Sacred Time Travel

My body restrains my mind.
Logic as ecologically constrained,
naturally rational,
like rain does not fall up
unless I am standing on my head.

Embodiment also limits my mind.
Imagination often resists such sparse powers,
yet thrives on simplicity
without devious duplicity.

I can imagine pleasure of mind
capable of visiting China for an hour one day
and one night,
a particular coastal town,
a particular family,
a particular other body
looking back at me
imagining how he would look and sound
to someone like me
from a coastal town in the U.S.
And then my mind’s eyes become his,
looking out at his loved ones
and actively distrusted ones
and his vistas and landscapes and climate smells
and hopes and fears.

Then the tip of South Africa
in the next hour,
then visiting both Syria and Korea
five hundred years ago
to explore constancy and change
in how we look and sound,
smell and taste,
how we feel trusting and mistrusting
and how we might feel about my ego-mind
left disembodied behind

Then visit again five hundred years from now
to notice in this same variety of ego-
and eco-
conscious passion ways.

In all these disembodied images
my frequent flyer
yet frugal ego remains
relentlessly enclosed
by limitations of my own body’s discontinuous memory
of ego-eco recentering mind,
favoring transparent fluidity of confluence,
aesthetics of peace
contagious passions
pleasure in symmetry
full-color harmony

Therapeutic integrity of time travel
resonantly trusting in
and dissonantly mistrusting out
momentarily before breathing back in
with equanimity.

Becoming extended out through Earth organic
space and time,
only and finally to come back to rest
within polyculturally edified
yet eco-politically simplified
reconnecting presence
of still ego/eco centering me

Hoping you will love how I look and sound,
smell and taste,
feel and empathically trust
at least as much as my mind can
comprehensively engage phylogenic connection

We human natures each and all meta-morphically breathe in,
evolutionarily extend out
to transcend mere ego images,
befriending frugal flow of trusting EarthTribes
past history
and future mystery.

My body restrains
and trains my mind
as anthropocentric evolution constrains
organic Earth’s co-empathic ethology,
as Earth ethotic landscapes
retrain out
restrain in
sacred climates of compassion.

Podcast Episode: Power, Ecology, And Care

Pip: gdill52 is back, and this week the site goes from national economic policy to the neuroscience of intimacy — which, honestly, is a wider range than most cable news networks manage in a full quarter.

Mara: That's the territory we're covering today — a sharp critique of trickle-down economics, and a dense, playful meditation on polyamory and peer therapy. Let's start with the money — or more precisely, who's keeping it.

Trickle-Down Economics Critique

Pip: The central argument here is that trickle-down theory was always a promise, and the poem What Trickles Down is interested in what happens when the people promising it say the quiet part loud.

Mara: The poem sets up the contradiction directly — here's the line: "he paid so very little income taxes because it is his sacred duty to himself his family his stockholders, corporately invested infesters, to pay as little tax and operating fees as legally possible so there is more to hoard, and less and less to trickle out."

Pip: So the upshot is that the ideology and the behavior are openly in conflict — the man advocating for wealth flowing downward is describing, in his own words, a system designed to stop that flow entirely.

Mara: The poem names this directly — what was sold as economic generosity becomes, in the poem's phrase, "The Upper Caste Constipated minimal trickling out of capital hoarding." That's not a policy critique dressed up as poetry; that's the policy critique stated as plainly as it gets.

Pip: And the ending earns its disgust — the "humble caregivers opening your golden ballroom doors for tips and cleaning your several stressed toilets, where yellow and brown too slowly trickle down." The metaphor completes itself, and it does not flatter anyone.

Mara: What the poem is really doing is holding the stated theory against the revealed preference — and finding that the theory was always cover for the preference.

Pip: From tax policy to something considerably harder to summarize — the next piece asks what therapy looks like when the framework is entirely its own.

Polyamory And Peer Support

Mara: Polyamorous Peer Therapy arrives as a dialogue — one voice offering an elaborate, systems-theory-inflected vision of healing, the other gently noting they are not, in fact, into talk therapy.

Pip: The offering voice goes deep fast: "PolyAmorous Squared/Fractal cobinary remembering ontological neural landscapes reproducing therapeutic design with glial-indigenous peak communication climates of bilateral egoCrown/ecoRoot polyamorous therapy."

Mara: What this means in practice is that one speaker is building a complete cosmology — Yang, Yin, glial networks, fractal patterns, win-win game theory — and the other speaker's response is essentially: we prefer the sound of the ocean.

Pip: The gap between those two positions is where the poem lives, and it is a genuinely funny gap.

Mara: The piece ends with the elaborate-theory speaker losing their audience entirely — "Oops, I think I lost them" — and the closing exchange, "Don't talk dirty, dear. Unless you mean it," lands as the warmest possible punctuation on the whole construction.

Pip: It's a poem about connection that enacts the difficulty of connection — which is either very clever or exactly what you'd expect from something titled Polyamorous Peer Therapy.


Mara: Two very different registers — political anger and intimate comedy — but both are interested in the same question: what actually gets shared between people, and what gets held back.

Pip: Next time, we find out what else is on the site. Hopefully something about infrastructure, just for the range.

Higher Health Powers

I was noticing that those in the Unitarian Universalist Association,
with which I am more or less anonymously affiliated
in some far too sensitive way for personal comfort,
believe in three prime sources for their (our) truth search,
rather like a revised holonic trinity,
equally at home for Buddhist monk
or Islamic
or passionate Christian
not at all black v white
saint v sinner
fundamentalistic.

The first of these is a Higher Power.
Now this must have been written by the Yang Universalists
within the Universal-Unitarian assembly,
because every wholesome Yin Unitarian knows
that what is a Higher Power for Universalist Yangers
is also a Deeper Power for Unitarian Yinners
bilateral Both upside And downside winners;
so, a HigherYang/DeeperYin Power.

Then we come to the second source,
YangLife and YinDeath.
Now any bicamerally balanced Unitarian/Universalist,
just as any Wu-Wei Taoist,
knows there is always something of Yin within Yang
and vice versa;
so, not fundamentalistic
Yang v Yin

Just as there is something of our daytime lives
in our nighttime dreams
and vice-versa

Sometimes inductive dream work
presents bipartisan incisive insights
into next morning’s Win/Win transformation

For a breathlessly filling balance
of ego- and eco-consciousness,
empathically trusting in healthy Yang universal life
and safety of exhaling final Yin unitarian death

Leaving further climatic paradoxes
and coaxial dialectic nondualities
for future regenerations to sift through,
feel,
engage,
please,
tease,
comprehend and decompose
to then reweave again
thicker,
deeper peace

As full-octaved light emerges from
resonantly empowering
deep penetrations and dark circlusions
so organic life emerges from sacred mini-death
mind explosions with body erosions

Coital absence of disparate life at ego-centered levels
posing both ecological risk and anthropocentric opportunity
in wider and deeper EarthMother nurtured
cobinary becoming
polyamorously together.

Finally, we have sacred words and ways,
YangLogos and YinMythos,
integrity’s passion/pleasure experience
reflected in remembering language
of ancient copulation
populations,
presumably filled and emptying
and refilling with both higher and deeper
caste powers.

So, that’s it.
We have higher patristic Universal Light
with deeper bicameral learning
matriarchal Unitarian Power

Living when not dying
to win YangSpirit/YinNature nonduality together,
as written in fusing-fractal DNA, and RNA

Each sacred ecological re-generative
co-operative
re-productive rights
and re-creation wrongs
EarthWealth story.

Now our 3-Source trinitarian story takes us to 7 Principles,
which some permaculturists would expand out to 12,
while spiraling octavists, and maybe sufis and artists, stop at 8,
which eyes and ears reweave
into a regenerative bilateral-fractal 4
seasons of health and safety restoration

Perennial transformation
or cooperative system regulation
and self/other governance

if you are a Yin-Unitarian NonZero-Sum economist
or a Yang-Universal EarthRights healthcare politician
or possibly even nondual BothCrown/AndRoot
alive and growing
out your extending UU-Taoist family
tribe,
species,
garden,
continent,
planet

Wu-Wei in-between horizontal space
and vertical times
where Sun greets Earth radiant horizens
nondually high and deep co-arising seeds,
trees
indigenous needs

And other bilateral root ego health
and branching eco-safety systems
seeking both higher enlightenment
and deeper empowerment

Day and night
reweaving continuous life
and discontinuous death

Not to become confused
with degenerative twitters
bitters
bites and fights
fleeing and freezing
fundamental win v lose might.

Neglecting Top v Bottom Lines

I worry we co-invest in big private and public corporate assault
on Earth,
on environmentalism,
on longer-term ecologic
and ecotherapy.

Really, honey?
That’s too bad.
Why not also see long-term assault
as the unintended outcome of short-term neglect
to give cooperative win/win care,
health nurturing behavior,
Golden Rule empowering economics,
like we learned in Sunday School stewardship class?

Well, yes, I guess I can see that.
And yet, responsibility for dispassionate neglect
is not the accountability I seek
for assault on climate health

Multicultural landscapes of regenerative, rather than degenerative, potential,
slow-grown compassion fertility,
organically resilient,
full color octaves of strong-hued eloquence,
resonance for future Earth reweaving regenerators.

I wonder if it helps
to remember that assault derives from learned fear-mongering critical-event behavior,
while neglect speaks to more chronically anxious systems
of over-investment in short-term corporal and corporate ego-inflation,
rather than short-through-long-term
mental/physical
ego/eco
inside/outside
bicameral/bilateral
regenerative therapeutic balance?

Win+Win thriving regeneration
health-care targets
big ego-corporate’s Win v Lose survivalist degeneration.

I think you give sins of anthropocentrism too much evil conspiracy credit
and not enough human neglect
of long-term ecological reward anticipation credit.
When positive growth
is measured only in producing accumulation of human wealth
for investors, taxpayers and shareholders,
without any thought to quantities of resources consumed
in exchange for this production,
this feeds further disvaluing neglect
of investment in caregiving and receiving
long-term consuming and producing
cooperative win/win woke up fullness.

You are reminding me
of all the corporations I have ever known
with four-generation Mission Statements
about their corporate Original Intent,
yet, at best, four-quarter profit-making projections,
positive budgetary outcome
wish lists.

And then, too,
we have the four-generation campaign promises
derived from public corporate officials’ ReGenerative Constitutional Intent,
yet, at best, a 6-year re-election cycle,
and more likely 4-year,
or even just 2.

Yes, we do seem to have a degenerative tension
between the post-revolutionary Constitution’s Original Intent
to keep this democratizing revolution going,
for cooperating with the healthy wealth of Earth
and our nation-state neighbors,
as diplomatically and economically possible,
and within our own multiculturing liberties and justices,
peaceful compassions and pleasures
re-acclimating
anticipation of bountiful peace
into diminished restraining tolerance
of un-ecological risk denial

Traumatizing dissociations
organic life-systems could never nutritionally celebrate,
tearing families from their homes,
children from their terrorizing/terrorized parents,
young adults from their malnourished
self-medicating
Defense Business As Competitively Usual

In neighborhoods
of not so neighborly
systemic trauma environments.

Democratizing embodied Constitutions
co-arise economic health
and political wealth

A healthcare ethos
human history could not engage,
much less sustain,
without the compassionately pleasing Other

Where sacred EarthTribe co-investment
in expansive democratization,
mental/physical healthcare maturation,
mutual acclimation,
creolization of Elite with NonElite co-passion

Are drawn with loops and poignant pointing dots
of periods and episodic commas

Deriving objectives for Earth’s co-arising health
and fertile wealthy prosperity

Rich iconic compost
for producing cooperative economic climates,
health empowering landscapes
less likely to neglect ecological values
when drawing economic corporate wisdom’s
co-operative
co-gravitating
co-passioning original
top and bottom encircling
co-spiraling lines.

Pleasing Answers Prefer Passionate Questions

Do heated questions hope to end with cool answers,
while pleasing answers never end
without yet more compassionate questions?

How are Case Studies
of anxious organic history
different than sacred Einstein’s
anticipating Thought Experiments?

Wait a minute…

Yes, well that’s not really a difference.
Thought Experiments and Case Studies
both begin with waiting a minute

to notice cause v effect assumptions,
to decompose bifurcated relationships
between sacredly interrelated organic parts

of what
and whom?

Imagining in reverse time,
from now as cause
back toward effects
leading up to my current favorite cause

current noticing,
sometimes chaotic and unsettling
waiting a minute
to notice struggling against

Feels worse
than struggling with?

Do brains
casing out disorganized thoughts
feel more important
than brawn?

And why is this different
than why that?

Does, or does not,
organic complexity
actively hope
for resonant riches?

Is this really democracy’s healthiest question to ask?

Within all Earth’s vast universe
of sacred questions,
could love invest in life more
instead of hell less?

Is this, more or less, probably more,
what you are trying to point out
before I interrupt your thoughtful minute?

Do democratic rulers
find Golden Rules flattering,
and their reverse fascinating?

When don’t richer Case outcomes
invite more fertile Thought Experiments?

Why have I never heard of,
but often experienced,
a dysfunctional paralysis case
for more dysfunctional family studies?

And how is that different than,
or the same as,
an unhealthy patriarchal
and unsafe capitalist
Case Study?

Wait a minute,
when did we begin
declaring positions
always remain the same
when not opposed?

to asking about appositions?

Do we all start with co-passionate noticing?

Can we reverse hot times
back through bio-eros networks
of bilateral climaxing opportunity?

Yes, I suppose so,
but Einstein’s Thought Experiments were metaphysical,
cold mathematics
and unnatural science,
Aren’t Case Studies more like watching non-pornographic Reality Shows,
weaponized capitalist, and usually strong-man, Disaster Movies,
Freudian Nightmares on Mean Sheets?

How do I know
you hope to respond
to your own questions
with better questions?

about how thought systems are the same
when they don’t feel different?

Sorry, honey,
do you agree or disagree,
or both, somehow,
that Einstein’s Experiments are about metaphysical operations
while Case Studies
are about physical and natural operas?

Wait, a minute…
no, that doesn’t sound ecologically correct,
nor feel logically helpful

Are we better
sticking with naturally stuck wealth
realities
or freeing Earth’s spiritually flowing health
relationships?

Didn’t Einstein hope his Thought Experiments would lead to Truth,
therefore, not also False,
much less Ugly?

Measuring statements about space and speed
revolving time
and gratuitous power

evolving mass
and volunteering light?

When you write extended Dysfunctional Family Case Studies,
do you hope you speak Truth
but not Beauty?

About positive,
and, unfortunately, negative energy,
(0)-sum speed of sharing light,
massively devolving power,
a feeling of insufficient healing time
for sufficient health and safety
final answers.

Why is Truth
not always Beauty?

Because that would be confusing

Winning facts
with loser feelings?

If you say so,
but if thoughts grow complex
when do feelings show chaotic risk
and calming climate opportunities?

Wait a minute.
Sorry love.
When do Thought Experiments shut down?

Either True or False premises?

When was the last time you indulged
winning thrival opportunities,
and not losing survival risks?

Writing a lively Case Study
about love’s Thought Experiments

In Win/Win
bilaterally climaxing
mind thought
and body felt
co-passion Cases?

Well, when you ask that way
you come across
less of a dispassionate
Me win vs You lose

Dominating ass?

Who wouldn’t have the first clue
how a dogmatic Life Case Study
might feel less inviting
than a dog-gone lovely Thought Experiment.

Wait a minute…
You’re doing thoughts again.

That thing where you LeftBrain explicate
answers
while I RightBrain implicate
questions?

That somehow do not really quite exist
just yet

Outside of spaceless now
and timeless here?

Biassed
in favor of ecstatic climax
erotic fireworks!

You’re just teasing me, aren’t you?
This cums down to foreplay
in your favorite Thought Experiment?

I feel so used.

Don’t pretend your gorgeous Case Study
doesn’t like it.

Could you talk a little dirtier,
and leave out the exploitive capital
and over-rated patriarchal parts?

Less sacredly surreal
and more organically earthy?

Ummm.
That sounds like you’re ready

to stop performing
and start engaging?

Baby,
you’re the writing Sage

Asking if you
are still my dancing Muse?

Does your musing question hope to end
sooner or later?

With only one most sage answer.

Do answers ever end experiments
without yet more amusing
Curious Study questions?

Wait a minute,
did we leave out
our sexy
and sacred climaxing parts?

My mind feels so bruised,

My body too unused?

Coming To OneSelf

“And when he came to himself”
Luke 15:17

In another millennial time and Chinese/Russian place,
Taoism began as aphorisms and poetry
about political philosophy,
articulating a bicameral tension
between Conservative Yangers,
a patriarchal caste-preserving universe
of monotheistic empire builders,
and Unitarian Progressive Yinners, WinWinners,
a matriarchal cooperative
polycultural
panentheistic
integrative network of nurturers

(the longer the list of descriptors,
the less important history would prove us to be
cooperatively undifferentiated
empty of any sectarian-deductive labeling,
and anthropocentric framing function)

Hence, everyone knows the principles of Interdependent Yang
and not Empty Yin,
and usually metaphorically associate them with Male
and not FeMale,
and Positive and not Negative,
yet few have economically and/or politically defined
the governing power of +1 and -(-0) Tao.

We have the Tao of most every thing
and not no thing,
without necessarily being clear
about what the primal cobinary Tao
adds,
and doesn’t necessarily subtract,
to most every win/win governing identity.

In another millennial time
and New England and Baltimore place,
Reverend Channing proposed to replace the Holy Trinity

With God
the monotheistic LeftBrain Dominant
patriarchal EgoFather
[not EcoMother],
wearing universal regenerative credentials
of historically recognized effectiveness

And
with a pantheistic
RightBrain Unitarian
matriarchal OverSoul
of Grace
and Flow
and Karma
and Gaia’s not (0)-Sum Prime CoBinary Synergy
of ecologically integrative potential
becoming win/win hypostatically united
With God…

[repeat from “With God…” above]

All four Muse sisters co-arising cooperatively together
in ecopolitical health
and bicameral safety Paradise
of DNA with RNA Solidarity in fractal-nutritional seasons
with reasons actively supporting regenerative health,
Original CoBinary Win/Win Tao Intent.

A monotheistic-preserving
Winner v Loser evolutionary model
of mutually assured degeneration
and pantheistic-liberating
WinYang/WinYin ecological model
of regenerativity.

It is this Unitarian -(-0) Elder RightBrain OverSoul
that Reverend Julian Jaynes explores
as how we are prodigal son and daughter
and transient transgender transparent
anthropocentric Egos

and
OverSoul Atman PolyPaths of EcoConsciousness,
Prodigal Unitarians
progressing Ego-belonging minds
and safe body conservationists

Playing Win/Win with LeftBrain ego-centric
ecological discernment
of hypostatically cooperative
Gaia Hypothesis evolution

Rather than BusinessAsUsual LeftBrain idolatry
of competitive capitalistic dissociations,
and concomitant Protagonist v Antagonist violence
in the name of anthropocentric peacemaking

And pathological lack of long-term consciousness
in the name of cobinary eco-climates and ego-cultures
of and for healthy democratic freedom,
optimal protagonist/antagonist liberating safety,
nurturance,
regenerativity,
polypathic polycultural polyvagal systemic integrity.

“…[T]here is something else to be observed
as you study your own [bicameral cobinary] nature.
It is a something of supreme importance….
Suppose you observe in your daily [anthropocentric] consciousness,
now one,
now the other
asserting itself in thought and behavior;
who is it,
let us ask,
who is it
or what is it
that does the observing?”

Polypathic ego/eco-consciousness
of time’s ecologically regenerate v degenerate flow,
resonantly cobinary
and too often chaotically Left v Right
Yang-Crown v Yin-Root chakra dissonance.

“Are you not conscious of still another [Elder RightBrain pantheistic] self,
larger [deeper?] and more inclusive than the others,
that seems to be standing outside watching them,
counting them,
criticizing them,
applauding them [us]?”

OverSoul,
Atman,
Holy Spirit/Nature
holonic matriarchally co-passionate face
of Father Patriarch LeftBrain languaged,
Brahma’s hypostatic Tao
of Gaia;s cobinary win/win hypothesis.

“Who is it that wonders?”

“There are times when you fall so completely into the possession of one
of these smaller [anthropocentric-preserving] selves ,
that you lose all consciousness of the one watching [co-passionately listening] outside.
It is only afterward that the presence of the [actively curious] watcher
is seen and felt [perceived and received].
There are other times
when the [bicameral +1 v -(-0)] watcher
seems to be on the [winYang v LoseYin 0-sum] guard all the time,
and while the lesser [non-anthropocentric root-caste] personalities are having their way,
is continually sounding the word of [caste-preserving] rebuke
or [caste-liberating] encouragement….
You may call it [pantheistic] conscience,
or moral [polycultural] sentiment–
anything you please.
I like to give it the name I have already used
and call it the real
or the larger [bicameralcobinary YangLeft/YinRight] self.”

A rational Gaia panentheistic+1 = -(-0) belief
in an Original CoBinary Hypostatic Union
could be theologically universal “watching”
with regard to root source
of divinely empowering intelligence.

Earth’s anthropocentric watchers
of universally pantheistic ecological relationships
polyculturally progresses
across all win/win pronoia unitarians.

Resonantly inside as reiteratively outside,
rooted feelings below as crowned thoughts above
before +1 Space after -(-0) Time
positive as double-binding negative
Yang as not not Yin
Win/Win prodigiously polycultural.

Money Where Your Mouth Was

Jesus help me,
cried organic Mother Earth
to Adam’s sacred Sun,
I can’t be birthin’ all these anthro-privileged babies,

needing evangelical attention
to continue regeneratively thriving,
iconic DNA of wealth
rooted in cooperative RNA
prehistoric health values.

MotherEarth’s globally cooperative fueled economy
with two primal thermodynamic rules;

  1. you cannot have one without the other,
    so they co-arise,
    but reverse-correlationally
  2. ebbing and flowing dipolarity,
    yanging and yinning
    dynamic not not(0)-Tao
    potential for win/win
    nondualistic integrity.

to remain an organically interdependent entity
within a multi-regenerating Whole Living EcoSystem
of pantheistic economic integrity,
anticipating EcoBody’s health wealthing
integrally cooperative
co-empathically organic
communion pleasure

You see, pantheistic Yin, like RightBrain intuitive intelligence,
has no Yangish self-identity supremacist voice.
But, if she did,
we might call her Gaia Pronoia Nature,

like DNA-iconic fractal-dialectical synergy

First Evolutionary Thermodynamic Principle of ReGenerative EcoSystems,
invites pantheistic cooperative Right OVER LeftBrain competitive monotheism
to sustain primal climate regenerativity.

Science is all about Yang-deductive reductive
commensurably resonant anthropocentric-only facts please,
and is therefore less positive WholeSystem healthcare clear
about why some individual cells are mutually attracted,
rather than dismayed

What keeps anthropocentric monotheistic mindbodies united
in a pantheistically positive healthy ecotherapeutic system?

Indigenous SunFather wisdom
knows atomically synergetic geometric cobinary associations,
ergodic-rhythmic patterns of wave-linear co-gravitation
co-arising double-fractal resonantly resilient energy octaves
perpetually reviving double-bound bilateral systemic bodies
with bicamerally networking minds
exploring health wealthing
EarthMother synergetic phenomena.

Polycultural wealth sciences remind us
to keep mono-sapient selves within a self-perpetuating state
by consuming exactly as much empowering resonant energy
as 0-sum required
to produce enlightened economic resilience.

To try to store Patriarchal more,
will only lead to further Matriarchal losses
of sustainably synergetic EgoMind/EcoBody futures.

Jesus help us, sighed Mother Earth,
this ain’t no merciful way
to survive climate rebirth.

Solomon’s Question

Solomon,
hate to disturb you
but I have a question.
If I could grant you only one deepest love wish
for what you would achieve as your greatest strength
which virtue would you choose?

Well, thanks.
Great question.
Do we have such powers? I wonder.
What have others asked for?
Information about popular precedents,
including old age resilient outcomes,
could be helpful.

Some of the more popular gift requests
you already have covered,
in large part by being born into wealthy royalty,
but also endowed with those tall,
dark,
and handsome genes,
and your unusually resonant internal strengths
that will sustain your exterior beauty.

Top requests
include unilateral power over others,
to get one’s most effective
and efficient controlling way.

Then there is also unitarian power with others,
to invite our most authentic
inclusively cooperative compassionate way,
more popular with unstraight
unwhite
unmale polyamorous transgendered
human sapients.

Then there are requests for fame,
although these seldom, if ever,
seem to arrive as requests for love of fame,
suggesting some confusion between virtuous values
and vicious disvalues

Committing minds with bodies to fame’s opportunities
comes with traumatizing risks of vicious infamy,
emotionally malnourished neglect
and, too often, mind and/or body abuse
of empowered condemning authorities,
habitually threatening to withhold investments
in more positively valued
deep listening
democratically dialectical
powering-with affections.

Choosing wealth of unilateral fame
for a well-knowledged mind,
well-skilled
and bountifully beautied body,
will attract both passionately pleased admirers
and enviously displeased dissenters.

The stronger this public fame
the more concomitant private concerns develop
about personal future infamy,
loss of autocratic altitude,
and, with this chronic anxiety,
a growing sense of merely going through productive motions
without sustaining consumption of passionately engaging emotions,
more associated with greater love of wisdom’s resiliently healthy bodies
with resonantly democratic wealthy minds.

In the older age end, then,
it seems we have no other rational outcome choice
but love of regenerative power-with positive reputation
defending against my lust for power-over negative disputation

Wisdom balancing LeftBrain’s deductive powers
engaging virtuous ecological systems
are also Elder RightBrain’s inductive powers
with analogically co-arising
ecopolitical sapient wisdom.

Do we have such powers?
I remain in sacred wonder,
to engage wisely virtuous organic choices
more democratically empowering together,
rather than more infamously disheveled apart.

Reconnecting Creation Stories

It is at least interesting to turn life’s political economy backward
through reverse-time focus.

Life’s memories of an uphill journey,
perhaps even a sacred pilgrimage,
toward an ultimate death of ego identity,
giving way voluntarily, or not,
to Earth’s regenerative potential, or not.

Let’s call this ecoconsciousness of light

As we mature,
we ascend and wonder
if and how and when we might ever reach
what we so hope will be a Win wealthy mind
and Win healthy body
both elegant and robust
somehow

Re-imaged
time revolving against biological odds of decay,
for all future lives we dread leaving behind,
despite our original rebirth problem
of egocentric death,
purgation

Approaching older ages of ominous portent,
youth’s omnipotent hopes more or less dashed,
lifetime’s rewinding feels remarkably easier to turn
disembodied images backward
toward Earth’s original embryonic becoming,
and marvel at compassion’s organic journey
toward this won time and win-worn space

This almost post-mortem summarizing moment
of embodied ego emergence
against all love-line odds

Now more transparent
reviving vistas of distance holy gained
to remind ourselves about how cleverly
and often clumsily,
yet inevitably,
we have arrived on this sacred pilgrimage
toward ego death regaining eco-conscious life,
organic Earth ascending,
continuing to co-arise unlikely rebirth

Until all interdependent bodhisattvas
reach back and forth
toward Alpha and Omega
winning sacred Time again
hard winning organic Place
as these EgoMind/EcoBody twin lenses
transubstantiate back toward one sacred SunLight
reviewing organic EarthPower purpose

Looking backward,
down this pilgrim hill
climbed toward elder autumn moments

Momentous interwoven opportunity feels easier and lighter,
more helpful, even compassionate.

To reframe Thomas Aquinas
with a both cause and effect recycling twist:
S/he who considers
absolutely (0)Source Origins
the highest cause of the whole universe,
namely Earth’s Creator God,
and considers also sacred these remaining effects
of organic EarthPower’s universal pilgrimage
toward fertile eco-omnipotent ego identity,
is most of all called wise.

If Yang GodMind is cause
then so is Yin GoddessBody
wisdom’s in-and-out flowing effect

If God is first Light cause,
then GaiaEarth double-binds
final Light/Power
meaningfully repurposed effect.

This historic organizing organic path
our natural phylogenic evolution
informs our polycultured creation story
of sacramental revolutionary effects
reverse imaging back through anthropocentric absence

Polyamorous organic bodies
continuing throughout this prehistoric journey
looking back through our long communion

Often frightening and angry disuniting trauma
death
loss
necessary anxiety to conjoin anticipation
of 0-soul’s originating
wind coitally covering water
sacred light roundly hovering organic power,
polyamorous YangMind regenerates each polyculturing YinBody

Re-ligiously reweaving
Earth’s optimal Alpha and Omega
Win/Win outcomes
through Passion’s love
for co-empathic Pleasure’s trust

In Earth’s health-wealth optimizing time
along this retrospectively ecological up-crowning space
anthropologically down-rooting
EcoMind/EgoBody cobinding
spirited-Light/natured-Power co-passion

Sacramental organic pleasure’s
polyamorous healthcare journey
beyond anthro-history’s Creator birth.
