When Singers Meet

When singers meet
and singing greet
we soon begin to dance
or even take a walk
to sacred journey prance

While listening,
often lusting,
for confluence
in previously unexplored
mysterious places

Seeking resonance
fulfilling urgently resilient,
often intimate,
spaces

Times timing
for all who have sung 4/4 before
to dance among these holy
what for faces

Ringing new symphonies
of warm,
and often slightly wet,
heart strung constellations
(concerto consummations).

By This GoodYear

By this GoodYear,
invest in this Good 20/20 eco-political Year,

Buy for yourself,
cash in advance powerful traction!

Buy for your kids
with balding tires
and scratchy heads!

Buy for your friends
for future skid-free insurance
protecting from washed out futures!

Store them in your garage
your kids’ sheds
your neighbor’s extra bed

Wheels to co-empowerment,
even, and oddly, those
you may not need
for yet another green climate decade.

Light speed
is to power
as green enlightenment
is to 2020 empowerment.

TransPartisan Anxious Anticipations

What is coming to pass
with my anticipation,
when passed
provokes anxiety
about my loss.

What is coming to pass
with my anxiety,
when passed through
returns toward my grateful anticipation.

Then what is coming to pass
with this anticipation…

Summer Saturday

On a Michigan farmer Saturday
in August,
anticipating tomorrow’s evangelical Sabbath,

When late summer vacations
invoked pre-sacred house cleanings
more unusually light,

Heading outside after lunch
into this spectacularly breezy
blue billowing
discontinuously cumulus cloudy
in-between radiant sky blue
infinite wonder

Into this awesomely long leisurely afternoon
becoming one of those special kids
sent out to rediscover solitary play
while Mom clears HER kitchen
to fill our kitchen
with impossible fragrance
of Sunday dinner rhubarb pie
or fresh strawberry shortcake,
whipping vanilla or banana cream
while boiling sweet yellow corn,
baking mac and ancient cheddar cheese
for this evening’s pre-dusk compline dinner.

On this first summer celebrating Saturday
of low humidity
and temperatures predicting September 70s

Out past our red barn
and past its barnyard lily pond
and into golden stubbled hay fields,
sheared sexy contoured face
of my temporarily uncloseted gay imaginings
hoping for YangGod’s sexiest face
smiling in sabbath of return

Continuing on
to private green cool woodland
to nakedly climb a favorite tree
skin to naked bark,
full-bodied embrace
of this fabulous shared EarthLife
transparent
and open
and breezy free with God’s inclusive hope.

Out to play
and pray
this day
and month
and vacation
and re-creation
will never end

Or end,
if time must continue,
in moonlit radiant peace,
night dreams
of asking into perfect Sabbath.

To the DNC

Do not waste this rhetorical and climatic moment

on redundantly telling us what we already know:

Trumpism is not healthy democracy.

Please do invest this convening

in exploratory dialogue reminding us

of what we already love:

Patriotism is about wealthy EarthHealth

of green cooperative democracy.

Cerebral CoOperativism

Capitalism
is an economic strategy
and/or theory
that harbors no inefficient room
for healthy democratic love,
to live or die trying
(and not slowly fade away
not trying)
and for concomitant
co-arising
co-relational
positive correlational
ego/eco-relational
co-passionate
compassionate
wealthy multicultural values.

Cooperativism
is an inclusive incorporating culture,
with an economic systemic plan,
a politically healthy theory
rooted in democratic
and robust multicultural
win/win privileged values.

Expectations of cruel
and unusual win/lose punishment
strategies for fake
disempowering
undemocratic justice
is what runaway cascading capitalists
dream of drowning in
each nightmare night
of winners v losers politics.

Anticipation of kind
and natural/spiritual win/win rewards
for restoring Earth’s healthy green justice
is what cooperativists
wake up to
each co-arising economically buoyant
democratic dawn

Of ecosystemic RightHemisphere rest
prevailing over
anthro-centric LeftHemisphere restlessness
about Yang global
v Yin spinal spiraling
health empowering emphasis
of multiculturally cooperative patriotism
over monoculturing capitalist fealty.

From What I Hear Here

What you hear
may depend on where you sit
to listen.

What our left hemispheres hear
as cross-pollinating,
redundant,
occasionally manic strings
of inbred analogy,

Between physical and metaphysical
between secular and sacred
between ecological power
and theological light
correlational relationships

Our right hemispheres
see and feel
as polypathic
polyphonic
polyvagal
bilateral metaphor

Polynomial entertaining truths
for symmetrical beauty,

Healthiest stable wealth
is impregnably fluid safety.

Brown Spotted Cancers

Cancerous capitalism
predative patriarchalism,
insists on runaway win/lose competitions
against EarthMother’s resilient health
and matriarchally resonant wealth

To fearlessly look
into mirrored medicine cabinets
noticing untherapeutic time’s inevitable one way
passive to active direction,

Erection of lines written
and rewritten
into this moment
of waving wonder
how resiliently limned health
reflects awesome nutritional resonance
of discontinuous assymetricl deviance
cognitive dissonance
waving
weaving toward affective rooted absence
of anticipated confluence,

Like bumps
lumps
wrinkles
mountains and valleys
of emergent theologically grand minds
in aging
ancient ecologically small organic bodies

Imagining climate pathological end
of healthy living green/blue Earth
predicted in commencement of cancerous capitalism
written in lines of greedy eyes
and needy ears
for egocentric masculine opportunity,
predative perpetuity.

Agreeing to DisAgree

I have noticed
in negative strong
long feeling settings
a willingness
to accept impatience
to reluctantly embrace tolerance
and Agree to DisAgree.

Yet, to equate this conclusion
with cooperatively
and actively Agreeing to Positively Agree
with anticipation
rather than further win/lose anxiety
would be to overvalue tolerance
and to underestimate
differences between systemic logic
and self-deceiving fallacy.

We do not meet
win/win standards of nonviolently held energy,
powers of positive communication praxis,
by Agreeing to DisAgree,
shrugging
and leaving the dialogue
with win or lose, who knows?
back to hopeless stuckness,
but now further entrenched
in frustrating
increasingly impatient,
look some other way
tolerance

Of a society
too dumb to GoldenRule agree
to act as decent as a healthy family,

And too ignorant
to co-invest in present
and future green integrity.

To believe agreeing to disagree
is sufficient for short-term bridges,
let us be forewarned
agreeing to not yet agree
on reassuring regenerative plans
for healthy green democracy,

Is quite far from cooperative value enhancements
of agreeing to co-passionately agree
we are here together
for all EarthTribe’s health and safety

Multiculturally cooperative
eco-political regenerativity,
revolutionary 20/20
democratic positive energy.

Shocking Senior Chakras

It feels difficult,
and more urgent in advanced single age,
when mind and root dominant chakras,
perhaps highest and deep best,
conspire against heart
and root resonant chakra,

Difficult
to conspire toward short term positive outcomes
such seniority should actively deploy
and then peacefully enjoy

While also entertaining
how to deeply respirate toward long term
resilient incoming
and resonant outgoing relationships
such wise elders
could fluidly compassion

With non-violent communication,
win/win cooperative ecopolitical development
conjoining these places
spaces
traces toward one’s own theological temples

Are another’s inviting ecological
co-relational passion
of mind
and heart
and deep rooting chakras.
