Maturing Up Together

When you hear justice
do you also listen for responsive mercy?
Or are you more likely to feel merciless revenge
against uncivilized behavior
swelling vibrant adrenaline
baptizing your self-righteous bloodstream?

If revenge is your best defense
against chaotic complexities of anti-social behavior,
If punitive humiliation is this justice you would mentor,
live by,
protect,
then you will be an often disappointed,
and disappointingly ineffective,
parent,
and would best stay far away
from anything in law enforcement
and civil defense,
and gun permits.

Advocates and defenders of justice for all
are deep lovers of intentions and behaviors
positive humored
seeking their notnot negative unbalancing
of empty cleansing rituals including Society’s ecopolitical liturgies,
obsessive-compulsive demoralizing ruminations,
ruinations,
ramblings and echoes of great and small climatic transitions
quaking Earth’s moral imagination
steeped in Anthro cultures and histories,
kind and not-unkind.

Justice without mercy
is like reactivating love without peace,
like trying to actually mentor love
without internal and interdependent contentment
that we are in this life together,
all both guilty and innocent of most everything one might imagine,
until we fall apart
to reweave yet another new day,
with notnot strictured Elder shadows,
mercifully thrown together
as not-not fully grown regenerates.

Bad Humors Create Victims

Good Humors Create Healers

Humorless weaponed officials
applying laws
to challenged and challenging
unarmed natures,
is like expecting a rabid rattlesnake
to advocate with and for patience,
understanding through merciful listening,
to apply active love’s empathic trust,
which no just law, or practice thereof, could prohibit.

The truth of complex situations,
so necessary to uncover for wise application of our ethical codes
for ecopolitical behaviors,
is best accessed by vulnerability of co-empathic trust,
active listening,
Basic Attendance,
as is intelligent good humor.

Loss of humor’s mutual equanimity
is an ominous spiritual and natural sign
Yet another rabid rattlesnake
with too little more moral intelligence.

If you are feeling like delivering toxic venom,
rather than inviting kindness in return,
then probably best to stay home
and curl up on a warm rock.

Hard-hearted criminal intent
to neglect and abuse others
is not softened or redeemed
by anything less or more than orthopraxis of loving kindness
with a smile, as possible.

Those who expect citizens to behave civilly,
best mentor what they would optimally hope to see
on our streets and roads
and life’s Business As Usual highways
and byways.

Front-line customer service to those suspected,
or even known,
to struggle with sociopathic tendencies,
cannot be optimally effective
by treating them to further misdemeanors of humorless
cold-blooded
sociopathic
paranoid rabidity.

Are you in our shared health business,
or in our anger/fear pathology too-busyness,
or both?
If both,
which vocation seems to bring you,
and the rest of us,
better ecopolitical outcomes?

Conversations in ConScience

Welcome, friends, into this day.
I see we are wearing our Scientist hats today.

John Wheeler: We are the sun’s way of thinking about itself.

Wow, that’s truly cosmic, or kosmic; probably both.
I don’t disagree,
although I do feel slightly used,
and didn’t you leave someone out of our eco-identity loop?
Seems more like we are the sun and Earth’s ways of thinking about ourselves.
Planet Earth became one of the sun’s ways of decomposing it’s less hot self,
and we are Earth’s way of thinking about Her with His nondual regenerative Selves.

Robert Anton Wilson: the universe acts like a chess game
in which the player on the other side remains invisible to us.
By analyzing the moves,
we can form an image of the intellect behind them.

The intellectual image I see forming,
and how about you too maybe?
seems to be fractal-holonic dipolar appositionally structured
to co-arise continuous grace of ecopolitical flow
as ecological full-color-chemistry-fragrant-taste health temporal fold/unfold memes
designing prescriptions for language
as strictures (Julian Jaynes) for bicameral intelligent logos lenses
hoping to continue with more health and less pathology,
like RNA and DNA, for regenerate example.

Steven Weiss: The question ‘Do you believe in astrology?’
is like asking someone if they believe in art.’

Yes, and asking if we believe in the power of love, and health,
and prosperity.
To all the above,
where power of time invested
produces outcomes of happier healthier futures,
faith is not asked where evidence has already become forthcoming.

Rob Brezsny: astrology at its best roots us in the poetic language of the soul,
and isn’t blindly submissive to the values of the rational ego.
It’s here to liberate our imaginations
and encourage us to think less literally
and to visualize life as a mythic quest.

I know nothing about astrology,
but, with a few omissions of “the”
which is nearly invisible in my poetic language of soul,
and some possible additions,
I might also suggest:

Astronomy at its best
roots us in poetic language of ecoconscious soul,
not blindly submissive to LeftBrain’s deductive-reductive values.
The ecology of starlight
and dualdark cosmology
is here to liberate our RightBrain imaginations
and encourage us to think less thinly,
to visualize mythic life as light-quest,
already outlined in planet spacetime spirals
as our revolving
regenerating
reiterating
redundant, in function if not form,
recreation story.

Poetic language
is language of Left/Right cooperative discernment,
bilaterally conscient
dialectic souls
organically dancing-waving rings
of and for stardust’s famously bemused plasmatic light.

Heaven’s HotHouse Humor

It’s not true
that Original Taoist Laotse
did not say
Laughter in response to his teachings
was his outcome indicator of deepest nature-spirit-mystery
comprehension.

It’s not true
that laughter could be disassociated from
agapic bliss
or erotic love.

It’s not true
that laughter can feel any distinction
worthy of a label difference
between erotic bodies and agapic minds,
nor did Laotse.

Where the body’s erotic love and economic terrors lead,
the political mind goes with and as and for and from.

Where mind’s agapic love
and political fears and angers merge,
eco-normic body value-transfers,
willingness to invest and divest,
go with and as and for and from.

How could erotic Yang historical-political nature
ever become separated from Yin’s spiritual-eco-normic agape?
except for decomposing laughter’s cosmic heath insurance issues
and promise of deeply discounted reassurance rates.

Growing Polypathic Students

“I am circling around love,
around the throbbing hum,
and I have been circling for thousands of days,
and I still don’t know if I am a wounded saint,
or a rainy dawn,
or a creation story.”
Rob Brezsny, in Pronoia

You know the term ionic?

Balancing, like energy finding its most neutral point of stable self-perpetuation.

Yes, so dynamically bionic action across some unstable boundary,
relational threshold,
frontier of self and other rediscovery.

Ionic stasis is the objective of bionic dynamic transactions.

Yes. So you know the term iconic?

Like a symbol of, yet also in and with some systemic quality
of which it is a participating part.
Like a funnel cloud
for and within revolutions of recycling reiterating ecosystems.

Yes, dynamically polypathic self-regenerative and self-referencing
across some stabilizing frontier of co-empathic trust
within a foundational, seminal truth-exegeting system
of deductive-inductive,
yang-yin reiterating structure,
like uracil of and for cytosine,
hemoglobin from with chlorophyll’s universal functions
double-binding dipolar defining rooting-branching ionic structures.

Iconic language generates binomially dynamic interfacing verbal distinctions
between subjects in self-perpetuating relationship with each other.

Binomials?

Like in an out, up and down.
Appositional dipolarities that co-arise, mutually define.
You can’t have me without a you,
an out without an in,
a tomorrow without a yesterday,
a karmic consuming cause, without a grace-producing effect.

So each bit of iconic polynomial (P) information
is also binomially dynamic language.
Each P=N(NP) truth statement
includes an appositional notnot truth statement, implicated,
as in David Bohm,
bilaterally concaved, as in Bucky Fuller.

You know the term ironic?

Where an outcome feels like it’s just the opposite of what was anticipated
as an objective?

Yes, like to become so fluidly flexibly stretched yin
that you eventually develop a more ionically stable
and healthy Yang/Yin balancing strength of power-over/with-together
co-arising.

And to become so polypathically chaotic that you begin to discover binomial rhythms
regenerating complex rhythm patterns within and of Earth’s ecologic,
ionic recyclings of yinnish energy functions
into more lasting tensile strength of Yang-ergodic co-gravitating forms.

Ionic language with ironically evolving outcomes
of polypathic comprehension,
binomial Left-Right Brain enlightenment,
dynamic ecoconsciousness.

Like humanity as sacred embryonic icon of Earth’s ecological divinity.

Like LeftBrain ego-swelling as ecological bionic balance shrinks
and EcoIdentity of RightBrain truth-beauty balance excelling
as egocentrist identity evaporates into binomial confluence.

Bionic humane icons of ionic irony,
divinely polypathic.

NotNot

Who’s there?

You.

You who?

Yoohoo shouting through a transparently dualdark notnot cosmological divide,
boundary door
within a binomially co-arising mindbody universe.

Nondual dipolarity is as difficult to deductively grasp
as is notnot.

Because nondual notnot function
is not for yangish grasping,
but for and of yin-flow stretching ecoconsciousness.

We recycle love,
wounded rainy dawn saints
recreating creation stories.

GoldFish WetDreams

So here’s my big insight.
My two cents worth,
which will remain worth only a penny
unless it somehow aligns with your penny
for thoughts and shared feelings.

What if we put our human nature genie
back in Earth’s home-nature bottle?

OK, already I hear Fundamentalists about the great transcendent Sacred Divide
between humanity and monkeys and trees,
and even more so between human biosystems
and any generic ecosystem,
like a river,
or four growing seasons
in a regeneratively nutritious healthy year.

But, if you could just hang in there for a minute
or two
and let yourself wildly imagine theoretical implications
of looking conjecturally at all of creation as one integral Creating Nature;
as a Thought Experiment, maybe?

Just pretend you’re following along in Einstein’s brilliant kind of heuristic exercise.
Enjoy your ride a bit more.
We’ll get back to the Cross and the Ballistic Terrorist Terrors later.

Maybe a lot later.

So we have one united, more or less, nature
and now we have two words sharing a prefix,
rooted in the concept of “home” or “household”,
economics,
the study of human value transactions, expansions,
recessions,
stalemates,
monopolies,
competitive rabidity and cooperative gift-nutrition-forward rhythms
and seasonal patterns.

Then we have this newer word, ecology,
for the study of nutritional through pathological relationships,
transactions,
weedish monocultural eruptions,
empathic trusts and mistrusts and mutually immune distrusts
within Nature’s ecosystemic organic health lives
and deaths of history.

Yes, you see where my natural organic mindbody is going with this.
In that no one seems quite clear about just what economic science does
very well,
that could not also apply to ecological systems more generically,
maybe if human nature is just…you know,
a slightly demented portion of Earth’s econature,
then we might regain an important clue
about our “home team” ecological nutritional
and eco-dissonant pathological value exchange patterns
and rhythms.

All this, by simply remembering that ecosystems
gave evolutionary-historical-cultural progenitive birth
to biosystems,
including AnthroTribe,
as divine Light gave birth to humane Word.

So ecosystemic development
is also egosystemic healthy wealthy regenerative development,
or ego-suboptimizing degenerative under-development,
sweeping across enculturation’s history
of redundant multicultural languages
and side-by-side specialist paradigms.

And, now we can all just learn to cooperatively get along
and live happily
and healthily ever after.

Good.
I feel better.
My job here is done.
I can rest in ecosystemic peace and quasi-justice.

Honey,
unplug the phone
and fire up the hibachi.
Let’s grill sweet corn and vegeburgers.

And, by the way,
you remember what Bill Maher said about THC
“What? They’re afraid we’ll be smarter than we really are?”

Well,
I wonder if that’s similar to why an economist might resist thinking
of ones’ AnthroSelf as an ecologist wanna-be,
but only studying the elephant’s capital-mind-head investments,
as opposed to a full nutritional mindbody analysis,
because if eco-normists were expected to confine their scientific conjectures
to ecological-evolutionary models,
then they might be smarter about forecasting the future cooperative values
of sustainable WinWin health-power
than is your average MedicinePower Person.

I’m frankly not sure what these two insights have to do with each other,
but it seemed to make sense to my goldfish,
who just upped and died
with a smile on her face,
so we grilled that golden ruled ecosystem too.

I’m sure that’s what she would have wanted,
but primarily because,
had our situations been reversed,
that would have been my highest and best
nutritious recycling baptism-dream as well.

BareBones EcoPolitical Zeroism

Radicals of PostMillennial Zeroism,
like Fundamental-Basic PreMillennial Taoism:

Yang presents unmitigated monopolistic political omnipotence.

Yin hides totally purged (recessed)
economic flat-line absence of positive nutritional flow trend,
omni-polypathic nonpresent exformed.

Just as Nature abhors these primal vacuums of appositionality,
there is no such thing as either of these two extremities,
just as there is no such thing as YangSpace
without Yin’s bilaterally evolving notpast-notfuture NOW time.

And, their divinely humane ecopolitical stage
balances MidWay Wu Wei
issuing advent of M.L. King’s (et. al.)
Beloved Climaxing Cooperative Community,
Family,
EarthTribe,
and any other polypathic ecological system
we might care to nondually and multiculturally co-arise together.

Our new democratic-plutocratic healthy wealth
of Zero-Soul-Sum-Core-Axial-Integral ecopolitical revolutions.

Extreme Unction

Today I have been comparing and contrasting Bernie Sander’s and Donald Trump’s political and economic motives
for seeking their respective Party nominations.

Senator Sanders and Chief Corporate Executive Officer Trump
began with intent to become The Nominee,
we might presume.
But is that it?
What would a win mean exactly
for our shared ecopolitical future?

Sanders seems more transparent
in response to these questions,
while Trump appears more articulate
about what he prefers to not lose.

Sanders,
going back to his decision to launch his Presidential aspirations,
hoped to influence his Democratic Party’s national political-economic nutritional depth
for stronger multicultural empathy-trust
and more effective investment
in global ecological health.

Did Trump possibly hope to influence the National Republican Party’s platform,
economic agenda,
in a surgically opposite insurrection?
To raise our mutual economic immunity walls
toward further monocultural,
monopolistic,
monochromatic outcomes?
To end democratic humane equivocation
between competitive economics as usual
defeating more cooperative ecological investment
of public dollars and imagination
to improve multicultural regeneratively flowing circulation
of Earth’s goods and beauties?

Sander’s exegesis of evolution
as “Might makes right.”
translates to
We mightily consider this
and we mightily consider that
to derive together more therapeutic balance.

Trump’s “Might makes right.”
is of the Either-Or Orthodox Tradition,
not Sander’s newer ecopolitical might
means maybe some of all of the above,
a more Dialectical Discernment Tradition
of strength through organic fluidity,
as contrasted to mechanical stasis.

From today’s perspective,
it appears the Senator,
while not having won nomination,
does point out specific ecopolitical Wins
within the National Democratic Party’s agenda,
which were significant to his original intent
for seeking nomination.

But, what about CEO Trump’s wins to date?
He won the nomination of the Republican Party
but has he thereby enjoyed greater,
or suffered lesser,
influence on his Party’s marketable platform?
Has he increased or decreased Republican political with economic coherence
toward a healthier-happier future
for richly diverse residents,
both those who can vote,
and those who have not yet even been born?
All those presumably future potentiating Republicans.
What legacy would Trump leave for the long-term health
of his favorite Republic’s future?

Did Trump, or Sanders,
enter the race for delegate votes
hoping to win the hearts and minds of our multicultural society
to a new post-millennial age of political and economic cooperation
inviting a more peaceful co-empathic climate of mutual trust
and co-investment in our polyculturing, evolving health
deepening,
resonating more powerfully flexible resolutions
to support these uniting states of mind and body
unto perpetuity?

Or was Trump or Sanders more clear about what he could not
and would not tolerate with humility–to lose
his ambitions for capital-centric egopolitical competition
to Win over Losers
not plutocratic enough to assuredly purchase his Party
not even positive enough to assure Republicans or Democrats
that God will smile again on those who have accumulated more
by giving back less co-investment.

In God We Trust
to hoard our mess
and health our co-invest.

Trumping U.S. Political Health

Not that I’m such a great fan,
but I was just now taken by surprise
to read the Republican Nominee for U.S. CEO
has somehow raised questions about his mental health.

Really!?

I live in the U.S.
I have questioned the mental health of any candidate
for elected office
hoping to live with mental health in Washington, D.C.
This question has been on my mind
for about as long as I could spell Washenton and Columbian.

This question has evolved more recently.
Now I ask if this candidate presents
more bipolar passive-aggressive
or just full-out psychotic-rabid?

Usually we get at least one of each
here in the U.S.,
which could be why we continue with more of an angry red plutocracy of wealth
than a cool green democracy
of, by, and for, cooperative residents of mental health.
