To prepare for final cosmic breath
exhaled
echoing first breath
inhaling
waiting to exhale
silent sacred pause
for Earth’s final soliloquy
Terminating all humane
and inhumane futures,
healthy
and disturbing relationships,
elegantly excruciating ecstasy
Leaving hell
yet without receiving Heaven
Surrendering commitments
to health
and unease
Future obligations
and past assets
Resigning from risks of love
without redesigning
further life opportunities
for growth
profit
power
light
gladness
sadness
Thriving phat integrity
surviving clenched cultural chaos,
trying to move on
toward unmitigated peace
without justice worries
Exit strategies
to give in
to unwake,
embrace those hidden organic
sacred give-aways
in cooperative economic dreams
distributing retiring funds
down toward drop dead zero’s
sly slimming poverty.
To give up any worries
about disempowering anomalies
and anti-christs,
witch
and wizard hunts,
coloring too wildly unnoticed
outside contemporary lines
to do no harm to,
and feel most helpful for,
future EarthTribe’s
resilient regenerations
Choosing to wake up
to say goodbye
to fear of death,
to instead actively intend farewell
with loving kindness for sacred Elders
repurposing life
Warm exhaled breath
regarding mind embodied self
and trauma-surviving Others
still actively hoping to achieve
our compassionately co-invested
spirited panentheistic nature
To not grasp and cling and hide
hedonistic hippy fantasies
due to fear of not sufficiently insuring
against deeply intimate loss
of dimming reputation
To embrace love’s learning champions
of curious bigendering courage
even in my last democracy darkening days
To commit to my exit process as deeply
and fully
as I co-invested in my birthing process–
neither outcome involving my total control
of most intimate and integrally gendered situations,
cobinary balance
hopeful regenerations
rich peak experience potential
for addiction
and adoration,
dispassion
and compassion
Both living and dying
involve some range of choice-making
sometimes remembering
victimization
marginalization
systemically capitalized traumatization
always flowing pain-pleasure exquisitely
in-between full of hopeful opportunity
and emptiness of faithless risk
ignoring sacred EarthTribe’s future
Disregarding personal property
and superior anthro-properties
and NOT disregarding silently cherished potential
for integrity’s relentless relationships
transcending personal lifelines,
dipolar co-arising love
for last life’s grasping risks
exposing tomorrow’s ego win
within
eco-winter’s roots
of underground opportunity
For a more curious exit strategy,
peaking life as love
in fast gathering springs of time
and now slowing
peace-filling lanes
recycling seasonal
multicultural
multigenerational
enriching octaved circles
emblazing encultured colors
To optimize health,
safety,
joy,
release,
freedom for Self and Others
in this final preparation
for Great Transition’s
final interdependent gift economy
Healthy and wealthy exit strategies
wisely pay compassion forward
to minimize trauma,
chronic stress,
deep shame anxieties,
depression,
sadness,
claustrophobia,
xenophobia,
stuckness,
faithlessness,
despair,
disorganic systems failure
To let go gracefully
with emotional intelligence
To not get spiritually lost
in physical and mental loss
of what was miraculous
and sacred
to ever have gained
To warmly embrace
and release
my turn to speak
and sing
and dance
and passionately communicate
continues to pass pleasure
one day in light’s dark time
To strategically exit
at my wisest and best,
as I have entered
and re-entered each dawn
to listen with compassion
and learn with active curiosity
To clear a sacred space
and sufficient time
for Others to more fully resonate,
tunefully listen
soulfully feel
more compassionately rhyming reason
Winning this wealthy mind
to win that healthy body
together better
than falling carelessly apart
Stuck in win or lose
steal or starve
ripening or wrecking seasons
To prepare for final cosmic breath
exhaled per diem moments
echoing first breath inhaled
penetrating sustenance.
Exit strategies
waiting to finally exhale,
pausing EarthTribe’s magnificent requiem.
