Right Mind Solstice

If Left MindBody is the iconic foot of language
and resolutions,
whether for a new year
or for a new day,
then Right MindBody may emerge an ionic footprint,
syntax for regenerative language
as resonance of positive love feelings
and negative anger and fear and hate and anxiety empathic feelings.

Right mind sees and hears and feels and feeds on individuating Presence,
where Left mind domesticates,
labels,
commodifies,
languages,
lists and catalogs independent Persons.

Right mindbody enters a balancing
holonic
holy threshold boundary
of insane voices
angry about ego’s past,
afraid for both ego and Earth’s future
and for this Universe
as embryonic nest or “heaven”
of Earth,
potentially and therapeutically Beloved
metaphysical,
and Climaxing
physical-natural organic, Heaven on Earth.

Afraid ego will not have sufficient time
to complete our HeavenlyEarth assigned
co-messianic vocation;
but also, doubly,
boundary thresholding

toward loving mutually empathic Presence
of, in, by, through co-relational Present,
co-arising eco-gravitationally systemic regeneration
for our universal
and yet polyculturally uniting-inviting love
of timeless NOW.

Here lies Right mind’s narrow path of empathic Presence,
between fear of fear’s fractured future
and anger’s anvil of past discontent.

Redeemer Howl

Forgive me
for soundly sleeping while you silently weep,
for bold breathing while you belligerently wilt,
for heart beating strong and true
without you and yours,
dust fore-given free.

Challenge us
to never swim without you,
to always win to win rich blues,
love’s lusty inclusion,
heroic trust.

Relent me
for needing to win
on backs aching with loss
for balancing harmonic dross
while children drift to sea
sons and daughters without home
except hunger to live free.

Redeem me
with my up-front birth deposit
within a more nurturent wombing sea,
no choice specific to how I might be,
or not become,
a fairly well-fed lottery ticket
avoiding your draft for violence,
ballistic anger,
seasoning sorrow
for a tomorrow without rational hope
of better than today
or last,
with all those wished-for lasts before,
your chronic path through over-populated messages
that black
and brown
and red
and victimed,
and oppressed,
and unhealthy subliminal suppressed lives do not fucking matter,
poverty trends to eat our young
to digest in tumors of rich fat deposits
before children can leaven hope to ever fly together
through a deeper embracing ecology.

Know me,
your nature’s genetic parasite
afraid of my own absorption
within our regenetic forested wild
while I sleep
to the beat
of a defenseless child
born too soon for time’s enrapture,
born without face
that splatters through dull culture’s consciousness,
no matter
if some grow fatter
while flowers fade
and next year’s seeds cease speaking
within their silo tree,
while others climb her privileged branches
to grow free.

Free me,
from this relentless suboptimizing justice,
for placing lack of empathy
where surplus of antipathy
breathed and smoldered more honestly,
relentlessly burning warrior hearts
in passioned love with eco-we,
reclaiming corporate integrity for ego-me,
free from investing in slow death silence,
quiet laissez-faire mediocrity,
free to live Earth’s incubator nest
of webbing life,
time’s space to be,
letting go of life alone at sea
to invest in fear of death as we
becoming, reconnecting me to echo Earth’s harmonic frequency,
to cosmic jazz-dance solar light of free,
with power to feel your beat as me.

Peaceful Losers

Patching up enslaving hatred is sure to leave some hated aftermath.
How can this be regarded as tolerable,
these interior human natured self-hatred transgenerational aftershocks?
Therefore Wisdom holds the Yang as Loser paradoxical space,
And does not dispossess guilt toward any Winners.
Virtue, like indentured servitude, is for coredemptive patching up;
Violence of enslaving hatred is for assigning Loser guilt.
But, the way of wisdom is partial toward inclusive Winners;
Siding only with coredemptive dispossessive losers
of enslavement, possession, cancerous wealth of entitled self-hatred
and fear of death as loss.

Knock Knock.

Who’s there?

Slave.

Oh, well, first, ummm…Slave whom?
And, second, are you sure you intend to knock
on my front door?

First, Slave Hater.
Second, does that sufficiently answer your question?

No, not really, Slave Hater could be most anyone I’ve ever met;
this really doesn’t help me figure out who you are
knocking on my door
in this eternal moment.

So why don’t you open your door
to answer your own fearful questions
about my Hater identity?

Because anyone I would welcome into my life
would never knock first.

What does that say about your identity?
Who are you,
a 24-7 pit stop
only open for those who have a key to you?

That doesn’t sound quite right,
but perhaps not wrong either.

Well then it sounds like we are a good fit.
I’m Slave Hater,
both not quite right or wrong
for your passive-aggressive locked door
Win-Lose logistical strategy.

Wait a minute,
I didn’t say I’m passive aggressive,
and everybody I know locks their door
to win some safety from losers.

But you do say you are passive-aggressive
in your habitual practice of reminding those around you
of what you did not say or do.
You have less empathy for enslaved losers
than fear of becoming one yourself.
Don’t worry so much about it,
all us losers already know you’re a loser too
and we will feel comforted by learning
that you finally recognize you are one of us self-haters.
It’s OK,
really.
You hope that hanging onto that one last key
in your pocket
means you’re not a total loser.
It does.
OK?
No one intends to dispute that,
at least no one you are ever likely to meet
to know and learn to love,
as long as you totally invest in that last sole-Winner key.

Patching up a great hatred
is sure to leave some hatred outside
and behind,
downstream for future struggling memories
dreams
and generations.

Sustainable Hiber-Nation?

Not sure who said this,

in reference to social change and perhaps evolution,

“We can’t be neutral on a moving train.”

 

And yet, we often do retain our natural systemic balance on spinning Earth.

Our gravitational center adjusts to Earth’s flowing magnetic

radiant, attracting, spinning in and out,

folding in and out plasmatic memory functions.

Usually these adjustments follow autonomic natural rhythmic laws

of precessive, then fully engorged lungs and hearts and cells and minds,

then diastolic flow back down and in and back toward dark purgative stasis,

before this ecological fractal cycle regenerates Earth’s nuclear recycling

ReGenesis Codex,

our Common Ground of Becoming.

 

Rational optimizing of polyculturally equitable relationships

between our study and praxis of economics and ecological life

emerges as a richly meaningful relationship

between a horse and a HorseWhispering Logos,

predicating what s/he would most appreciate,

bi-relational value optimization within their humane-horsepowered

ecological running system.

 

Our natural Left-brained deductive economic values

long to belong within

our eco-natured Right-brained intuitive ecological boundaries

of inclusively Golden rationality

within universal information flows and functions,

primal relationship of balanced space and time,

where Polynomial Positive Yang-Explicating Space

equals Time-Reversed PrimeFunctioned Square

Zeroistic +/-(-Bi-nomial) Balanced Yang/Yin Metric Place.

 

Functional informative flow,

unfolds to synergetically cooperate and fuse

organically and thermodynamically animated power systems,

rather than burning energy and resources

to break them apart

and overheat them

and dissolve them,

and kill them.

 

Each day my cells and systems

burn more than grow rich subtlety together,

we look toward winter’s hibernation

with Elder hope for Spring’s Transgeneration.

Therapeutic Theory of Positive Psychology

Teleology: a symbiotically balanced intersection between past meaning and future’s purposive and systemic intent. Also known as karma in Eastern traditions and Deep Ecology or grace in more Western-rooted traditions.

 

Balanced teleological cognitive systems are culturally accepted as both positive and therapeutic. Teleological Therapy incorporates integral, feminist, and multisystemic dynamics. Caregivers mentor gratitude for invitations to step into radically empathic attendance with people in stress, asking for help with identity, communication, and/or vocational issues.

Radical empathy, or profound pathic mutual-affective centering, requires active hope that all messages received from Other (environment) are positively functional; that is, noise and fear and apathy and confusion and chaos are important teachers pointing in the opposite direction when thinking about what Win-Win strategies could minimize dissonance while enhancing confluence.

The despair of a child encourages us to regenerate hope through positive environments and culture, the communal experience of hope, shared.

The shrieking noise of our human species industriously and systematically raping our home, our Commons, our Earth, suggests it may be time to break out a PermaCulture Party, with integral multisystemic therapeutic intent.

Dry Tears

Your suffocated dry suffering tears

trail crusty crystals

toward your waiting ears

and mine

resounding through empathic mind

wondering where tracks end,

back through billowing mountains ranging

star dust trail of time,

remerging toward jet-black lustrous whirling pupil

learning and longing to belong

within your cresting crystal trail

of crusted suffering tears,

absolving them away.
