Dancing While Singing

Dancing minds
free singing bodies

Dancing bodies
reserve singing minds.

Minds find faith in wealthy
blue-sky synergy
where bodies have experienced hope
for sacred EarthTribe’s
healthiest green integrity.

Whether we feel we must invest
in cooperative minds
invoking compassionate
sacred bodies

Or think we might best divest
of competitive degenerating bodies
provoking dispassionate minds

Is an unnatural “loser”
shaming invoice
leaving a still small crack
enlightening a healthier political voice
and neuro-sensexual choice
inviting wealthy spiritual rejoice

In wealthy dancing minds
liberating soulful singing bodies
conservatively enhancing
healthy singing minds.

Polite Mess

Politeness,
like kindness,
may not sell newspapers
or win the partisan debate

Civility,
unlike deviliciousness,
will not win the civil war
nor leverage the biggest tax rebate

But integrity
is the world wide web of nature
that composed the paper
and incubates
the peace we celebrate
when impolite love to hate
of systemic trauma gates
recede well past faded
therapeutic empathy,
becoming civilly sedate

Singing while dancing
in politely well-said company
not seen
or heard from
of late.

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.

Speaking From Felt Experience

Enjoying Earth’s promised land
of compassionate
multicultural communion,
we share a preference for deep
rich soil
and fertile green-blue
resonating surf

As our bodies adjust
to rocky and prickly
either me
or not me space

And our minds flow
back and forth
through gooey both “me”
and organic neurosensory “we”
peace searching times
of glad/bad memory,
healthy peak and unwealthy valley
remembering felt body trauma
and mindfully resilient therapies

Inhaling Earth’s past sacred unions
Exhaling into conjoined future
compassionate communion.

These reflections came to mind
this morning
as I recalled a recent clergy question:

“What did you FEEL
when you first read
this proposal for a change
in our corporate
orthodox
Universal Salvific
and Unitarian CoRedemptive
liberated feminist tradition.”

I remember listening for neuro-sensexually
enlightened language
for distinguishing core
empowered/disempowered Feelings
primally limited to:

Glad-anticipating win/win peak mind/body experiences
Bad-anxious about lose/lose dualdark valley experiences
Sad-depressed about my own win/lose long-term chances
Mad-about suppressed short-term survival
odds against overpowering PatriarchalGod’s
timeless dispassion.

My gladness trying to thrive
despite an unholy trinity
responding to trauma history
of multigenerational peak/valley surfing
change

Transitions
in glad health opportunities
reforming bad unease
sad disease
mad missing ease
invoking dissociative
neuro-sensexual despair
informing future opportunities
for compassionate repair.

Out of twenty
LeftBrain verbal dominant responses
to this spirited natural feelings question,
only two mentioned feelings
underlying
predicting positive
and negative
and ambivalent thoughts.

One said both glad about opportunity
for deep communal dialogue
and sad about lowly lay victims
speaking against too powerful and unenlightened
religious professional orchestrations

Us v them rhetoric
creating a polarizing culture
of win/lose
0-sum
closed-off
competitive
destabilizing trauma

Lack of EarthPeace
and Restorative Justice
in the deep rich soil
and fertile green-blue surf
of nature-spirited communion
opportunities for peak dialogical experiences
of LeftMind/RightBody
enlightened/empowering
FatherSun/MotherEarth co-passionate
revival.

Another wise woman elder responded
with “confused”
which encompasses,
without resonantly resolving,
all of Glad and Bad
Sad and Mad
chaotic flowing mind
feeling toxically disembodied
from sacred healing peace
restoring EarthTribe Justice
co-passionate mission statements
EarthTribe healing vocations.

What no one said
was “compassion”
for the romantic-comedy of peak experienced Glad
and the traumatic-tragedy of dark valley experienced
Bad’s
short-term Mad
and long-term chronic Sad
Lose/Lose absence
of healthy
enlightened
messianic minds

Surfing through empowered
co-redemptive neurosensory
bodhisattva bodies
of spiritual/natural
mental/physical
co-passionate communicators

Win/win naturally resilient
co-mediating spiritual practicers
rooted in peak experiences
of comprehensive synergetic feelings
more resiliently Glad
than dispassionately Bad

Speaking our restorative justice
free and co-responsive win/win
searching truths
to patriarchal/capitalist
win/lose systemic trauma.

Let My People Shine

At sixteen
People’s Bible Church
sent me from rural Michigan farm lands
to Moody Bible Institute
in siren-screaming Chicago

Church fathers assumed,
despite curious evidence to the contrary,
that I was a StraightWhiteMale
born-again
wanna be choir director

Because I could sing with gospel appeal
and dance with evangelical zeal.

It was in Chicago
I learned some LeftBrain orthodoxy
of RightBrain orthopraxis
I had always felt,
from the Muse within.

This mind/body orthopraxis of singing
peak and valley embodied feelings
as opposed to merely memorizing lyrics
and vocal intervals
and rhythms
and sacred silent rests
in Earth’s indigenous Wisdom

Would sometimes swell up and out
from the souls of my Yang conducting feet

Music beginning with primordial
root chakra Yintegrity
positively impressing our full
sacred neurosystemic embodied
Muse

Heading up and down
and all around my heart chakra
mind/body double-binding
co-arising
in-between nonboundary
where transcendent monotheistic gospel
orchestrating, from above
cherishes EarthMother’s immanent empowerment,
mediating, from within
moving soulful choices
inviting good news Yang voices.

Those instructors who were planning
to more comfortably conduct
with their dominant right wing
orthodox uninspired messaging bodies
did not actively encourage us
to move below our stagnant necks

On the other hand
we had one woman of color
who invited each morning
conducting from the souls of our feet
with sufficient passion
to raise FatherSun’s
octaves of co-enlightenment.

She conducted warm-ups
considerably more athletic
than eremetic

Stretching compassion’s inside muscles
primal joint relationships
bicameral minds and lungs and hearts
while reaching
teaching
preaching outside ancient light/power
Musing memories
of dance
and prance
and, occasionally, communal trance.

Sadly,
merely sixteen,
I returned to conservative
rural homophobic xenophobic patriarchal anthro-privileged
RightWing dominant
People’s MonoTheistic Bible Church
more comfortable making metronomic
1-2-3-4
points like the 4/4
fractal sign
of a triumphantly crowning cross

While singing,
from my own entitled head-voice
repeating orthodox melodies
from disembodied traditional memories

At my peak experience best,
from my core heart chakra diaphragm
breathing in dogmatic history’s choices
while expiring more sacred
gay and trans-inspiring
transporting
orthopraxis
of ancient healthy sung passions
and wealthy moving beauty
written across every bipartisan resonant heart

Good news singing
and LeftBrain orchestrating
but not really great shoes moving
and RightBrain mediating
cooperative engagement in communal resonance
and community full-bodied
root-systemic resilience

Strong enough to carry
through six days
of secular ecocidal
lack of sacred Yang/Yintegral orthopraxis
transcending mere orthodox
religiously repeated narratives

To more fully embrace
wellness-souled
song and dance
gospel-passioned praxis
orchestrating FatherSun’s Yang dusk
while mediating MotherEarth’s Yintegral
empowering redawn
of indigenous nondualistic
nonviolent
nonverbal wisdom

Wellbeing mindful sung
and
Wellness rooted dance
up and out
from the souls of our feet
on EarthMother’s natural beat.

Valentine’s Day Resilience

Gratitude
for grace already received
is a robust measure of generosity.

Compassion scans for generosity’s fullness
felt within
as incarnated without

As dispassion predicts greed’s anxious emptiness.

Giving is physical and/or verbal
while generosity is mental and nonverbal.

Giving,
like loving,
hoping for a return of grace
within your lifetime’s future,
does not share
or stretch
your gift of generosity.

Giving,
hoping to receive in equal measure,
plus interest,
plus loyalty,
plus admiration for our generosity,
is an investment
which counts the cost
of risking loss

Not necessarily a failure of gratitude,
or love,
for oneself
as for Other,
and also
not an outward compassionate act
of inward
mind-nourishing generosity.

Migrating Culture Change

Perhaps immigration is our big US national anxiety
because we don’t know how to unilaterally abort
cancerous growth of ecocide.

Too much to even think about
at a merely nationalistic level
of semi-consciousness.

Earth is our shared sacred home
which has begun feeling like a dried out
grass and forest burning
tornado churning
housefire.

No Trespassing signs
of defensive desire
and cutting-edge lethal spirals
of kill and maim designer wire
assert our RightWing
LeftBrain patriarchal predative dominance,
anthro-privileged prominence

While health
and prosperous wealth
and indigenous community farm wisdom
all intend to restore EarthTribal
therapeutic peaceful justice,
nonviolent green communion
for cooperatively co-invested
compassion

Left/Right bipartisan
Universally salvific enlightenment
through co-redemptive
Unitarian empowerment.

Naturally acclimating spiritual cultures
grow anxiously attuned
to global warming
red-hot rabid pathologies

Spiritually co-empathic minds
are systemically seized
by trauma
by EarthMatricide
by rapacious plunder
by extractive predation

Rather than sacred
cooperative
synergetically co-invested
EarthTraveler identity.

If holistic love brings peak experience
memories
Then whole systemic life
is a migrating journey
away from chronic win/lose emigrating risks
and toward emerging
win/win immigrating opportunities.

Climate changing rabidity
includes RightYang v LeftYin hysteria,
patriarchal partisan polarity
dismissing matriarchal wombed
holy holonic wholesome holes.

Migration marchers
singing Never Again”
to weaponized violence
against both young
and old sojourner species

Often judgmentally justified
by divinely-scripted
manifest destiny
written by a monotheistic right hand
drawing a punishing border
in cosmic sand
against our holy uniting spirit
of co-migrating
mind and body compassion

Global peace
paradise found
in restoring EarthJustice health,
environmental wealth

Indigenous nondualistic positive wisdom
universally experienced
peak mind/body
yin/yang

-(-0) = +1
Polynomial co-binary
balancing bicameral
bipartisan
bilateral moving
shifting
grooving neurosystemic conclusions

Concerns that anthro-migrating health
is root 0-soul reliant
on Earth-crowning
not drowning
wealth

Both Left and Right
West and East hemisphere co-passions
anticipate binomial 1/0 adventures
in cooperatively migrating intelligence

Curious about why
immigration is our big First WorldView
national anxiety.

Wondering
about wandering
in competitive +1 v -0-thering
smothering defenses

Not able to nationalistically abort
rabidly cancerous migrations
of anthro-privileged
desecrating ecocide.

MusEcology of Peace

I would like to see
and hear
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
and wealthy
relationship.

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

Deliberating life
delivering desegregating communities,
purple families,
non-violent muse communications
to sing
our cooperative Truth
and dance
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.

My Renegade Sunday School Teacher

Aunt Mary was a small and wiry mother
of six;
four by birth
and two by informal adoption.

She sang in a small querulous voice
yet spoke boldly
filled with loving EarthMother
indigenous wisdom choices.

Aunt Mary was a serenely quiet mentor
and suspiciously happy
Sunday School teacher
in our stern Christian evangelical Bible Church
where divine Revelation
ended with the last apocalyptic
King James chapter.

Closed “Father Has Spoken” inspiration
was not quite so All or Nothing clear
from our Teacher’s polycultural gardener
and permacultural farmer perspective,
with her animal husbandry perceptions
offering a more inclusive Holy Spirit articulating view

Of personal
and communal peak therapeutic experience,
naturally revealing,
spiritually fulfilling
universal salvation
seeking unitarian redemption
finding ever more expansive
universal EarthTribal sensations.

Aunt Mary led our high school class
theological reflections
always in her quiet
compassionate way

A question and respond style
she may have learned from reading Gospel Jesus

The outdoor itinerant Teacher
responding to both hostile
and admiring fan questions

Speaking in Beatitudes,
spoken word Psalms
Proverbs,
impromptu Sermons on Mountains.

“What did Jesus mean
when he said Abba is love?”
I might have asked,
hoping to catch her explaining herself away
from the Patriarchal personal knowledge
our straight
white
good-news privileged preacher
shared from his bully pulpit
about what demonic
not straight
not white
not strong warrior behaviors
God hates.

“Abba is ComPassion”
invites us to become liberal
only in love”
she responds.

This is the reverse side of becoming more conservative
about risky behaviors
and negative attitudes
and demonic platitudes
steeped in hate
anger
fear
greed
narcissism
anthro-supremacism,
ignorance,
traumatic abuse,
and chronic emotional neglect
remaking god into our own dog-
matic worst
bad excuse for a good-news day
degenerative imagination.

“The devil made me do it”
in jest
curiously reminds me of
“Jehovah demands I hate it”
excommunicating those who sin
against my limited
and exclusively safe
peak resonant experiences.

Judgmental
“Violence is mine”
loudly speaks StraightWhitePrivilegedMale
way back in the weaponized Old Testament.

This love we choose
to renew each morning
we often think of as compassion
and Mom-inspired peace
and blissful nurturing light

In contrast to the traumatic night
of a darkened daddy soul

Yet love of God’s creation,
creativity,
music,
musicality,
natural Truth
and supernatural Integrity
of wholesome holonic Spirit,
is also openly
and relentlessly curious

About the depths of Earth’s empowering summer soils
and disempowering winter snow,
About resonant healing
yet also dissonant harming,
About both dawn’s light
and dusk’s revolving night.

Embrace liberal love
of our co-arising bicameral
dipolar appositional`Spirits

And conserve deep disregard
for competing bipolar
oppositional Souls

More clear about which sheep
we must be against
than why God created all sheep
for us to adore

Who define alien Others
by whom and what we are commanded
and reprimanded to hate

Don’t even try to understand
and don’t slow-grow the courage
to appreciate

To become more resiliently curious about
how
and why They/We can
and do love each Other
in some mysterious non-Othering way
beyond LeftBrain dominant understanding.

Liberally love
reform
refine
refinish your human healthy Self
and sacred natural Others
by uniting with whom
and what we love
and faithfully hope to stand.

Explore radically profound courage
to become more deeply
organically
integrally
inter-religiously curious about
how to more resiliently choose

Each mindful day
each inclusive hour
each thoughtful moment
within each healthy relationship,
each communion,
each love song
of liberating compassion

Thereby worrying less about
conserving slow-burning
political dispassions.
