Golden Rule Resonance

Talk to yourself.
Think and thank about your past selves,
how you have changed
and charged into different interests/disinterests
over years and decades.

Think about your now best self
as generously
as you might best re-listen and re-see
your worst felt unkind Enemy.

What can you hear about your older self
that you cannot also innocently perceive
with pleasing inner child compassion?

To belong in self-regenerating health
we might long for curiosity’s inter-communicating wealth
of alternative crown/root passionate pleasures
now/past
mature/infant
VerbalMe/PreVerbalWe
biological/ecological
individual/kindred
sacred/organic
co-empathic win/win relationships
,
To avoid repeating Win v Lose past-condemning strategies
through isolated ego-identity self v unself dissociation.

Empty of more fertile organic kindness
re-connection
resonating self and unself re-association
re-ligiously fore-giving
resilient preverbal voices
care-giving care-receiving
co-empathic resonant unchoices

Observing
and becoming more MindSpirit/BodyNature perceived,
belongingly loved

ReHearing your preverbal inter-rooted child
become lovingly listened to
and organically known
and sacredly appreciated
as is
and ever shall be

To again remember smelling
and tasting
and feeling resonant health
more kind than pathologically predative wealth

By reversing organic developing “self v not-self” concepts
we touch all timeless root-systemic
pre-verbal pre-histories
of indigenously wise
resonantly resilient
re-ligious regenerations

That could not possibly
have kindness become you
with autocratically irreligious degenerations.

Imagine inviting your sacred-organic
polyphonic mind
polyamorous body
into this new reconnecting day
to be filled to overflowing fruition
with democratically GoldenRuling others

Doing and saying to our verbally mature adult selves
as we would have compassionately pleasuring Elders
do and say kindness to our preverbal inner child

Feeling yourself
treating yourself,
meeting yourself,
listening and perceiving yourself,
with at least as much reconceiving kindness
as you would want
your own worst unkind trauma enemy
to respect sacred neurosystemic you
and your prenatal organic
ecosystemically kind-kin home

Still living and singing to yourself.
Thinking about and thanking yourselves
noticing how CrownMe/RootWe have interdependently changed
and charged into democratically resonant interests,
avoided autocratically dissonant disinterests,
over sacred seasoning years
and organically regenerating decades.

CareFueling Charges

I was charged with a misdemeanor,
based on witnesses
who imagined they heard me saying I was leaving
without a note,
even though I knew
I dinged a new red truck’s door.

I know they saw my oppositionally defiant daughter
and her careless caregiver like that
but that’s because they could not also imagine hearing

I was the driver ahead of them
holding out a 5 or 10
or even a 20,
if that was the least I had,
to any wounded person beside the road
wearing a self-made sign:
Homeless [unperson]
Please help me.

I cannot always pass
these dinged up opportunities to help.

You see I have an oldest son
now twenty-one
who is not quite right
and tries his best
but
finding and keeping a peaceful train of thought,
much less a long-term training job,
is hard for understudied him
and so he stays where he may be safely hidden
despite what resilient love can ill afford,
to rest on Other’s dime and time.

I never pass a chance to help
when need for help is obvious
as the tears we face
when humanity feels disgraced,
effaced by race,
knowing only left behind
to do the best I can
to ask us to be better, we can,
to help when They anxiously approach Us
with life’s disturbing concerns.

I make it my business to always try win/win
when someone’s in our loser mess.
It would be too out of co-empathic character
to know me as these have heard,
doing my best to avoid
a dinged your door responsibility,
because of a defiant mess I caused

I have no self-interest to not confess
and then open my eager to be warmed wallet,
already too long-suffering of privileged neglect.

But I do confess,
these are all my messes,
and yours as well.

We have too often acclimated
to this win/lose monopolistic culture,
where we do not actively care
for one another
outside our religious classrooms,
so not inside our codependent walls,
echoing with dispassionate either saved
or sinner,
not a winner.

I hope to heal your mess we cause
as gently and lovingly as I so hope
someone right now will find love’s faith to see
within my homeless not quite right son’s asking eyes:

Would you help me
fix us?
Do you know yet again
already,
we are in win/win grace together,
or we are out to fall and lose
winner v loser disgraced
apart?

If you see him
let him go
do not scold him
by his show

Be less mean and mad
in co-empathic care’s return.

Try with me to relearn
he’s done his almost best
to get Winner v Loser anxiety
more religiously right,
less desecrating wrong,
next irreligiously Othered time.

So feel free to lavish praise
on how close he might have come
to doing better healthcare wealth.
This helps him, and you,
feel and remember better kindness kin
and perhaps even rather less than worse
original dissociative sin.

It would be my misdemeanor
to not do my best
wherever I see our mess
and yet
I confess
I cannot always see sin
in this interdependent swaying way.

These watchers and listeners and speakers against me
must also misunderstand,
yet perhaps that’s all to life’s good

Makes me wonder
how they would re-imagine me
if they had recognized that old white guy in front,
stopped to say a privileged yes
to each unhoused
unloved
dinged up mess.

Could we all take and give
better time enough
to just say healthy yes
to wealthy benefits
of religiously straight
monopolistically white
patriarchal winners
re-engaging co-empathic win/win enrichment
with our internal Non-Othering
Gaia Hypothetical side.

On our best
doing our almost less mess
cooperatively co-passionate
interdependently reweaving
not dark night
and not worst play

sacred Earth still co-revolving
another organically living
lovely day.

Integrity of Kindness

Why is it that kindness,
like integrity,
is both free
and freeing?

And meanness,
like AnthroSupremacy,
is too expensive
and frightening?

Yet
I often do not feel free
to choose therapy,
Earth’s sacred dancing choice

While pursued by overpowering lack
of wise wealthy light
ego singing bright love’s rejoice

Inside curiously echoing
compassion’s pleasured voice.

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.

Political Wisdom

I remember,
back in early pre-colonial days,
when promise
and purposes
of prosperity,
well-being,
safe wealthy health care
assumed universal EarthTribal goals

For uniting spiritual
mental health
including natural
embodied wealth
for all organic
and mineral
and bone
and teeth
and nails
and hearts
and guts
and root chakras
of woody plants
and patriarchal people
on EarthTribe’s shared
and sacred
matriarchal planet.

And, I remember
not so long ago
when bipartisan cooperative co-investment
in health
was resilient wealth
for people,
plants,
and eco-planetary systems
built through resonant nonviolent communications
advocating economic health,
liberally conservational wealth
of panentheistic Earth Communion

Inviting co-investments
in politically enlightened
co-empowerment.

Powers for restoring EarthTribal
organic health-wealth eco-justice

Promoting ego-resilient peace

For individual communities
and our polycultural
extended families
of species,
Earth enthusiastic ecofeminists

Advocates
for healthy universal wealthy
unitarian EarthTribe compassionate
resonant
resilient regard,
mindfulness,
immanently indigenous wisdom

Virtuous sacred circles
restoring Whole Open Systemic justice,

MotherEarth’s Resilience Project

So, Mother, where do you get all your creative ideas?

Outside, of course.
I’m not known as MotherNature for nothing
after all Earth’s regeneration
is too often said
and too seldom done
with unconditional regard
for our Green Vegetation Tribes.

OK, that almost made sense
in a dizzying
circular
self-reflective kind of inappropriate
way.

And, if I might also add, even though you asked about where,
perhaps a more interesting question is,
When do we get all our most resilient health
and safety
ideas?

For me,
all my best indigenous green creation wisdom
comes to me at night,
in dialogue with my GrandMother Moon.
She waxes and wanes,
breathing in full sensate blue seas
of surf, ebbing and flowing
exhaling and inhaling
verbal thoughts and nonverbal feelings,
noticed outside
and also perceived inside,
communications verbal and nonverbal,
aggressive and nonviolent,
competing against dawning light
and cooperating with dusk’s wiki co-empowerment,
disempowerment,
un-empowerment,
re-empowerment,
pre-empowerment
like light/dark phases of a round
spinning
spiraling
inspiring
spirited full systems
co-reflective moon.

Why did you get involved in this Resilience Project?

Well,
you deeply know
what traumatized PatriarchalCapitalists warn:
Follow the green money.
And,
the MatriarchalCooperativists advocate,
sometimes cleverly win/win mediate,
leading with sacred circles
of communal power,
aware of FormativeHere greeting FluidNow
space-time body/minds
sometimes positively waxing,
before negatively waning,
and in-between

Not not appositionally co-arising,
co-invested
co-empathic Self/Other Golden Rules
of double-binding co-relations
positive and negative
tipping poignant outside/inside balance,
precessive/recessive,
inhaling/exhaling systemic
resiliently projected/rejected resonance

For being outside Here
and becoming inside more healthy Now
is also wealthy
eternal Polynomial Positive
equals Not(Not Polynomial)
bilaterally co-empathic synergy

Now surfing sensate seas,
inhaling strong verbal forms of present Being
Fullness to also exhale nonverbal flows
of still Becoming
MotherEarth’s resilience project

Projected and rejected
and wu-wei in-between
waxing resiliently strong Yang
and waning

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

Small Powers Everywhere

This little light of mine
I’m gonna let it shine

Wide and longing
for committed dialogue
not surrounded
by elitist debate,

Win/lose games,
Zero-sum asinine assumptions
requiring ego-infested shadows

Resisting win/win opportunities
of healthy
democratic dialogue

Between constituencies,
residents sufficiently humble
to become students together
and unschooled
unprofessional parents
and not totally enlightened teachers
and investigative staff
and neighborhood enquiry co-investors
in this democratic
nonpartisan
Thermos On Thames Experiment.

Where the School for Daily Integrity
hosts community resources
co-engaging win/win resolutions
producing cooperative educational opportunities
to practice
practice
compassionate praxis
nonviolent communication
to restore EarthJustice,

Where co-investors co-invite
contributions around ecofeminist friendly circles
just close enough for everyone
to hear all respected neighbors
who will not be Othered

Because we are learning,
through this pandemic of anxiety,
to anticipate more than climate floods
and fears,

Both risks
and opportunities,
dissonance
and resonance,
chaotic cacophony
and complex symphony
entrusting our capacity
for resilient health and safety
co-governance.

Not another negative
Business As Sadly Usual
competitive ZeroSum game
of wounded ego-survival
until some future small light day
still dimly hoping for big bright
ecosystemic
polycultural
multicultural win/win robust community

Co-mediation
co-operation
co-invested co-dominions
engaging spring EarthDay celebrations

Of locals feeling active hope
and mutually earned trust
predicting environmental ideas
for healing Earth’s injustices
blighting compassionate
nonviolent communication,
which would be more transparent,
risking tender lights
for growing better humored
kindness

Where silence of executives
administrators
managers
means they are deeply listening
for how we can empower each other
through heartfelt consent

And cold dark silence melts,
no longer resisting Truth
to continue postures
of professional
authoritarian
legalistic
quarterly profit-preserving business
without also recognizing long-term threats
of flooding rivers
and subzero icy windstorms.

Straight white patriarchal privileged
incorporated silence means resistance
to sharing inclusive powers
with autonomously dimming lights

Rather than unveiling
wide and bright kindness moving
away from monocultural
either/or debate,
repressing fears about surviving future floods
fears
and famine

Rather than inclusively hoping
to thrive
with good humored faith
in INTEGRAL MARKERS
of democratic health
calling for this circle
to embrace trust-rebuilding
co-empathic engagement

Feeding
and watering each individual’s strengths
and cooperatively held assets
rather than punishing our weaknesses
of fear and anger,
passive mistrust
and active distrust

Further afflicting executive professional disadvantage,
dissociations
dividing shadows
weapons for continuing
White Patriarchal privileged
and disempowered
and unenlightened
talking Heads of lined up Authority

Speaking down,
darkly withholding honest
well-lit encircling dialogue
about our shared health
interactive safety
compassionate wealth
anticipations through actively
engaging transparent dialogue

While sitting around our annual fire circle
celebrating songs and dances
of green ecofeminist healthy lights
inviting yet another safe spring thaw

Inspiring this engaging light of ours
to let our best divine co-dominion
co-investments shine.
