Wilderness Silence

Escape into wild silence
Slip away into still chilled morning
Follow each brown needle cushioned trail
toward Earth’s solace
murmuring river

Whispering from where we have come
to quietly drift
through renatured meaning

Float rippling forward
into love’s expansive watered mouth
without inhumane voice

Escape into ambient silence,
comforting respite

Leaving behind human,
even humane,
passion stories
persistent voices
plastered sounds;
but not tidal memories
wilderness fantasies
pleasure feelings
thick erotic choice

These accompany

Friendly and harder lessons
healing into muffled landscapes,
sea sounds,
surprising silent breezes
teasing past surfing sense

Suspensory imprinted
colored
wordlessly intoned
rhythmed patterns resonant
and dissonant,
spaciously sensualized

Needy quiet traces
relation tracks
footsteps hungry for most any thing
every one present
and unaccounted for

Embracing
inviting
wiccan silence

Slipping away

Hold Me

Hold me.

Hold me one last time
within your strong brown arms
and red-blooded heart.

Hold me to your chest
so fierce with lovely loyalty,
warm inclusion
not yet chilled by my exclusion.

Hold me this one last time
remembering all our years
and glad times before

Shading from memory
aching days and nights alone
without passion’s touch
on skin
in heart
beneath belonging mind
longing to live more fully in this body
worthy of graced embrace.

Wrap your arms
and legs around me,
your breath
and sweat secure me.

Hold me one last time
before I go
where we cannot again
feel ourselves together
warm skin to warm
too thin.

Hold me for our love
and not our loss.

Hold me this one last time
forever.

Earth Wrongs Autocracy

Perhaps we might all agree
that life’s healthy purpose regeneratively grows
positive energies
rising above, and yet within,
and both before and after,
degenerative mistrusts
of uneasy
and active distrusts
dis-eased
dis-organic
desecrating outcomes.

And, if self and other regenerative health
is the DNA and RNA stuff of positive organic living
and the polyculturally natural reason for today
and spirited hopeful reasons for and of tomorrow,
and all time’s future regenerations of species,
biosystemic climaxing landscapes
within global WholeEarth System ecological climates

Then co-relational democratic
inside/outside bilaterally organic governance
began long before enlightened anthropocentric conventions

Privileged associative freedom
to regenerate win/win connecting
reconnecting
re-ligioning power-with organic neighbors

Freedom from disempowering-over against
uneasy othered constraints,
positively reiterating WinWin anti-autocratic
democratic
root-systemic cooperatively empowering networks
of richly hued multicultures
building biosystemic resonant round songs
and fractal squared dances
for and of healthy regenerating Earth Rights.

And so it seems we are already,
as this global inter-religious anthrospecies,
some combination of unaware and woken Earth Rights Advocates,
re-membering our human-natural/divine-spirited
bodymind hypostatically polyvagal communion.

Together, each and every seasonal development year
for growing naturally healthy spirited wealth,
we regenerate another economic-political organic growth ring
around Earth’s healthy democratic constitution story

Re-ligious re-creation re-circling narratives
of surviving chaos
and thriving complexity.

Earth Rights Advocates
are also PolyCultural Rights and MonoCultural Wrongs Advocates
verbally facilitating globally cooperative ecoconsciousness,
multiculturally inter-religioning an Earth ReGeneration Party.

An organic Gaia Hypothesis perspective
invites all political policy parties
to listen and learn within this organic cooperative communion
for more robust democratic healthcare platforms

Setting aside older Win v Lose
inside v outside grace
zealously nationalistic models
worshipping a much too small
and degenerative monotheistic anthropocentrism
to care for our extended organic body and sacred blood family

Perhaps a cobinary AnthroMind/EarthBody bilateral Win/Win Game
would help resolve nationalistic issues of elitist autocracy
degenerating denials
dismissals
dissociations from taking unhealthy autocratic responsibility
for the emergently decadent
degenerative
desecrating
anti-organic Anthropocene.

Our kindergartens and colleges
could become ReGenerative EarthTribe Party sites
for playing Win/Win non-0 sum
deep inter-religious cooperative learning rites
of polyculturally panentheistic healthcare advocacy
without further Win v Lose 0-sum
defending yet more self-condemning
monotheistic anthropocentric pathology.

That is,
if we do agree
that life divinely appears
progressing toward healthy Earth Rights
inter-religious democracy
as death disappears humanity
regressing through dis-eased Earth Wrongs
nationalistic supremacy.

NonViolent Musicians

When he speaks
transparently
he feels co-passionate
as long as s/he appears
to vulnerably listen

Without Me v We risks
of retributive judgment
when he aims
to restore cultures
and climates of peace
through win/win reassessment

Which may be why
music feels easier to sing
resonantly
when compassionate audiences
dance along
resiliently

Brilliantly co-empathic
indigenous community communion rituals
of peak and valley love stories

Natural/spiritual wisdom circles
as old as
universally enlightened mind space
unfolding/refolding

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.

CoOperative Agency

They are friends,
I imagine,
Or perhaps unfamiliar
yet curious
neighbors.

These two seem to like
to lick
each other

And probably value public transparency
more than personal privacy

I wonder
how they became work out
and play in partners,
surprisingly athletic,
flexible,
and inventive

With minds
that began flirting,
Engaging bodies
now urgently culminating.

Benediction
for this newly heated
yet ancient
sacred communion

A warm summer kiss,
a shared soiled towel,
a sapient smile
in the shower.

MultiCulturing Gifts

I wonder
wander through sacred history,
in
and out again

Back
remotely far
before humanity,

When EarthTribes
were already compassionately gifted
with potential whole-sum divinity,

PanenTheistically expressed
today
in ecofeminist Earth’s great
rapturously gifted
economic ecology
of relationships
worth having
truth of resonating beauty.

I wonder,
back before religious anthrocultures
and sexual regenerating climates
were sensory
nonlinguistically
yet meaningfully alive,
then, later,
lately LeftBrain purposely separated
into Either Or
where previously RightBrain reigned
Both-And

Communicating severances
in a precisely dissociative way
away from sacred companionship,

As were sensuality
and healthy polycultures
of democratically inclusive communion

Long
long before Earth’s non-violent
verbalized communication.

I wonder
if, before Verbal Dominance
when religion
felt like communal reconnection,

All creatures here below
awoke riding on sacred Earth
below these timeless flowing clouds
accumulating land and seas
of rich communication
enveloped in resonant
musical companionship.

I wonder
if all EarthTribe asked,
invited
absorbed within
among each Other,
was nonviolent hospitality
in healthy democratic return
of wealthy
multiculturally religious
transcendently sensual
politically empowering communications
of economically enlightened
theo/eco-logical companions
celebrating co-empathic gifts.

Silent Sacred Spaces

I’m noticing
you’re not noticing
I’m starting to look for
what you’ve already heard
with anticipation
overpowering my internal anxious voice
with calm
and kind compassion

When Other disharmonious human voices
speak of win/win choices

Or sing
a right-handed dance
within my balanced EarthTribal range
of listening
for sacred silent choice.

I become
my still-maturing surprise,
replacing my “Other” anxiety,
awkwardness
disappointment

About unfocused AnthroVoice insecurities
in suffering Other’s compassion,
insufferable curiosity,
predative empathic touching,
yet igniting mellow multicultural waves
of resonant pastel sound,
resilient brilliant sight

And these in-between times
silent solitude sacred rests
between transparent syncopations
of impatient human sounds,
inhumane frowns

Not interacting with same room
or screen-time voices,
thoughts
verb-tainted feelings,

These soulful un-nouned bests
have, until recently,
invited anxious boredom,
apathy,
depression,
aching loneliness,
emotional apartheid,

While now
in this human sound silence
of co-redemption
I absently reach out
for deeply exploring
sounds of Simon/Garfunkel’s silence.

Negative and positive felt voices
provoking newly found choices
liberty of equanimity,
good humored curiosity about anxiety
stress
trauma triggers

Cooperatively reaching
for anticipating
future eco/ego therapy
indigenous healing
wisdom securing
conserving liberating
internal/external co-passions,

Smiles
and frowns,
ups
and downs,’
transcendent lights
and immanent powers,
remembered lives
projected loves
for capitalized risks
minimized by win/win nutritional opportunities
for nurturing silent
calm and kind
time outside/inside co-invested bliss.
