On PeaceMaking Leadership

An open letter to new legislators,
new chief executive officers,
new judges,
and all new healthy climate parents
and other health and safety advocates.

When you were in the process of securing this new position in your life
perhaps you were expected to speak fluently
about how your past experiences,
often negative,
had prepared you for this vocation at this time,
to represent the most prosperous and healthiest interests
for all,
especially the grandkids,
within your electoral/appointive constituency, first,
and then, as possible,
for all people everywhere.

You were elected, appointed, selected, or at least blessed.
So presumably you do this well,
this learning from past negative experience
to suggest how we will do better
with active hope for your future
in this empowered choice-making position

Representing your extended intentional familiar’s healthiest wealthiest interests
and also, with further maturation,
extending your budgeting authority for just and peaceful leadership
and political responsibility for kind and loving mentorship
across your entire organic constituency of bio- and ecosystems.

Your fluency between systemic trauma experience
and problem-solving reflection,
trauma-informed discernment,
is presumably why we selected you
to carry often heavy responsibilities for others
with, hopefully, wise freedoms of co-invested authority

Not too much authority
becoming a poor listener and ungrateful student,
and not too little responsibility
lacking integrity of enlightened and empowered
sacred health and organic safety.

By now, if you are a promising candidate or nominee,
you know far too much about why we all seem to be losing healthy climates together
when our wealthiest wise intention is to grow more cooperatively owned
and health-managed
climates and cultures,
manscapes and landscapes,
bodies and minds,
humane corporations and organic incarnations
progressing toward resiliently peaceful
polycultural
polyamorous
pronoia inter-relationships

Rather than more greed business as pathologically normal,
investing in divide and conquer politics,
and budgeting priorities
complacent about inevitable unhealthy
partisan
hate- and anger- and fear-mongering.

The Original Sin of opposing compassion/pleasure
mind/body deep-rooted integrity

Thereby promulgating further dispassionate communication
dissociating sacredly wealthy capitalist minds
from organically healthy corporate bodies.

More healthy (and inter-religiously blessed) democratic choices,
in this transitional time
inviting more economic and political gratitude
for ever-new kind and loving opportunities
while living more compassionately
and pleasantly,
within our richly diverse responsibilities.

  1. It is now time
    to come through on all those verbal commitments I made
    to myself
    and to those who have put me behind this desk,
    or even on this pedestal,
    based on wisdom of learning curves rooted in past regenerative experience,
    and degenerative nightmares,
    and my understanding of the positives and negatives,
    the therapies and the traumas
    apparently endemic to our shared ecopolitical experiences.

Here, you see yourself more as a student
among co-empathic deeply cooperative teachers,
co-passionately discerning,
co-empathically trusting more than mistrusting
Earth’s ecologically climaxing polycultural health
and humanity’s expanding multicultural wealth.

  1. It is now my well-timed opportunity
    to step more deeply into my learning curve.
    What do these voices of these constituents,
    those now in my day to day learning experience,
    most want to discuss and contest with sacred me
    that organic we
    actively hope to learn more about together?

How can I share this learning process with my most multiculturally
inter-religiously
trauma-informed,
and informing,
compassion/pleasure-motivated constituents?
[Or, in the case of more therapeutic parenting, our kids.]

How can I bring this nonviolently communicating extended family along
on this transformative journey
toward economic and political
enlightened and empowering
cooperative love-life discovery
about what promises to optimally secure
and sustain
short and long-term regenerative healthcare outcomes?

On the other hand, what threatens to perpetuate
dissociative 0-sum bottom-line
capital-investment
Business As Competitively Usual,
defiantly invested in my either Win or Lose campaign debates
but not in my wiser
and more Win and Win bipartisan co-empathic moments
and cooperative days
and co-invested weeks?

Bicamerally evolving, revolving, resonating
more compassion
more deep learning curiosity loving hearts
resonant, rather than dissonant, bihemispheric ecological minds
born of DNA-fueled bodies
born of RNA-reweaving deep rooted ecotherapeutic
peak interdependently cooperative climate experiences
recomposing organically wealthy planet Earth.

We could approach this season of gratitude
more democratically investing in cooperative ownership and management
of interdependent political economies.

Healthy peace-making cultures
prefer to invest in deeper and wider democratic ownership
rather than more competitive plutocratic mismanagement
and authoritarian ownership.

Bilateral exchange economies,
like the power and control political relationships
from which communication systems derive
investment and divestment values,
with monopolistic capitalist 0-sum Win or Lose understories,
monotheistic anthropocentric entitlement stories
assuming survivalist might makes right evolutionary theory
is the only true historic game
on cooperative organic-nurturing polycultural Earth

Will always health- and wealth-care underperform
more robust empowerment of democratically multicultural
win and win bilaterally co-intelligent peace-making

Nonviolently communicating
through both word and action
more democratically trusting
than autocratically mistrusting
polities

Composed of EarthPeace history’s
organically sacred
preferentially polyamorous
extended peak passion/pleasure
win/win crown to root
ecotherapeutic families

Reflecting on how our past experiences,
often traumatic,
have compassionately prepared us
for this EarthPeace-making leadership vocation
at this climate-failing anthropocentric time.

CoOperative Communion

These people I safely know
who like to healthy grow
fail to distinguish
between cooperative housing
and cooperative households

Which
as we all seem to know
although textbooks often fail to show
include cooperative gardening
and cooperative farming
and possibly cooperative
organic management
of a polytheistic living planet.

In each interdependent case
we explore something together,
some primal trinitarian relationship
between healthy resilience
and safe transitions
and beautifully balanced
resonant energy

Synergy produces
co-arising fruits of sexual
sensual
and sacred exotic
erotic regenerate sensations

Further witchy wonder which,
like a resonantly tasty
and fragrant,
richly brown and black
white and green
orange and yellow
red textured
robust stew,

Cooperatively touch
and feel
and show
and thereby know
a primally sublime
healthy
safe
and beautiful home.

Funeral For A BiPolar Alien

Friends,
Trumpians,
EcoFeminists

We gather here
to no longer hear divisions
across a win/lose
zero-sum aisle
so we can see revisions
within a win/win
nonzero-exponential
future free of buried guile.

Green flowing fullness
no longer mourned
for lost love of deep polytheistic
polyculturing wealth
buried in deep
indigenous
metaphoric meaning

RedBlooded LeftBrain anthro-alien exceptionalism
may open whole resurrection systems
to universal anthro-healing skillsets
widely re-educating
re-birthing
re-incarnating analogical
ecological
theological shared purposes

For getting,
and not forgetting to get,
out of bed healthy
and potentially happy
win/win optimistic

Even on this cold
wet grey Monday morning
buried inside claustrophobic
windowless
closed door
meet and meet
and greet and regreet
and regreet meetings
curiously scheduled
and rescheduled
and unscheduled
and overscheduled burials
of hidden win/lose agendas

Continuing sacred graveside
all afternoon
on into early dusk
late life
of peace returning
eventide outside

Benediction
for formerly divided
green ecofeminist aliens
and our redblooded
health happy wealth
of inside/outside allies.

AnthroScenic Genes

My matriarchal genetic line
of narrative
not quite sublime
resonantly erupts
regeneratively abrupt

Loves repeating
robustly carnal wisdom’s long
drawn out song

Continuously unabated
with unconditional
transgenerational regard
is something emerging more
than simply not not hated

Unlike our discontinuous patriarchal lines
drawn win/lose competitively
dominating lies
across sandy soils, now quaking
under shaking stubborn feet
awaking.

Where Mom will wake
each morn to greet
this life feels glad
to peacefully repeat

While Dad will scowl,
invoke defeat
his love was lost
in-dus-trials
of empty sad
repeat

Monotonously monotheistic
monopolizing maniacal statistics
monoculturally atheistic
monochromatically dominating
anthro-supremely
down with EarthRights
hedonistic.

Green Boat Home

Though within me
I feel red motions,
Burning up Earth’s mountains
and plains,

Far away from Earth’s green-blue ocean,
Still this red blood heart can sing:

We are sailing,
All EarthTribes now,
never health harbor
or safe port have we known.

Our Anthropocene
surfs the ocean we travel regathering
red ironclad Earth
blues our green
boat
home.

Integrity’s Health Potential

If to be
is to communicate

Perhaps
to be healthy
is to communicate
with deep listening
and nonviolent speaking
regenerative integrity.

Both secular and sacred
natural and spiritual
scientific and inter-religious
universal truths and unitarian trust

Faithful to mind and loving with body
ego and ecosystemic
rational-compassionate
Either/Or-Both/And
bicameral
bipartisan
Taoist
NonDualist

Not-Not Zeroist
strength/flow
space/time balance.

Sacred Origins

That first black and white
grainy
strangely fluid
floating
flat screen view
of the early developing individual
inside EarthMother’s womb

Reminds me
of that first
full-spectrum green and blue
strangely white cloudy
moistly floating
slowly revolving
flat screen view
of home planet
still developing
evolving
revolving Earth.

A LeftBrain dominant individual worldview
from a RightBrain bilaterally individuating
Self/Mother
Home/Other
co-arising contextual perspective.

I find it difficult
to see these embryonic becomings
as if emerging from
monotheistic v panentheistic
ego-transcendent v ecosystemic immanent
imminent
degeneratively emergent
anxious Original Sin.

Original corruption,
degeneratively mortal design
implies our Creator,
our recreative natural/spiritual processes,
our Yangish MonoGod,
our Yintegral PanEntheistic regenerativity,

Made an anthropomorphic
inhumane
unloving
win v lose
zero-sum calculated mistake

Original Sin
concludes that humane spirituality
is dualistically severed
from divinity’s naturally regenerative
integral
organic
synergetically co-relational
win/win potential
before any umbilical cord
is surgically severed.

This, in turn,
confuses a LeftBrain dominant
either true or false
way of competitively adding v subtracting
win/win multiplying nonviolent regenerative health
for both mother and child,
Earth and her EarthTribes

Back before white privileged
LeftBrain dominant males
disproportionately developed English,

Further back
before linguistic empowered language
evolved from economically enlightened
numeric quantification
scale
organic rhythm
syncretic nurturing pace
integral sacred felt space
curiously intrigued
emergent win/win
co-relational
metric
fractal DNA patterns
of co-attaching
healthy co-investments

Infant organic neurosystems already knew
Earth’s bilateral inspiring intelligence
was troubled
when the following were no longer nondualistically sensed
as self-referencing
regenerative
integral
synonymous win/win experiences:

life as love
resilience supporting resonance
nature outsiding inside spirit
body-mind
EgoBaby/EarthSystemicMother

Passionate compassion
humane-divine
secular-sacred
ego-ecosystem
autonomy of interdependence
oneness of zero
linearity of spiraling circles
fullness of empty

Historic Culture
justice of peace
equity of integrity

Health optimizing wealth
Me of We
individual relationship
colonizing creolization
competitive cooperation
Either/Or reconsidering Both/And
linear bipolarity co-arising circular dipolarity

Prescriptive Thoughts emerging from descriptive Feelings
cognition of intuition
perceiving EarthTribe receiving
secular space throughout sacred time

Imagining my journey
since my first black and white
prematurely grey grainy
strangely fluid
floating
flat screen worldview
of ego-home planet
still developing
evolving
revolving
health wealthing
sacred
full-spectrum
spiraling MotherEarth.

Healing With Ivy

Overly familiar with her defiance
patterns of fetal alcohol confusion,
neuro-systemic habits of resistance,

I, the consummate ecofeminist,
was sure my daughter felt
I was shutting wounded Ivy out
when she wanted me
to enter her toxic on-line
stream of Sponge Bob consciousness

When she came to me,
in self-care mode,
while I was meditating
reading
reflecting
writing
breathing deeply in,
then out

One gasp for hope
at a new pandemic time,
searching for one hour
without unmitigated despair
at this unhealthy contagion time,
one calming day at a time,
one therapeutic glimpse at a week,
one unimaginable month,
one lifetime of a year,

One retiring stage,
one quickly ancient life,
one emerging seamless love
at this time.

In exasperation
with her insistent interruption
in my sacred space,
I exclaimed
“Ivy, I can’t take care of you
if you won’t let me
take care of me!”

To which she replied,
“Can I sit here
quietly
next to you?”

I was skeptical,
cynical about cooperative deep breathing
with screaming screen-time Ivy,
but “You may,
if you can”

And so she did
sit next to me
at the head of my bed
where her paraplegic brother slept
post-seizure,

She leaned her black curled head
against my old white man shoulder
peacefully
breathing side by side

And that is how
we resiliently entered
into this passing
evolving
rising and falling,
erupting and disrupting pandemic
of Earth’s green
and sacred
virally emergent
health care.

Resilient Redemption

Probably few of us
have capacity
to see ourselves
as both Angel
and Demon.

Many of us
have had the experience
of demonizing
and punishing ourselves
for sins of the past
extending into our present
festering
unresolved trauma.

Hopefully many of us
have also had the experience
of forgiveness
and saving ourselves
from sins of the future
because someone shared with us,
in some effective way,
that nothing
is always your autonomous fault

If only because
no organic creature,
anthro or otherwise,
is born
or can survive
radically autonomous
from non-ego centers.

Personal identity
follows interpersonal
ecosystemic individuation
developmentally
causally
and effectively.

I hear healing opportunity
in this responsible
yet not solely responsible
both/and way of consciousness

As well as traumatizing risk
of denial,
too cheap self forgiveness,
too easy hiddenness
of our secret
most private
feelings of guilt
about harming another

Both intentionally
and without malice,
accidentally.

A woman’s reluctant decision
to abort may feel unresolvable
between angelic win/win desires
and demonic win/lose fears
and angers

As might
her reluctant decision
to buy a gun
and several ominous rounds
of deadening ammunition

To protect herself
and her children
from traumatic demons
at her flimsy door

Not considering
her lack of experience
with braver angels
hoping to reassure her.

Therapeutic angels
may also wait,
curiously
and impatiently,
outside that same door,
searching for health’s
most wealthy bell
to dispel
shared dark shadows

In-between silent demons
we abhor
and sacred angels
we redemptively adore.
