Speaking From Felt Experience

Enjoying Earth’s promised land
of compassionate
multicultural communion,
we share a preference for deep
rich soil
and fertile green-blue
resonating surf

As our bodies adjust
to rocky and prickly
either me
or not me space

And our minds flow
back and forth
through gooey both “me”
and organic neurosensory “we”
peace searching times
of glad/bad memory,
healthy peak and unwealthy valley
remembering felt body trauma
and mindfully resilient therapies

Inhaling Earth’s past sacred unions
Exhaling into conjoined future
compassionate communion.

These reflections came to mind
this morning
as I recalled a recent clergy question:

“What did you FEEL
when you first read
this proposal for a change
in our corporate
orthodox
Universal Salvific
and Unitarian CoRedemptive
liberated feminist tradition.”

I remember listening for neuro-sensexually
enlightened language
for distinguishing core
empowered/disempowered Feelings
primally limited to:

Glad-anticipating win/win peak mind/body experiences
Bad-anxious about lose/lose dualdark valley experiences
Sad-depressed about my own win/lose long-term chances
Mad-about suppressed short-term survival
odds against overpowering PatriarchalGod’s
timeless dispassion.

My gladness trying to thrive
despite an unholy trinity
responding to trauma history
of multigenerational peak/valley surfing
change

Transitions
in glad health opportunities
reforming bad unease
sad disease
mad missing ease
invoking dissociative
neuro-sensexual despair
informing future opportunities
for compassionate repair.

Out of twenty
LeftBrain verbal dominant responses
to this spirited natural feelings question,
only two mentioned feelings
underlying
predicting positive
and negative
and ambivalent thoughts.

One said both glad about opportunity
for deep communal dialogue
and sad about lowly lay victims
speaking against too powerful and unenlightened
religious professional orchestrations

Us v them rhetoric
creating a polarizing culture
of win/lose
0-sum
closed-off
competitive
destabilizing trauma

Lack of EarthPeace
and Restorative Justice
in the deep rich soil
and fertile green-blue surf
of nature-spirited communion
opportunities for peak dialogical experiences
of LeftMind/RightBody
enlightened/empowering
FatherSun/MotherEarth co-passionate
revival.

Another wise woman elder responded
with “confused”
which encompasses,
without resonantly resolving,
all of Glad and Bad
Sad and Mad
chaotic flowing mind
feeling toxically disembodied
from sacred healing peace
restoring EarthTribe Justice
co-passionate mission statements
EarthTribe healing vocations.

What no one said
was “compassion”
for the romantic-comedy of peak experienced Glad
and the traumatic-tragedy of dark valley experienced
Bad’s
short-term Mad
and long-term chronic Sad
Lose/Lose absence
of healthy
enlightened
messianic minds

Surfing through empowered
co-redemptive neurosensory
bodhisattva bodies
of spiritual/natural
mental/physical
co-passionate communicators

Win/win naturally resilient
co-mediating spiritual practicers
rooted in peak experiences
of comprehensive synergetic feelings
more resiliently Glad
than dispassionately Bad

Speaking our restorative justice
free and co-responsive win/win
searching truths
to patriarchal/capitalist
win/lose systemic trauma.

Weapons of Trauma Defense

When personal narcissism
and tribal autism
choose our words
as hurting
threatening
weapons of trauma defense

Rather than choosing wealth
of healing tools
for compassion’s therapeutic unfence

We soon find
that no one cares
to impatiently listen
outside our partisan walls

For whatever future win/win kindness
and EarthCare forgiveness
we cannot trust
will last.

Religion and Other Strange Passions

Religions,
and other strange passions
exotic
and erotic
and hypnotic,
are at their healthiest natural
and safe wealthiest spiritual
best

Reconnecting compassion
between yesterday’s remembered
conservational enlightenment
and tomorrow’s anticipated
liberating empowerment
restoring EarthPeace healthy wealth.

A peak spiritually experienced Warrior
dances.

A peak nature experiencing Muse
sings
of sensexual joy
in colorful
and fragrant play
thrival

Conserving cautionary work
for anthroprivileged survival
with birds
and frogs
and insects
and other mammals
giving peaceful voice
to health resonant choice
to mind/body rejoice.

A peak nature spirited Sage
sings while dancing
and thinking about reconnecting

All these thoughtful feelings
with healthy timeless resonance
and pathological
closed down dissonance

And wisdom
to resiliently search
for inside cooperatively
co-invested outside

Nature’s sacred compassions
at their healthiest
and best sacred Muse wealthiest
reconnecting Warriors

Dancing
between yesterday’s inhaled enlightenment
exhaling tomorrow’s singing
dancing
healing
restoring Earth’s organic
orgasmic empowerment.

Migrating Culture Change

Perhaps immigration is our big US national anxiety
because we don’t know how to unilaterally abort
cancerous growth of ecocide.

Too much to even think about
at a merely nationalistic level
of semi-consciousness.

Earth is our shared sacred home
which has begun feeling like a dried out
grass and forest burning
tornado churning
housefire.

No Trespassing signs
of defensive desire
and cutting-edge lethal spirals
of kill and maim designer wire
assert our RightWing
LeftBrain patriarchal predative dominance,
anthro-privileged prominence

While health
and prosperous wealth
and indigenous community farm wisdom
all intend to restore EarthTribal
therapeutic peaceful justice,
nonviolent green communion
for cooperatively co-invested
compassion

Left/Right bipartisan
Universally salvific enlightenment
through co-redemptive
Unitarian empowerment.

Naturally acclimating spiritual cultures
grow anxiously attuned
to global warming
red-hot rabid pathologies

Spiritually co-empathic minds
are systemically seized
by trauma
by EarthMatricide
by rapacious plunder
by extractive predation

Rather than sacred
cooperative
synergetically co-invested
EarthTraveler identity.

If holistic love brings peak experience
memories
Then whole systemic life
is a migrating journey
away from chronic win/lose emigrating risks
and toward emerging
win/win immigrating opportunities.

Climate changing rabidity
includes RightYang v LeftYin hysteria,
patriarchal partisan polarity
dismissing matriarchal wombed
holy holonic wholesome holes.

Migration marchers
singing Never Again”
to weaponized violence
against both young
and old sojourner species

Often judgmentally justified
by divinely-scripted
manifest destiny
written by a monotheistic right hand
drawing a punishing border
in cosmic sand
against our holy uniting spirit
of co-migrating
mind and body compassion

Global peace
paradise found
in restoring EarthJustice health,
environmental wealth

Indigenous nondualistic positive wisdom
universally experienced
peak mind/body
yin/yang

-(-0) = +1
Polynomial co-binary
balancing bicameral
bipartisan
bilateral moving
shifting
grooving neurosystemic conclusions

Concerns that anthro-migrating health
is root 0-soul reliant
on Earth-crowning
not drowning
wealth

Both Left and Right
West and East hemisphere co-passions
anticipate binomial 1/0 adventures
in cooperatively migrating intelligence

Curious about why
immigration is our big First WorldView
national anxiety.

Wondering
about wandering
in competitive +1 v -0-thering
smothering defenses

Not able to nationalistically abort
rabidly cancerous migrations
of anthro-privileged
desecrating ecocide.

My Renegade Sunday School Teacher

Aunt Mary was a small and wiry mother
of six;
four by birth
and two by informal adoption.

She sang in a small querulous voice
yet spoke boldly
filled with loving EarthMother
indigenous wisdom choices.

Aunt Mary was a serenely quiet mentor
and suspiciously happy
Sunday School teacher
in our stern Christian evangelical Bible Church
where divine Revelation
ended with the last apocalyptic
King James chapter.

Closed “Father Has Spoken” inspiration
was not quite so All or Nothing clear
from our Teacher’s polycultural gardener
and permacultural farmer perspective,
with her animal husbandry perceptions
offering a more inclusive Holy Spirit articulating view

Of personal
and communal peak therapeutic experience,
naturally revealing,
spiritually fulfilling
universal salvation
seeking unitarian redemption
finding ever more expansive
universal EarthTribal sensations.

Aunt Mary led our high school class
theological reflections
always in her quiet
compassionate way

A question and respond style
she may have learned from reading Gospel Jesus

The outdoor itinerant Teacher
responding to both hostile
and admiring fan questions

Speaking in Beatitudes,
spoken word Psalms
Proverbs,
impromptu Sermons on Mountains.

“What did Jesus mean
when he said Abba is love?”
I might have asked,
hoping to catch her explaining herself away
from the Patriarchal personal knowledge
our straight
white
good-news privileged preacher
shared from his bully pulpit
about what demonic
not straight
not white
not strong warrior behaviors
God hates.

“Abba is ComPassion”
invites us to become liberal
only in love”
she responds.

This is the reverse side of becoming more conservative
about risky behaviors
and negative attitudes
and demonic platitudes
steeped in hate
anger
fear
greed
narcissism
anthro-supremacism,
ignorance,
traumatic abuse,
and chronic emotional neglect
remaking god into our own dog-
matic worst
bad excuse for a good-news day
degenerative imagination.

“The devil made me do it”
in jest
curiously reminds me of
“Jehovah demands I hate it”
excommunicating those who sin
against my limited
and exclusively safe
peak resonant experiences.

Judgmental
“Violence is mine”
loudly speaks StraightWhitePrivilegedMale
way back in the weaponized Old Testament.

This love we choose
to renew each morning
we often think of as compassion
and Mom-inspired peace
and blissful nurturing light

In contrast to the traumatic night
of a darkened daddy soul

Yet love of God’s creation,
creativity,
music,
musicality,
natural Truth
and supernatural Integrity
of wholesome holonic Spirit,
is also openly
and relentlessly curious

About the depths of Earth’s empowering summer soils
and disempowering winter snow,
About resonant healing
yet also dissonant harming,
About both dawn’s light
and dusk’s revolving night.

Embrace liberal love
of our co-arising bicameral
dipolar appositional`Spirits

And conserve deep disregard
for competing bipolar
oppositional Souls

More clear about which sheep
we must be against
than why God created all sheep
for us to adore

Who define alien Others
by whom and what we are commanded
and reprimanded to hate

Don’t even try to understand
and don’t slow-grow the courage
to appreciate

To become more resiliently curious about
how
and why They/We can
and do love each Other
in some mysterious non-Othering way
beyond LeftBrain dominant understanding.

Liberally love
reform
refine
refinish your human healthy Self
and sacred natural Others
by uniting with whom
and what we love
and faithfully hope to stand.

Explore radically profound courage
to become more deeply
organically
integrally
inter-religiously curious about
how to more resiliently choose

Each mindful day
each inclusive hour
each thoughtful moment
within each healthy relationship,
each communion,
each love song
of liberating compassion

Thereby worrying less about
conserving slow-burning
political dispassions.

Life and Death of Supremacy

The difference
between RightWing political
and economic autism,
and Religious Right monotheism,
has been greatly exaggerated

To this post-millennial tipping point
of monopolistic omnipotence
predicting sacred Earth’s matricide

By LeftBrain-RightHand
dogmatic dominance
of a judgmental (straight-white) Jehovah
or a militaristic Allah
or a dogmatic YHWH
or a patriarchal Buddha
or a capitalist Krishna
etc
etc
etc

Made in
anthrosupremacism’s
competitive evolutionary
win/lose
Yang v Yin
Universal-MonoTheistic Truth v Unitarian-PolyCultural Beauty
survival-of-fittest v thrival-for-fit-in-ingest

Wildly exaggerated images,
polarized
partisan
disassociated
traumatizing
schizzy-autistic
rabidly over-populated
weak-X neurosystemic.

Defying Yang/Yin resonant
natural resilience
of peak sensexual
spiritual experience

Totally LeftBrain ignored
while justifying divine right
to a manifest EarthTribe destiny
of Hell on Earth ecocide.

Dancing NewYear Divas

EarthTribe dancing divas
still indulge emphatic circling
meditations

Dogmatically embodying
mindful medications

Producing peaceful pleasures
spiraling passions
against war’s relentless anti-paradise

Dancing resiliently within

while resonantly without
systemic trauma

Right hand gratefully open
virtuous praising circles
inviting LeftBrain

hierarchical lines

Resolving EarthDivas
now prancing in space-timed spirals
extending boundaries
to soon embrace love’s immortal
body-mindful warm regard

Together circling
Earth’s silent empowering
dormant winter solstice
starlit witnessing Adventure

Enlightening

Muse Speaks

When trauma lurks
with upper hand,
To know death
is to fear loss.

When therapy
lends Her feminist sway
to know
and co-invest in life
is to predict
and cherish love.

For both these reasons,
we send a significantly wrong message
of blame the victim
when we post public health messages
like “Suicide is preventable”

Which is no more
or less true
than Trauma is
and is not
therapeutically preventable
within one human lifetime,
relationship,
nonviolent communication history,
Yang/Yin resilient balance narrative

When trauma lurks
with upper bipolarizing hand,
To know depression
is to fear comprehensive loss.

When therapy
lends Her feminist sway
to know dipolarity
and co-arise in healthy life
is to predict trust and safety,
and cherish love
and lust’s sacramental deep impressions.
