The Christian-Taoist Stands Down

I was baptized as a Christian,
once or twice.
It’s not so much that the baptism ritual malfunctioned
in some series of unfortunate events;
It’s more like Taoism as my primary ecopolitical health system,
or religion,
or metaphysic,
or whatever kind of evolutionary,
perpetually eisegetical-hypothetical,
label you choose to slap on the box
you decide to keep me in,
was (0)Riginally Intended as an ego-hyphenated eco-system.

That works out well for creating hybrids of anything cultural:
Christian-Taoist,
Judeo-Taoist,
Islamic-Taoist,
Zen-Taoist, although that would be highly redundant,
Hindu-Taoist,
Zeroist-Taoist, although, again,
be prepared to fall asleep
as metaphysically orthodox ethologists debate
whatever there is of any phylogenic difference
between the Yang and Yin positions
within that notnothing nondual hybrid.

So, as a baptized Christian-Taoist,
it’s easier to see syncretic bridges between cultural faith-learning systems
with those who do use the Christian label for themselves
and with those who would adamantly declare their enthusiasm to be,
and always and forever remain,
anything but Christian.

I run into this a lot with atheists,
who are also climate health activists:

No! I’m not a capitalist-fundamentalist Christian EarthRaper,
I’m an Atheist,
always with a capital A,
or I’m a Unitarian Universalist,
although these are more like UnTheists,
or I’m a Humanist,
or a Wiki of some nature-spirit nondualist-feminist
matriarchally self-other cooperative empowering-with-not-over persuasion.

So, being a Taoist,
when speaking with a Christian ecologist,
just means I’m a not YangLeft Dominant
or YinRight Dominant
Ego/Eco climate-health balancing
charter member of the Bodhisattva MindBody of Christ.

Not meaning to make that sound like a cake walk,
but I’m saying my Taoist sensory awareness
of nutritionally regenerate v degenerating evolution
of internal LeftEgo
and external RightSacred-Integral Eco,
Yang-Yin EcoSystemic (0)-sum Balance,
is about as multiculturally
and polypathically
PermaCulturally Design-ish
of co-arising nondual Climate Health
as I’ve been able to hunt and gather
during my polypathically extending Positive Psychological family journey,
so ecopolitically WinWin far.

I’m a Christian-Taoist,
coredemptive learning cooperative economies
means I’m always politically open to nutritionally-intended suggestions
for further regenerativity.

The Taoist Stands Up

So, yes, I’m a Taoist
A lotta’ people ask me about what that means,
to be a Taoist.

And, I usually ask
What do you mean,
what does it mean?
Who said it was supposed to mean anything,
or even everything?
You must be a notnot Taoist,
everything’s supposed to mean something.

Well, you’re always goin’ on about the bad-boy nihilists
and their WinLose economic and political games
of climate pathology
as if this is more dissonant noise,
so I guess I figured,
if you’re against nihilism,
then you have to be for some meaning or purpose,
maybe even some grand polypathically inclusive design,
ecologically sustainable repurpose,
who knows?
But, you know, something…
and not just nothing.

Oh, sorry.
I think you meant to ask me what I am for.
If you recall,
you asked what does it mean to be a Taoist,
originally
Yes?

Well, if you’re a Taoist,
and that means not a nihilist,
then aren’t those two ways of asking the same question
of your existential meaning?

Oh, Lord, I hope not!
Taoism is about as existential
as high school math is ecologically organic.

I’m not sure I follow either half of those organic chemistry equations,
but anyway,
are you avoiding my curiosity question?

Oh no!
Sorry,
yes, the question about what does it mean to me to be a Taoist?
Well, that’s the tricky wu-wei part,
there are an infinite number of ways I might define this (0)-soul
revolutionary-integrative-unitarian-syncretic-consilient-synergetic pie,
but, essentially,
if you realize that to become a Taoist
also means to notnot be a LeftBrain DominatingYang AntiEarth Taoist,
then you begin to RightBrain get the economic and political,
as ecological
and nutritional
and healthy
and climate health
and creation story of YangSpaceLeft/YinTimeRight
EcoBalancing Tao (0)’s SpaceTime
for a better Revolutionary TransMillennial History of Health Conjecture.

OK, there for a minute you had me,
but I still get hung up on the co-arising nondual ecosystemic geometry of zeroism stuff,
not to mention the equivalent resonance of Group with Game Theory.

Not to worry.
If any of that is important toward your own polypath,
then it’s also notnot ego/eco-balancing,
LeftYang with Elder Right Yintegral.
We’re all on the same DNA/RNA multiculturing
as polyculturingly nutritional evolutionary journey.

Well, no, I mean I’m not intending to necessarily join your Taoist Tribe.

That is fortunate,
as I’m sure you are much too busy
in your own notnot Taoist Left-Right climate health journey.
Hope everything zero-sum balances out for you,
sooner,
rather than more climate pathology later.

Talking Mirrors

I’m a fairly active charter member
of Connecticut’s Medical Marijuana Program,
qualifying because I’m also one of the oldest HIV+ survivors in the U.S.

In fact,
not a single cell within my entire organism
would have been brought to you without the miracles of chemistry.
So blame Big Pharma,
you would not be the first
but you might be the last.
You never know,
you could get lucky.
Find a bottom-line its all about me corporation
prepared to listen to people
as if we might become reasonable advocates for healthier climates,
rather than mere consumers of pathological therapies.

Anyway, I’ve been sick off and on,
mostly on,
since the beginning of November
so I’ve also been pretty much stoned.

Unfortunately, or fortunately, I’m not sure
Probably both.
I’m also probably the oldest HIV+ Taoist survivor
and Taoists always have to pretend both sides of the mirror
might have worthwhile reflective potential.
WuWei quasi-fortunately,
rather than being too sick with respiratory issues to get stoned,
I’m too stoned to remember I’m sick.

Despite being retired,
I don’t have time to be sick anyway,
in large part because my youngest of four kids
is a girl with wicked Oppositional Defiant Disorder;
a label she defies.
Not because she’s opposed to labels,
but because she thinks she is perfectly ordered
as the rest of us losers might better get with her program.

She likes PresidentElect Trump
because he looks and sounds familiar,
as prehensile grabby economic and political leaders
were meant to be.

For my young teenage daughter,
ODD is not a disorder,
it is a religion
into which she was baptized
by Fetal Alcohol Full Immersion
at a fairly first trimester young embryonic age.

From her I have learned
there fortunately is no wimpy God,
but we do have one hell of a fire-breathing feminist Goddess
when we refuse to help her clean her nightmare
she calls a bedroom.

I tried to point out the inconsistency
of supporting a PresidentElect
who also refuses to help us clean our planet,
but this, apparently, is the voice of a wimpy God
who does not,
or should not,
keep on talking to the Fire Goddess hand.

This morning I was helping her get ready for school,
combing out her spiky hair.
She’s part AfricanAmerican porcupine.
We were standing in front of a large wood-framed, beveled mirror
that looks, perhaps only because I’m stoned,
like something out of Snow White
associated with her StepMom,
the witchy queen with Oppositional Defiant Disorder.

My daughter loves Snow White,
probably because she bossed around the seven dwarfs
in their own home,
(a politically incorrect position I do not recommend you ever even think of trying to get away with)
and forced them to listen to her own crappy music preferences
at a full amphitheater range of ear-splitting volume.

Be that as it too loudly may,
I asked her if she ever talks to her mirror,
asking, Who is the fairest of them all?

Yes.

And, does the mirror talk back?

Yes. It says,
You need to clean your room!

That’s strange.
My mirror has been saying the same thing
ever since early November.

Its All In the ZeroZen PolyNomials

If facts can be reduced to polynomial information bits
then wisdom might be expanded through polypathic exformation bytes,
double-fractal octave-co-redemptive folding/unfolding
weaving/unweaving stages
of Left-geneticYang with Right-memeticYintegral
co-arising ecopolitically nondual trust
in co-ecologically strictured autonomic-affective
internal climate of health v pathology development.

(0)-sum investments in these biting facts of wisdom,
where we continue healthy-wealthy hunting and finding
no inductive-Right difference of feeling
that could make any possible deductive-Left ecological difference.

CoIntelligent living with others
as we would have others live with us
includes wisely ego-dying with others
as we would have others die as Allies
rather than competing Enemies.

Earth’s interior regenerational bliss
is also Ego’s degeneratively refining mutually cooperative purging
of monoculturing anthro-willfullness
LeftBrain cognitive dissonance
yielding to internalized
polypathic-DNA inspired
nature-spirit exegetically ecological messages
with multicultural-becoming wisdom,
in an of and through and for our Golden Left/Right BuddaAge
of Tao-Zen Interdependent(0)Empty Centering Rules
Rhythms of ReSonant ReGenerate ReSolutions.

Dear KKK

When you’re on top already,
speaking King of the US Mountain,
if you are among the ecopolitical elite
in comparison to those you would remain even more separated from
than is currently the case,
then your separatist position
is also a position to maintain and/or increase your comparative supremacy.

Only if you were a klan of black feminist lesbians and transgenders.
who just want to be left alone,
can you offer a mission statement favoring increased ecopolitical separation
without also taking a position of wanting to sustain or strengthen your comparative absence of supremacy.

Assuming you are still basically white males
under those sheets,
I believe you are mistaken in believing you are for more separation
between the races
and not also for continuing,
and, even better,
increasing your comparative supremacist ecopolitical position
with the help of social niceties like apartheid.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
On the other hand,
perhaps if you could recruit more broadly,
diversify your Klan to include the black feminist lesbians,
and transgenders,
to also begin receiving more than their fair share of this good society’s goods,
then that would certainly help your public image
in the racial-supremacist not-very-Christian
cognitive dissonance department.c

Permaculture Design Operetta

This Permaculture Design Operetta
comes out from within you
with universally acclaimed Grand Patriarchal Earth Rights
to sing in reverse harmonic rhythms and blues
with Full-Octave Matriarchal Earther Feminists Wronged,
marginalized in pre-millennial peace-maker roles
postmillennially re-inheriting the Good Society’s climate health revolution.

This divinely grand operetta
is also our ecological musical-comedy
about permacultural feminist cooperative networks
taking over Goddess Gaia’s Earth Worshipers,
baring buddha-breasts of WinWin PositiveFlow ReGenesis.

Tension builds in the First Act
as the Trump one-term administration is about to lose
to Bernie Sanders,
nominated by the postmillennialist 2020 Global EarthTribe EcoParty,
for more perfect revisions,
ominously networking online through a matriarchal WinWin flow-chart
of ecopolitical feminist psychologists
Permaculture Cooperative Network Designers.

These ultimate cooperators
are something of a socio-economic self-empowering on-line cooperative
where time-is-money gifted forward in a mutually owned (0)-sum economy
of regenerative evolution,
a subgroup within the regenerative evolution of our open-systemic WealthWithoutWalls
ecopolitical communication cooperative,
where who knows whom might say both-and what?

Followed reiteratively by a notnot double-binding reverse-hierarchical binary-fractal-octave 4D EcoConscious
unfolding of TaoTime’s speed of dualdark light
revolutionary equivalence
polypathically reminiscent, somehow,
with P = N(NP) bilaterality,
for ecotherapeutically balanced resonant (0)-soul sums
of humane-ego with divine-eco minbody nondual co-arising bicameral dipolarity.

So, Sander’s 2020 ReVision
will be undermined by wiki feminist cooperative lesbian bodhisattva witches?

Well, more understoried than undermined,
more subversive than reversive,
rooted in matriarchal full-octave circle Allies.
Basically all the other marginalized rejects
from the Obama Administration,
except a lot more transgender polypathic leadership.
You now,
for their bicameral co-empathic skills
with cooperative economics and political guilds,
and barn buildings,
and quilt-making,
and how to raise your own goats.
That kind of thing.

Oh, well,
the tension builds, right?

Yes!
In the Second Act of our transubstantiating diastatic operetta,
we hear a great deal of squabbling about who is more politically correct
by wishing they could have run Sanders against Trump
four years earlier because,
with the first major party nominated woman running instead,
they felt Sander’s more feminist-friendly platform
was more exciting
than actually voting for a white woman
without sharing their idea of a proper feminist ecopolitical agenda
for matriarchal cooperatives
rather than more patriarchal WinLose competitions
between too anemically Yinnish Democrats
and too vastly Yangish Republicans.

Well, yes,
that sounds like a veritable slug fest
in a lusty mud pit.

Oh no, not at all.
These stories all evolve within a more peaceable jungle
of wiki wildness,
if only because of their responsibility for holding open freedom space
across such a diverse polyglot of other marginalized cultures,
recently freed to find each other
and therefore more easily capable of refining their cooperative strategies
due to on-line dialogue and ecopolitical discernment platforms
unfolding both-and WinWin ecological priority sites and chairs and positions
where they could organize all their time
and financially cooperative (0) interest investments
in each bartering other
and their extending EarthTribe intentional matriarchal families.

Meanwhile,
Trump, and his Cabinet of EcoAliens,
was adding anti-EPA fuel to their corporate fires.
Nor did it help that they were rather too toxically
anti-education,
anti-health,
anti-security,
anti-women,
anti-anybody not white-straight-male,
and, of course, anti-Islamic,
and then there was that purity test
where you couldn’t get back into the US
unless you could prove your lineage back toward the Pilgrims,
and not back to the Africans,
and not back to the Native Americans,
and this all felt rather arbitrary to the Supreme Court
and caused four years of nothing but squabbling
about who was going to take over what,
and how soon,
while, meanwhile,
the climate and landscapes of Earth Goddess Worshipers
continued to unravel.

I can barely sit still
in anticipation of your Third Act.
Will Bernie Sanders sing the final aria
of 2020 cooperative ecopolitical revision?
I’m not sure he is quite large enough to carry that tune.

Not by himself,
but remember,
this operetta is of permacultural design,
which is an inclusive self-governance process
toward nutritional health.
For this we need a full-octave gospel choir
not possible without an on-line nutritional performance platform.

OK, so I think I have the basic plot-line.
Now, how about costuming?

Minimalist, of course.

That sounds interesting!
depending on casting, of course.
We wouldn’t want to be confused
by The Emperor Who Wore No Clothes.

Just Doin’ Our Job

It’s all frustratingly LeftBrain relativistic,
even nihilistic in its darker
ruminating
paranoid about chaotic outcomes form,
said Einstein’s post-millennial ghost.

So its all synergetic fractal 4D equivalent SpaceTime,
said Fuller,
in co-arising nondual P = N(NP)/2 (0)-Core response.

Interesting you should find it so,
but I am much too busy in my monologues
written up and published as Thought Experiments,
not particularly hoping to require poetic license,
to read your sociometric political free verse,
might say Einstein
in E = c-cubed reverse time holonic dipolar dialectals.

Empty Time is our logical precursor to three-dimensional Interdependent Space,
reminds Right Brain,
speaking of Left deductive dominance
and dissonance
regarding dipolar dysfunctional dissonance,
defined as WinLose less than WinWin confluence
as ecologically nutritious competence,
hunting and gathering RNA, then DNA,
regenerative solidarity confidence.

Too often sub-optimized by premillennial Yang-Space power dominance over
RightBrain time and space
and sometimes too Yin BiLater-Temporal flowing vacuously along,
too yin-recessive to notice
that to LeftBrain
eternal life would be fullness of interdependent time,
while RightBrain ecoconsciousness,
when severed from LeftBrain Yang-languaged influence,
eternally remains flowing,
enlightening synergetic
swimming in polypathic timelessness of longing
to belong within 3D Yang again.

Differentiation of Space
integrating extended EarthTribe evolving-regenerating families,
relatives,
relationships of fractal-octave constant 4D Relativity,
Left/Right felt and comprehended as time’s bilateral passing,
from past regeneratives
toward future confluent regenerators;
from referent experience
through referees of future climate regenerativity assumptions,
as if positive,
letting go of pre-millennial LeftBrain degenerating dominance,
as too Yin-repressive for postmillennial today
to reach notnot YinYin wu wei abundance equivalent with Yang.

No thing could be relative
without at least two some things,
unless a verb about prime (0) enthymematic relationship
and not just a no thing noun,
said RightBrain’s flowing collateral heart chakra
through LeftBrain’s empowering Mindbody naming enforcement
of deductive strictures,
reductive ecological importance
for further healthy-wealthy
DNA self-optimizing
health as positive regenerativity
and polynomial pathology as notnot negative correlational degenerativity.

Nothing differentiating
without (0) yintegration,
no relativities of energy
without ergodic rhythms
with synergetic purpose,
sings Left with Right Brain Bodies
in DNA with RNA solidarity,
sung through a co-arising nondual (0)-soul fractal-octave key.

Why should I care about nothing’s primally bilateral definition,
asked RightBrain’s heart chakra,
How could this matter to me,
to us?
Earth’s climate is stuck in decomposingly competitive
run-away
anti-ecosystemic unsustainable mode.
We have refined the RealTime right now global ecopolitical issue,
with concomitant depressions and repressions
of matriotic-patriotic resonance,
balance,
co-empowering equivalence,
why waste further precious EarthTime beating and bleating
about why and/or why not P=NP,
3DSpace=BiCameral/BiLateral (0)-sum TaoTime, etc;
all your (0) sum geometric systems of regeneratively cooperative networks
mean nothing to me.

Well, I realize that,
responded somewhat startled,
sometimes even Old-School marm grumpy,
LeftBrain EcoLinguistic Therapist.

So that’s all you’ve got?
responds RightBrain YinYin.
I’m paranoid about your WinLose ecopolitical death wish nonsense
on a global scale,
and within my own private NotNot Positive Psychology
equivalent both/and complex either/or ambivalence,
looking at your LeftBrain cognitive-affective dissonance
about me!
And I’m supposed to be your open mindbody (0)-sum
universal heart chakra,
and all you have in response to my deepest vocational dismay is:
Well, I realize that!?

No, I have more to say
but you seem to be on a roll,
so I’m trying to listen through your further hyperventilated elaborations
about our love thang goin’ on,
or Climate Health,
in your more agapically integral mind with feeling body,
we might agree to call optimally best
when dipolar co-arising
as negative-reverse double correlationally appositional,
Our Yang/Yin (0)-soul DNA-encrypting Selves.

Hmmm…OK.
So, let’s hear it.

Well,
I’m just deep learnin’
so give me an ecologically correct break here,
I’m tryin’ to polypathically comprehend
what you love so much
about our mutually-held ego/eco-political consciousness,
in that big openly interdependent RightBrain Ecologic of yours.

Our history regenerates with 4D WinWin Yang opposition
to LoseLose Yin,
dipolar co-arising
reweaving
recreating
SpaceTime’s (0)-sum synergetic healthy wealth,
nutritional fertility,
embryonically matriarchal RightBrain Divinely Dominant
emerging toward our
Patriarch-Not(NotMatriarch) PermaCulturally full-hearted LoveChild.

You should know,
as I recall,
through all my PreMillennial LeftBrain Dominant diastolic time,
I have been waiting to virally explode
our CoArising NonDual (0)-Soul EcoPolitical Health EcoLogical Climax,
Promise
that life is best
where mind and rich-hearted body
always play (0)-sum ecopolitical Win-Deductive LeftPower
to Win EcoLogical YinYin’s
notnot beating heart chakra,
where you best be feelin’ ecopolitically diastatic,
and you and I both know
politics is all about reconnecting,
shared optimally full-octave multicultural agapic
healthy-wealthy regenerative sex.

See, I knew it.
I knew this was all about
putting our cooperative investments
where your most nutritiously healthy mouth has been.

Yes, but our Creation Story
is also about digesting Gaia’s Eastern InterdependentYang
co-arising EmptyYin,
Health as Wealthy Wisdom Outcome Stories.
Love for ReCreating epic operatic
DNA strings of and for further HumaneEgo-DivineEco double-binding Comedy,
of Left-Right quasi-functional WinWin aspiring family
within SpaceTime 4D RealTime co-aspiring dialectals,
co-polypathically assumed
for and of and through co-arising dipolar ecopolitical us,
doing the best we can
to extend our Golden Rule
toward future Climate Health Right-Left EcoBalancing Revolutions.

Sorry, I’m still having trouble hearing a diastatic slow-growth pulse.

I have no Sirius doubt.

Donald’s Dynasty Designs

I hear Donald Trump
would love to bring to Republican plutocracy
what Abraham Lincoln represented for civilly warring democracy,
but that anti-enslavement resolution
is too hard for me to focus and sustain
in Trump is DivineTrump Land.

What remains most easily
is Donald Trump
as a Ronald Reagan rerun,
a bit of black and mostly relentlessly white,
although not really quite.

Perhaps if Ronald
had been born as comfortably
as Donald,
then he too would never have worked with his body,
and not so much played with his hands,
to make an honest Abe-ish living.

Unlike Donald,
Ronald actually had experience
working for his mortgage.
Well, almost anyway.
Ronald at least had to act as if he could work to make a living,
and on occasion actually remember his lines on cue,
or even deliver four syllables all in one big mean word,
while Donald invests more in one syllable gestures
at least with half our resident population.

And, Abe had some adolescent and young adult experience
with manual labor
and at least cooperatively owned his own attorney at lawyering business,
while for Ronald,
much less Donald,
these were acting skills
as comforting as heroic horse back riding.

So, no, Donald,
you’re no Abe Lincoln,
and only in your happiest imagination
would you be as good at play acting President
as was Ronald.
You’re just another plutocratic Donald,
not even economically effective at playing Republican.

I wonder if Attila the Hun
was the logical progenitive cause of Republicans,
as Donald Trumps their final post climate-health conclusion;
most illogically anachronistic
to use white over black not quite film stars with patriarchal stripes
when so much polypathic full-color talent
waits in more multiculturally fresh-aired wings.

Dear Eve, and not so much Adam

Dear Eve and not co-mentor Adam,
solo writer of The Clitoral Monologues,

Love your book.
Just one suggestion,
switch the title to
The Clitoral-Penile EcoPoliTickle Dialogues.

Feminist to feminist monoculturing monologues
make OK theater,
perhaps even the first feminist nurturing ecopolitickle opera,
if you were to also become gifted with writing songs
and choreographing exotic clitoral-clitoral dances,
but your wisdom becomes more cooperatively powerful
on an ecopolicultural nondual co-arising stage,
both clitoral yintegral
and penile yang-poignant thrust
of regenerative timing;

Our wisdom nurturing, anthrocentrically healthy, selves,
reweaving evolutionary predators invading parasites
into hunters loving gatherers
of heathiest wise nutrition.

Probably strategically better to respond to The Penis-Only Monolonging
Business as Competitively MineIsBigger Usual,
with Clitoral-Penile synergy
of wiser transgenderal politickling investments.

Preparing for the GRE

It was my plan to set aside this past week

to prepare for the Quantitative Graduate Record Exam.

 

A week ago this seemed like a big number

for ample review,

time set aside from more typical U.S. autumn events,

like electing a white male economic supremacist for President,

after having taken a 12 year break

from all those irrational remainders.

 

I have always thought math should be revolutionary,

climatic,

resonantly resolving like rainbow harmonies of scale,

profoundly correlational with geometric truths

as algebraic beauty,

and I suppose it may be all those good things

yet this week math feels suspiciously snarky and sinister,

replete with far more ways to go wrong

than right.

 

So today I was thinking maybe I shouldn’t bother

with these mysterious Quantities of testing.

Although I did well forty years ago

and didn’t know any more or less

about mathematical machinations then

than now.

 

Or so I thought

until I actually opened up the GRE review section.

When did math become so monochromatically dull,

devoid of plot

and anything resembling metaphysical charisma?

 

Soon I found the verbal questions

much more edifying.

 

Well, OK, not really that,

but more entertaining than watching formulas dry

and principles march in relentless mind-numbing LeftBrain dominant lock-step.

It took years of ecotherapy to overcome

white male LeftBrain dominance

and now, so late in life,

discovering I don’t even miss it

any more or less than zero-sum WinLose economics.

 

But, I think I will visit the Quantitative section

day after tomorrow

Say goodbye to old friends

I’ve never had occasion to use

or abuse

due to relentless negative correlational neglect.

 

It might be fun

to see if I guess as well as I used to

when I was still young enough

to believe metric right or wrong could possibly matter.

 

Now I know it’s just not true

except for statistical analysis,

which is at least as much about

the politics of subjective Electoral College economics,

as objective rules of fair and accurately cooperative procedures,

verified as reified by all.
