated,
dissonant,
disembodied
divisive
diminishing
Just another LeftBrain verbally dominant presentation,
pretty practice
preparing for passive,
impassive listeners
unmoved
unwounded
untouched.
But, if I feel free to sing
in urgent gospel voice,
full body moving
rhythmic passionate choice,
Then, together we embrace with hands,
with feet,
hips
knees bowed
shaking
supporting
quaking
remembering past sacred invocations,
a plea for grace
sufficient safe space
for this next breath,
next minute,
hour,
dark night.
“I have lost my precious son”
to disease
to death
to suicide
to hate
to anger
to fear
to greed
to sadness
badness
madness,
to lack of full-bodied gospel
gladness.
“I have lost my faith”
in healing
in compassion
in power of faith
hope
love
passion
curiosity,
light of regeneration
music
nonviolence
communication
peace
communion.
“I am drowning in fear”
and anger
trauma
panic
that my life loses sacred meaning
and secular purpose,
divine agency
without this mindful,
fully embodied
cherished 0-soul relationship
between mindfulness
and full-bodied wellbeing.
A transparent
vulnerable
passionate togathering
of primal love,
eye to eye,
ear to ear,
cheek to cheek
engagement
from universal crown
to unitarian root chakras
Whole neurosystemic singing voices
for healing hands,
dancing choices
for strong-heeled feet.
Precious Lord
on sacred knee
I cannot stand
again straining within restricted lines,
merely correct notes
with sufficiently static pitch,
frozen below my neck,
devoid of love lost
darkly sacred invocations,
urgent compassions
Inviting Precious Lord
to take my hands,
my feet,
my mindful crown
and sacred bodied roots
singing down into deep nurturing
raw dancing need
to cherish Earth’s sacred Integrity
Life and Death
Health and Pathology
Gain and Loss
Summer and Winter
Regeneration and Degeneration
Light and Dark
MindPower and BodyLoss
Rest and weary
Peace and worn
Strong and weak
Positive and negative
Either and or

Dearest,
I know we agreed
to practice stretching our compassion
to include those we actively loath,
and I have been trying
but…
Yes, I know,
it’s difficult to out-trump Trump’s
apparent toxicity,
with benign integrity
without appearing morally comatose
So,
what have you come up with?
maybe it could work for me as well.
When my Republican friends
ask me for feedback,
which happens maybe…
…well, never
I go with
I have noticed that Mr. Trump’s
intelligence
and his generous talent for ignoring hypocrisy
are unimpeachable.
Which could mean
his lack of enlightenment
and his lack of integrity
are not, in and of themselves,
impeachable offenses
And it could mean
his sinister affective intelligence
and tenacity
remain unquestioned
by other self-righteous
Patriarchal Capitalists
As they speak amongst themselves
inside EarthTribe’s
Straight White Privileged
Men’s Room.
I remember,
back in early pre-colonial days,
when promise
and purposes
of prosperity,
well-being,
safe wealthy health care
assumed universal EarthTribal goals
For uniting spiritual
mental health
including natural
embodied wealth
for all organic
and mineral
and bone
and teeth
and nails
and hearts
and guts
and root chakras
of woody plants
and patriarchal people
on EarthTribe’s shared
and sacred
matriarchal planet.
And, I remember
not so long ago
when bipartisan cooperative co-investment
in health
was resilient wealth
for people,
plants,
and eco-planetary systems
built through resonant nonviolent communications
advocating economic health,
liberally conservational wealth
of panentheistic Earth Communion
Inviting co-investments
in politically enlightened
co-empowerment.

My left-brain dominant challenge
begs for a worldview
of unconditional warm regard
Which sometimes feels uncomfortably warm
through heated confrontations
confused about whose voice is rightfully speaking
respectfully with whom
And who is listening curiously
for
and with whom
to practice universal
uniting compassion,
employing warm organically-fed tools
sometimes slow as molasses
in January
Not cold steel weapons,
icicles aimed for the hearts
and minds of difficult Others.
On our best days
and nights
not too coldly distant
and not too heatedly dissonant
Even on our worst traumatic days
and narcissistic dramatic nights,
silent listening voices
urge unconditionally curious regard
To avoid slippery unsafe
unhealthy slopes
of anger blaming lack of patience
and self-shaming fear
reacting against Others’ impatience
Judgment
that I am not important enough
to respect,
to regard,
to notice,
to matter,
to value,
to appreciate,
to love
unconditionally
Outside my left-hemisphere dominant
claustrophobic box
of mere linear
cause-effect
univocal reason
And
Inside limbic right-hemisphere resonance,

For integral indigenous mind/bodies
peaceful spirit/natures

transforming queer uniting mirrors

reassessing Earth’s safe wealth/health seasons
For white male privileged
left-brain dominant challenges
continuing to punish and divide
insufficient time from sufficient sacred space
for unconditional warm regard.
