Dancing Psalms

Dancing our epic song
inside images

ritual motions
rhythmic changes
disembodied

Can become dissonantly self-predative
depressing
exhausting
compressing

Claustrophobic mean remains
of darkly disabling
demonic Othering;
nothing left
for win/win choice,
wellbeing voice.

Dancing our song
dividing MeWe healthy humanity
in unhealthy ways

Sometimes therapeutically remediated
by better

sacred listening,
for healing humane justice
in divinely green peace
forest Cathedrals,
desert sand drifting Paradise,
oceanic blue Heavens,
mountainous purple sunset Passions,
silent flowing rivers
of transparent Power
chasing
following vulnerable
wounding Light

Cooperatively active
inside/outside copassion
recklessly curious love
restoring EarthPeace
one dance at a time

For cooperatively revolutionary
mediations
resonantly YangSun sung
YintegralEarth danced

In and Out
Self and Other
therapeutically empathic
sacred muses
dancing our co-arising Psalms.

Sublime Oppressions

When “oppressive”
becomes synonymous with “government”
and when “government”
becomes synonymous with “bureaucracy”

Then “oppressive government bureaucracy”
sounds like a redundant bad-boy platitude,
ungrateful anthro-
elitist attitude,
absence of relationships
for which I might feel
non-egged on
and non-eggheaded
regular
everyday
humane/divine
peace mindfull
gratitude.

While “enlightened government bureaucracy”
now sounds like a sarcastic oxymoron
spreading virally
from Red
to Blue
to wondering about Green

Cooperatives–
more empowering?
kinda ecofeminist,
instead of
patrilinearly
win v lose
predative capital-headed
commodifications
judgments
financial evaluations,
deductive causes
v. inductive affectiveness,

Which brings us back to RedMeat
reactionary
RightWing
White Nationalistic Supreme MonoTheistic
rumored sanctuaries from geoclimatically catostrophic absence of health
or wealth
or bipartisan wisdom

And bicameral dialectical win/win
strategically cooperative EarthJustice
empowerment EarthPeace
through ReGenerative EarthDesign

Which seems to inconveniently
include some traumatically epic purpose
for heavy-handed
RightWing
StraightWhite Privileged
Patriarchal-Capitalist
MonoCulturally Predative,
Cancel PolyPhonically Healthy
EcoWomanist Wealthy Multiculturalists

Are winning inner/inter-peace battles
weighed conscientiously
against our own grandchildren’s universal sacred health
and unitarian safe
compassionately resonant wealth

Of wellness sung
and danced
muse amusing
integral experience

Within compassionately indigenous,
wise systemic
co-governance
win/winningly ubiquitous

Ever since
SunMuse wealth
has radiantly co-governed
with EarthMusic
eco-humming
co-governing
health wealthy
resonantly resilient
green cooperative systems
sacred/secular
theo/eco-logical,

Where every mind/body organism,
sainted/sinner organization
spiritually/natured society
Yintegrally-Yanged co-passion
win-wins
through cooperative co-investments
in health care
power giving
and light receiving

A tradition much older
than when “oppressive”
becomes dissociated from “healthy democratic governments”
when inner/inter “trust co-government”
becomes bicamerally reunited with
“nonviolent healthcare systems.”

Late Fall

Outside views
remind me
Earth already represents
early winter
in my sacred EarthTale

Of internal climate healthy
redevelopment
heart mediated

Silent

Before best health days

seething still and silent
to not out loud envy

Time to “Man Up”
to get through my depressed

To winter through

Of late Fall

in my chronic LeftBrain dominant

My monotheistic sublime

of all unspoken monoculturing passion narratives
expecting,
anxiously anticipating

A late Fall god-given
self-righteous entitlement
defensive about dubious undemocratic

Taking more than my four square share
of EarthTribe’s freezing ZeroSum
final regenerative inhale

full-harvest gratitude exhale

To co-passion grandchildren’s

Spiraling dynamically out

AnthroSacred

Balancing this compassioning
late Fall mountain moment
co-invested back toward inspiring
spirited spring

Solstice Solidarity

In the beginning
of individual first NoelNights
taking our great climatic breath,

All each of us possesses,
and is possessed by,
is sacred EarthMother

Humble shepherdess

of great rebirth
giving enlightenment.

We each represent

Wealth journey

ChristMassive Eve
invoking universal health care giving
predicting local uniting harvest
of resilient wellness wealth

As we cooperatively push our babies forward
in silent carriages of active hope
to resist a dispassion climate
apartheid climax,
deadly stillborn

Wherein all that remains
of future warm breath generations
are shadow moon
and fading starlight
coldly witnessing
no angels singing
on high
nor below
what was our living
breathing MotherEarth

Now, this day,
still seeking and finding here
first empowering
and last enlightening

Dark and final climaxing
sacred co-empathic
passion storied climate frights

Of first/last bright night’s
final warm music intent
to breathe healthy co-passioned
co-arising journey flight

Breathing in
then together out,

then back down

Western YangFull pride
and Eastern Yintegral Empty slide
dark
final restoring night
of Earth’s synergetic Solstice,
compassion’s resonant story

Greatest journey
patronage over-sold
yet never dark dopamining

Pandemonic Hope

“I believe in the sun
even when it is not shining”

I remember someone recently resaying
what has long lain unsaid
inside my paradoxical head,

When asked if I believe in God,
I don’t know what to say.

I might not believe in your God,
at least on my worst
pain-darkened day.

And,
I seem to believe in my own
only in those rare rain-free moments
healthy ego- and eco-gratifying

When I am having a climax heart
and head
song
and dance remembering
re-ligioning
reconnecting EarthMoment

Shared with at least one Other,
perhaps for our first through last time
in this
our day of sacred synergy

Sustaining
surrounding
celebrating a yellow morning
mellow sunrise
promising this wealthy day
without soggy rain

As we prepare to health harvest
warmly fragrant sun-dried hay
I quietly say

So, there is a God,
after all.

“And I believe in love
even when there’s no one there.
And I believe in God
even when he is silent.”

These two additional beliefs
feel like one Relief Belief
to my bicameral head choice
and heart voice.

For it has often been said
and felt
that God is love

Especially when
Matriotic HolySpirit of Love
doesn’t act like a Patriarchal Fool

And, by that,
I reference my own sociopathology
of privileged entitlement
monoculturally over-invested
in capitalist Straight
White
Earth Predations
Colonizations
Extractions
Rapaciousness

But,
my most courageous inscriptions
of whispering hope
often not felt enough
sacredly chosen silence
in spaces between
my LeftBrain dominant
distracting notes

Where my own AnthroSupremacism
falls vibrantly listening
to responsively hear
Elder MotherTrees
sigh
and breeze

Silently praying
for strong rooted
cooperative integrity

Within this organic Green Communion
forest of hands on
generating regenerous Hope.

Note:

Pandemonic Hope is part of a series of theological reflections offered to and from the All Souls Unitarian-Universalist Choir in New London, Connecticut. 

“Inscription of Hope” was composed for the Nebraska Choral Arts Society and Children’s Chorus by Z. Randall Stroope, in conversation with a Russian Folk Tune.  His lyrics are drawn from an inscription on cellar walls hiding Jews in Cologne, Germany, during World War II. Stroope’s own 1994 reflection on the significance of these words, in this Holocaust pandemonic context, “Hope was all they had to hold on to; hope was their only bridge to a brighter [nonviolently restoring justice] tomorrow.”

Eighth Grade English

Back in Eighth Graded Class
of StraightWhiteMale English privilege
I learned all healthy narratives
must have at least one
of these three tension intentions:

Like sacred mythic prayers
and fables invoking
poetry and soulful
gospel anthems

Of StraightWhite Man v AnthroOther

Or StraightWhite ManBody v EgoCentric Self

Or StraightWhite ManSpirit v Earth’s Sacred/Carnal Nature

I was disappointed
with the LeftHemisphere narrow-mindedness
of these three Either/Ors
which my RightHemisphere
could more deeply hear
as monocultural lack
of inter-trinitarian
Both HumanTrauma and DivineTherapy
in integrity’s polyculturally inclusive
compassionate Earth Communion.

I thought I had seen and heard
lack of heart resources
among AnthroSupremacist early philosophers
and scripture righter downers
instinctively suppressing liberally democratized
polycultural health-systemic
polypathic compassion communicating
polyphonic harmonic resounding
polyvagal neurosystems
most actively hoping health
among win/win economically enlightened
and politically empowered EarthWomanists.

I’m sure I still can feel touched gratitude
for more healthy democratic attitude
co-governing cooperative green co-investments
in EarthMother climate
and family healthcare,
public
and domestic,
global
and local nutritional wealth conservation,

Economically bright
and politically right
ecologically tight relationships
lead
and feed
theologically mighty cooperative reflections

Politically correct
replete with regenerative
healthy co-redemptive
win/win poyculturally meditative
mediation strategies seductive
among win/lose monocultural predatives,

Encouraging, perhaps, a cannabis sedative
and easing up on alcoholic dissociatives
drunk from win/lose evolutionary theories
of AnthroSupremacy Wins Earth’s wealthiest superlative
despite stumbling into humbling wounds
of multi-degenerational EcoCide

A more Left/Right Wing balanced

between peaceful intentions
and male militaristic
