Integrity v Privilege

You, like all human embodied minds,
whether individual
or collective, tribal

Right hemisphere feelers,
sometimes left handed,
Left hemisphere thinkers,
dominant right handed,
have suffered wounds,

Self-esteem losses
for not being internally transparent
and externally vulnerable enough
for a holistic communion
of EgoLeft and EcoRight inter-hemispheric integrity
that comes only to a few,
usually with advanced mindbody healthy age,

Ego healthy interdependent bodies
compassionately expanding
throughout Right-hemisphere prominent
multicultural
resonant
interdependent
ecosystemic minds
attracted to other ecofeminist bodies,

Male yang strength of holistic
whole open EarthSystem Truth
with yintegral flowing Beauty

Left compassionate thoughts
supporting Right integral feelings,
sensory healing resonance
underlying sexually energized resilience

Restoring internal justice
overpowering historic wounds
of retributive violence
aggression
repression
suppression
oppression,
absence of win/win impression

Unjustly privileged StraightWhiteMale
LeftBrain dominant systems

Internally conditioned
because externally win/lose
strategically positioned

Capital infested atrocities
over minion invested democracy.

Turquoise Pond

Earth’s turquoise pond faces,
green life
blue reflecting

Re-membering under each calm surface
re-ligioning disparate
dispolarizing themes
of Spiral EcoPolitical Dynamics,

Surrounding forest factors,
time flowing forward
and re-connecting backward,
spirited and well-natured space,
health-reconditioning place,
win/win ego/ecosystemic democratic
developing pace

Awakens EarthHumane empowering systems
within curious individuals
living amid courageous global multicultures

Designed to win/win strategize with,
and co-acclimate to,
co-articulating BlueHealth/GreenWealth
calm-faced repositions.

Some individuals may be born
deviantly blue/green
in and out
through timeless spiraling time

Calm,
apparently placid,
yet full
ripe mindbodies

Win/win reset for a 20/20 turquoise millennium
just beyond green/yellow current depolarizing horizons
of most non-red Others
human and not not quite extinct
instincts of non-violent thoughts
with eco-feeling climates.

In this best of health/wealth EarthTime,
positive psychopolitical feminists
are revered as non-violent bodhisattvas
and matriarchal messiahs,
pathfinders,
20/20 peace-revolutionary visionaries.

In other bubbling
troubling
autocratic red-dominant times,
Turquoise ecofeminists are imprisoned,
burned-at-the-stake,
banished,
twitter-bullied,
enslaved,
raped,
pimped out,
polluted,
diluted,
seduced,
reduced

Reproduced
for a healthier
calming wealthier
pond-faced place
in Turquoise Timeless Time.

Disempowering Systems

Systemic racism
is a social/cultural pattern
of racial prejudice
originating within individuals
and their anecdotal experiences
and lack of multiculturally enriching discernment

Shedding light,
and shredding dark,
power analysis,
political and economic,
on patterns of white privileged events
unveils systemic patterns of win/lose empowered privilege
and disempowering lose/lose prejudices,
race and male and heterosexual privileged
anthropocentric unredeeming
lack of communication
events.

Take, for example,
a power analysis of John 3:16:

For God so loved the world [Earth and EarthCreatures]
That He gave His only begotten Son [patriarchal frame]
So that whosoever believes in Him
Shall not perish
But have eternal life.

Literalist
Fundamentalist
Conservative
Evangelical Christians
(should this prove not to be a complex oxymoron)
have supplanted believing in God’s radically interdependent EarthLove
(first phrase)
with doctrinal belief in Jesus of Nazareth
as God’s only begotten, privileged
humane/divine hybrid Son of
StraightWesternWhiteMale
LeftBrain Dominant
Military-Industrialized
Retributive Win/Lose Judging God.

This substitution of belief
in the privileged sacred status
of a Jewish male Teacher
and Prophet,
sharing his potentially viral experience
of Jewish AbbaCreator
as win/win power of universal multiculturing
regenerative Love,
is a culturally profound
early straight white western
(not particularly eastern nature/spirit nondualistic)
privileged-prejudicial moment
of defining God’s economic
and politically empowering grace
in troubling oppositional terms:

First phrase, Regenerative Source is universal Love,
and, third phrase,
Regenerative Source is historically-culturally,
systemically racist.

If, to be orthodox and effectively Christian
is to be spiritually privileged,
then those not born into evangelical Christian homes,
King James Bible reading communities,
Western dominating cultures
are disproportionately
and systematically
and historically under privileged,
disempowered
unredeemed
with less win/win graced
direct experience of Love
Light
Word internal/external
ego-refining/ecopolitical-defining win/win
potential spiritual/natural life optimizers.

Jesus of Nazareth’s prime experiential teaching,
story telling
prophetic “God is multiculturing universal win/win Love”
not revengeful monoculturing
win/lose systemic
racist Judge

Is not resonantly heard,
not resiliently felt,
neither tasted nor seen
through eyes and ears,
hands and heart,
mouth and nose
of straight white male privilege

Too leftbrain dominant
to divinely know
and nondualistically respect
appreciate
primacy of empowering cooperative green/blue Love experience
over disempowering competitive redblooded Lust
for theologically dogmatic unecological lack of relationship,
anthropocentric
xenophobic
narcissistic
individualistic ego-salvific power

To claim sacred wealth of life
for yourself and only your Tribe
by denying truths of sacred/secular empowerment
through win/win cooperative everyday experience
of communion
throughout all EarthTribes

Divine/humane
right/left
yin/yang
green/red
nonviolent communicating Light
of ChristMass Love
Words
Stories of CoRedemption

Democratic,
not autocratic,
experiences both ecologically natural
and theologically spiritual;

Devoid
Cleansed
Wiped Clean of racist,
straight male dominant,
leftbrain misculturing
unhealthy
unwealthy supremacy.

GreenDemocratic Health Images

Imagine your healthiest body
is a democratic
self/other empowering organism

Ideally,
most nutritionally,
nurtured by an also open,
living,
dynamic win/win preferential,
evolving,
revolving planetary universe,
in many sacred times and places
also known as MotherEarth.

Notice
your democratic bodymind
is an open
holistic
ego/eco-centering
co-invested re-centering,
co-acclimating interior and exterior
bilaterally systemic infrastructure
for democratic health,
rooted in mutual trust.

If your brain is in charge,
this is a democratic charge,
a coordinating
complexly inter-communicating
organic whole system responsibility,
leaving no individual organ or health function
irresponsibly behind.

Not an autocratic,
from above,
hierarchically patriarchal,
capitalistic
head-mind over felt-body matter,
unilateral authority
capable of long-term
win for leftbrain dominant mind
only at the cost of a lose
for rightbrain democratic
organic
interdependently felt nature/spirit
body/mind bicameral communion intelligence

Bilaterally ego/eco communing communication
looking for win/win neurological
whole system
democratic resolution of health issues,
pathologically autocratic cancers,
cognitive/affective predations,
viral dissonance,
rabid and rogue behaviors,
win/lose anthropocentric ego-inflations,
lose/lose terrors and global humiliations,
rather than win/win wonders
and sacred awe of Earth’s resiliently healthy
democratic regenerativity.

Now, recall important political statements
influencing your own development:

A family is not a democracy.
A classroom is not a democracy.

Both implied “should not be” statements
almost certainly true
in your own predominant civil empowerment/disempowerment
formative experience,

Embracing win/lose
either-me/or-you competitions
between empowered teachers and preachers
and not yet mature and experienced
sometimes you win,
usually you don’t,
children and adolescents
and young adults,

Many of whom,
especially those poorer and darker,
will graduate into military-industrializing subcultures,
where patriarchal
leftbrain dominant autocracy
of commanders
over enslaved
and rented both/and repowering bodies
become reduced to untrusting tools
and win/lose
high risk strategic weapons.

These young left-brain autocratic adults
will certainly not be gathering rich Trust experience
in democratic dialogue
over autocratic debate
about the weakness
of win/win EarthJustice restoring democracy.

So, is it possible to hear?

Families, like competitive classrooms,
intending young life healthy empowerment,
often autocratically disempower

An economic and political warning;
A challenge to overcome not-yet mature democracy
rooted in experience of robust cooperative Trust,
rather than an unintended civics lesson
in rabid leftbrain dominant autocracy,
as if capitalism
were patriarchally inevitable
as racial
and sexist
and homophobic
and xenophobic
and anthropocentric apartheid.

As if mutually mistrusting
competition for individual investment power
were democratically healthier
than win/win cooperative models
for shared mind/body
spirit/nature
sacred/secular
eco/ego-systemic wealth,

Resonant trust,
resilient love,
trusting compassion

Imagining our healthiest bodies
are democratic
self/other empowering
Earth responsible organisms.

CoEmpathic Experience

Could what we believe
is our neurological humane nature,
growing up
and cooperatively out
from LoseMe/LoseWe depressions
about ourselves
and our subculturally dynamic environments,
toward WinMe/LoseWe capitalistic patriarchalism,
toward WinMe/WinWe nurturing co-empathic communication,

Also feel
as if theologically new ancient redblooded spiritual
flowing up
and cooperatively out
ecological green/blue energy
growing from retributive injustice guilt and shame
toward WinEgo/WinEco absorbing compassion,
ego/eco-political EarthTribe healing
healthy nature of wealthy spirituality?

Could what we believe
is our positive/negative multi-regenerational
psychological internal nature

Have grown from
our ecological prime EarthMother Attachment,
flowing divine ZeroSum individuating energy
growing from discontinuous detached WinMe/LoseWe
post-partum dark experience
toward Win/Win eco-political healing
green new deal healthy
internal/external nature

Of wealthy holistic healing
health/wealth multicultural
multigenerational
multi-pathic
polyphonic
meta-euphoric experience?

New Wine, Old Skins

For naturally aged old bodies,
new age spirituality
may bring to mind

Natural AND spiritual co-creative tensions
between regenerative positive empowerment
and degenerative negative dark,
yet still warmly wet newborn,
womb-like metamorphic attachment memories,

Continuous recycles of re-generate life
and de-generating deaths,

Wins
and losses,

Healthy days
and wealth uneased nights

Free of hoarding ego privileges
embedded in Earth’s blue/green
cooperative
ecosystemic timeless
multiculturing senses

Of natural old ages
giving way to continuous
dipolar co-arising
appositional/oppositional
bicameral
cooperative/competitive
naturally spirited
new-green/old-red sages.

Grasping Distractions

Maybe it’s just me.
So, I’m asking,
as focused, yet open
as I could ever hope to be,

Do negative correlations
between inhaling
and exhaling
Earth’s sensory WorldView
resemble, for you,
too,
a reverse correlation,
dipolar co-arising
appositional contrast,
in-between grasping on
and distracting off?

I am not sure why
this question could be economically
or politically
or psychologically
or neurobiologically significant

In this time of great polarized
climate EarthHealth and Safety crisis,
and yet,
it persistently seems so
as I attempt,
in my EarthView solitude,
to exhale and detract from
left hemisphere verbal
monopolizing
demanding dominance

To inhale and grasp toward
more right hemisphere nonverbal
nonviolent communing
climate therapeutic
in-between re-association
re-syncing thought and feeling
re-communing secular and sacred
re-ligioning

Green
and blue
and red
ultra-violet reweaving
Earth’s climate health
grasping fresh inhalations
and distracting patriarchal stale capitalism’s
white male privileged
pompous hortatorical reiterations
of Fight Makes Godless Right

Grasping or distracting reactionary
nonresponsiveness
to our secular
and sacred longings
for EarthHealth
and DemocraticSafety
non-oppositional points of WorldView.

Healthiest Wealth of Loyalty

We each and all have, I suspect,
a universal rightbrain multicultural awareness
that patriotism
risks degenerating into leftbrain fascism,

Isolating nationalism
self-righteously defending militaristic supremacy
and patriarchal privilege of an apartheid State
moving toward fear-mongered isolationism
supporting competitively debating
predative politicization
of capitalism

Rather than recognizing ourselves
as nations resting and wrestling
and co-investing
on interdependent continents
articulating green/blue loyalty to Earth
and no less nation
or solitary incontinence.

Summer Saturday

On a Michigan farmer Saturday
in August,
anticipating tomorrow’s evangelical Sabbath,

When late summer vacations
invoked pre-sacred house cleanings
more unusually light,

Heading outside after lunch
into this spectacularly breezy
blue billowing
discontinuously cumulus cloudy
in-between radiant sky blue
infinite wonder

Into this awesomely long leisurely afternoon
becoming one of those special kids
sent out to rediscover solitary play
while Mom clears HER kitchen
to fill our kitchen
with impossible fragrance
of Sunday dinner rhubarb pie
or fresh strawberry shortcake,
whipping vanilla or banana cream
while boiling sweet yellow corn,
baking mac and ancient cheddar cheese
for this evening’s pre-dusk compline dinner.

On this first summer celebrating Saturday
of low humidity
and temperatures predicting September 70s

Out past our red barn
and past its barnyard lily pond
and into golden stubbled hay fields,
sheared sexy contoured face
of my temporarily uncloseted gay imaginings
hoping for YangGod’s sexiest face
smiling in sabbath of return

Continuing on
to private green cool woodland
to nakedly climb a favorite tree
skin to naked bark,
full-bodied embrace
of this fabulous shared EarthLife
transparent
and open
and breezy free with God’s inclusive hope.

Out to play
and pray
this day
and month
and vacation
and re-creation
will never end

Or end,
if time must continue,
in moonlit radiant peace,
night dreams
of asking into perfect Sabbath.

Healthy and Resilient Diplomacy

And I respond
to your unasked question:
What might love have to do with regenesis,
synthesis,
integrity?

You ask me these questions
about framing an essential therapeutic message,
for that must be how centering questions end,
about essence
core
soul
spirit
nature

energy
guts
roots
seeds
wombs
eucharistic ZeroSum
ReGenerative Green
Resonant and Resilient Ego/Eco-Systems.

Within their proper multicolored
frames of multicultural reference
hoping for stronger
more fluid polyculturally nutritious
cooperatively integral
whole open systemic
EarthOrbiting Life Results.

For instant timeless now,
does it help
to change my mantra
by adding just one
of eight prime colored octaves
of spirit sound and mental sight?

There is only green integrity
of each EarthMoment’s potential.

Multicultural context adds qualitative purpose
to questions of quantitative meaning

Which sounds quite different than:
There is only red over-heated dissonance
of each EgoCenter’s lack of Win/Win
present
and future polycolored health potential.

Color has economic
and political empowering
and disempowering,
enlightening
and shadowing,
yanging
and yinning,
breathing out
and breathing in
potential.

This is DNA spiraling revolutionary
fractally structured bilateral dipolar
regenerative trend power analysis
unfamiliar to a Red LeftBrain dominant line
of decontextualized framing
when not warmly accompanied
by RightBrain Ultra NonViolet prominent circles
of multiculturally intelligent communication

To not think it sufficient
to correctly frame secular issues
and sacred essences
without also optimally feeling
how healthy energy democracy
may RightBrain intuitive feel/think
critical moments
to color
and recolor these transitional issues
and essences about dissociated ego-energy v eco-power,
green or red
or blue
or black lives matter, as well.

Taoism,
like Zeroism,
and ecopolitical win/win cooperative multiculturalism
notices the color and consecutive organic seasons
of regenerative flowing trends
for future flowing green hopeful energy

On green/blue Turquoise MotherEarth,
spiraling Her sacred and secular DNA/RNA
webs of information Left out
and exflowation Right in
co-arising/co-gravitating enthymematic
not(not) double-binding communication
of blame and shame,
climatically polypathic,
degenerative,
negative energy
like straight white patriarchal privilege.

Yet, I agree,
probably best not to declare this radical rainbow
spiraling revolution of 20/20 spacetime
too boldly.

It may seem to mean something hopeful
green new dealish,
and yet with what proof,
evidence of regenerate reformed trends
to follow healthy co-investment?

LeftBrain deducers-reducers
need to gnaw and know
differences
and dissimilarities
and capitalistic win/lose presumptions
of degenerative lose/lose energy
degenerate rabidity
red anger
toxic fear

Monoculturing, terrified white supremacists
left alone
to no longer merely imagine
disproportionate deaths
of GreenBlue Sacred EarthMothers

Future healthing lives
yet to ecofeminist
green cooperative empowerment come
win/win healthy messianic democracy
born through full BiCameral UltraViolet essences
resilient green issues
electrifying crises

Already foreshadow
evidence that RightBrain contextual intelligence
can learn to re-sense health maturation trends
through spiraling revolutions
of non-violent energetically re-imagined
reversion-conversion time
in nonzero-sum not yet space,
whole systemic
multiculturally restoring Green Earth
PeaceRight and JusticeLeft.

I guess I’m hoping to more mutually say,
I love your healthy wealth of multicultural greenness,
and always will.
And faith, somehow,
you might find this humorous
and romantic
and maybe a little bit green flirtatious,
curiously sexy,
sacredly mysterious
healthy and multiculturally safe diplomacy.
