Gods of Power

If God
and gods
and other paternal powers
resource love,
and not hate

And if we believe
that love fades
with encroaching fear

Faith strong rooted
in personal
and professional
and economic
and local
through global
trauma experience

And if god
and great paternal rulers
and warriors
and heroes
are free of Loser fear

If straight white paternal privilege
felt more free to grow omnipotently capable
of unconditional multicultural regard
for EarthTribe’s surviving health
and regenerating wealth
and recreated Earth thrival

Then it seems likely to me
that victims,
self-victimized
and/or other-victimized,
of and for addiction
loss
pain
trauma
chronic stress
poverty
disempowerment
incapacity of reliable health care
for all EarthTribes,

Victims of LeftBrain patriarchal education,
parenting by verbal and physical domination,
preaching by intimidation and shaming,

Victims of peers
siblings
and professional colleagues
for punishing and mutual blaming,
escalating mis- and dis-communication

Miss out on bicameral deep sacred learning,
parenting by safe and healthy cooperation,
preaching by mentoring and listening,
peers for healing mutual mediation
and panentheistic re-framing
opportunities for compassion’s integral redaction
of sacred EarthJustice HerStory

Understoried womb
of soulful nutritional
nurturing EarthMother
regenerating ecopolitical soil,
seeds,
nuts,
polyculturing eggs

These are all potent Paternity’s most sacred
loving
engaging
co-redemptive
co-invested opportunities
for expanding mindfulness,
consciousness,
enlightened co-empathic empowerment

Free of chronic fear
angered by traumatic
patriarchal inhumanity
severance
apartheid
dissociation
imprisonment
enslavement
excommunication
marginalization
disinvestment.

Here lies sacred curiosity
to replace
win/lose aggressions
with courage to embrace
win/win
health is social wealth
naturally spirited impressions.

Fathers of communication
and learning problems
engaging compassionate
nonviolent opportunities
to expand emergent win/win resilience.

Fearless, unconditionally loving
gods
and lesser rulers
most sacredly informing
therapies for trauma,
chronic stress,
fear,
anger,
self-rabid righteousness

Anthrosupremacist narcissism,
lust for monopolies
of secularized,
capitalized Paternalistic
monotheistic
unrealistic over-powers
expensively waged against

Peacemaking unconditional regard
of fearless
flawless
ominipotently omnipresent
omnisciently panentheistic
polyculturally healthy
emotion intelligence

Nonviolent communications,
restoring free freedom
to restory
patriarchal traditions
militarized punishing injustice systems

With monocultural tendencies
monotheistic theologies
monopolistic
traumatized
neglected and abused ecologies,
eco-matricide

But, if God
and gods
and other paternal powers
resource love,
and not hate

And if we believe
that love fades
with encroaching fear

We might also trust
that loves grows more resilient
with cooperative win/win
intent to democratically
and globally initiate
create
recreate
omnipotently mindful
trauma-informed
resonantly sacred
communionation

Courageous teachers
who remain curious students,
Enlightened parents
who remain win/win empowered children,
Rulers
who remain cooperative co-governors,
Patriarchs
who remain resiliently co-invested
ecofeminists,

Messianic heroes
who repair local trauma
with bodhisattva global reinvestment
in peace

Conservative paternalists
restoring green climate justice,
fearlessly engaging omnipotent integrity
of curiosity’s copious compassion

On sacred land
and sensate seas
where kindness
and mindfulness
are free
of fear
and anger,
trauma
and chronic stress,
which cost everyone

Including omnipotent God
and monopolistic corporate gods
and the lesser patriarchs
of scriptured history
exploring integrity,
most therapeutically sacred

Natural manly health
is also spiritual goddess EarthWealth,
co-passionate
spiraling
bipartisan communal potential.

Together Will We Part

Cells work is play
to resiliently thrive
only in organic systems.

Individual yolked cells
each with her own ego-governor
survive healthy together
and divide tragically apart

More like symbiotic regenerations
of surfing cantilevers
than degenerations
outside predations
storming waves
recolonizing cancers.

Transgendering
transubstantiating
transitions can be both

Too hard on ego yolks
and too soft for ecobodies
become some One boundaried else
while too soon severing
into not yet Zero

Sacrificed for tomorrow’s
unconditional regard
organically in-between
One secular EgoZone
and not yet Zero sacred
systemic EarthTribe soul

Remembering past memories
mindful of mind-cell fullness
side by side solidarity
re-imaging severed cells

Crests of history’s
great transitioning wave
from individual hot burning stars
to seas of cold
dead
dry dust

Awaiting wetter rust
for light and power
to co-arise
more resilient lust

Inside crusts
of ego loving centers
and their living eco-kin
becoming back and forth,
together and apart
again

Enlightenment
and death,
empowering cantilevers
losing out to expatriating cancers

Co-invested
ego risks of past power
and eco loss of future opportunities

Individuating
systems for regeneration
and recycling seasons
of privation

Therapy
and trauma,
health
and pathology

Unconditional regard
and conditioned
hardening cells
of disregard

For innocent Othered cells
whose work is also play
to resiliently thrive

Only in organic systems
unconditionally regarding
this enlightened
empowering day

Swings of Yang bright light
empowering Yin’s eternal sway.

Growing Healthier Hopes

For measuring fleeting successes
of punishing policing justice,
we have overly relied on recidivism rates
in response to curiosity about
How to decrease crime.

For enjoying compassion
of restorative
healing justice,
we rely on win/win mediation
to grow deep resonance
and widely resilient integrity

In response to curiosity about
How to increase health
and safety
and happiness
locally egotherapeutic
and globally ecotherapeutic.

Retributive justice
fails a healthy and safe
wellness society
as it continues to punish
and excommunicate wounded
win/lose damaged criminals.

Meanwhile
community-based visions
for restoring wellbeing
equity
justice
become increasingly effective
and resilient
as parents
and teachers
and leaders
shift our victimization focus
from CRIMES, violent and/or financial,
to healing victims of TRAUMA

Personal
and systemic,
political
and economic,
locally genocidal
and globally ecocidal.

Self Regard

Opportunities to rest
in unconditional self-regard
also present risks
of unmitigated narcissism.

While self-respect
is a prerequisite
for pursuing resonant win/win integrity’s
full bodied potential savor
flavor
favor

MeWe co-passion
for EgoSelf
as also part of
sacred EcoOther
co-arises global
unconditional regard
for healthy life
over harmful death
and all conscious
curious creatures
in-between Alpha
and Omega
great transitions.

Ego wealth of self/other compassion
values love
above all else,
although perhaps more could be said
for an unconditionally regarded
sense of humor,

Ego/EcoSystemic joyful
resilient compassion
remains cooperatively therapeutic
powering through competitive
narcissistic trauma histories

Of win/lose closeted
micro-aggressions
miscommunicating
what was originally intended
to express warm unconditional regard
for oneself
as part of cherished Other

Dipolar
(not bipolar)
co-arising regard
co-gravitating toward
a shared sense of healthy humor

Which is a loving fruit
of the Holy Spirit
the serious narcissist lacks
in his dominating patriarchal
capitalist
anthrosupremacist
EarthView

Of unconditional
LeftBrain prominently learned
disregard
for empowering cooperatively curious
and warm
and enlightened joyful
bipartisan co-relationships

Loving
open
transparent
vulnerable
non-judgmental
means compassionate
unconditional Me-and-We
integrally cooperative regard.

Lessons Partially Learned

Parents
and teachers,
economic program
and social service leaders,
government administrators
and legislators,
listen up
and downstream

We too often act
and feel
the reverse is more quickly
and convenient
through rigid control,
or at least should
or could
or would like to be enlightened true
more than disempowering false:

Empowering cooperative ownership
arrives slowly
but resonantly
and more resiliently
through enlightened cooperative management
experience
and win/win resonant tenure

And not so much the other
entitled
and self-righteous
stress
and vindictive trauma
competitive way around
treading heavy capitalism’s survival
of the wealthiest
defeating thrival
of our healthiest
trusted ways abound
to cooperatively manage peace
that we would justly hope
to EarthTribe own
into safest perpetuity

A trusted indigenous wisdom franchise
to retrain
and re-educate parents
and teachers,
empower economic programs
and enlighten social service leaders,
self-governing cooperative administrators
and legislators,
listening up
and downstream
for cooperative management systems
supporting lives never autonomously owned
and always sacredly zoned
for interdependent trust

Empowering cooperative management
systems
for enlightened cooperative
organic network peace
and restorative justice
building
inviting
engaging
immersion

In win/win joyful play
all night
and day.

Respect for Integrity

A competitive path,
society v individual,
to retributive justice
is measured in accountability
of the individual
to respect
the imposed justice system.

More cooperative polypaths,
individual Me AND social We,
to restoring Ego/EcoJustice
are measured in collective integrity

Polynomially
and/or polytheistically balancing
healthy positive energy
slow-growing resilient plants
people
planet

Throughout co-operative
space AND time now
past AND future
health AND safety
natural AND spiritual
physical AND mental metaphysical
regenerations of

Cooperative polypaths
destined to restore Ego/EcoJustice
co-mediating secular/sacred
new age dawning
old school fawning
creolizing integrity

Is definitely not
colonizing
ostracizing
and punishing.

Resilient peace
is not achieved
through dissociative punishment

Traumatic autonomous accountability events
do not have therapeutic outcomes
measured in Earth’s emergent integrity

Because,
as any gang
or tribe member knows,
trauma of past victimization
does not predict
a future of multiculturally
polyculturally inclusive
therapy

Because pathological governance
from predators above
is not resilient health
for those preyed upon
praying for natural
nurturing
nutritional compassion
below

Because systemic trauma
is not therapeutic
Because pathology
is not health
or integral wealth.

From Vicious to Virtuous

The circling
spiraling
revolving nature of Earth
is to spiritedly change
through seasons of light and dark
spaces emergent
and recessive
times and seasons

And the aging nature
of LeftBrain spirited people
to resist change
aging
the unknown
noisy risks of trauma
abuse
emotional neglect

And to further resist
restrain
strain against
the awkward
the embarrassing
the humiliating
shaming
blaming
judged an anti-social health risk
safety risk
moral behavioral risk
anger and violence risk.

Thank Gaia
for pushy green cooperative
co-governing ecofeminist

Recreating polytheistic sacred myths
matriarchal sabath legends
medicine women
wise old women
domestic economic circles
nonzero open wholistic sensory-neural

Wounded World

I’ve seen Earth’s epitaph:
S/He did more than Her share
to heal a broken world

Which sometimes seems to invoke anger
because I can touch what’s broken
and other times provoke merely sad
because I can only feel inside
who is also wounded

Earth’s living magic,
watered fertile soil,
red-blooded organic
green clean soul
is not broken
like a worn-out clock
or formerly animated toy
or obsolescent urban block
now gone inevitably bad.

EarthTribe is not so much broken
as win/lose perpetually wounded
Paradise Lost
for our lapse
of good-humored Golden Rules
win/win re-found
happy healthy bodhisattva
rebound.

What is already broken
requires outside messianic agency,
too objectively disabled
to stimulate subjective healing salvation,
personally feeling better

Emergent internally vital
growing positively viral,
stealing from toxic claustrophobic disarray,
tomorrow’s voices redeemed
by choices erupting therapeutic promise
today.

Organic wounds,
unlike mechanical brokenness,
give internal notice
warnings of disenabling trauma
also enable therapeutic opportunity
to pull and push risk,
to massage and stretch ambiguous feelings
touching each Other’s sinews
and straps,
moral lapse,
dancing mental songs
and embodied raps

Filling in our anti-social lapse
our monoculturing elapse
of warm
and wet
and wild compassion,
integrity’s redemptive fashion.

Brokenness shrouds despair
alone
where wounds invite
our active healthy care
together happiness vocationed
for EarthTribe’s ecstatic day
by faithful contenting way
inclusively inviting
inspirational repair
with those who dare
to share Earth’s communal difference
to heal this wounded world.

Treasuring the Educator

A former friend of mine
tricked me into becoming
something I am not

The volunteer President
of our condo association,
a position I clearly cannot afford
midst trifling disassociations.

We were starting our Autumn tradition
of arguing about next year’s budget
which typically continues
until we recommend something utterly preposterous
to our membership
which they will certify
remains inevitably inept
and fail to ratify.

As usual
I had brought my manicure
and pedicure kit
and was just starting to work on my nails
when I noticed our Treasurer
became more animated
whittling his thick stick
as he became more concerned
about what residents are losing

More than interested
in what resilience we all might gain
by cooperatively discussing
what we hoped to win
by remaining together to complain
rather than lose
by fostering further
whittled down polarization,
debate,
predative Patriarchal Capitalist
zero-sum economic games
not for the faint hearted to explain
and weak-nailed to refrain,
furthering our political apartheid
without EarthJustice
therapeutic rebate

Our parsimonious Treasurer
operates from a presumed strategic position
of holding Aces
in all four empowered
and enlightened suites,
empirical voices,
win/lose trumping win/win choices:

  1. Legal institutional document authority
    which provokes a yawn,
  2. Political membership voting power
    with an 88 to 5 majority
    on his oppressive side,
  3. Economic responsibility
    to our tax and fee paying majority
    with neglected cuticles, and
  4. social-cultural expectations
    for rational
    Straight White Male privileged
    self-interested
    capitalist business behaviors
    like playing golf
    and paying lap dancers
    to do what I would gladly do for free
    if I could avoid these dreadful
    defeating meetings.

While switching to my feet,
I also noticed
our tax-payer responsible Educator
vigorously responded
while vehemently knitting two
and furiously purling three

She moves away from
prior win/win positions
favoring therapeutic strategies
when she votes against
a loan for beat-down residents
to fix our leaky
crumbling corporate problems

Rather than abstaining
because now,
unlike last week,
she has become unclear
about whom
and possibly why
the Treasurer
and the Accountant
and the Bookkeeper
will debit just the 88 Residents
or the 5-vote School
for improvements
exclusive to the residential side
of our sadly governing equation.

I also notice
our scarf-knitting Educator
has moved away from supporting
a win/win trade formerly championed:
White Mansion for the School
and Glass Factory for the Residents

Now she contests this even-steven
to invest in another strategic competition,
win/lose backpedaling,
now claiming disproportionate future values
for bargaining,
debate positioning,
repolarizing
while she rips out yet another ribbing row,
another year too ripped off
not grow

Perhaps,
one day in our dismal future
we will see where this might go

More cooperatively thawing
drawing toward win/win center
for indigenous sacred wisdom values:

  1. licit equity of whittling natures
    and knitting medicine spirits,
  2. politically crafted co-empathy,
  3. economic health-nailed co-investments, and
  4. socially therapeutic
    restorative justice
    favoring win/win strategic right
    and left-handed
    and footed
    health is polyculturing wealth
    communication

Because clearly this night
we are not having our best
multicultural non-fright
cooperative mediation
of momentary delight

Wherein we retain well-manicured focus
on what we anticipate
moving forward more beautifully together
rather than lost in whittled down anxiety
about what we will never support

For lack of egocentric
anthropocentric
monotheistic
monocultural predative gain

As our corporate Treasurer’s win/lose strategy
to some better deferred peace day
EarthJustice regain
without all our polarizing
hocus pocus

To retain a more regenerative win/win wedding
less autonomously win/lose divorced

More cooperatively
and therapeutically discussed
of course
while I re-examine my left pinky
with absent minded disgust

About a now former friend of mine
who tricked me into becoming
some hang-nailed treatment
I am not.
