Black Is Not His Property

I wake up with a great startle.

My CoOperative EarthVillage Dream
was merely winter’s hibernation.

I dreamed we share richly valued properties
from health-wealthy African Elders;
but awake, once again,
only to painfully remember
I am now again
expected to pretend
I am merely His disvalued property.

I have become enslaved
by His addictions to LeftBrain male supremacy,
entitlement to compete,
not for Win or Lose survival,
but, now, more ultimately and climatically,
for His self-aggrandizing approval
of Western White malicious thrival.

Caste privilege to commodify others,
to colonize us domesticated Loser Also Rans,
by raising barbed wire electric fences,
fueled with depleting oil and coal
and formerly healthy soil and souls
and air and water,
now recombining toward His Perfect Narcissistic Storm

His degenerate
hate-producing Lose/Lose
dual dark Plantation,
environmental and democratic health
eradication.

Not everyone needs cotton,
His MAGA forces recognize,
but every mindbody can consume and reproduce hate.

Hate sells and weaponizes native potential
anxious feeling Elder RightBrain’s
wealth of love
anticipating healthy life properties,
cooperatively owned and held and shared and transacted
WinLeft-WinRight bicameral MindBodies.

I painfully wake up this way,
mere property of Him,
when I can still remember
Gaia’s dusk drenched
dream of trust

Sharing cooperative cultured integrity,
properties of darkly remembered Elders,
nurturing brown-skinned Earth Mammas
singing rich contralto Exodus and ReGenesis
WinLove/WinLife full-harmonic
GoodNews anthems.

We shall overcome,
with love of these same shared Elder properties,
what He would capture and enslave
as hate like Him,
as ManHood mandated hypocrisy,
abortive absence of creative integrity

Sacred dawn of dreams
conserving Earth’s perennial climate of gratitude
for Elder animistic health-wealth properties,
refused by His abortion of active hope

His confused irreligious caste Winners
never lose monotheistic strategies
furthering powers to own me

Through His self-addicted
self-condemning
self-excommunicating
self-impeaching
LeftBrain toxic AnthroMale Supremacy
defying a new cooperative dawn
of SageMind/MuseBody indigenous integrity

LeftDeductive/RightInductive
liberated body pleasure
to conserve mind passion
for progressive climates
of deeply democratic therapy

Addressing His demented manly needs
to reduce and disappear sacred lives
reduced to produce His adoring minions,
by my reweaving morning’s freedom
to free Him and me to love
how we both cooperatively share
our AfricanElder’s EarthMother health
through wealthy fertile properties.

God bless his StraightWhite Master shrinking heart.
He’s doing his LeftBrain Monotheistic best
to keep all His selfish ego-conserving slaves apart
for fear we could remember
history’s compassionate off and on-line
cobinary Crown/Root shock-free
Tree of sacred/organic
love/life
enlightened/empowering potential

To sing our love songs
and dance EarthGaia’s rhythmic praise
of circling pleasures
so African motherland peaceful

Richly fertile win/win roots
engaging MotherTree’s crown/root
ego/ecosystemic chakras
co-redeeming grace.

No one shrinking heart
of fear-mangled right-brained Suppression
could build sufficient firewalls feeding confusion
and propaganda nightmares
fast enough to contain love’s viral tsunami
of peaceful EarthTribe’s prehistoric dawns

CoPassionate,
healthy Left/Right balancing
Crown/Root regenerating
Wealth/Health cobinary
democratic resolutions.

This Paradise Plantation,
unlike His other privately-held corporations,
is cooperatively owned and administered
by all Earth’s Tribes,
former animistic slaves
of anthropocentric AlphaMale colonialism

My time and space to stretch up and out
rehearsing OrganicHealth/SacredWealth grappling dawn
of Let My EarthPeople Go
through WinBody/WinMind-passionate responsibility,
EarthClimate mothering
mutual-help creolizing
cooperative Muse circles

As sung through dark-skinned
thick black-haired protective centuries
by Gaian and Hawaiian
dawn and dusk dancing
EarthLovers

Waking up with a great startle.

Pillow Talk

Who died
and made Father God
the Evangelical White Nationalist Law
of Patriarchal MAGA Privilege?

Well, dear, that was Jesus of Nazareth,
your Messiah of compassionate health trends,
remember?

Right,
OK, so,
in my heroic religious narrative,
we are the purest,
most right,
oldest orthodox unchanging Words of Jesus’ corporate reincarnation

Avatars of God the Homophobic Conservative Father.
My vocation,
and your true Jesus-given MindBody of Christ vocation,
is to transubstantiate humane spiritual integrity
within Love’s natural health and wealth potentialities.

That sounds mostly confusing to me,
and are you speaking of Love’s multicultural integrity
or monocultural preserving potential?

We are the Body of Christ’s most fertile purity
anthropocentrically unique
Holy Spirited for divine trust,
passionately strong
within Earth’s organic
regenetic polyculturing evolution.

Honey, is this supposed to be turning me on?
Because it’s not working.
Too many words.
No rhythm,
much less rhyme
and pleasure’s reason.

On and in and around my ageing MindBody of Christ,
co-inhabited with those arrived and gone before,
and those to follow,
polypaths toward increasing peace-fulfilled integrity.

Is this where we finally approach
Alpha and Omega climax?

Prior to the Body of Christ’s presence,
and still to this day,
Earth’s naturally spirited progressions
through forested
and oceanic
and atmospheric
healthy climates,
becoming human bio- and eco-systemic
passion and pleasure.
Then, more recently, Western monotheistic
and Eastern animistic
co-arising together
consecrate bicameral ecology
of wealth’s pleasure potential.

Love’s eco-therapeutic Body of Christ embers
of embryonic Creation
with messianic understories
prehistoric
Now increasingly matriarchal
herstoric
coitally reconnected with His Patriarchal Body,
conserving purity of Christ’s Original Intent.

We, Conservational CoMessiahs,
regardless of class or race or gender or nation,
would not naturally or spiritually choose monocultural purity of MindBody
over polyculturally organic BodyMind,
but search instead for purest loyalty
to following wherever Christ’s co-empathic integrity
of polypathic-nurturing love
leads toward liberating us from self v other degeneration
of unhealthy bio-eco systems.

Here, only, lies time invested embodying Christ’s Original Intent
more than merely competitively spent,
exhausted in Win or Lose unredemptive gamesmanship;
exhausting monoculturing climates
of overheated anthropocentric
quasi-independent hypocrisy–
as if this peculiar Nation of Christ’s Body
could better make it patriotically alone,
playing an internally cancerous
nihilistic
terrorizing and fearmongering,
condemning and disingenuously pathological game
of climate warming chicken.

We either live and die together as One MindBody of Earth’s Christ,
or we die by living too desecrated
dissociated
decomposing
degenerative nationalist apartheid.

Purest MindBody of Christ could never become fully synergetic
with merely human nature;
sacred EarthNature integrates all God the Father’s living systems
until disintegrating into decomposing no-growth,
former fertile systems.

No coherent
rational
healthy Body of Christ organic system could long lack,
or survive de-valuing co-empathically trusting integrity.
And, no system,
regardless of how loyal to its own MindBody of Christ virginal chastity of good faith,
could thereby regeneratively thwart emerging degenerative MAGA potential,
seeds of our own too purely autonomous
monoculturing
AntiBody of Christ
degenerating EarthClimate destruction.

Could we have Body of Christ robust forests,
with interdependent nutritional root systems,
without Earth’s therapeutic surfing oceans?

Oceans,
without sacred atmosphere?
Holy Spirit of Christ’s HealthyWealthy Climates,
without AnthroMind/EarthBody
economic and political compassion
nurturing trust in organic Love systems?

No more could we have humane MindBody of Christ nature
without Earth’s sacred animistic ecology,
birthplace of Christ’s organically passionate reason.

Now you’re reconnecting my favorite pleasure part.
Let’s go for a long walk outside.
Listen to the birds and the wind,
the ocean and the trees,
watch for clouds,
look for stars and moon light.

I see you and want whom I see.
Time to clear our MindBody of Christ neurosensory palette?

Time to watch for natural light,
and listen to spiritual powers,
other forms and sounds and hues
and enraptured cries,
liturgies of passionate pleasure’s worship.

To Sexual CareGivers and Receivers

We all at least aspire to become adeptly fulfilled
care givers and care receivers,
as these two directions prefer becoming mutually symbiotic

To give care is neither spiritually better
nor naturally worse
than to receive,
as robustly healthy care giving is also resilient receiving–
these interactions mutually enriching each other;
growing healthy love,
evaporating unhealthy hate
and apathy.

The best care giving comes out of,
and returns toward,
love and nurturance,
not merely the exterior forms of discipline,
enduring negative emotions
and troubling thoughts of feeding tolerance
rather than intolerance

Love sublimes beat down apathy,
often with humor at our own mindfully deep learning expense

An investment in curiosity,
looking even deeper at this person’s compassionate
and dispassionate,
pleasing
and unpleasing relationships
in this time of potential healing

Learning to share Basic Compassionate Attendance
in organic life’s natural animistic spirit
of verbally vulnerable passions
and nonverbally transparent pleasures
transforming trauma-receiving communications
into therapy-giving communion.

Put another more neurosystemic way,
health care professional training has invested in
defensive attorneys
and insurance bottom-line profit-seeking,
risk-management corporations,
to articulate how to preserve one’s autonomous self,
one’s expert practice,
one’s authoritative relationships,
from inappropriate touch and language,
micro-aggressive behavior.

This is not a bad thing in our capital-hoarding economy,
threatening a scarcity of all lives matter

And yet, solely nursing win v lose monopoly games
is a less compelling choice
compared to organic life’s WinEgo/WinEco-opportunity
for both esteem giving to Other
and esteem receiving for Self

Which is all about how to therapeutically touch and feel
speak and listen
maturing compassion’s pleasing
therapeutic communication

Both strict caste-preservers
and liberated caste-abolishers can agree
our GoldenRule care giving/receiving win/win journey,
within organic EarthTribe’s associative v dissociative Anthropocene climate,
is how we further evolve together
toward optimizing healthy love communication

Compassion giving becomes pleasure receiving,
communicating with hands and feet
mouth and ears
investing sacredly cooperative
polyamorous trust.

As this conversion
away from monoculturing anthropocentrism occurs
and re-occurs
and holistically concurs,
then life-care becomes all about WinMe/WinWe optimizing
unconditionally warm
touch and feel responsive
responsible neurosensory communion.

When we have,
as an anthropocentric species,
too long-term triggering issues of inappropriate touch
and insignificant feelings,
these become historical artifacts
of a prior benighted polarization,
a former toxic age
and tragic stage
and disassociative life

Our Holy Nature/Spirit
non-LeftBrain dominant indigenous Elders
would not wish us to remain dispassionately
and unpleasantly stuck outside
life-caring Us
better together
than falling apart

Making great grandchildren
of all Earth’s organic species
yet again
this care-giving caste
care receiving re-caste
sacred communion day.

Pronoia HealthCare Final

Brezsny in PRONOIA quotes:

“Bestow a blessing on a person you’ve considered to be beneath you
or alien to you.”

Donald, may your future communications engage deeper ecological listening
and more widely embrace
democratically cooperative economicl learning

“Who and what will you pray for as you’re making love?”

What: For this to never end
Who: For whom we are erotically becoming together
in this eternal moment’s flow of agapic Earth’s
pronoia becoming.

“May you get what you want and still want it”

May you gain integrity you feel you need
and also gain what you authentically want
for all of us.

BiLateral ConVexing Systemic Formations.

“Give examples to illustrate the differences between dumb, trivial pleasure
and smart, life-exalting pleasure.”

Passive perception of performance-oriented entertainments v Actively cooperative play and win/win co-engaging exchanges. Less autocratic solo performances; more democratic group sing alongs.

“Arguments with God is the only organization on the planet that specializes in the art of debating with the Creator. Our trained Prayer Warriors are standing by, ready to deliver the protests and complaints that you want to convey…. Write your first draft here.”

Hey! Straight White Patriarchal God!
Why not come out of your transgenderal organisms of all Earth colors
Matriarchal Goddess Closet?

“A dissident wing of the Beauty and Truth Lab (the “Uproaries”) defines happiness as
‘the state of mind that results from cultivating interesting, useful problems.’
See if you can make that definition work for you.”

AT EROTIC ROOT RISK: PolyVagal power of Win/Win CoPleasing Communication
REDEFINE AGAPIC CROWN OPPORTUNITY: PolyTheistic light of NotWin and NotLose compassionate caste-abolishing sacred communion

“Do something that you will remember with pride and passion until the end of your days. Report your results here.”

Successfully defending, even cooperatively singing and dancing
while cooperatively writing our political theosophy,
entitled Our PolyVagal Designers’ Opera,
erotically written in agapic inter-religious libretto.

“Tell about the moment you finally realized who exactly you are–
or imagine the time you’ll do so in the future.”

In this eternal moment
I am transubstantiating this transgenderal manifestation
polyvagally win/win polyculturing neuro/ecological regenesis;
so my budda-sattvaness is also our indigenous eco-sattva,
now in a bit of an anthro-partisan mess.

“‘Each person is a story that the Soul of the World wants to tell to itself,’
says Michael Meade.
What does the Soul of the World want to say through you?”

We are our multiculturally ecological developing world,
cooperating at and into our best Golden Rule outcome performances
within a Polyculture Designing Opera
of collective pro-recreation indigenous stories,
where panentheistic deeper
is also monotheistic richer
and more erotic/agapic ecological
crown/root
win/win
mind/body yummy.

HealthCare evolution is about WinAnthro/WinEarthTribe revolution;
not a caste-preserving sacred crown v organic root theory
of sacred thrival and revival
through organic denial and repression
of desecrating devolution.

Life Through A Thousand Deaths

Here empowering life waits
with a thousand little discontinuous unenlightened deaths,
caste again,
right here in The Evolving Self’s sixth principle
of preferable options for more humane evolution
revolutions lurking behind Mihaly Csikzentmihalyi’s
positive re-ligious integrity
is at least not negative irreligiously disintegrating
neuro-sexsensory health caring psychology.

I had seen EarthMother’s compassion
rebirthing love of cooperatively-held life
when he began by rooting around
in primally co-arising principles of thermodynamics.

The second Yang-negative principle of monocultural hubris,
dissociative limbo
somewhere between remembering contentious defeat
and promising contented repeat
with Yintegral positive
as first open universal synergy principle
toward abundantly unitarian life-system flow.

Every organic tribe tends to share bio-neurosystemic shape
sense enhanced for cooperative fertility,
crowning dialectical DNA
on back through root systemic RNA
resonantly symbiotic passions
for healthy organic pleasures,
fractally unfolding
good faith rooting designs

Monotheistically crowning
emphatically inspiring
future healthy organic clans
living within Earth’s erotic pantheistic wilderness
of deeply rooted spiritual ecstasy

Engaging symbiotic networks
of communing nature
co-informating healthy EarthPeace ecological rights,
dis-integrating anthropocentric caste-preserving wrongs
of Yangish monotheistic monopolizing
GodThesis v GaiaHypothesis excess
of sacred mind over-casting systemic trauma
against under-caste organic matter.

This first synergetic rebalancing principle,
resolving around and in and through
our 4D body-space/mind-time universe
emerges Win/Win when Yin-squared equals positive
not negative Yang
wu-wei cooperative equity, of dual-caste course,
but much more erotically symbiotic,
crown/root cobinary chakra symbiotic
resilient integrity

+(+) = 0-Yintegrity = -(-1)Yang Identity
erotically engaging body = emphatically authentic mind
ecological powers = anthro-logical light
EarthMother’s pantheistic pleasure = SunFather’s monotheistic passion

CoBinary nondualistic organic/sacred systems
inter-communing nature/spirit
regenerative Golden Rule co-empathic
caste-abolishing intent

Reiteratively polyculturing
resonantly octaved
double-fractal DNA/RNA co-gravitation
multigenerations of positive co-relations
between elder RNA seminal sacred memories
of resonantly peaceful ecological experience
projecting future DNA health and safety assurance

Navigating in-between risks and opportunities
of organically healthy Earth wildness life
where YangLeft liberating animus
and
YinRight conserving anima
do our best to make mind-passion/body-pleasure
co-arising love
and not quite so much entropic-trending
upper v lower caste co-aggravating war.

Anyway, back to Mihaly’s sixth dynamic
mistrusted and/or trusted Taoist balancing co-governance,
depending on your paranoia v pronoia predilections,
principle of authentic AnthroMind/EarthBody integrity
Win/Win sacred/organic evolution:

We have two appositional dynamics in our life journey;
Win-health v Lose-pathology potential contention
leading toward Win/Win power-with contented flow,
using cooperative energy resources
to recreate mutually co-present active hope

Yet co-passionate dynamic balance
also risks leading toward further upper/lower caste competitions
powering-over with Win v Lose mistrusts
about Earth’s life v death anthropocentric revolutions

Extracting EarthMother’s energy for monoculturing hubris,
paternalistic patriotic exploitation
of future fear and past angry condemnations,
further starving sapient ego’s potential health
through a thousand deaths and loss and suffering
of entropic maya,
conflicting competitions struggling against further disorder,
rather than struggling with today’s cognitive-affective dissonance
to deep learn ego-ecotherapeutic cobinary care.

It seems perceptually important to believe,
perhaps even to smell and taste and feel
reconnecting past love-line memories
as if implied by first yeasty embryonic experience of self,
that Yintegral flow of cooperative health
could not thrive in total 0-sum absence
of Yang’s darker competitively caste shadow
rememory.

For me,
I have come to see optimally regenerative health
nurturing wise wealth
within Earth’s double-binding bihemispheric spectrum,
between pathology of excessive eco-consumption in my accumulating past
and pathology of excessive ego-energy loss through over-production,
self-abolishing depressions and repressions,
like a bottom-caste life voting for top-caste
Trumping sexploitation.

It proves difficult to summarize
regeneration as a positive inside/outside
cobinary caste
symbiotic ego/eco
Win/Win virtuously dynamic consciousness.

But, at the end of EarthMother’s polypathically multiculturing day,
Climate Health is what we all economically and politically,
ecologically and analogically want.

EarthRights (not so much Yangish irreligious Wrongs)
are what we recognize as nutritionally positive health,
while climate pathologies are Left v Right
liberal mind v conserving body
enlightening v empowering extremes
both inside ego-capital positively identified
and caste aside eco-homebody not negatively identified,
Ego-equity/Eco-integrity
wu-wei nondualistic
indigenously mindful feelings

Continuous EarthMother re-ligious life
powering through a thousand discontinuous SunFather deaths
resurrecting ego/eco dual-caste
transformative consciousness.

Solomon’s Question

Solomon,
hate to disturb you
but I have a question.
If I could grant you only one deepest love wish
for what you would achieve as your greatest strength
which virtue would you choose?

Well, thanks.
Great question.
Do we have such powers? I wonder.
What have others asked for?
Information about popular precedents,
including old age resilient outcomes,
could be helpful.

Some of the more popular gift requests
you already have covered,
in large part by being born into wealthy royalty,
but also endowed with those tall,
dark,
and handsome genes,
and your unusually resonant internal strengths
that will sustain your exterior beauty.

Top requests
include unilateral power over others,
to get one’s most effective
and efficient controlling way.

Then there is also unitarian power with others,
to invite our most authentic
inclusively cooperative compassionate way,
more popular with unstraight
unwhite
unmale polyamorous transgendered
human sapients.

Then there are requests for fame,
although these seldom, if ever,
seem to arrive as requests for love of fame,
suggesting some confusion between virtuous values
and vicious disvalues

Committing minds with bodies to fame’s opportunities
comes with traumatizing risks of vicious infamy,
emotionally malnourished neglect
and, too often, mind and/or body abuse
of empowered condemning authorities,
habitually threatening to withhold investments
in more positively valued
deep listening
democratically dialectical
powering-with affections.

Choosing wealth of unilateral fame
for a well-knowledged mind,
well-skilled
and bountifully beautied body,
will attract both passionately pleased admirers
and enviously displeased dissenters.

The stronger this public fame
the more concomitant private concerns develop
about personal future infamy,
loss of autocratic altitude,
and, with this chronic anxiety,
a growing sense of merely going through productive motions
without sustaining consumption of passionately engaging emotions,
more associated with greater love of wisdom’s resiliently healthy bodies
with resonantly democratic wealthy minds.

In the older age end, then,
it seems we have no other rational outcome choice
but love of regenerative power-with positive reputation
defending against my lust for power-over negative disputation

Wisdom balancing LeftBrain’s deductive powers
engaging virtuous ecological systems
are also Elder RightBrain’s inductive powers
with analogically co-arising
ecopolitical sapient wisdom.

Do we have such powers?
I remain in sacred wonder,
to engage wisely virtuous organic choices
more democratically empowering together,
rather than more infamously disheveled apart.

TrumPublican Remorse

To USA conservative Christian brothers and sisters,

As I watch and hear and feel our health care
and wealth care resources dwindle,
and predative partisanship grow domestically
and internationally ballistic

I’m bitterly wondering,
on this otherwise sunny autumnal day,
if you feel ANY remorse?

For choosing to unleash
on your own vulnerable children,
your own climate-challenged homeland,
our organically cooperative
and beautiful sacred Earth

This dark,
“vengeance is mine”
spiteful
despotic
greedy
delusional TrumPublican
maladaptive
dysfunctional
irreligious federal administration.

Are you still living lonely
in your evangelical denial
that voting for a transparently
and ludicrously obvious

Anti-loving
Anti-uniting
Anti-peace
Anti-healthcare
Anti-Earthcare agenda

Was the organic Body
and sacred Blood of Christ,
Prince of Peace, informed
re-ligious reviving right
vote to cast?

How do you see your TrumPublican support
as standing with Jesus
on the radical side of “God is love”?
and not unenlightened hate
not fear-mongering
not disempowering anger.

Even the very proper British King James
royal capitalist Bible
says you will be known by your love
for one another,
by strength to love even your enemies

Those who don’t look
or sound like you
or even smell
and taste
and feel erotic attraction
the gendered way you do.

But a universally uniting
Holy Spirit of compassion
is not the way I know you;
I recognize you by your evangelical
nationalistic
sanctimonious
Chosen People sacrilege

Your falsely irreligious sense of holier,
supremely purer,
more orthodox,
than thou.

I know you as the John 3:16
evangelical cult of blind denial
that “God so loved the WORLD…”

Not just orthodox Chosen People,
not just humanity,
but the entire healthy democracy
of interdependent organic good faith
that love always
everywhere
every time
votes for health and peace
and compassionate humor

While hate
and fear
and anger
vote for unease and disease and war,
badly corrupted humor
and bad faith.

I can find it in my heart
to forgive you for one,
even two, sins
of ignorant voter commission

And yet,
on this spiteful day of Anti-Christlike infamy,
my religious mind struggles
to forgive those whose false pride,
cognitive dissonance issues,
continue into this dark dismal night
of Earth’s organic soul

I struggle to find shared passion
and pleasure
with those without any sorrow,
disappointment,
remorse
for irreligious
wrong
ideological dogmatism

Bad faith that TrumPublicanism
was God’s way of saving you
from voting for healthy multicultural inclusion

Healthy democracy’s constitutional aspiration
for restoring a more perfectly loving unity,
passionate happiness,
pleasures of sacredly organic,
interdependent peace,
not more unwealthy monocultural trauma

Irreligious
and irresponsible evangelical cults
of nationalistic sin
against Earth’s indigenous wisdom

Often Holy Spirit experienced outside orthodox lines
of monopolistic monocultural monotheism

Including prehistoric panentheistic
and EarthMother polytheistic
and pantheistic
and animistic reconceiving re-ligioning
living water
and mustard seed
healthy faithful wealth traditions

None of which are overwhelmingly recognized
by monotheistic addiction
to the anti-loving side
of fascist messianic ideologies
endemic to TrumPublican partisan strategies–
divide to conquer

Not democratically unite
to make constitutionally intended
world redeeming peace.

If you are feeling any shred of remorse
for ignoring political history of death
and/or theological mystery of love
reborn

Own it,
speak it,
transform silence
into choice
for extending love’s bipartisan resilience.

To do so will certainly not reduce you
to feeling worse,
and will increase our healthy democratic capacity

To feel better,
organically healthier,
loving,
peaceful,
faithful,
hopeful,
sacred belonging

Gathering together
our irreligious remorse
and our inter-religious choice
for global Prince of Peace rejoice.

Planning Graceful Oldishness

In my early 70s (not THE early 70s) I discovered, without having had the benefit of being properly schooled for old age planning, that “long-term lifetime goals” have become “longish term waistline objectives” over maybe the next decade or so.

The retiring, too quickly transpiring, nature of these hoped for outcomes has also triaged down to a more responsible mature adult scale of peace-making literacy:
good health plans for resilient physical dexterity,
(used to be sexual athleticism)
good humored anticipation of resonant mental acuity,
(used to be world-famous genius)
and good faith passion for integrity
(used to be making a living by doing something not hopelessly toxic to everyone, everything, everywhere, all the time).

Big surprise in the gerontology department, lesser quantity of life, but healthier qualities of love.

A Taoist’s pronoia version of fair trade.
(used to mean not-fair-trade paranoia about getting ripped off by suspiciously threatening Others, God, Aliens, Big Brother, Artificial Intelligence, Big Pharma, Big Government, Big Bullies, too much over-capitalized, and weaponized, Bigness, etc.)

Now I practice compassion-engaging faith and humor and health by responding to systemic TrumPublican trauma with music and movement therapy, and writing sexual politics poetry, for which there is not a large commercial market, and practicing good liturgical song and dance.

Now in my 70s, I’ve also noticed that good sacred music, like good humor, and good health, is not just about commitment to the stretching movement, but also to the silent rest.

Once Upon A Christian Time

Once upon a Roman Empire building time
a brilliantly pleasing boy was born
of humble Jewish means,
named Jesus.

Born into autocratic occupation,
to avoid military police threats
of mass Jewish male child murder,
Jesus and his mom and dad
became EastBound immigrants,
away from Western kleptocratic ruin.

Jesus was thereby exposed
to more Eastern polytheistic
and pantheistic polycultures
before returning home
to listen and learn literacy
from rabbinical monotheists.

In this time of foreign occupation,
Roman military personnel policed and preyed upon
the prosperous
and innocent
and vulnerable

Creating a divide among Rabbi leaders,
some siding with the Zealot Party
who wanted to overthrow fascist red Roman Rule
and thereby establish an Israel nation-state
reforming Judaism’s land-based theocracy
into more of a Jewish nation-state
plutocracy.

Some rabbis found this too politically nationalistic
and not enough Jewish extended family spiritual,
rooted in Promised Land natural indigenous wisdom
enlightened by One SunGod Creator
shining more Torah manifestly
on His Chosen People

To grow pacifically fruitful,
and not always militantly at war
and threatening war
against Creator’s extended family

Chosen to passionate pleasure prosper
in a divinely manifest more perfect union,
thereby empowering YHWH’s open hospitality Way
of defending peace-fulfilling orthodox Truth
sacred green pasturing
a promised sacred Garden Paradise
of organically healthy EarthLife.

Jesus grew into a young messiah
Prince of SunFather’s enlightening Peace,
although surrounded by his Judaism Tribe
long hoping for a nation-building Zionist,
and not so much an advocate
of non-violent communicating
inter-religiously transformative serenity,
not fundamentally about reforming trauma,
the politically autocratic
and economically demonic face
of weaponized atrocities.

Despite lack of rabbinical support,
Jesus had a God is love for peace
healthy gospel message
inspiring His HolyBody-MindSpirit.

When asked if He supported paying tribute
to war- and fear-mongering Ceasar,
He said to give to Ceasar
what is capitalist coin-producing
military empire-building Ceasar’s,
leaving unsaid the remainder

His religiously mature PeaceTribe
would continue their domestic barter economy
and their Torah-teaching schools
and their walk a second mile
and turn the other cheek
gratitude Beatitudes,
to be known by their love for each other
and not by their fear of
or anger against
unredeemed Other.

At every turn
Jesus lived and taught Love’s way of peace,
consistently giving religious preference
to restorative peace-making
rather than zealous Zionist
Chosen Nation retributive justice
against those who spoke other languages,
against those immigrating from Othered cultures
against those who had sinned
and fallen monopolistically short
of One SunFather’s radically polyamorous
democratic glory

Light empowering even sparrows
and glorious lilies
and prodigiously faith-filled mustard seeds.

Jesus’s consistent retort
to toxic religiosity:
who among us hasn’t failed
Love’s relentlessly religious integrity
of transformational peace?

While Jesus was sad,
tearful about disappointing evangelical
IsraelFirst sceptics,
he promised that his pleasing compassion presence
would become more democratically accessible
upon his panentheistic Holy Spirit/Nature’s return,
sacredly organic
mindfully embodied
blood and bread indigenously wise
inter-religious communion.

And to this day
authentic Christians are discerned
not by their fundamental
scripture-based
“original-intention” orthodoxy
or their evangelical nationalistic patriotism
but by their liberally compassionate
Holy MindSpirit-BodyNature fruits

Including,
yet not limited by anything
anyone
any relationships
other than their demonic irreligious
fear- and anger-

Religiously Irritating History

Once upon a Roman Empire building time
a brilliantly pleasing boy was born
of humble Jewish means,
named Jesus.

Born into autocratic occupation,
to avoid military police threats
of mass Jewish male child murder,
Jesus and his mom and dad
became EastBound immigrants,
away from Western kleptocratic ruin.

Jesus was thereby exposed
to more Eastern polytheistic
and pantheistic polycultures
before returning home
to listen and learn literacy
from rabbinical monotheists.

In this time of foreign occupation,
Roman commanders policed and preyed upon
the prosperous
and innocent
and vulnerable

Creating a divide among the Rabbi leaders,
some siding with the Zealot Party
who wanted to overthrow fascist red Roman Rule
and thereby establish an Israel nation-state
reforming Judaism’s land-based theocracy
into more of a rabbinical nation-state
plutocracy.

Some rabbis found this too political
and not enough Jewish spiritual,
rooted in Promised Land natural
indigenous wisdom
enlightened by One SunGod Creator
shining more Torah manifestly
on His Chosen People
to be fruitful
and passionate pleasure prosper,
maintaining the open hospitality Way
10-commandment Truth
sacred green pasture
empowering promised land-based Life.

Jesus grew into a young messiah
Prince of SunFather’s enlightening Peace,
although surrounded by His Judaism Tribe,
hoping for a nation-building Zionist,
and not so much an advocate
of non-violent communicating serenity,
not reductively all about getting in the political
and economic face
of weaponized atrocities.

Despite lack of rabbinical support,
Jesus had a God is love for peace
gospel message
inspiring His HolyBody Spirit.

When asked if He supported paying tribute
to war- and fear-mongering Ceasar,
He said to give to Ceasar
what is capitalist coin-producing
empire-building Ceasar’s,
leaving unsaid the remainder

His religiously mature PeaceTribe
could continue their cooperative barter economy
and their Torah-teaching schools
and their walk a second mile
and turn the other cheek
gratitude Beatitudes,
to be known by their love for each other
and not by their hate against Other.

At every turn
Jesus lived and taught Love’s way of peace,
consistently giving religious preference
to restorative peace-making
rather than continuing with zealous Zionist
Chosen Nation retributive justice
against those who spoke other languages,
against those immigrating from Othered cultures
against those who had sinned
and fallen queerly short

Jesus’s consistent retort,
who among us hasn’t fallen short
of Love’s relentlessly religious
peace-making integrity?

While Jesus was sad,
tearful about disappointing his evangelical
IsraelFirst followers,
he promised that his compassion
pleasing presence
would become more democratically accessible
upon his panentheistic Holy Spirit/Nature’s return,
sacredly organic
mindfully embodied
blood and bread indigenously wise
inter-religious communion.

And to this day
authentic Christians are discerned
not by their fundamental
scripture-based orthodoxy
or their evangelical nationalistic patrimony
but by their liberally compassionate
Holy Spirit/Nature fruits.

Including,
but not necessarily limited by anything
or anyone
or any relationships
other than their demonic irreligious
fear- and anger- and hate-mongering opposites:

Peace: spiritual-mind/natural-body calm;
not unnatural/unspiritual chaos

Joy: deeply passionate contentment
not widely dispassionate discontent

Faith: spiritual-mind/natural-body confident curiosity;
not dispassionate/displeasing insecure Holier Than Thou

Kindness: compassionate care-giving;
not dispassionately unforgiving

Charity: passionately pleasing Christian [peace-making] love;
not dispassionately displeasing evangelical [just-war] disregard

Patience: thoughtfully engaging trauma’s dissonant degenerativity;
not thoughtlessly disengaging therapeutic resonant regenerativity

Gentleness: Graciously considerate religious practices
not disgraciously inconsiderate irreligious malpractices

Modesty: CreationCentered respectful humility;
not anthropocentric disrespectful greed

Goodness: Religiously moral integrity;
not nationalistic immoral hypocrisy

Longanimity (long-suffering): resilient re-ligious loyalty;
not fragile irreligious disloyalty

Self-control: engaging mind/body healthy opportunities;
not performing spirit-mind v nature-body unhealthy risks

Chastity: purity in associative actions;
not impurity in dissociative reactions.

And so it is
in this Make Christianity Healthy Again story
we might re-ligiously conclude
