TrumPublican Remorse

To USA conservative Christian brothers and sisters,

As I watch and hear and feel our health care
and wealth care resources dwindle,
and predative partisanship grow domestically
and internationally ballistic

I’m bitterly wondering,
on this otherwise sunny autumnal day,
if you feel ANY remorse?

For choosing to unleash
on your own vulnerable children,
your own climate-challenged homeland,
our organically cooperative
and beautiful sacred Earth

This dark,
“vengeance is mine”
spiteful
despotic
greedy
delusional TrumPublican
maladaptive
dysfunctional
irreligious federal administration.

Are you still living lonely
in your evangelical denial
that voting for a transparently
and ludicrously obvious

Anti-loving
Anti-uniting
Anti-peace
Anti-healthcare
Anti-Earthcare agenda

Was the organic Body
and sacred Blood of Christ,
Prince of Peace, informed
re-ligious reviving right
vote to cast?

How do you see your TrumPublican support
as standing with Jesus
on the radical side of “God is love”?
and not unenlightened hate
not fear-mongering
not disempowering anger.

Even the very proper British King James
royal capitalist Bible
says you will be known by your love
for one another,
by strength to love even your enemies

Those who don’t look
or sound like you
or even smell
and taste
and feel erotic attraction
the gendered way you do.

But a universally uniting
Holy Spirit of compassion
is not the way I know you;
I recognize you by your evangelical
nationalistic
sanctimonious
Chosen People sacrilege

Your falsely irreligious sense of holier,
supremely purer,
more orthodox,
than thou.

I know you as the John 3:16
evangelical cult of blind denial
that “God so loved the WORLD…”

Not just orthodox Chosen People,
not just humanity,
but the entire healthy democracy
of interdependent organic good faith
that love always
everywhere
every time
votes for health and peace
and compassionate humor

While hate
and fear
and anger
vote for unease and disease and war,
badly corrupted humor
and bad faith.

I can find it in my heart
to forgive you for one,
even two, sins
of ignorant voter commission

And yet,
on this spiteful day of Anti-Christlike infamy,
my religious mind struggles
to forgive those whose false pride,
cognitive dissonance issues,
continue into this dark dismal night
of Earth’s organic soul

I struggle to find shared passion
and pleasure
with those without any sorrow,
disappointment,
remorse
for irreligious
wrong
ideological dogmatism

Bad faith that TrumPublicanism
was God’s way of saving you
from voting for healthy multicultural inclusion

Healthy democracy’s constitutional aspiration
for restoring a more perfectly loving unity,
passionate happiness,
pleasures of sacredly organic,
interdependent peace,
not more unwealthy monocultural trauma

Irreligious
and irresponsible evangelical cults
of nationalistic sin
against Earth’s indigenous wisdom

Often Holy Spirit experienced outside orthodox lines
of monopolistic monocultural monotheism

Including prehistoric panentheistic
and EarthMother polytheistic
and pantheistic
and animistic reconceiving re-ligioning
living water
and mustard seed
healthy faithful wealth traditions

None of which are overwhelmingly recognized
by monotheistic addiction
to the anti-loving side
of fascist messianic ideologies
endemic to TrumPublican partisan strategies–
divide to conquer

Not democratically unite
to make constitutionally intended
world redeeming peace.

If you are feeling any shred of remorse
for ignoring political history of death
and/or theological mystery of love
reborn

Own it,
speak it,
transform silence
into choice
for extending love’s bipartisan resilience.

To do so will certainly not reduce you
to feeling worse,
and will increase our healthy democratic capacity

To feel better,
organically healthier,
loving,
peaceful,
faithful,
hopeful,
sacred belonging

Gathering together
our irreligious remorse
and our inter-religious choice
for global Prince of Peace rejoice.

Gaia’s ReCentering HypoThesis

Positive psychology
of enlightened empowerment,
contrasted with economically unenlightened
and politically disempowering trauma

Through millennia of emergent anthro-hubris
monoculturalism
monotheism
and anthropocentric
value-monopolistic
capitalism

Brings us into each mindful conscious moment
of co-empathic win/win
AnthroMind/EarthBody health-wealthy trust

Faith in co-passionate LeftBrain/RightEmBodied bicameral
cognitive-verbal/intuitive-nonverbal powers
potentiating sacred co-passion
conjoining organic cooperative pleasure

In discovering co-relational health powers
and ecologically wealthy light
within both public and personal transformative domains

Neurological anthro-scapes
and ecological landscapes
positive win/win networking
toward culture/climate health,
interior as exterior

Powers to love,
to compassionately communicate
verbally and nonverbally
what we all wish to become

To give forward co-redemptive democratic health
and ecologically valued inter-religious wealth

Not ever-more privately condemning,
and publicly criminalizing,
marginalizing,
capitalizing against
eviscerating powers

To ever-more polyculturally engage
polytheistic
EarthJustice
sacred-mind/organic-body vocational destiny
of sufficiency
simplicity
compassionately pleasing peace.

Positive local-ego and global-eco balanced psychology
through more cooperative bicameral discourse
and less competitive anthropocentric debate

Co-passionate discernment
for happy, healthy, and kind multicultural ecotherapy

Not degenerating ever-more losses
into frenzied
cognitive v intuitive
thought v feeling
mind v matter
sacred v organic
brain v body
human v divine

Dissonance
dissociation
dualism
divorce
demented LeftBrain domination writ large

Global economic and political competition values
deemed more evolutionarily efficacious
than cooperative bicameral
dipolar co-arising
co-passionately co-empathic
peaceful pleasures
of AnthroMindFullness inside
EarthEmbodied integrity
inter-religiously manifest
outside

Together
embracing positive eco-psychology
of enlightened empowerment,
contrasted with economically unenlightened
and politically disempowering
irreligious RightWing trauma.

SunDay Before Selection

I asked my drab dressed Sabbath Teacher,
Who do you think Jesus would vote for?

As was her way
even today
she had her querulous say,
What would Jesus do?

He would ask,
and so should all of you,

Is this a loving
kind thing
to do
or not do?

Is this a loving
caring relationship
to continue,
to widen
and deepen,
to feed health,
to breed safe natural beauty wealth?

I was nearly asleep
by the time she sing-songed her predictable
faith-based dance
through the litany
of Jesus begat HealthyLove
when she delivered that last
politically curious line.

What would Jesus do
or not do
to feed and breed safe
natural
beautiful
and truly resilient wealth?

How would Jesus vote
or not vote
to feed and breed
neurosystemically resonant
resiliently sacred
peace communion wealth?
Might be how my SocialPsychology Preacher
would LeftBrain think to ask

How will each bipartisan win/win candidate
vote
or not vote,
act
or not act,
speak
or stay silent,
to feed and breed
neurosystemically healthy,
cooperative neuro-diverse wealthy,
compassionate verbal
and nonverbal CommunioNation?

Is this a loving
caring
kind vote
for healthy neurosystemic relationships
to win/win grow,
to continue to feed sacred enlightenment
and breed consensexual
passion/pleasure
Left/Right
bicamerally intelligent empowerment?

Which is maybe
what my dour Sabbath Teacher
was hoping to feed and breed
on that last class
before transparently vulnerable selection
to widen EarthTribe’s
safe
natural
beauty enlightened CommonWealth,
and deepen
neurosystemically spiritual
empowering
panentheistic health

Well sung
and wellness danced,
liberally enlightened
and conservatively empowered,
left and win/win right
into my Jesus-informed
trauma-free voting booth.

Compassion’s Braver Angels

Impressive values,
like love,
claim resources that liberally breed
ecological
natural
physically happy health
and conservatively feed
emotional
spiritual
mentally glad wealth.

Oppressive disvalues
like homophobia and racism
and sexism and ageism
and ableism
and monoculturing disregard
for threats of global anthro-supremacist ecocide,
express what we are against
because these are sources of sadness,
bad health suppressions,
sad impoverishing depressions,
even mad disrepairing
retributive repressions,
investments in revenge,
apartheid demands for militarized retribution,
negative win/lose 0-sum
closed system reparations
repeating historical-monocultural
entrenched distrusted dissociations

Continuing viciously recycling
straight white patriarchal injustices
rather than positive win/win restorations
of positive
herstorical virtue circles,
polyculturally spacious
inclusive webs of EarthMatriarchal Peace.

The proposed 8th prime principle
does not positively promote
therapeutic justice.

Decontextualized focus on what we are against
betrays giving full mindful 4th Principle witness to
our disvalue shadows
against economically exploitive monopolies,
colonizing monocultural trauma,
white patriarchal monotheistic supremacy,
straight cisbinary monotony,
monochromatic anthroprivileged risk
overwhelming Earth’s resilient therapeutic opportunity.

Our health and environmentally safe wellness values
for compassionately mediating our 7th positive principle
breed universal health
and feed unitarian wealth
of sacred EarthMother’s unconditionally warm working web
playing interdependently win/win games
promoting resonantly sentient love lives,
resources,
seeds,
nonviolent wombs
polyculturing sacred communion

Like 8th Principle sperm
universally purposed
to conjoin EarthTribe’s unitarian
green/blue 7th Principle egg.

Our 7th Principle declares our positive joy
for healthy natural life
and wealthy spiritual love
embedded in sacred EarthMother’s empowering web
valuing co-invested AnthroPeace Warriors
co-infested Muses
co-passionate Sages.

Do we need and want an 8th Principle
taking a bold
unprecedented
revolutionary further step
to explicitly articulate what we actively disvalue
as the ecological antithesis
of Earth’s sacred systemic 7th Principle
of a polyculturally inclusive EarthTribe
restoring our sacred green/blue indigenous communion?

I believe our positive principles
of therapeutic health,
happiness,
empowering a wealthy sacred win/win web of polycultural beauty,
enlightened Earth/Anthro balance,
grows non-violently profound neurosystemic peace,
culminating in peak experiences
of our most recent 7th Principle.

And I believe in the synergetic completion
of perfectly pitched 8 octaves
for articulating MuseTherapy Resilience.

When the first photograph
of Earth’s revolving
green-blue living egg-womb
was broadcast back to Earth,
anthro-privilege could physically see Her
sacred healthy wealth
of profound eco-political value,
in Her health-wealthy prime
7th unitarian value
of PolyCultural Communion.

Now, in this new post-millennial Anthropocene,
we already begin to feel threats
of EarthSystemic oppression,
neurosystemic chronic trauma,
EarthTribe depression,
anxiety,
onset of anthrosupremacist remorse,
rabidly defensive denial
of rapaciously incorporated overpopulation,
despair that Win Universal Earth
and Win Unitarian Anthro healthy 7th Principle Consciousness
of herstorically positive indigenous intent
for whole-systemic thrival
too quickly fades,
foreshadowing today’s 8th Principle dispassionate discernment.

If we would dismantle sacred Earth’s historical-monocultural
systemic trauma Oppressors
of organic regenerators
recreating love-life’s multigenerational
PolyCultural Communion,
Then we might choose to restore 7th Principle EarthJustice
by letting go of less resilient
traditional win/lose anthrosupremacist images
breeding neurosystemic dissociation
and feeding toxic disvalues
of patriarchal monotheistic colonization,
monoculturing cisbinary predation,
capital economic monopolization
of therapeutic EarthMother sacred healing values
choosing regeneratively felt win/win
universally open, transparent
and unitarian holistic, vulnerable
ecotherapeutic webbed, nonjudging
nonblaming
nonshaming systems
for restoring PolyCulturing Communion

Thereby dismantling 8th negative anti-trauma disvalues
confronting Anthropocene privileged systems
of history’s monotheistic imaged
patriarchal natural capitalistic maninfested destiny,
a win/lose devolutionary privileged assault
and dispassionate battery
overpowering EarthTribe’s restorative peace
ecotherapeutic resources.

Can Earth’s monotheistic major force
of retributive injustice nature
grieve
and repent
and commit to restore
7th Principle panentheistic wisdom peace
for this,
and the next 7 sacred millennia?

Bicamerally indigenous compassionate minds
want wealth conserving hearts
and need health liberating bodies
to wisely know
life-loving
neurosystemically intelligent
Win/Win 7th Principle
therapeutic opportunities
for EarthTribe sacred healing
AND Monoculturing AnthroSupremacist
Win/Lose 8th Principle
trauma warnings
against further EarthMother dissociative harm

Against impressive values,
reconnecting love,
reclaiming 7th Principle resources
that liberally breed
ecological
natural
physically happy health
and conservatively feed
emotional resonance
spiritual resilience,
mentally glad wealth.

Orthodox v Orthopraxis

Yogi Berra said:
In theory there is no difference from practice.
In practice, there is

Applying this to communication theory:
In nonviolence theory
there is no difference from practice
of win/win compassion.
Yet, in Business as Win/Lose Usual
Patriarchal political monoculturing practice
and Capital monopolistic economic intent
there are no virtues calculated for compassionate communication,
for merciful creolizing political views,
and restorative forgiveness
for matricidal sins
of our StraightWhite Patriarchs

Ignorant about healthy polycultural,
resilient
therapeutic integral relationships
in response to systemic trauma.

Nonviolent communication orthodoxy
enlightens everything
but nothing positive win/win prevails.
Compassion’s transparent and vulnerable win/win practice
unveils every positive relationship
becoming co-empowered
but no one person knows why.

In our EarthRestorative lab,
nonviolent verbal theory
and compassionate nonverbal practice
are bicamerally combined:
nothing win/lose prevails
and every resilient relationship
compassionately feels why
0-sum theoretical assumptions
do not comply
with Earth’s Whole Open Systemic
virtuously therapeutic practice
of avoiding viciously competitive theories.

ReCentering Domestic NonViolence

This brisk, sunny March morning, I return from delivering my son to his adult daycare van.

Upon opening The Norwich Times, I delight to read the new Center for Safe Futures “will be taking a huge step forward in how well we can serve the growing number of our neighbors who need help with domestic violence…”

After reading the article, I am delighted about this significant half-step toward a more integrated and holistic service structure to improve safety and well-being outcomes for victims and survivors of violence, assault, stalking, physical and verbal hate-crime abuse, black-market sale pricing for using powerless and unheard and unseen and uncared for human bodies commodified to provide third party capital profits, and other disturbing forms of predative trauma.

Violently polarizing drama threatens trust in neighborhood-felt survival, and our civil, compassionate community thrival, every time we hear, and, god forbid, exhaustively watch depressing, national history-making news brought to us by our uncivil, wounded and wounding retributive criminal justice systems; uncaring, unhealthy, and certainly not holistic empowerment systems for nonviolent reconciliation.

My colleagues on the Norwich Youth, Family, and Recreation Advisory Board have become used to my eagerness to celebrate half-steps toward win/win strategic restorative peace while simultaneously sternly reconsidering our missing nonviolent communication step away from retributive win/lose justice systems. World wide webs pitching prey against predator, cultivating my despair about polarizing dissociative drama rooted in divisive demonizing trauma systems that do not empower resilient health and safely resonant domestic wealth.

Down near the bottom of the first front-page column I read, “Service providers and community partners will work together to break the [systemic trauma] cycle of violence and abuse.” Wow! Now this is an unexpected good news mission statement!

On second thought, it does echo messianic scriptured messages about the Christian Prince of Peace’s salvific mission, and that, so far, feels like an aging, poor in spirit, and increasingly despairing half-empty step toward downsizing EarthJustice expectations for global nonviolent peace and justice.

In my wild decaffeinated morning meditations, this eagerly anticipated aspiration, to break the win/lose bonds of systemic trauma, reminds me of a huge covenant change proposed for discussion at All Souls UU, in New London.

“We covenant to dismantle racism and all forms of systemic oppression.” I wonder how we would practice such powerful “Beloved Community” passion. How could our faith communities help break the vicious cycle of violence, abuse, and emotional neglect fueling neurosystemic trauma?

Perhaps Restorative Justice and Peace Reconciliation practices of nonviolent communication could empower transparent and vulnerable dialogue between defendants and predators, so often brought together and stuck together by addictive codependence–which feels safer, and economically healthier than aching loneliness, emptiness, hopelessness, despair of punishment, shame, blame, Othering judgments that we do not merit unconditional warm regard.

My own therapeutic feelings of hope, informed by Multicultural Community Mediation, focusses on safer and healthier and emotionally wealthier compassionate relationships. Empowering intention and win/win designed retention I cannot find in this article. It misses a redemptive half-step that could prophetically declare we will not tolerate the “vengeance is mine” heresy that perpetuates future victimization. Excommunication brought to us by judicial and police systems inciting weaponized trauma among those voted least likely to succeed by disassociated peers.

Is it reasonable to hope this Center for Safe Futures, and all the best intervention and prevention practices advertised by an expanding Family Justice Center model may be fully baptized in the peace-making waters of Restorative Justice?

Will domestically healthy and safe mission statements survive the ribbon cutting to become resiliently saved from past systemic trauma sins of our Straight White Patriarchal fathers?

I guess I’m still waiting, as my acidic coffee stomach turns cold with impatient curiosity, for some other brilliantly brighter good news front-page article announcing the multiculturally grand virtues of neurosystemic trauma-informed therapeutic projects to ReCenter Healthy Bodies and Safe Mind Wellness Futures.

Compassionate futures that restore virtuous communion circles of therapeutic repair–and not viciously retributive, accountability trauma hierarchies continuing to promise more efficiently enlightened from-above services, still half-stepping toward managing a universally disunitarian pandemic of dissociative despair.

MusEcology of Peace

I would like to see

and feel a peaceful day
and silent night

When guns
are as rare as typewriters

When partisan hate
is as extinct as flying dinosaurs

When ranting out of anger
to instill fear
is as astounding
as love letters
written on rice paper
in compassionate cursive.

I would like to hear
free speech
can’t be hate preach
because anger
and fear
and dogmatic rage are limiting
and divisive
and rabidly dissonant,
dissociative

Conserving win/lose
endlessly expensive
back-and-forth debate

Which does not win/win
free mind and body
resiliently liberate.

Hate speech
costs our favorite EarthTribes
everything,
every healthy

relationship.

Free speech
creates rich
resilient
resonant
musical and wise compositions,
civil literature,

Deliberating life
delivering desegregating communities,

advance our co-invested Grace.

Dialogue,
heart-filled discussion
restores free peace

Co-empathic
co-invested
co-operative
non-violet deep co-passions.

Conducting empowered multicultures
dwelling in enlightened wellbeing

Circles
and round cursive spirals
of community wellness danced

In public squares
and parks

Under shade trees
by day
and freely twinkling stars
by night.

I would like to see
and hear
and feel this peaceful day
and silent dancing
purple night

When automated guns
are as rare as electric typewriters

When impoverishing hate
and fear-provoking speech
are as extinct as predative dinosaurs.
