Optimal Wins

What words do we choose for maximizing our ultimate accomplishments,
achieving our healthiest goals,
proportioning our 100% successful therapeutic outcome projections?

Why do these words,
and our feelings about these choices
wave in and out of optimal happiness and prosperity,
even when quantitative measures suggest our historical maximums
continue to trend up and up toward infinite irresolution?

We say we could become anything,
but do we mean we might achieve everything,
every power,
timeless omnipotence?
How do WinWin ecopolitical norms
accommodate WinLose evolutionary imaginations?

Permaculturists,
like environmental therapists
and holistic medicine practitioners of new life out of old deaths,
favorably contrast polycultures with problematic monocultural outcomes.
Weed patches, essentially,
where you intended your front yard garden
and which may infest where you intended to grow your healthy ego identity.

We might hope to become more polypathic achievers
by acclimating to less egocentric monopolistic gestalts,
climates of self and other awareness becoming atrophied subclimates,
static,
aging hoary traditionalists of thought and faith concomitant feelings,
calcifying empathic trusters of ego’s always limited
health v pathology hour by hour,
day by day,
decade by decade,
life by life contests, comparisons, contrasts,
each and all co-arising.

Yet, like Yangish competitive power over others
and Yin’s gooier cooperative internalized power with others,
these opposing bilaterals
are also dynamically recycling appositional revolutions
within and without climates and subclimates
of intricately networking change,
searching for optimal,
not maximal extreme fundamentalist,
but optimally sustainable healthy tensegrity, synergy, therapy,
softly contentious contentment,
peace through responsible and mutually-held flexibility,
in-between competition and cooperation and victimization,
in-between LeftBrain deductions and RightBrain inductions,
in-between monocultural ecopolitical maximization of human ego-natures
and polycultural ecopolitical cooperative minimization of all Earth’s Living Natures
lies a vastly complex, often feeling chaotic, overwhelming
transitioning
regenerating middle ground,
an in-between Tipping Pointed recycling networks of issues and platitudes,
a wu-wei spatial place of ego/eco-mind,
collective ecoconsciousness
and RealTime WinLeft/WinRight flexibly enlightening
enriching
endeepening thermodynamic balance.

In this in-between shadow place of becoming healthier balancing identities,
monocultures begin to look like what remains
of former polycultures,
artifacts of cherished Elders,
and what could continue to become part of a new wealthier
denser
ecologically balancing multiculturally thriving future.

What looks like monopolistic alien powers over little benign-ego me,
begin to look like what remains from our former shared polypathic
ecotherapeutic identity
hoping toward future powers with each other person and species,
imagination’s deja vu of a felt monopolistic forever compost
nurturing perfectly and deepdarkly enriching Black Holed wombs
of embryonic time’s regenerative evolutionary integrative
reweaving promise,
never beginning
and ever ending
timeless ecoconsciousness.

Truth with beauty natures of enlightening climates
do indeed continuously co-arise change,
invite flexibility of WinWin responses,
but these are changes that have traditionally favored health
and disfavored pathology.

To continue following your optimal light
is to become pilgrims of inclusive global health,
inside as outside,
gradually expanding Golden Rule awareness
to include intent and praxis and real-world cooperative/competing with, not paranoid against
ecotherapeutically ecoconscious ecological ecosystems
ecopolitically richer
and denser
yet lighter and happier
outcomes
that continue optimizing,
by avoiding extremes of fundamentalist maximizing Anthro-egos
and radical minimizing of Earth’s cooperative potential without us.

 

 

Note to Taoists and Unitarian-Universalists:

I suspect that universalists see Yang-optimizing monocultures where unitarians see Yin-nurturing polycultures; and we are all both Left-Universalist Egos and Right-Unitarian Ecos.

Singing Dance for Public/Private Health

What I care about
and what I am working
and even playing hard with
is better understanding what and how
we and Earth
communicate to and with each other,
regenerating mindbody health sometimes,
and yet degenerating pathological climates and subclimates,
gestalts,
ecopolitical chemistry puzzles and games,
systemic syndromes articulating wu wei
Tipping Points of MultiCultural ReGenerate Enthymemes.

Only up to half of effective human communication,
whether you talk or listen,
write or read,
or sing or dance or draw or sculpt or design or recreate,
or preferably all of the above,
is about word choice and language,
dialectal articulation
and successful transfer of accurately informing verbal messages
from a voice source to one or more ecosystemic receptors,
ears to linguistically and culturally hear
health v pathology of climatic autonomic feelings,
thoughts,
insights,
concerns,
prayers,
hopes and fears,
loves and angry-paranoid hates
and all complexities in-between these dipolarities of thinking/feeling.

The other half, or more, of communication and all that ecopolitical jazz
of dance and song,
is all about non-verbal context,
or/and natural climate,
or/and academic climate,
or/and political climate,
or/and economic climate,
or/and ecologically healthy historic-cultural climate,
or/and environment,
or/and medium of nature’s most regenerate messages
as positive over double-negative
double-binding eco-cosmological
Right-timeless/Left-EternalYangTime.

In communications theory,
we often focus on sight,
on what we can see of speakers speaking
and listeners listening and watching and feeling and caring, or not;
smiles and frowns
ups and downs,
happy-health and pathological down messages,
positives and negatives,
and even humors of oxymoronic double-binding not-nots
within time’s naturally unfolding logic
with analogical ego’s aesthetic mindbody live-function/evil-dysfunction,

Evilive is when light-filled healthy
and dualdark equipoise equivalently balance co-arising Tipping Points
of bicamerally balanced ecoconsciousness
transforming into a deeper, more resonate, climate potential
of and for rich-dense-harmonic-octaved positives,
as physical/metaphysical long-term trending regenerate multicultural health.

Yet communication,
as Thich Nhat Hanh observes,
is a function of nutrition and health,
and/or malnourishment and pathology,
so optimized messages
are not only redundantly heard and seen,
but also sometimes smelled and tasted and remembered
and touched
and felt
ecoconsciously and/or autonomically,
intuitively in reverse-deductive time’s enthymematic reweaving deja vu,
back to matriarchal loving womb’s non-paranoid DNA-inspired compost,
as portentious of good and bad to follow,
especially lensed-framed-calculated-climatized-hypnotized-actively hopeful for future anthro-bicameral
post-millennial
polypathic regenerations of peaceful multiculturing love.

As Earth’s clouds of unknowing
predict rains of water and light’s fertile nurturance,
predict trees with organically networking ecopolitical health-development roots,
predict an anthrocentric world of paper
predicting Earth cloud’s most viral DNA-sympathetic, non-paranoid, messages,
predicting more loving health
and less hating pathologically trending climates of devolving change,
through lack of full-enthymematic octave-optimized timelessly classic communication on our Golden Rule Tribe’s part,
especially as song and tribal 4-step danced
and hopefully as analogical/ecologically balanced nutritional poetry.

I so hope
you can and will write and sing and dance this enlightenment poem
back to me
in any polypathic dialect
we could all ecologically comprehend
as another great rich message out to fellow Earth Tribes,
We know we made this mess,
and feel really really bad about it,
but we sing and dance and ecopoliticize cooperatively
and hope to get better with this Golden Rule
of light’s regenerative fertility
through stronger yet more flexible harmonic co-arising balance.

How do you follow your ecopolitical light,
and learn from our dualdark TippingPoint shadows?

Climate Addictions v Adaptations

It appears that Feyerabend presents a more accurate normative gestalt
for RightBrain epistemological climates,
how RightBrain solves chaotic environmental puzzles,
while Popper is better for LeftBrain deduction,
diastolic evolving unfolding
of syllogistic logic.
Together evolving toward a dipolar truth
of balancing flexibiity
trending toward regenerative health optimization,
accuracy of truth meets beauty,
as yang embraces yin,
as deduction reweaves induction.

Julian Jaynes and Carl Jung
describe a redundantly held ecology of mind and body,
spirit and nature,
anima and animus as did Laotse,
each within an interdependent histo-cultural paradigmatic dialect,
or gestalt.

This interdependence may be explored
using Gregory Bateson’s mapping v referent model,
searching for WinWin health outcomes,
using ecological-fractal strictures
of seasonal folding and unfolding,
cause and effect,
primal Creation Story analogies
in geometric ecosystems with (0)-sum Tipping Points.

Buckminster Fuller
and other alchemists present dialectal patterns confluent with climate
and chemistry
and anthromorphic character dipolarities
of appositional metric self-referencing design.

This interweaving revolving architecture
of Earth’s metaphysical and physical evolution
is easier to see
from an Eastern philosophic nondual co-arising nature
as spiritual systemic polypathic universal assumption.

Bateson’s economic and ecology
and logical type epistemology
is also about generating great and small revolutions
in healthy gestalt homeostasis,
in which human mindbodies adjust within Earth’s environment.
For example,
internal acclimation is human nature’s response
to altitude change in atmospheric climates,
where initial cognitive/affective/autonomic dissonance symptoms
cause stress,
until lung-brain body resolves internal climate discord.
Flexibility refers to readjustments in Tipping Point balance
between TooMuchYang/TooLittleYin,
where Yang is Positive Polynomial
and Yin is NotNot POlynomial equi-valent balancing,
so that internal polynomial ecosystems
become once again confluent with NotNot Polynomial Earth’s climatic
effects on human Tao (0)-souled nature/spirits,
ecology of minds and bodies,
reverse analogies and correlates of Left Deductive with Right Inductive processors
of dialectal exegetical information
AND eisegetical inductive decompositional function
of prime (0)-sum thermodynamic dipolar co-arising regenerate relationship.

This might be easier to see
if Bateson had adapted Russell’s ‘higher’ logical type language
to emphasize revolutionary,
as opposed to BusinessAsUsual evolutionary
cultural day-to-day development,
climate searches for more health and less pathology
are a return to a deeper ecological balancing flexibility physiology-psychology gestalt.
Whether using ‘higher’ or ‘deeper’ is an arbitrary perspective
within any universal field of inquiry,
as Buckminster Fuller perhaps too redundantly reminded us,
unto near death.

Addiction to acclimated cultural norms, then,
is ecopolitical marginalization,
and sometimes criminalization,
rather than the more positive adaptational flexibility expected
of human nature’s kosmic evolution
on and within Earth’s RNA/DNA encrypted
(0)-soul-sum-core-eco/interest power-balance.

To be consistent,
society must yet resolve our willingness
to live with patently fascist conclusions
that all mental illness is a form of negative addiction.
And, even if so,
which seems unlikely,
then precisely how are we addicted (adapted)
to which climate pathologies
and which ecopolitical therapies
might resolve these culturally normed symptoms
of too LeftBrain dominant mental illness?

Our Home Right and Wrong

Earth’s Rights
and Lefts
for
and to
a Healthy Climate;
and please not so much climatic pathologies
for Her
and all her EarthTribal RNA/DNA encrypted species,
extended families,
if you could imagine for a minute
this vast coin-sedately breathing organic network
hoping together for Earth’s Present Future Rights,
and not those pesky Wrongs.

Whaddaya mean?
Earth could have no rights.
It’s a planet
not a person.

Oh, great, a heckler.
Just what I need right now.
Excuse me, didn’t you give corporations ecopolitical rights of persons?
Can’t you see Earth as the ultimate incorporated person?
with internationally protected rights and responsibiities
and ecological authorities
to behave with ecotherapeutic healthy nutritious ecopolitical practice?

I thought so.
Earth wants us to know
She agrees with our ecologists and economists
and our more cooperative multicultural political leaders
seeking to advance healthy-wealthy climates
and recess those too pathological.

She wants us to remember
together we have every regenerative right of therapeutic solidarity
to broadly expand current normative exegesis
of our PermaCultural Golden Rule:

Do to Earth
as She has done,
is doing,
and is cooperatively committed to regeneratively continue evolving
into our future time;
as you would optimally trend HealthWealth Quality Improvement
through WinWin strategies of Cooperative EcoPolitical Systems,
regenerative,
healthy,
sustainable,
therapeutic,
ecological,
economic,
political,
psychological,
biological outcomes,
as you would have Her continue unto/with you
and all your future and past fellow-EarthTribe
(0)-soul
sum
core
bilateral-binomial-binary-functional dipolar investments
on through all our future healthy multiculturally
cooperative-normed regenerations,
revolutions,
resonance,
resolutions, etc…

Following diastatically elational,
bliss-filled beautiful harmonious
irresolutely nonpolynomially exformationally out
away from (0)Core dualdark cosmology,

Predicting regeneratively reweaving healthy
integrative
informing
in-tellus-anthromorphic
Black Hole MultiFrequencied Blissful
dipolar co-arising
co-gravitating
Yang/Yin humors,
climates of health v pathology
in all ecosystems evolving
emerging
from and toward
historic-cultural paradigm development,
Creation Stories of myth with logos,
yin as yang,
RightInductive-Recessive as LeftBrain Deductive-Dominant.

Neither natural nor encultured conduct codes
have any interest in healthy v pathological norms and behaviors
of corporations and their rights and responsibilities.
Law and logic are neutral
regarding public health.

I doubt your law is so anemic.
But, if true,
we need to work on that,
preferably in a more multiculturally inclusive-cooperative way
of dialectal discernment
for ecopolitical WinWin choice-making,
as mentored by regenerative Earth’s nondual co-arising Rights
of Healthy Nature-Spirit EcoSystems.

So corporate Earth’s Rights
are to be exegeted by natural law
as if kosmic karma,
coincidental past cause with future regenerate/degenerate outcomes?

And Grace,
don’t forget about our Evangelicals,
Western and Middle-Eastern Fundamentalists,
who themselves too pathologically forget
that Grace is just another word for love.

And Buckminster Fuller comprehended love
as just another metaphysical word
for physical-natural-spiritual-ergodic-ionic-eutaxic
prime relational fractal-octave
syntaxed
harmonic integrating synergy,
like photosynthetic regenesis
as primal relationship of Sun’s fertile Light
with Earth’s Green/Blue double-boundaried in/out
(0)-soul evolving healthy cooperative BubbleSkin.

BubbleSkin.
Really?
You begin with Earth Rights
to end with BubbleSkin therapy?

Recycling of time’s revolutions
either has no beginning or end
or these are each appositional faces of
bicameral EarthElite v AnthroNonElite ecopolitical revolution,
learnin’ us some lessons in mutual cooperativity.

Quality Climate Changes

Quantities of time feel nothing.
Calculating, summing and subtracting,
days and weeks,
months and years and decades
roll past our eyes and ears
our growing and shrinking stomachs
to leave their strong and weak-grooved rings,
yet I only feel and remember qualities of time as co-present,
co-arising
co-gravitating
or dissonant immune reactions
of fear about time’s future qualities
anger about time’s past conflicts
burning hot bright volcano hatreds
adrenaline flowing flashes
accessible as bliss
only completely invested, immersed,
within this timeless moment,
too seldom aware of Earth’s intelligent co-present fertility
as grace dancing through our quantities of mortal metric times.

Qualities of time’s regenerate evolutions
long to feel everything belonging once again together,
as if beyond a foggy lapse of mirrored identity
this was our golden era memory
feeding on matriarchal placentas
when all felt now-ly timeless
and right
and true as good
and warm-full beauty filled.

Perhaps here lies our measure of time’s healthiest quality,
economic and political as ecologically environmental growth therapy,
surfing through this timeless now of polypathic potential consciousness
of feelings positive through negative
emerging from and for and through and in and on and over each now
submerging into past speciating
branching memories,
trees of old strong-rooted felt memory
weighed against and for our original embryonic nurturing standards
for stronger ecopolitical health
as less climatic pathology
through this eternally regenerating now.

Quality of Tao feels everyone potentially to-gathering.

Earth Rights: Declaration of Climate Interdependence

Remix of Thomas Jefferson’s thoughts a few years ago.

When in the Course of Earth’s climatic events,
it becomes necessary for cultures to resolve political bands
which have connected Her with human nature,
and to assume among the powers of Earth,
separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Earth’s Health entitle them,
a deep respect for the opinions of others requires
that we should declare the causes which impel us to this Declaration of Interdependence.

We hold these truths to be self-evident,
that all Earth’s Tribes are primally regenerative,
that we are endowed by Elders with certain unalienable Rights,
that among these are Life as Love,
Liberty from Terror and Liberty to Nurture,
and the evolution of CoOperative Health as Happiness.
That to secure these rights,
Governments are instituted within and between Earth’s Tribes,
deriving our just powers through therapeutic discernment of the governed,
That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of Healthy Life,
Liberty,
and CoOperative Happiness,
it is the Right of Earth’s Tribes to alter or to abolish it,
and to institute new Government,
laying its cooperative foundation on such ecological principles
and organizing its health-powers in such form
and multicultural function,
as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Health Safety and Loving Happiness.

Prudence, indeed, will dictate that regenerative nutrient-systems long established
should not be changed for light and transient causes;
and accordingly all experience has shown,
that human nature is more disposed to suffer,
while evils are sufferable,
than to right ourselves by evolving the self-governing functions
to which we are more accustomed.
But when a long train of anthrocentric abuses and usurpations of power
used as a weapon,
evinces a design to reduce multiculturally enriching outcomes
under anthrocentric despotism,
it is Earth’s right,
it is EarthTribe’s regenerate duty,
to throw off such pathologies of government,
and to provide new mentors and models for future health and security.

Such has been the patient sufferance of these DNA/RNA Tribes;
and such is now the necessity which constrains us
to cooperatively reweave our former Competing Systems of Government.

The history of the present nation-states is a history of repeated injuries
and usurpations of cooperative governance powers,
all having in direct object the establishment of mutual immunity
and anthrocentric hubris.

To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.
We have refused Earth’s Assent to Love’s Natural Laws,
the most wholesome and necessary for good multicultural outcomes.
We have discouraged governments from passing laws of immediate and pressing climatic importance.
We have refused to pass other laws for the accommodation of all Earth’s Tribes
and EcoSystems,
a right inestimable to them
and formidable to tyrants only.

We have dissolved entire species and healthy ecosystems repeatedly,
opposing with manly firmness Earth’s matriotic rights of healthy evolution.

We have refused WinWin ecotherapeutic orthopraxis for a long time,
nation-states remaining in the mean time exposed to all the WinLose dangers
of aggressive invasion from without,
and terrorist convulsions within.

We have endeavoured to remove and destroy indigenous populations of these States;
refusing to encourage their healthy migrations,
and appropriating Earth’s Commons through commodification.

We have affected to render the Military independent of WinWin therapeutic outcomes
and competitively superior to Civil powers
of active political and economic cooperation.

We have combined with other nations
to subject ourselves to a jurisdiction foreign to Earth’s regenerative constitution,
not acknowledging symbiotic processes
of mutually subsidiary and complementary evolution.

We have not protected ourselves from punishment and defiance
by deep learning rewards of empathic trust
and healthy love of truths within nutritious beauty.

BeAttitudes

Boredom.
Basic Attendance.
Bliss.

Basic Attendance,
like everyday naked birthday suit Positive Psychology,
wu wei squeezed in between boredom and bliss.
A “wear your everyday stay-at-home comfy clothes”
way of balancing
Yin’s manic excesses of sensory-cognitive relational internalization
and
Yang’s monocultural excesses of ego-conscious totalitarian supremacy,
each and all very nice in mutual moderation,
but really not sustainable for Business As Cooperatively Usual
ecopolitical
everyday mundane purposes
in extreme dualistic polarities.

Basic Attendance
neither grasps for ego’s supremacist Win
though others Lose happiness,
nor despairs of ego’s ephemeral,
shame-filled absence of efficacy,
lack of interest in whatever Earth offers
as a mix of nutrition and pathology
in too-slow times
of ego’s under-investment in actively imagined love fertilization,
wanting what grows healthiest for right now’s appropriately wealthy cooperative attendance
within and yet toward Earth’s multicultural ecopolitical balancing voices.

Our authority to label behavior with criminal over-yanged intent
might better also include yin’s within responsibilities
for concomitant disabling/ennabling ecopolitical outcomes for all concerned,
for therapeutic intent,
as ecologically harmonic
within/without healthy communication practices
and sometimes ego-disjunctive disciplines.

What is good for goose, also good for gander,
but what is bad for gander
should not also feed the goose.

Fair Market Pricing

The prices we each gladly agree to pay
for our attachment to healthy joys
is sadness within their too distant absence.

We each and all have natural disasters,
large and smaller versions,
without and within.
But we also have natural climate miracles
which are Earth’s Business As Usual,
and primary ecological reason
that what we have learned as natural disasters
both feel and are unnatural anomalous disasters,
forecasters of further doom and gloom.

We have both climate healthy norms
and pathological loss
of wealthy/healthy climate aberrations.

The price we readily agree as fair
to belong together on this our Earth Creator,
is longing for us to never ever blissfully end
together.

Flying Invocations

My backyard birds call me each morning.
Come join our oceanic swimming pools
our mountainous nests.
Come fly with us
if only for this brief respite
immersed in imaginary sanity.

Away from risks and opportunities
of complexly motivated and languaged human nature
longing to rediscover
our eternally humane ecological nature,
belonging reconnected
as and with and in Earth’s flying raptured nature.

Birds sing namaste benedictions,
invocations, with us.
How are you?
Come back to us.
Remember you came from
a long regenerating family
of singing flying swimming
rooting full-octave nurturing voices.

We each,
together,
build our shrine in Earth’s wilderness,
or recreate nothing of healthy value
accessible to all.

Reclusive Accountabilities

I am sick of excuses to avoid responsibility
and I am, today, sick with excuses to avoid responsibility
with “I’m just a mortal human. I make mistakes.
I judge situations and relationships,
assess potential risks to care and nourishing choices
badly sometimes.”

I do. And so do you.

At the same time,
I applaud mutually transparent accountability
to always do our best,
to apply Golden Rules as broadly stretching out across time and species,
until no moment escapes our WinWin ecoconscious
YES!
to totally sharing accountability for
my/our judgments,
communication,
my/our relationships,
for both positives and negatives.
Yes to sharing accountability for my/our environments and cultural climates,
my/our days,
my/our generations,
my/our species,
my/our choices of entertainment and amusement,
my/our realities and imaginations,
my/our judiciary system,
my/our Police Officers
and attorneys
and judges
and potentially useful WinWin ecopolitical leaders
and, of course,
loving parents
co-mentoring breathing in
as breathing out together with both ears nondually co-arising Basic Attendance.

Responsible,
doing the best I can each moment,
mindful behavior choices
are nourished by low-stress environments,
and their wise and good-humored caretakers.

When law enforcement is culturally more important
than peace enforcement,
When the criminalization of humanity is culturally acceptable
ecopolitical harm through coldly-calculated bullying,
repressive intimidation,
then we are all entrapped in mutually-paranoid terrorism and LoseLose scenarios,
correctional strategies guaranteed to bring the worst possible outcomes
for everyone,
about which absolutely no one is really better than miserable.

Criminal-prejudice is no more politically, economically, ecologically healthy
than is racism.
In fact, for many U.S. people of color,
racism feels a whole lotta like presumption of abusive/neglectful criminal-intent.
Paranoia is this same presumption, writ large,
across our entire BusinessAsUsual cultural climate of pathology.

Peace enforcement
and the full balanced ecoconscious humanization of this species
require us to accept what we might see and hear
and feed ourselves,
in positive healthy ecopolitical days and nights
as positively incarnated Reality Shows
where everybody actually wins what they most need in the end,
or at least more than they had,
where there are no real losers needed to make a good wholesome story,
positive youtube videos are for every mind and body’s WinWin future.

Law enforcement
and the nihilistic further commodification and criminalization of humanity
does not nourish well-rounded healthy regenerations
to build up who we ecotherapeutically are
and where we are headed together,
like cynical negative Reality Shows,
and sociopathic social media messages
of violence and mayhem begets more of same.

We have positive Selfies and social media stars
and there are also negatives.
But, we hope our political leaders
and police officers
and judicial systems
are feeding more on the positive
and not frothing at the mouth so much
in actively dissonant mistrusts of collective culturally degenerative paranoia.

We have a profound ecopolitical choice to make,
to invest in positive health assumptions of Golden Rule good faith
until proven otherwise,
not just strongly, prejudicially, and malignantly suspected,
and we too often invest in negative social and eco-political poor health choices,
news and interpreted events
as entertainments and grist for ruminating imaginations
and then paranoid realities,
LoseLose pathologies,
absence of faith in a more integrative regenerative future.

We can choose to learn our way toward more robust Climate Health,
or go this other way,
with armed humorless paranoids
disguised in peace officer uniforms,
really out to get themselves yet another victim
of their anger and disappointment with humanity’s
lack of self-respect and -responsibility,
including their own sometimes
when they really are not doing the best they can
in a struggling situation.
Or, are they?

Those who feast on negative media and gaming entertainments,
bad-environment choices,
maybe shouldn’t take the lead on determining what is commercially-viable news
about challenging and suffering events and cultures
and religions,
and economic and political systems,
and ecological systems
still gasping for more positive good-news health
and less satire and nihilism,
and paranoia.

Responsibility meets our levels of accountability
for trust and empathy
and active listening and noticing possibilities to minimize victimization,
criminalization,
revenge,
stealth and duplicity,
anger and fear,
mistrusts growing into raging distrustful paranoid hatreds
of individual magical fragile sacred people,
and families nurtured by and in and with Beloved Communities,
we have too often reduced to vocational labels
associated with diatribes of prejudicial disrespect,
not understanding victim-creators suffer too,
for what they do and what they have failed to do,
as how they are
in this too-toxic environment.

If you cannot find any compassion for your accusers,
your nay-sayers,
your deniers,
your bullies and fascists and terrorists
for their ridiculous LoseLose scenarios
begging for a good laugh,
rather than satirical character assassinations,
stepping out of WinWin hopes and faiths for health and help and hope,
then you are still looking
for how this that has happened to you
could move further toward WinWin ecopolitics,
more opportunities for health with less risk of pathology,
as am I,
while a paranoid white male Police Officer
continues shouting through my screen door
about my highly over-rated sense of shameless disregard for others.

Maybe he just needs more sleep,
better meds.
Who knows?
I wish they wouldn’t let him out loose with a gun
by himself,
he’s scaring me and my kids
with his humorless lack of hearing
and therefore compassion for others
who probably also could use more sleep,
more vacation,
less negative recreations.
