HomeRunning Ego

Ego is the label psychology gives us
to describe our ecoconscious experiences,
those cooperatively-nutritionally sustaining climate health

internal and external climates and landscapes
cultures and networks
primal relationships

and those competitively-toxically assaulting climate health,
internally and externally devolving

decaying RightBrain-Body feelings
and LeftBrain worded anthropocentric thoughts
of ego/eco-passions and dispassions

internal/external confluent
when not dissonant,
dissociated

When re-associated
without ‘ego’ off-centering preference,
without attachment to “independent” ego empire building

Non-0-sum
nonverbal
non-violent
interdependent polypathic-polyvagal awareness,
internal ego-forming as externally eco-formed

beginning with Brain-Body formation,
empathic trust Crown dominant
within matriarchal Root nutritional paradise
of embryonic climate health.

EcoMother emerges Ego development
through our Exodus from Eden’s Genesis

birth canal emergence into Earth Tribe
regenerating/degenerating Earth’s climate health/pathology.

Ego health begins and ends
enveloping healthy compassionate contentment
in our own interdependently languaged thoughts-with-feelings skin,
bicameral hearts,
bicameral brains,
polyvagal bodies,
Crown to Root spinal cords
neuro-sexsensory systems
living inside eco-sexsensory systems…

To grow a healthy Ego
is to become polypathically ecoconscious of climate therapies,
internal and external,
anthro/ecologically symbiotic.

Symbiotic relationship
is a term evolutionary theory gives us
to regenerate an organic theology
of ego/eco transubstantiation

sacred ecological purpose
toward polyculturally interdependent robust climates
of thriving democratic life-care systems.

Ego LeftBrain words and economic and political thought
and practice, practice, practice,
emerge from Elder RightBrain matriotic eco-consciousness
to become more cooperatively Animus/Anima grace-full

co-arising
belonging-mind/safe-body
consciousness.

Ego is a label for ecoconscious nurturing trust,
and lack thereof,
in regenerating compassionate economic and political experience,
and degenerative lack thereof.

The Sacred Balance of Yin and Yang in Earth’s Ecosystems

Once upon an eternal sacred time of Earth’s Golden Age,
Yin knew her body as a divinely virginal forested place
given equally to all for and of Earth’s holy
wondrous
regenerativity.

She, without language,
but with marvelously round holonic symmetry
and multisensory proportion,
recreated prolifically organic
panentheistic nurture systems

Bilateral crown/root shade trees
of cobinary up/down energies
with mutually subsidiary synergy

And cognitively-thought v intuitively-felt dissonant

Imagine Perfect Thanksgiving

Imagine you live in a daily environment
where and when everything you like
is already yours if you simply ask with gratitude,
and is more frustratingly ungraspable
if you cannot acquire sufficient gratitude to ask.

And, it doesn’t even matter whom you ask.
So you need not be troubled by complexities,
historically epic narratives,
about who owns what,
and who does not,
because everyone you meet knows it is their vocation,
it is among their reasons for being,
to give you whatever you want
whenever you want it with sufficient gratitude.

How might you respond to such power and riches,
to both give and to receive
in an exchange economy
that only values gratitude?

How might we gratuitously seed our fertile black soils
and sparkling clear clean rivers,
and smile back at our perfectly protective blue sky?

I don’t imagine this gratitude power
is magical.
I would not want power to be someone else.
I could not gratefully behold beautiful body
great mind perfection
and also gratefully want to possess that mindbody.

You do have the power to ask them, with gratitude,
to help you see and hear and smell and taste their beauty,
but not to own other organic bodies
without sufficient independent power
to appreciate gratitude of desire

Becoming safely healthy polyvagal powers with others
grateful for our mutually grateful compassion,
vulnerability,
cooperatively trusting co-investments,
because your powers of acquisition
are constrained only by this fair exchange economy
of mutual free-will gratitude.

Imagine, as you mature in wanting control,
the organic chemistry of mutually engaged gratitude
when you were an unwounded infant,
without fear of competitively unresponsive
ingratitude

A polycultural pronoia economy
of positive attitudes
without any learned possibility
of experiencing negative ingratitude.

Imagine how you might have heard:
You can be anyone you desire to become
with sufficient gratitude.
You have cooperative powers
to acquire whatever you can gratefully imagine,
as innocent of longing for the unattainable
as an unborn infant

Imagine, from birth,
this divinely human experience
of continuously
relentlessly
without fear-inducing exception
without blame or shame
without negative judgment
becoming whom
and having whatever we wish for
within an ecology of mutually extending gratitude
perfectly predictable trust
having only felt warmly appreciated mutual regard

Without any magical wonder
or mysterious awe
that you are not discontinuously struggling
sometimes longing
needing to break through dispassionate unpleasant feelings
to become whom and have what other organic beings
do not gratefully wish for you.

Imagine that self-gratitude
automatically generates
re-evaluated other-gratitude,
and vice-versa
self-as-also-other regenerating gratitude.

Imagine you are a healthy organic body
with a wealthy sacred mind
living love where and when
all you can gratefully take in
is ours to give each grateful trusting other.

What happens in your imaginative chemistries
when Win v Lose games of Keep Away
revert into Win-Win nondualistic games of Give Away,
but only when productive for
and consumptive of
co-empathic gratitude?

Warm Acceptance

How would Earth create
and reconnect
regenerate
a species still needing ecological acceptance?

This need to be accepted
and accepting what cannot be win/win changed
just yet
in troubled
and troubling relationships

This need for acceptance
is born of trauma,
past experiences
not being accepted
as is,
not feeling appreciated,
not unconditionally cherished
warmly accompanied,
touched
by win/win communication

Not tolerating chronic
win/lose aggressive
patriarchal capitalism
as the best RightWing weapon
fighting wars
against economic
and political Appreciation,
nonviolent communication,
compassionate invention
for trauma prevention.

If babies
and marriages
are made in Heaven,
then we should not be surprised
when they are aborted
while surviving silent
secluded
obsessive-compulsive
patriarchal-colonizing Hell
on ecocidal Earth

Which may speak out for warm acceptance
rather than continuing cold
impatient tolerance
for LeftBrain AnthroSupremacist
fears of dark and shameful
idolatrous
and/or spoiled brat inadequacy

To learn why Earth has created
LeftBrain verbal dominance
for reconnecting
regenerating
a species still needing ecological acceptance,
unconditional warm regard
for MotherEarth
Restoring sacred Justice

Touched by Her trust
for Yang external Truths
with Yin internal Beauty
thought and felt accompanied
compassionate
Self and Other
warm NonZero-Soul Acceptance

Is a whole lot healthier
and environmentally safer
than cold Zero-Sum
patriarchal-corporate
competitions for Tolerance.

Why I Am Here

At the Planet Gym
embodying my best business
when suddenly I wonder

Why am I here?
repeats
and repeats
in my wandering ear

And what magic
might appear

Isn’t that queer?
Not WHY am I here
with these Straight People

because this overpopulated question
may obscure other
quieter
ambidextrously resourceful directions
less shaded by fear
of robust diversity

I suppose
But, what can I hear
about why am I here?
and not over There
on the Other side

What two-sided relationships
would I need
to become fully here today?
and all seasons yet to arrive
in this sacred home of People
Plants
and PlanetEarth

With gratitude,
I suppose…
but, Why am I here
again?

Cannot mean
only those purposes and means
asso-sedated with my home address
and sometimes needy
sometimes hostile
[downright spankin mean]
neighbors

More creature comforts,
certainly
AND we search for sacred meaning
inside
more intimate

Spiritual enlightenment
perhaps shyer,
timid
early childhood Loser-Trauma

Drama messages
win/lose valuable

Vulnerable communications
with imperfect win/win transparent closets

Hiding chronic stress histories
of anxiety
longing for sacred peace,
or even just a secular piece, you know,
now and again

For chronic stress,
anxiety

Longing for peace
or restored ego-resilience,
or at least a restored recliner

Happiness, and a marketable craft
and EarthMother teaching skills

For relearning not sad gladness
in hope,
joy
in anticipation,
gratitude
for opportunities
to co-invest
in always interesting neighbors

In the Planet Gym
mindbodying
our best health business.

Nature Nurturing Questions

Why is misery said to love company
while depression demands solitude?

And
is it always true that nature abhors a vacuum
and/or
sometimes true nurture adores expansion?

Misery,
depression,
anxiety,
negatively respond to trauma.

Negatives do not look for like company
but can positively appreciate co-passionate listeners,
lit up not not glisteners,
dark solitude
giving sway
power
light
to more festive solidarity

Negative energy,
entropy
transforming toward
positive integrity,
synergy

Perhaps reparations
restorations
regenerations
reassure these positive feelings
to grow increasingly rational
as negative trauma events
continue to outreach,
and/or discontinue to inreach,
our cooperative,
and/or competitive,
therapeutic plans
problem-solving designs
rational regard
healthy projections
wealthy predictions
positive anticipations
and/or negative anxieties
about recession
depression
oppression
suppression
negative impression
retribution sticks
are not restoring carrots.

Misery loves solidarity
when ready for some kinda manic,
co-therapeutic
good-humored
win/win enthusiastic
spirited
dynamic problem-solving

Outside depression’s
BusinessAsUsual
secularized
severing
secretive locked box,
brain-and-body stormy,
rather than embodied brain full storming
love’s transcendent positive possibilities

Why does re-creative planning
to heal our polymorphic
whole open organic
thinking systems
co-passionately co-invest shared feelings?
negative through positive,
not negative non-zero positive
regifting anticipations.

Why do depression
anxiety
misery viciously
and virally escalate
in isolation?
excommunicated vacuums
of discommunication

Absorbing left-hemisphere
self-wounding negative labels
for feelings of Introspective Loser
UnreNouned Retard
Dirty Nigger
Floozy Faggot
Bull Dyke
Silly Sissy
Flaming Fool
if not selfing shame
then othering blame,
felt trauma nurtured fear
rebecoming terror’s natural anger.

Why do victims of past win/lose
wallow in a perennial vacuum
denying communal
win/win therapeutic
integrity?

When does compassionate solidarity
abhor unnatural trauma events
and dispiriting nurtured
disempowering denatured
misery
post-traumatic stress disorders
chronic depression
feelings of all is lost?

Loser Ego
re-cognizing Loser EcoCommunity
inside/outside despair,

Disrepair
beat down
defeated
by monopolistic
monoculturing traumatic
weed-choked aggressions

Despite what we hoped
would become a cooperatively managed
organic
health paradise
wealth-resilient garden

Rather than a silent
demilitarized
remilitarizing zone

Fearing I will awake
to yet another day
alone

Abandoned
unable and unwilling to be heard

Asking this loser victim
of self shame
and callous Othering myopic
and epic
blame

Why s/he abhors emotionally negative vacuums
yet silently loves
therapeutic positive ideals

Of communities communicating,
win/win company
co-empowering win/lose problem-solving

To repair
restore
replace chronic trauma risks
with potential therapeutic opportunities
for ecosystemic
ego-extending
co-passionate communication

Decelerating win/lose traumatized communities
of monoculturing trauma climates
by restorying risks of isolating anxious vacuums
with opportunities to anticipate company
healthy community
wealthy solidarity
nonviolent communication

Deep and wide feelings
re-membering eco-matrimonial
panentheistic
sacred integrity’s questions

About primally warm
well-moisturized
glistening
listening
integrity of sacred swelling
wells.

Choosing Happy Health

My round white anti-depressants
were trying their faithful best
to listen to my ecofeminist
wise old woman
gardening neighbor,
pulling aggressive weeds

Sharing with me
her morning meditation reflection
immediately after entering dawning eyes
and before exiting her dreamy
comforting
fertile bed

Her opening
and excavating self-invitation
to choose body health nutrition
and mind happiness nurturing
which are snugly associated
for her
like peas and carrots
remembering well-versed voice
intention

But,
not so much for me,
now able to choose health
almost every dawning day
and dusky night
but still struggling
for post-traumatic omnipotence
to thrive toward happiness
by empowered choice,
even if not enlightened voice
articulating all the many thankful ways
remembering well-cultivated rejoice.

What my gardening neighbor
and I speak of
feels like my dull
and darkly present
spatial stuck unchanging place

Which she
unlike me
can also remember
as having evolved through time
from current EarthTribe regenerating days
becoming nurturing seasons
within each annual surviving incarnation

Reversing back toward warm
welcoming first dawn light’s
empowering sacred
thriving invitation.

Healthy Life Integrity

I find a consistent
constitutionally protected value
hidden in Preambulation
and historical Declaration
reaffirming U.S. healthy democracy,
our Holy Grail.

Life
liberty
pursuit of happiness
well-being

During Enlightened Elder
1700s,
and still largely our worldview today
in deindustrializing MidWest
sweltering South
acid raining East
and, most mystically,
among empowered Californians
and Oregonians
and Washingtonians,

Healthy democratic intent
for integrity of humanity
supports HEALTHY life,
INTERDEPENDENT liberty,
and win/win pursuit
of resiliently SUSTAINABLE
happiness,
well-being,
peace.

This non-issue
of our constitutional republic,
with healthy,
growing
still-evolving
dynamic democratic intent,
purposed with sacred meaning
to nurture and support
HEALTHY life

Becomes more obvious
when considering what an “ethic of life”
would look like
if our eloquent ForeFathers
and wise GrandMothers
had UNhealthy life
as an economic
and political aspiration

Any quality of life,
regardless of how compromised
pathological
sinful
demented
unhappy
joyless
violent
pathological
ignorant
greedy
belligerent
traumatized
chronically stressed
dissociated
severed from a shared reality
of cooperative peace
and co-invested contentment

Could not be a consistent ethic,
or family morality,
of HEALTHY life
for all organic creations,

Not preferential for Straight White Men,
but a healthy polycultural democracy
to support healthy
interdependent
sustainable human lives
of all cultures,
inter-religious beliefs,
compassionate feelings,
nonviolent communications.

More recently,
ecologists
and creation theologists
and climatologists
have added an interesting footnote
to healthy democratic aspirations

If we would have
nutritionally
politically
economically healthy resilient lives,

Then we need
and want
to extend our democratically appreciated agenda

To include HEALTHY lives
of oceans,
forests,
river systems,
air,
bioregions,
food chain
interdependent
sustainable
life-care systems.

As far as I know,
my Republican friends
and family
share this expectation of our governors,
legislators,
executives,
court systems,
to seek HEALTHY life care

And, not so much
PATHOLOGICAL
diseased lack of caring
for all Earth’s sacred tribes,
species,
networks,
cooperative win/win
organically interdependent
sustainable health-care systems.

Brass WindChimes

Brass windchimes
ring melodic time
backed up
and down,
back
and forth
by boisterous breeze voices
blowing somewhat more silent choices
below

Before benighted rejoice
reprise to rise
and fall
wounded fail
yet again

Melodious inside intentions
to ring true
love’s restoring stories
of local justice circling
dynamic spirals inside
looking resounding out
virally
conspiratorially
anticipating healthier life within
Mother’s sensual gusts

Overpowering peaceful chimes
global resting
arresting rhymes
with powerful enculturing space
enlightened green spring out times
up happy,
healthy

Driven by bountiful breeze
and this northbound tidal
grey-blue iconic river
flowing drifts back
and surging forth,

Downstream
yet again back up
in-between
indigenous natured out
spirits in

Chiming outside colonizing industrial windows
noticing
re-connecting stressful winds
and anxious tides
of not so well chimed
compassionate green change
loudly rang

While icecaps,
empowering South
and enlightening North,
silently
soundlessly
melt integrity’s just right divine
and humane left

Eastern Earth greets Western Sun
chiming resonant hospitality
of eco/theo-logical nurturers
nourishing brass rounds
of resighted
respited
holy sounds.
