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.

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.

Twitching Chakras

There is something sacred
about sphincter natural functions,
slow milking
and fast plunging
bilateral structures of Pleasure,
Nutrition,
Energy,

And warm wet
spiritually dynamic
chakras
of bicameral heart
and mind
and root

Twitching,
opening to unwillingly close again
in anxiety, negatively,
and in anticipation of more,
positively wider,
deeper,
frictionless,
without dissonance,

Letting go, yet demanding urgent return,
and grasping rhythmically on
toward all that embodies baseline energy
of win/win cooperative ecopolitical chakras

Leading up and down
toward tensed
and thrusting spines

Spiraling toward climaxing spiritual mind
and lusty strings of regenerate embodiment
for future NatureSpirits

With senses
longing to smell fertile YangFathers
to taste nutritional Yang roots
and seeds
with moist mouths
and wombs
and with our YinStretched Chakras
of immensely impressive
multicultural climate repressions,
multigenerational cultural depressions.

Pleading for ThrustOpen
and SlowClose Sesame
further warming developments,

Future imagined health services
of twitching
winking
blinking
sucking nurturing
milking bicameral minds
and hearts
and other regeneratively positive parts

To share
and care
and bare
vulnerable
transparent
co-passionate non-violent verbal
and non-verbal comm-unification,

Empowering win/win investments
Enlightening lovely
romantic
politically cooperative entrapment
enwrapment

CoArising Left
as also CoGravitating Right
co-operatively twitching

Back the Black and Blue

What do you do
when you’re a black cop
at a Back The Blue protest
with a Black Lives Matter
counter-protest
in front of you,
to left and right,
and possibly pursuing your rear
and career?

Which direction
does your identity choose,
if not to feel troubled
by a false choice
either way?

Is there some platform,
strange principle,
peculiar position
among Mattering Political Black Lives
that you cannot have
a healthy vocation
while carrying a ballistic weapon
and continue being a Black Life
in good and valued standing?

Or, to Back my Blue,
must I succumb
to StraightWhitePatriarchal Privilege?

Are there any color boxes
still widely open
and deeply inviting?

Can I not aspire to become
a non-binary bound,
non-white,
ecofeminist for EarthRights
to health and safety
and peace
and restoring green justice?

Recognizing
and appreciating
only Earth as Master,
Mistress,
Goddess,
Sacred Eden.

Discarding old school memories
of enslaved custody of imprisoned eyes
and ears for hearing,
suppressing custody of healthy taste
and fragrantly smelled beauty,
of cooperative touch
and globally compassionate feeling,

Regarding green lives matter schools
and reschooled deep learning
full 20/20 ownership
of Black and Blue
and Green proud lives
for multicultural mediation.

Buddha Listening

Buddha is deeply listening

My esteemed teacher
kindly reminds me,

“To see the master
not as a [merely natural] human being,
but as the Buddha himself,
is the source [and resource]
of highest blessing.”

But,
not necessarily the deepest blessing
for all EarthBodies
seeking spiritual multicultures
of regeneration.

For ecofeminists,
reincarnations of The Buddha,
win/win green
yet still appearing
and reappearing Male,

Remains win/lose disappointingly dissonant
with Padmasambhava’s Promise,
“Complete devotion
brings complete blessing;
absence of doubts
[especially about issues of health and environmental safety]
brings complete blessing;
absence of doubts
brings complete [win/win] success.”

It concerns me,
this universally intended
therapeutic resolution
for optimizing spiritual enlightenment
for all internal multicultural valuers

Still,
in the town where you live,
in the heart you won’t give,
fails to recognize
a healthy green new deal
ecofeminist
may find it easier
if Master
were maybe more Matriarchal,

If male characteristics of The Patriarchal Buddha
could give more multiculturing room
to daughters and sons
and all trans-sensory in-between buddhas
and Positive Deviant Messianic EcoDesigners
and Feminist Carpenters
and Restorative Green Justice ReCyclers
and Climate Health Activists

Matriarchal Teachers
primally schooled by MotherEarth,
Goddess Gaia
Green NonPartisan CoPassionate Communicators
CoOperators
Win/Win Ego/EcoSystemic L/R dipolar gamers,

PolyPhonically conscious
of PolyPathic amusing thought experiments
spiritual
and sensual
and sensory

As Buddha,
deeply ecofeminist
and widely multicultural, listens.

Local Living Matters

I hear things right side down
and bottom left side up
as I get older
so consider the source.

Anyway,
I hear Colchester Connecticut Democrats,
and some cross-registering Republicans,
want to establish
a multicultural health commission
concerned about military
and local police mercenaries
feeling discriminated against,
picked on,
unloved,
left out,
under-valued,
ignored,
neglected,
abused,
shot at.

T Rocko is concerned
such a vast investment
in multicultural respect,
solidarity of resonance,
integrity of long-term resiience
through commitment to public dialogue
rather than contentious debate,
could only be justified
with quantitative data

Adding up how much
anti-militarism
and anti-police prejudice
exists
and costs
in Colchester.

In this political
and economic moment
of social cooperative distancing,
dissociation,
scape-goating,
rabid polarization,
toxic partisanship

We need a baseline,
says he,
of mutual disregard,
to measure regenerative progress
and/or degenerative retrenchment
from community integral investments
in health remediation,
inclusive wealth
for future cooperative governing generations.

Rudko,
self-appointed sole guardian
of our public investment purse,
responds,

Supporters of Armed Lives Matter
are “making a generalization…
not based on facts”
that silence means discontent,
speaks echo-chamberly
of feeling an unhealthy
lack of mutually fulfilling safety

Too risky
for speaking up transparently
to listen vulnerably
to all cooperative opportunity “Other”
and “Alien”
and “Immigrant”
And especially Not Straight Male Dominant
voices,
narratives,
aggressive predation stories
of relentless win/lose debate
rather than cooperative win/win dialogue
with social and multicultural intelligence.

UnderStated Yet OverHeard

I’m not comfortable
talking about racial differences,

Or even racial
or sensual similarities.

I know what you mean
or maybe I do.
Something intimate and personal
about melanin
and hair qualities
and what lies red-blooded
under shared and segregated skin.

I remember when long hair quantity
was an anti-patriarchal political statement,
maybe even economic;
But not qualities
like “good” hair
or “black” hair
or “kinky” hair
or “Aryan” blond hair
or “much too blond” hair.

I’m uncomfortable
talking about kinky sex, too.

I’m hearing something about mixing
personal and political.

I know, right?

Like, when did the decision to have a baby
or not,
because of emergent climate pathologies,
impending drought
and hunger

Pandemics

Floods

Fierce and frightening windstorms

Failure of insurance
and financial
and healthy-democratic v fake-populist government systems
become more than merely personal?

I don’t know.
I’m starting to see reality of power-centers
the eco-Other way around.

Meaning…

That personal climates
and characteristics
are also politically empowering
and/or disempowering,
often with economic
investment and/or divestment
implications;
Not partisan, especially,
but essentially political,
like positive and negative cultural power.

When was the last time
someone told you,
“It’s not personal,
I’m just not ready to commit”
Or
“It’s not personal,
it’s just a time and money budget problem”
Or
“an administrative decision”
“come down from corporate”
“change in [impersonal, generic, general] policy”
“a decision [choice] made upstairs”
about a group of individuals
of which you, unfortunately,
are a now unwanted part.

As if,
because it’s political
or economic policy,
it can’t become legitimately felt as personal
disempowerment
or even familial empowerment;
like capitalistic corporately learned responses
to cultures of melanin
and kinkiness.

My favorite
is when people ask me
not to confuse religion
with politics
and economics.

I know, right?
Like most of Earth’s human population
could
or would place their faith
in politically impoverished
or economically disempowered
counter-cultural
communitarian cooperative communication
and spiritual and sensory education
and ecofeminist formation failing systems

Like ecologically failing subclimates
and theologically monoculturing racism
and sexism
and straight white patriarchal privileged
left-brain dominant systems.

Personal systems.

And political.

And economic.

And social-psychological

Multiculturally transmitted

Whether by democratic constitutions
or divinely inspired scriptures
or patriarchal lines of spiritual masters
teachers with diverse levels of aboriginal melanin,
and good or kinky hair,
and those upper eyelid folds
I’m not sure I Western trust…

God Is Love: Love Is God

A problem with using scripture
as a spiritual guide

More prominently
more fundamentally
more evangelically
than establishing a relationship with a mentor
a teacher
a spiritual director
facilitator
mediator
between egocentric LeftBrain dominant reading
and ecosystemic RightBrain sacred listening
for integrity
synergy
interdependent nuance
healing
divinely restorative justice,

When we first hear,
“God so loved Earth”
we naturally conclude
such compassion is incompatible
with God so loved all of Goddess Earth’s
living indigenous Tribes
regardless of colors
like green
red
yellow
brown
purple
violet
ultra-violet,
even burnt orange,
and black and white
which are more about oppositional contrasts
of light
and melanin
than any color
shade
tone brilliance or dullness
of left or right mind.

Then, later in the same verse
beloved by monoculturing missionaries,
we read
“Whosoever believes in God’s Son
will not perish
but have eternal life.”

As if these words also read,
“Whosoever does not LeftBrain hear
about God’s Great Messianic Historical Event
will perish
and will not have eternal life.”

Which RightBrain feelers for integrity,
listeners and discovers
of Win/Lose redemption-committed multicultural mediators
like Holy Spirits
universal Win/Win lovers,
compassionate teachers
and healthy resilient ecofeminist leaders
can transparently
and vulnerably hear
as a false negative corollary,

An illicit LeftBrain sin of omission
inappropriate for a universal EarthLover God

Made in humane LeftBrain verbal images
of judgment
Straight White Patriarchally entitled
to blame
and shame Others for ignorance
sin
failures of win/win universal principles
to remember to keep sacred
as Sabbath and Scripture
all Golden Rule everyday compassions

Both LeftBrain true Facts
and RightBrain beautifully interdependent Relationships
of Inform/Export-Communic-ation

Communion
Tran-substantiation
Creolization
Re-Ligion
PolyEmpathic Integrity
of individuals’ secular thoughts, local
and synergetic sacred feelings, global.

NonViolent Communication

NonViolent Communication
might become more
democratically and multiculturally accessible
as NonDissonant Communication,

Affectively and cognitively bilateral
and, at least potentially,
multiculturally polyempathic,
inclusive,
contextually intelligent,

Articulated more positively
as Confluent Communication

About experiences of communion
and anti-communion
and miscommunion,

CoPassionate Communication,
about multicultural
EarthTribe Healthy Communion.

Nurturing Faith

How does one nurse,
nurture,
feed and water,
parent,
teach,
mentor
facilitate,
mediate,
advocate for,
witness to,
listen for good healthy faith
in globally resonant possibilities,
in universal holistic integrity?

Of course
I do not know
how to answer your question
without you.

But,
I do know
my answer
to this question,
rooted in my own experience,
will most certainly NOT include:

Invest heavily in Earth’s demise
as a living planet,
as a beautiful home,
as our future
regenerational
healthy and safe habitat,

As matriarchally iconized by MotherEarth
Queen Gaia
Queen Sabbath
Green EcoFeminist Eden
Positive Yin Flow with Yang Power

Holy
holonic
whole
and multiculturally open
to healthiest wealth
of nature-spirits.
