Dancing Life and Death

Who are we, rightfully left?

First and last, Mom’s parasite,
a resonantly peaceful tumor
with built in obsolescence.

Then, a moment between exodus
from symbiotic womb
into Earth’s promised Eden,
democratic trees for GoodLife
and not autocratic EvilDeath.

Then time to exhale again
one last self-regulating
timeless
fertile eternity,
regenerous nativity.

In between, economically driven politicians
hoping to improve our cooperative tribal improvisations
on Gaia’s liturgical soul-dance theme

With occasional speaking parts
after learning deep-listening wholes
on EarthTribe’s polycultural
life and death
light and dark
revolving stage

Reproducing embryonic ego-tumors
with built-in obsolescent peace;
a moment between dancing exodus
and cooperatively sung regenesis.

Monotheism and Fascism: A Deep Dive

The exclusively logical conclusion
of monotheistic-nationalistic strategizing,
rooted in anthropocentric caste-preservation,
is Winner or Loser fascism

AND

The inclusively ecological commencement
of polytheistic-international integrity,
flowering as Gaia Hypothesis caste-abolition,
is Winner and Winner panentheism.

Just as no one could sanely become
a fascistic panentheist,
we already have far too insanely many
monotheistic fascists.

The Sacred Balance of Yin and Yang in Earth’s Ecosystems

Once upon an eternal sacred time of Earth’s Golden Age,
Yin knew her body as a divinely virginal forested place
given equally to all for and of Earth’s holy

She, without language,
but with marvelously round holonic symmetry
and multisensory proportion,
recreated prolifically organic
panentheistic nurture systems

Bilateral crown/root shade trees
of cobinary up/down energies
with mutually subsidiary synergy

Santa’s Unseemly Red Parade

Santa arrived on our street yesterday
spewing considerable exhaust
while riding atop a parade of firetrucks and vans,
floodlit like a nativity display at night,
full sirens and blaring Christmas carols
competing for my Fetal Alcohol daughter’s rapt attention.

Santa rolls at stately parade pace,
while ever more impatiently
my troubled daughter jumps and eagerly awaits to pounce.

For me,
much too soon,
Santa spots her leaning out our screen door,
disembarks with great royal dignitary pace
to walk the long quest for prey
on our front porch.

As I feared,
after an unconvincing HoHoHo?
Without waiting for introductions,
Santa goes straight to his task at hand:
What do you want for Christmas, little girl?

I don’t know
Haven’t thought about it.
I’m sure it’s not a stinky and loud Santa parade.
Anyway, I’m still working on what I’m giving for Christmas.

That’s awesome.
I don’t hear a lot of that.

It’s not awesome!
It’s complicated!
My dad said I should only give gifts that by giving them
I will also receive gifts.

I’m not sure I have any gifts like that.
Last year you asked for an American Girl doll.

Yes, but this year I’m working on giving American Princess me,
instead of settling for your plastic dolls.

Won’t you need costuming and make-up
to become the All American princess?

You would think so,
but my dad says they don’t meet his gift-it-forward rule
to recycle and receive back.

So what do you think you’re going to get,
or give,
or both, I guess?
although Santa’s feeling red
about green co-redemptive gifts,
and I do still have far to go.

And you left your diesel-fueled truck idling.
I’m leaning toward kindness,
’cause princesses are always kind,
but my dad is asking for greater wisdom,
which is something he actually does need.
And I know you don’t have any to offer
or you wouldn’t begin and end Christmas
by asking people what they want,
instead of asking us what we have to give
that might make life feel a little less snarky
come New Year’s Day,
while your truck continues to stink up the neighborhood.

Santa returned to his royal red firetruck
somewhat faster than he had arrived
on my wise American princess daughter’s
green front porch.

Harmony of Right and Left Brain: Cooperative Wisdom

A happy healthy and wealth-integrated
indigenously pleasing/displeasing RightBrain
grows maturely peaceful as a calm winter night,
content to allow LeftBrain to ego-chatter away
debating further cooperative win/win plans
for Earth’s and Elder RootBrain’s and,
most immediately and satisfyingly therapeutic,
newer CrownBrain’s best beloved belonging day.

In an evolutionary historical sense,
we are each and all,
WesternDominant and EasternRecessive bicameral
moving NorthernMind and SouthernBody bi-hemispheres,
RightBrain embedded in EarthMother’s yin-flowing
regenerative yang-stengthening
emergently extending love’s warm universal womb

Before enlightening exposure
to Either/Or deductive springs
of AnthroPrivileged
bilateral Both/And cobinary intelligence

Bringing newborn eumemic trust
in One GodSun’s ethotic crowning truth
experienced through GaiaEarth’s erotic rooted beauty

Passion and Pleasure
reborn light of FatherSun’s democratically radiant trust
in what is MidWay warm
co-empowering Earth’s green caste
not too zealously condemning red hot
and not too silently victimized blue cold.

This integratively cooperative and nurturing economy
of RightBrain’s root erotic chakra,
listens to deep ecologically learn, regenerate, remember
LeftBrain’s ethotic crown co-investment chakra,
with both wise yang opportunities
and overly reductive dis-yintegrative risks.

Yintegral Wisdom
RightBrain deep flowing
Yang’s polypathic bicameral imagination
toward spacious/timeless capital-invested
1(0)-cobinary belonging,
void of any cognitive v affective
ethotic v erotic
crown v root
remaining upper v lower caste dissonance

Resistance to Yang/Yin cooperative ecopolitical contentment
within this silence
of a warm winter night’s co-redemptive womb,
becoming evolution’s further revolution
of not said not silent
ethos/eros co-empathic
passion/pleasure bliss

Multiculturing hope
in bicamerally co-arising nonduality
of ecological empowerment
through winter’s contenting hibernation

Calm before more fractured convergence storms
of 20/20 perception/reception co-passionate laughter,
remembering how unSage LeftBrain has been
to not see RightBrain’s muzzled Muse health
in AnthroPrivileged co-empathic song and dance
cooperatively mediated
cobinary SunFather/EarthMother
crown enlightened ethos-telling
root empowering
eros-swelling wealth.

Integrating Ecology and Psychology for Global Resilience

I’m reading The Evolving Self:
A Psychology for the Third Millennium,
by Czikszentmihalyi,
and How the West [sadly] Came To Rule:
The Geopolitical Origins of Capitalism,
Alexander Anievas and Kerem Nisanciogla
at the same time.

Czikszentmihalyi (C) wears academic labels of Positive Psychology,
interested in why and when and where
our neurosystemic psyche’s do cooperatively flow best,
and when our upper-caste preserving ego identities are more likely to get in the way
of resilient mental happiness,
a poly-empathic cobinary bliss zone.

Anievas and Nisconciogla (A&N), well, it’s complicated,
but Anievas wears a political scientist label,
and is interested in why and when and where differentiated economic and political forces are more competitively successful,
winning intercontinental history’s weaponized
ecosystemic trauma,
triggering further violent
dispassionate
unpleasant
and monotheistically unfortunate anthropocentrism.

This ecopolitical irreligious story unfolds
unevenly empowered by resilient polycultural resonance,
regenerative communications between healthy land
and prospering human associations
favoring multiculturally curious
eumemically (inter-religiously) positive
neuro-normative passion/pleasure
mind/body integrity

At least within our more Earth-matriarchal/Anthro-child
positive-associative healthcare home front
of transgenerational inter-religious development,
formation

Win omni-sentient Anthro-Mind neurosystemic peace
by co-passionate Gain-System strategizing
to resiliently Win
omni-pleasing EarthBody ecosystemic pleasure,
interdependently matriarchal
familial
and/or beloved tribal,
and/or democratically ecopolitical
monoculture-abolishing
creolization systems.

Here, international power relations
are less likely to grow up
and blow up
to become the proud military-capital invested parents
of our own internal winner v loser prodigal children,
human-caste elites stuck in preserving defensive evolution,
resisting neuro-offensive win v lose chronic devolution,
against synergetic wealth of non-elite sentient beings.

It remains unclear whether these Western Winners might have chosen to optimize more inclusive West/East and North/South bihemispheric meta-strategic Win/Wins
by leading with cooperative ecopolitical co-empathic trust
in interdependent organic safety
and sacred GaiaMother’s inter-religious web
of pronoia life co-operative neuro/eco-systemic belonging

Just as this is often unclear within our day-to-day anthro-family feuds,
or even the egoLeft-ecoRight bicameral battles
written across each ethotic-erotic
thought-safe/felt-belonging
Peace Warrior human heart.

I start wondering if C’s co-arising forces of Me v We ego-differentiation
within SafeSelf-with-BelongingOther pronoia flow
win/win strategic health-system opulence could,
on a wider, more geopolitical, scale,
be dynamically equivalent to A&N’s uneven Us v Them
geo-political maturation
within potentially integral
polyculturally associative
win/win pronoia strategic
polyculturing inter-religious prosperity,
ebbing and flowing internationally enlightened
and intercontinentally empowering trends
toward democratic-rich
caste-abolishing nurturance.

Appositional cobinary nondualism is at work in Yang force
midway appositional balancing,
rather than oppositionally opposing, Yintegral pronoia flow,
NorthWest monopolistic caste-preservation
patriarchal dominance
reserved for neurosystemic anthro-survival strategies
within ecosystemic normative thrival

Whole Open EcoSystemic
compassionate neuro-communication strategies

health/wealth compassionate communication

Gaia-womanist
neuro-strategic positive eumemic
international democracy
intercontinental pronoia

cobinary ethoticYang/eroticYin
co-intelligent peace development.

RightBrain felt multisensory intuition
could be an important resource
for Positive NeuroPsychology’s health-nurturing flow patterns
and resonant belonging rhythms
toward AnthroMe/EarthTribe-We
sacred/organic
ethotic/erotic
safe-purpose/deep-belong-meaning
co-redemptive symbiosis,
co-empathic healthy-ethos/loving-eros trust
extending ecopolitically warm
unconditionally democratic wealth.

In this time of urgent need to improve climate health,
rather than adding further pathological Yang LeftDominant
NorthWestern monotheistic aggressions,
Gaia Hypothesis evolution’s positive eumemic development i
invites healing through Yin-integrative resource flow,
reconnecting neuro/eco-therapeutic interdependent networks,
revolving our ego v eco
inside-anthro v outside-EarthTribe
deep multigenerational learning YangEgo humility
to more fully sustain
Yin’s eco-climate flow
tranquility.

Another approach,
also ending in whatever outside,
but not caste-under, “eco” means to you,
whether outside ego or home or Rome or religion or party
or even anthropocentric worship of capital-engorged purpose itself,
is to notice that anthro-dissociative history,
decontextualized from GaianEarth associative mystery,
is inside-Yang dominant

And Yin-RightBrain feels only through dialects of relationship.
The search for Yang/Yin balance is, in this sense,
a search for ecopolitical domestic Left/Right cobinary
eco-justice with neuro-peace flow harmony

Intergenerationally learned
and resonantly sustained
by the daily non-event miracles
of nonhistory’s matriotically integral evolutions
of sustained revolving climate health
continuing to struggle with monocultural
AnthroSentient upper-caste
negative militaristic and competing capitalistic
Win v Lose
ethos-egoMind v eros-ecoBody
eumemic wrongs
of Anthropocene-Monotheistic Western
climatic caste-preserving pathology.

This does not say,
nor imply,
that gender dissociative climates
and racial dissociative climates
and weaponized aggression climates
and economic competition climates
are all the same caste difference.
Nor does this suggest one is more desecrating than the other.
That would be a YangDominant process of construct differentiation.

Needed now, for multicultural polypathic deep learning,
are Yintegrity’s climate-transforming solidarities
regeneratively guiding AnthroCulture/EarthClimate
inter-religiously interdependent health
away from upper v lower caste pathologies,
both neuro-psychological and geo-political.

Talking Mirrors

I’m a fairly active charter member
of Connecticut’s Medical Marijuana Program,
qualifying because I’m also one of the oldest HIV+ survivors in the U.S.

In fact,
not a single cell within my entire organism
would have been brought to you today
without the miracles of chemistry.

So blame Big Pharma,
you would not be the first
but perhaps could become the last.
You never know

We might recreate a cooperative bottom-line
engaging an international profiting me corporation
prepared to listen to prophetic angry people
as if we might become wealthier prescribers
for healthier climates
and cultures,
rather than mere consumers of contentious therapies.

Anyway, I’ve been sick off and on,
mostly on,
since the beginning of November
so I’ve also been pretty much stoned.

Unfortunately, or fortunately, I’m not sure
Probably both.
I’m also may be the oldest HIV+ Taoist survivor
and Taoists annoyingly need to pretend both sides of the mirror
might have worthwhile reflective potential.

WuWei quasi-fortunately,
rather than being too sick to get stoned,
I’m too stoned to imagine I’m sick.

Despite being retired,
and increasingly tired,
I don’t have time to be sick anyway,
in large part because my youngest of four kids
is a girl with wicked Oppositional Defiant disorders;
a label she defies

Not because she’s opposed to orderly labels,
but because she thinks she is perfectly ordered
when the rest of us losers get with her program.

She likes President Trump’s redness
and orangeness
and the whole MAGA culture
because he looks and sounds familiar enough to eat

Like red meat
grabby economic sinners
and prehensile political leaders
make the greatest bottom feeders.

For my young teenage daughter,
defiance is not a disorder,
it is a counter-cultural religion
(practiced at Make America White Again rallies
by evangelical nationalists)
into which she was baptized
by Fetal Alcohol full immersion
at a first trimester young embryonic age.

From her I have learned
there fortunately is no wimpy God,
but we do have one hell of a fire-breathing feminist Goddess
when we refuse to help her clean her nightmare
she calls her imperial White House,
but I call what’s left of her bedroom.

I tried to point out the inconsistency
of supporting a President
who refuses to help us clean our planet,
or even avoid mutually terrorizing civility destruction,
but this, apparently, is like the voice of a wimpy God
who does not,
and should not,
keep on defying the Fire Goddess
right might hand
of your life doesn’t matter
much.

This morning I was helping her get ready for school,
combing out her spiky hair.
She’s part dark porcupine.
We were standing in front of a large wood-framed, beveled mirror
that looks, perhaps only because I’m stoned,
like something out of Snow White,
associated with her StepMom,
the witchy queen with
Make Me Great Again
oppositional defiant disorder.

My daughter appreciates Snow White,
probably because she bossed around the seven dwarfs
in their own domestically peaceful home,
(a politically incorrect position
we might best not even think of trying to get away with)
and forced them to listen to her own crappy music preferences
at a full amphitheater range of ear-splitting volume.

Be that as it too loudly may,
I asked her if she ever talks to her mirror,
asking, Who is the fairest of them all?

Yes.

And, does the mirror talk back?

Yes. It says,
You need to fix them!

That’s strange.
My mirror has been saying the same thing
ever since the last
oppositionally defiant election.

As each maturing person

we can, together, co-redeem bodhisattva resilient pleasure

And,
as we all learn,
through ecologically healthy relationships
to fluidly focus and verbally communicate

business as anthro-privileged usual
continues severance
of economically dispassionate ethos
from politically dissociative eros

Unable to sustain democratically healthy relationships
and, oh yes,
resiliently wealthy EarthCare co-investments.

Nor will we know how to positively progress evolution
toward greater polyculturing complexity
unless our ethotic consciousness becomes more pleasure co-empathic

Nor will we polypathically feel how to
therapeutically flow toward greater regenerative depolarization
away from greater degenerative polarization
without comprehensively engaging our crown/root co-energetic balance
to become more integratively extended
ethos strong Sages
favoring eros flow Muses

Wu-wei dancing safe

As monotheistic anthropocentric individuals
we can less easily advocate a certain preference for complexity
or accommodate discontinuous opportunities
to help healthy and wealthy evolution along

As panentheistic interdependent
neurosystemic organisms
we can more fully occupy our regenerative

Transforming primal cobinary relations

Autocracy of Racist EcoPolitics

A caste preservationist favors separation
of White from NonWhite races.

Racists come in two varieties,
but both behaviorally support White privileged apartheid,
if not in what we liberally say
about capitalism’s free
and irresponsible speech marketing way
then in what we conservatively do

Too comfortable with neighbor-hooded
apartheid school
and patriarchal church
historical monoculturing segregation
practicing our habitual systemic trauma
combative politics of xenophobic mistrust.

Racists favor separation of positive light
v negative dark eumemic cultures
to perpetuate economic
and political partisan praxis
of ChosenPeople irreligious superiority

An ongoing “upper-self” v “lower-othered”
disempowering
unenlightened “winner” v “loser”
systemic trauma narrative.

There is no authentic empowerment side
of love
in this history of racist segregation
because we are all apartheid losers
when we prefer to fly apart

And stronger when we fly together
more polyculturally inter-religious
deep listening enriched

By our choices for inclusive community investment,
when and where we seek divine empowerment
of MotherNature’s cooperative multicultured purse?
rather than monotheistic business
as win v lose 0-sum
northern light v southern dark
anthro-privileged
bipolar
oppositionally defiant
caste-preserving usual

Competing to defend
birthright v birthwrong
long separated standing
in life’s lesser survivalist
v greater thrivalist
apartheid pecking order

A dull monoculturing defensive position
within Win v Lose strategic oppositions,
entirely inappropriate for organic Gaia’s
WinAnthroWealth/WinEarthHealth
polyculturing positive eumemic
pronoia

Healthier and wealthier
and wiser resonant opportunities together
than dissonantly risky
xenophobic paranoid behavior

Dear TrumPublican Christmas Klan

When you’re on top already,
proclaiming King of the US Mountain

When you hope
and have faith
and love that you are among God’s caste-up elite
in stark contrast to those sinners you would remain forever separated from,
then your separatist position
is also a defense-against-change position
to maintain
or increase
your upper-caste supremacy.

Only if you were a klan of black feminist lesbians
and transgender benders,
and dark-skinned magnificently chiseled queers,
who don’t want anything to do with you either,
can you offer an authentic mission statement favoring increased separation
without also taking a position
of wanting to sustain
and potentially strengthen
lower-caste absence of supremacist over-lording intent.

Assuming you are still evangelical protesting white males
under those closeted Chosen People MAGA masks,
I believe you are mistaken in believing you only advocate
continuing current “natural” and “spiritual” separation
between light-caste v dark-caste races
while falsely claiming
you are not also committed to preserving your upper-caste
“divinely appointed” economic and political privileges

And, conservatively speaking
from your monotheistic StraightWhiteGod worldview,
reversing past traumatic changes
against what any polytheist
pantheist
indigenously wise panentheist
and/or animist
exercising constitutional religious rights
to freedom’s compassionate speech

Recognizing and celebrating
man- and woman-fest PolyCultural Creator destiny
inevitably progressing
toward multicultural integrity,
sacred mind-full democratic compassion,
and organically embodied
non-violent communication pleasures

Not MAGA accessible
without decreasing your upper-caste hubris
with the help of TrumPublican niceties
like making disenfranchised political
and disempowering economic apartheid
great again.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news,
Chosen People privilege is antithetically against
Jesus’s Prince of Peace
intentionally born in a lower-caste manger
Good News.

On the other hand,
perhaps if you could recruit more broadly,
diversify your Make America MonoTheistic Again
Klandestine assets
to include black feminist lesbians,
and invite what you need to learn from transgender benders,
and welcome divinely-endowed queers
to receive more economic and political grace
than our historically traumatic unfair share
of this healthy democracy’s goods

Then polycultural wealth could help your public image
in the racist-homophobic-misogynistic supremacist
trauma-informed
not-very-Christian BadNews Great Again
MAGA cognitive dissonance
unenlightened
dissociative pathology department

Anticipating a world class Joyful PeaceMaking Christmas.
