Gratitude with Attitude

Gratitude
A co-empathic sense of trust,
awe,
appreciation of echo-resonant
deep-listening resolving life.

Gratitude
Autumnal enthymematic taproot of spring-hope,
just as summer’s nutritional maturation
unfolds Origin of fertile decompositional mindfulness.

Gratitude
Why Thich Nhat Hanh thinks it important to smile
nutritiously.
Why Positive Deviance works.
Why Positive Psychology works and plays truths with beauty.
Why regenerative political discernment leads
healthier cooperative outcomes
polyculturally maturing
by monoculturally self-governing balancing networks
landscapes.

Mutual Gratitude
diastolically opens toward agapic/erotic love,
provokes lasting happiness and contentment
while sustained in a culture too often neglecting
more cooperatively embraced and active entertainments.
Necessary and sufficient,
requited,
for fulfilling mindful AS healthy sustainable physical life.

Gratitude
Respect for Earth’s grace,
and sustained Mutual Commons Place
leads through hope and toward summer’s full faith,
toward fall’s harvest of love and bliss;
where We Are One,
and prepare Winter’s cycle of hibernating Oneness
in Yin’s recessive advent,
facing toward Spring’s new birth.

When our intent chooses gratitude
practice becomes centered in mindfulness,
ecoconsciousness.

When intent is co-mindful reiterative modeling,
co-mentoring,
our mutually regenerative practice
loves life as grateful love ourselves,
Zero-sum economizes grace.

Becoming grace
requires balancing ecology of Nutritional Yang DeductiveCausaLaws
with Love’s Yin InductiveAffectiveGrace.
These nondual two are inextricably dipolar linked
as are noticing hope with understanding faith,
yang and yin,
leading, balancing together
toward political/economic health assurance comprehension.

Yin’s Grace whispers of hope for a meeting of minds.
To build Yang’s value,
resonance,
develop mindfulness,
sing and dance
pray and speak our story,
our history of nutritional laws of nature
with love’s grace of spirit,
with gratitude for all those whose voices ring
reverberate
in our ears and minds as bodies.

Gratitude
for autumn’s forest falling seed,
inoculating our soils with hope
to be held,
secure,
through winter’s politically competitive economy of cold discontent,
decomposition.

Winter brings purgative Advent of dormant hope
without current incarnation of embryonic faith,
which returns to 4-seasoned Earth each reborn Spring
of daily life.

This same gratitude enthymematic seed-root of Positive Deviance,
Appreciative Inquiry,
Basic Attendance,
CoEmpathic Political Trust
between pilgrims traveling Earth’s empathic consciousness
of life and death revolutions,
regenerating compost piles of truth as beauty memories.

Gratitude
A graced gestalt,
informed contrast with a nutritional law
of insufficient absorption
into ego-proprietor value-based gestalt,
either-or,
Win-Lose,
healthy-toxic affect.

Mindfulness
balances a bicameral cooperative grace thriving economy
with our midway TrimTab value
optimizing political survival economy.
This karma/grace gestalt
comprehends OurCommons
as EarthHome Network
to which we equally belong responsibly authoritative
more profoundly,
naturally,
truthfully,
realistically,
sustainably,
normatively,
ethically
than understanding this Commons
of Earth-Air-Water-Firey flames of information
as property we own,
instruct,
dominate,
enslave,
commodify,
and even lecture with great confusion sometimes.

We do no good presenting our best political-economic lectures
while standing empty-handed in our favorite garden
or forest
or mountain or sea or lake
or home;
far better still to listen to these speak their grace
across grateful ears and eyes and nose and mouth,
to know where we might best begin with bicameral hands
and bipedal vocational feet.

Deep Ecology of Gratitude
growth in depth of regenesis,
an economy of nutritional materialism
co-mentoring bodies of graceful co-ownership
through value transfers with other enculturations present,
past and future sentient beings
at their cooperative GiveGraceForward expansive expense,
co-invested interdependent multigenerational
benign parasites
disguised as nakedly benign Hosts.

To comprehend this EarthCommons
calls to listen,
with gratitude,
and thereby increase in mindfulness of abundant comprehensive potential,
graceful loving SpiritYin
with nutritional YangNature’s Laws and Primal Principles
of eco-balancing reciprocity.

Messiah Wilderness

How do we rebaptize this our shared glad day,
raising up our wellness drenched
with non-elite christ mindbody?

Surely Matthew the Fox would know,
and other postmillennial gospel singers,
swingers of new cooperative economic communication fortunes
found without disciplined searching
among Earth’s daily revolving wild baptisms,
co-gravitating reborn seas of regenerately fishing men
now become bicameral hunters and co-equal gatherers
of Beloved East-West Community.

Wisdom scriptures swell through every harmonic creed
each deed spoken across culture’s regenerations,
singing multicolored psalms of Paradise
rebirth again through death
of stale humans only need apply
to and for heaven’s radically ridiculously open gate
of ecojustice sung by crickets
feeding songbirds
flying on and on back toward sunrise
surfing Earth’s original baptism
dunking sun’s fertile rays of godlight.

Christ incarnate presence
without cultural elitism
or even anthrocentrism;
christ as light by which all have come
from progenitor Elders,
by which all return,
no creature comes through Father Time
on Virgin Mother Earth
but through and with each co-messianic Other.

Christ pilgrims loved as nature mystics
learning to plant and harvest souls, Earth’s seeds
of holy holonic consiliance,
synergy,
integrative agape I AM
this Earth WE ARE,
fathers and mothers of rich cultural child traditions
evolving revolving time as light
remade in humane image,
creation re-imaging
imagined
performed
produced
regenerating time’s revolving warm nutritious light.

Politics,
like economics, of religion
is either cooperative or tyrannical,
Earth-centric or fundamental ego-centric hubris
rooted in polypathic trust
and fear of monoculturally elite dinosaurs
of vacuous spiritual paths toward further competitions.

Political bodies of peace
build economic outcomes
of Earth’s CoMessianic Right to ReGenerative Justice.

Tidal Rivers of Identity

This place
New England space
meets inside without
building forest skill character
wild native nakedness merged with puritan souls
enslaved by dark-skinning self-immolating magic
aboriginal roots of satiating suffered bliss,
Yankee hearts with naive freedoms
to imagine golden ages
accessible to each and all
huddling in fertile Enlightenment passion pastures
within nature’s coredemptive surf-songed light.

Silent Lurkers

Silent watchers,

lurkers,

ruminating parents,

students,

scientists are often leaders at listening selectively,

looking for resonance,

yet not ignoring dissonant noise double-boundaries,

from where and when they first emerged,

to where and when they might become redeemed,

wherein might lie a poignant replicable deep-learning moment,

life is what unfolds

for our co-redemption.

In Defense of Ugly

I have nothing against the Cinderellas
of successful society.
Cinderella finds her opportunity for freedom
for love, hopefully,
goes for it,
and it works out for her
and all the Prince Charmings,
wherever they are hiding from my life.
Anyway, all good news
as far as this story goes.

But,
the plight of Ugly StepSisters and Brothers
deserves more compassionate empathy.

True,
they borrow too heavily from Evil StepMother’s playbook,
her monocultural empty-empire building manual
“How to compete for love and wealth
without sufficient loving health”

Still,
StepMom didn’t write this manual alone.
This scripture is as old as lack of requited love itself.

And,
what are the karmic outcomes for these Sisters,
lacking grace
to invite Cinderellas to share their space?
A day,
an hour,
a minute,
a moment devoid of choosing co-empathic possibility,
humor facing absurd lust for power
blind hope to control life
at least enough to absorb awareness of loss
and inevitable dying alone,
results in living too much alone
produces absence of full living-loving,
consumes embryonic integrity of regenerate life,
eats and addicts acids of empire-defensive despair
until nutrients of isolation mature
into degenerately self-disserving Evil StepSpinsters,
monsters spinning tragic runaway addictions
breeding chaotic anger,
fear of our darkness, our mortality terror,
our lack and absence and loss,
hating our own unredeeming suffering.

Ugly StepSisters are stuck
in silos of their own discontent
echoing Evil StepMother’s voice
foolishly empirically demanding satisfaction
with a closed fist
when grace is hers and his to choose
by merely opening her heart
to radically compassionate empathy.

December Rain

It was the middle of an unusually warm Connecticut December
darkly drizzly deep afternoon.

Drizzly wait,
not long before her hungry needy kids returned from school,
she propped herself against their covered back porch wall,
knees up,
peering out
listening to wonder how her life was the same,
and different,
compared to this river flowing surely and widely
but silently south behind their backyard,
while the river of cars in front
shuttled up and down the state highway’s over-fueled Advent traffic,
punctuated with violent horn blasts,
or perhaps warmly intended “Hello”s, “I’m passing by….”

Passing.
Water toward the south Sound,
carbon-eaters to her back,
across the front yard Advent
of early evening’s commercial family business,
industry,
institutions for competing commodification
flowing stealthily and syncopatedly impatient toward,
and then by-passing away.

By-passing,
messiah’s mass faltering
to sing in her faithful
but worn thin heart and air,
hoping her river loved co-redemptive Sounding ocean
even more than busy motors
surging through more urgent toxic time
invested to completely commodify
this Birthing Wonder’s self-purgative sacred flow
into co-therapeutic nature.

Commodifying home and families
into consumer markets
flowing down her river of mid-December’s discontent
with waiting.

Discontent,
gloaming river fog
spread miraculously radiant by one uninvited yellow street light,
waiting for her family’s bus
to deliver this December night’s transforming birth.

Farewell to a Sacred Place

Love defines co-messianic grace
filling each and all sacred place,
temporal space
flowing out to reach this autumn sky
only possible after flowing in
from lovely sky blue canopy,
worshiped with whispered waves
by calico trees
glad-rooted within this ledge of Cider Hill,
with me
breathing such majesty as we,
so much more ecstatically opulent
and more profoundly significant
through adoration of this God-We,
breathing in our integrative unity
to breathe out our universal sanctity,
karmic grace
this place
a part of me
as I am so proud to be so small
within such eternal majesty of We
are Cider Hill.

RNA develops polynomial and polypathic
polymorphic language
feeding our natural-cultural mythic logos
string of Wisdom Literature.

Permaculture Design is but our Epilogos
of an eternally polycultural (0)Mega Point
unveiling symbiotic revolutionary Gospel.

I regret what we will not have together
in this life
but perhaps this wondrous value,
what we have been together
evolves all the more slow-growth positively networked riches
for this mortal absence,
a sweet memory silo space
to visit without racing pace.

My loss and your loss at this time
equals our positive gain for all eternity
to remember this
To-gather.

Our gods grow co-redemptive co-passionate health
medicine
therapy
love
positive relationship.

We are co-redemptively omnipotent
as co-passionately omniscient
in ecstatically nondual diastasis,
love as majestic heart-balancing timeless beauty.

Cider Hill
where words fill still.

Zero Owls with Fractal Falcons

Like wise bicameral nighted owls
we evolve co-challenges with unfolding flight-strong falcons.

Now we are co-arising
to fly above and through past dominating pain,
to fly below reductive reverse future’s radiant rain,
square-rooted beyond prime function
of Positive spinning double-negative binary bond,
fusing what was bi-fissioned double-dark gravity,
re-naturing global EarthTribew’s breathless spirituaity
with comprehensive co-arising/contracting ecoconsciousness,
permaculturally programmed
D/RNA polyculturally processing
EarthGoddess shamanic/organic life/love’s full-health system
of wealthy wisdom.

Double night-bound owls,
gracefull friendly challengers
fighting with falcons,
but not against,
for both-and,
not either-or,
predicted to live interdependently forever
within co-passioned redeeming flight
through mutually fertile wisdom,
Yang-trenscending dual-dark’s light freedom,
nesting Trees of Regenerating Life, with Death,
Beloved ReGenesis Root System.

Might this Omega Point of flighted bicameral consciousness
breathe in and out
Here and Now
Yang convex-eco echoing
within eternally concaving
doubly-transparent binding
timelessly reverberating Yin with Yin,
like Win with Win Organic Permaculturing Game Theory?

Likewise bicameral knighted owls with falcons,
we eco-evolve unfolding light’s flight-genesis.

Struggling Love

I know
you know
you stole our property,
our mutual possession,
our sense of co-ownership,
of belonging together
to grow our health forever.

I know
you took it for your sole ungrateful possession,
to use for your co-dependent purposes,
not a subject for open communication,
further evolution of whom we were becoming
together.

You know
I know
you stole our mutually co-arising trust
in cooperative objectives and views and color-filled perceptions,
you removed our room for cooperative gratitude,
replaced with anger and fear of future isolation,
divorce.

We both know
with deeply resonant intuitive integrity,
this critical event in our relationship cannot redeem,
re-direct,
re-connect,
our co-arising healthy trajectory
without mutually acknowledging
our sense of excommunicating loss and suffering
to have stolen
and to have been thereby co-laterally severed
from co-expansive gratitude,
replaced by co-condensing anger burning entropy,
absence of healthy wealth
through love’s reiterating Commons of communication.

We both know
If I am generous toward you,
if I “gift it forward” in your direction,
and you feel gratitude in response,
and express that gratitude through your deeds
and words
then you redeem and co-arise further generosity of love;
While not feeling and/or not expressing gratitude
in non-response
absorbs and dampens and depresses love
into our co-dependent toxicity of habit
where new creative loving life once grew.

We both are sane
as love will grow in our time
and organically chosen,
integratively intended, places,
relationships,
transactions.

We both are crazed
as other competing loves
still hunt and gather to fill in our gaps
and fracturing losses.

We all trust
our cosmological economy of synergy
evolves cooperatively reiterating gratitude,
human naturally reflected in love’s economy
co-arising generosity.

We mistrust
unilateral love, like lust,
so discontenting,
raises encrusted mountains of anger
deep flowing lava rivers of fear.

We respond
with trust and respect and care,
with practice and intent of generosity
until we no longer understand response as gratitude,
until chronic patterns feel empty of generosity returned,
redeemed,
replaced with judgment or apathy
too often swelling into anger and fear,
hunting and gathering and stealing
standing in for trust and respect and care.

I react
unwilling to continue this generous intent
because you steal my trust in our future
as co-arising health.

Struggling but still vigorously healthy love
evolves and sustains co-arising generosity
and mutually reiterative gratitude,
which would be no exception to our daily norm,
our default expectation of nature’s rich abundance,
if not for our mutual lack of gratitude,
iconically captured in Win-Lose economics
and anti-evolutionary cultural assumptions.

Love evolves
mutual economic generosity
as synergy revolves co-arising ecological paradigms,
systems and species,
cooperativity creation,
or love falls unrequited,
unredeemed,
stolen and absorbed into competitive mutual immunity,
heading toward entropically co-condensing selves,
cells of apathy and anger,
cancerous hurt and swollen suffering.

Love is risk
which often pays generous returns,
opportunities to invest further in healthy directions,
in relationships of evolving wealth.

We are free
to choose to stop loving
in response to suffering and ignorance and apathy,
anger and fear and hatred,
aimed at us by those we have invited into our trust;
free to stop responding to loss as mutual theft
with further generosity defusing integrity,
honesty,
because we feel too exhausted to survive
feeding toxic co-dependency
where we would nurture healthy co-redemption
of mutual investment in trust, caring,
this grace of cooperatively co-arising generosity.

I do not know
your quantities and qualities of need
for nurturing your healthy life.
If I have not offered generously
in response to your needs and wants and hopes,
don’t steal from me what was ours to mutually benefit
and then grow angry and fearful of how I may respond;
extend your generosity with me
just enough to help me understand
what you want
that I might have to give with gratitude.

Love is like a mountain,
majestic and beautiful to contemplate,
difficult to climb to the apex,
and harder still to survive there
to accomplish long-term healthy outcomes,
especially through cold winter nights.

Love presents life’s high stakes,
high risks for some nightmares,
high opportunities for some Great Day dreams.

Perfect Love

Perfect love is perfection,
it is rare,
if such love exists at all
it must thrive beyond boundaries of my own experience
either receiving,
or giving.

Could this perfection of synergetic harmony and confluence
we have grown to love as love itself
become discovered in and through another
by anyone other than a person,
a being,
mature and healthy with perfect love?

If love is equivalent to synergy,
as Bucky frequently tipped his ruddered pointer,
then love’s perfection must be nondually comprehended
exclusively in this present moment.
Love remembered can fuel faith
to hope for greater love,
a better grade or quality of synergetic life fuel,
a more confluently harmonic love
for future Beloved Communal Time.

Perfect love co-redeems our inclusively co-operative vocation.
No one of us can experience and flawlessly sustain perfect love
until each being we meet
each day and night we greet,
each minute,
each co-arising event
can be nondually known,
identified,
understood,
comprehended as our perfected ground of live
as love’s co-present evolving meaning,
deductively exclusive of no “other” entity.

We are all in this cooperative love,
this Win-Win Vocational Game,
together.
No one crosses the finish line forever
until we all cross our threshold into cosmological love of ever.
No one can optimally
ultimately
quintessentially “placehold” Zero-identity,
occupy
embody
incarnate co-redeemer perfect love
until this permacultural economic ecology
of co-arising synergy
as cosmological dual-dark Tao balance
resolves globally encultured;
reinserting human rights and justice
within their rightful meadow of nature’s ecological balance
of Yang’s power of mattered Order,
with Yin’s flow of energetic
bionic
ionic Choice of Eco- over Ego-centric,
yet nondually, balanced consciousness;
the end of our Left-brain domination
and self-condemnation to ignorance
of our bicamerally cooperative
DNA/RNA nature’s full-evolving abundance.

Then,
in that Great Transition Day,
now,
within each day,
this perfection of love,
including our perceptions of each Other
as love’s potential incarnate,
will become easier,
less dissonant,
less depressing to contemplate
and know its absence;
human self-hatred’s vast potential for nihilism,
for Win-Lose deductive-dominant entropy,
while Earth’s children sink to their knees
because their elders continued to steal sustainable health from them,
continued to resist our Emperor’s nakedness,
absence of dignity and respect outside embracing self-governance
as Earth’s advocate,
holonic representative,
mutual mentor,
co-arising messiahs and Boddhisatvas.

We are each naked emperors
within our beloved communal Earth Tribe,
our cooperatively natured selves.
Incarnation is not independent ownership of form,
devoid of co-regenerational mentorship of function.

Laotse asks,
Loss of ego identity or possession of goods,
including one’s own interior nutritional plant-body,
which is the greater evil?

Loss of a dualistic,
independently competitive
heroic ego-self,
including imperfections of ignoring our co-redemptive
prime relational ecology
and eco-norms for transactions,
actions,
praxis,
prehension,
relationships,
mutually subsidiary interdependence of ownership
of inclusive health and well-being,
including that dream of redeeming others
from their sins and ignorance,
for those possessions are mine as well,
to share and mentor this permacultural ground
of synergetic love
in each moment
of integrative consciousness.

If money is our eco-social icon
for measuring life’s value and power,
then our shared currency of nutritional health
and beloved well-being
is the prime root 0-soul and sum cooperative Core,
+Vector-Polynomial/(-,-)Dual-Dark Vortex NotNotPolynomial,
for optimizing comprehensive value consciousness.
From this perfectly balancing ground of nondual becoming
we have learned throughout all of Time
to mutually invest in cooperative love,
synergy,
to disinvest away from dissonantly competitive disease.

We are both perfectionists and deceptionists.
Health is our primal barometer
for measuring and valuing and evaluating
which is which.
Synergy revolves our deceptions
into our perfecting reception.
Synergetic global cooperation
is our shared ultra-violet
co-arising revolution.

Perfect love,
like perfect health,
is rare,
and impossible to find and maintain,
much less optimally sustain life’s potentiality,
in isolating co-reductive Win-Lose cultures,
nations,
economies,
paradigms,
metrics,
and theories.

We still have a choice;
let’s return together to the healthier and wealthier one.
