Muse Speaks II

This is a revised version of a piece published in a poetry anthology a few years ago. I have added an ecocide-prevention perspective to the original suicide-prevention focus.

When trauma lurks
with upper hand,
To know loss
is to fear death
of much-loved reputation
and taxing self-respect.

When therapy
lends Her feminist sway
to know
and co-invest in life
is to predict
and cherish waxing 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 Systemic Trauma is
and is not preventable
within one anthropological
LeftBrain verbally dominant
monoculturally ecocidal lifetime,
or one healthy democratic trust relationship,
one compassionate communication PolyCulturing Story,
one encircling EnLightenMind/EmPowerBody
resiliently brilliant
resonantly elegant
polyamorous and possibly pantheistic
naked native Nature
sacred/organic
win/win narrative

Matrimonially prophesying,
When trauma lurks
with upper dissociative
and irreligiously patriarchal
right-handed fist,
To know mental depression
body-shaming repression
cognitive oppression
intuitive suppression
is to fear comprehensive
fight or flight
and critically frenzied frozen events
of neurosystemic,
and now also ecosystemic,
loss.

When therapy
lends EarthMother’s feminist sway
to know resonant win/win integrity
reconnecting healthy life’s
most resiliently wealthy impressions
is to predict patriotic trust
and matriotic safety,
animus penetrating truth
and anima receptive beauty,
expressive cognitive compassion
and impressive intuitive pleasure

Win/win thriving respite
from ego- and eco-distempered,
win/lose survivalist,
dissociatively irreligious,
RightWing dominant trauma history

To fully rekindle compassion’s
wealth embodied laughter
health mindful listening
EarthMother Muse lustery

Organic passion’s sacramental
deep erotic governing
exotically orgasmic
pleasure mystery.

ReWeaving EarthTribal Peace

Radicals of PostMillennial Zeroism,
like Fundamental PreMillennial Taoism:

YangMind,
severed from YinBody,
falsely promises
unmitigated monopolistic political omniscience
and monotheistic economic omnipotence.

YinBody becomes spiritualized-denatured
empty womanized
invisibly purged
recessed
depressed
repressed
suppressed
voiceless
powerless,
eco-normatively absent
lacking positive nutritional flow trends,
panentheistically dormant.

Just as Holonic Spirit/Nature abhors vacuums of appositionality,
insides divorced from outsides,
there is no such physical dipolar divide
as either of these bipolar metaphysical extremes
might imagine

just as there is no such thing as Yang MindSpace
without YinBody’s bilaterally evolving sensations
of not ANGRYpast and not FEARFULfuture
panentheistically omnipresent -(-0)

EarthTribe AnthroPoids

AnthroPoids
standing tall
on both hind feet

Are a great aped longing
to belong

Without getting down
on all four transportive limbs

Stretching down
and dusking in

ReImagining

empowering
and enlightening
daytime’s life

Vulnerably wise
and transparently healthy

EarthPassioned AnthroPoids
dancing in tall circles
singing on both hind feet.

Dancing While Singing

Dancing minds
free singing bodies

Dancing bodies
reserve singing minds.

Minds find faith in wealthy
blue-sky synergy
where bodies have experienced hope
for sacred EarthTribe’s
healthiest green integrity.

Whether we feel we must invest
in cooperative minds
invoking compassionate
sacred bodies

Or think we might best divest
of competitive degenerating bodies
provoking dispassionate minds

Is an unnatural “loser”
shaming invoice
leaving a still small crack
enlightening a healthier political voice
and neuro-sensexual choice
inviting wealthy spiritual rejoice

In wealthy dancing minds
liberating soulful singing bodies
conservatively enhancing
healthy singing minds.

GrassRoot UpRising

Asked the crowning Trees
of their Grass rooting neighbors

When you feel like singing
while dancing
are you more likely to invoke devotion
to capitalism’s competitions
or compassion’s cooperation?

Responsive chords,
amusing reeds
and whistling thistles
shyly reply

When we feel most wealthy voiced
and healthy choiced
are we more likely to invest
in red soiled cults
of secular supremacy
or green cultures
of sacred communion?

MotherTrees of crowning shade
for their root systemic neighbors
flexed their branching muscles
groaning
moaning through Earth’s wind
and rain,
heat
and pain

Our best way to heal
Othering smothering instincts
is to repair our shared cooperative soil
restoring EarthPeace soul
of co-invested health

Thereby growing out
our shared climate
with compassion’s devoted wealth

Sang the crowning Trees
dancing with Grass rooting neighbors.

The Senior City Center

When I entered the City Senior Center
with my Open Mic proposal
to increase resilience
and decrease apartheid dissonance

I could hear no music,
see no dancing.

The quilting room
and the game room,
even the pool tables,
were as quiet as the library,
which at least held four contemplative people
scattered in their own secluded spaces.

Like visiting a sad monastery,
without tai chi,
chi gong,
walking meditation,
and/or yoga classes
filled with abundant creaky grace.

Back then
The Senior Center felt like a sad retirement home,
day care for some,
a reprieve from unmitigated loneliness
away from an empty nest,
a dusty divorce,
tiring widow weeds,
snarky dark separations,
untimely and unwanted departures.

A place to avoid risks
of dying unhappily
in sequestered
marginalized 24/7 isolation

More anxious now
than anticipating
long weekday evenings
dark nights
and bleak winter weekends

Where no outside kindness
for aching bones
and sinus cavities
could be found
in one’s private old age tomb.

Fading
failing
irrelevant
uncherished rooms feel frightening,
sometimes angry
waiting to die stations
for prisoners of neglect

Victims of systemic trauma
aging alone
in a retiring
and not repurposing
silent place.

Now returning,
as we cooperatively rebuild
our Senior Wisdom Center,
former inmates remember ourselves
as guilty criminals,
blaming and shaming
and judging our sins
of lacking compassion

Throwing our humbled lot
in with all those Otherers
accused of Earth Matricide

Smothering our organic Center
with extractive plunder

Abortion of our regenerative Planet,
HOME plant
exploited for anthroprivileged
economic
and short-term apartisan gain.

I couldn’t feel
much active hope
for multi-regenerative communion

For sacred transmutation
of bad
and mad
and sad
becoming win/win cooperatively owned
and managed
root systemic glad

Back before we became a Senior Wisdom Center
conjoined with the City Arts Center
exploring neighborhood after-school and weekend
Open Mic
and Community SingAlong Dances
and Flash Mob WellBeing Engagement events.

This switch
from segregated Senior Center
and unhoused lack of any Youth Center
to Senior Wisdom Center
supporting neighborhood MusEcology Skill Centers

Began with cooperatively engaging
healthy CrownChakra songs
while dancing wealthy RootChakra
cooperatively co-invested rhythms

Dipolar co-arising mind/body patterns,
win/win indigenous governance systems
more friendly to universal health care minds
seeking resonant opportunities
through unitarian wealth care bodies
drawn away from risky win/lose trauma
repurposing toward resilient win/win
co-passionate engagement.

Muted Muses

We may need a rest left here
right now
said the Muse
to his Warrior
and her Sage.

In compliant spirit,
Sage feels a rest not
not significant
in music’s octaved stories
of wealthy

Anticipating a Warrior’s peaceful relationship
between sound of tears
and silence anticipating fears
of dwindling years

Resting nonverbal
and arresting verbal
Muse full and empty
nonviolent communionations

Muse of octave crowning sight
and deeply rooted sounds
from darkest healthy

0 root chakras
and 1 crowned

connected to both Warrior’s fierce
love lost and found music

Polypathically speaking,

said the song/dance stealthy Muse
to his mind/body healthy Warrior

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.
