Deviating Sisters

One of my sisters believes I chose to be queer.

Did you remind her
you had no more choice about chasing guys
than she did?

Yes.
But her favorite televangelist
says I must be mistaken,
or just lying,
because who wouldn’t choose to be hated
by all the hetero homophobes
like televangelists,
and evangelical radio heads,
right?

That makes no sense.
She can’t really believe
you would choose to belong
to any repressed and humiliated minority,
especially during early onset of puberty,
when every girl and boy in any culture
is terrified of becoming different,
or special,
or weeded out of the clickety-clak pack.

Well, as she sees it,
she is in a LoseLose double-bind.
Either I chose to be queer, and am thereby demented,
or God graces all forms of WinWin sexual expression,
which would be contrary to her homophobic enculturation,
so it is easier to believe I am nuts
to choose perversely
than to consider herself nuts
not to choose more graciously,
especially with regard to God’s creative capacity for love,
rather than simplistic judgments
which look and smell and sound like patriarchal sexism
more than radical compassion of God’s healthy pleasure
of regenerative love among all gendered children,
red and yellow,
black and white,
gay and straight
and shades of grey transgendered,
each is precious in our polyamorous
Gaian Hypothesis sight.

What about your other sister?

Oh, she agrees.

With what, or whom?

She agrees we’re all nuts.
Nuts
not to choose healthy love
over pathological hate
and fear
and anger
and greed,
craving to keep all the hot men
for one’s own privileged clan.

Abolishing Apostacy

Wealth of Integrity

You have heard it said
Turn your swords into plowshares.

We, both Left and Right, echo that to add
Turn from planting bombs and bullets and barbs
to planting trees, and shrubs and carbon-infested fibers.

If our problem is too extreme climate change,
Our resolution is to plant trees, not bombs,
plant shrubs, not refuge-denying inhospitable shrugs,
plant and re-invest carbon, not climate runaway,
through co-investment capital values,
not egocentric hoarding pathologies.

Does this sound like Republican apostasy?

Apostatize–to depart from orthodox integrity.

Hypostatize–to treat and/or regard as a distinct substance
or reality.
Antonym: Synergize

To compassionately communicate
is to integrate
by bringing together
what was LeftBrain hypostatized.

Domesticate: To welcome and train for matriarchal cooperative purposes;
exclusive of patriarchal hoarding and/or self-indulgent divestment
degenerating Earth’s synergetic economy.

Capturing and Hoarding (aka LeftBrain Piracy): Sins of long-term hypostatization,
loss of nutritional flowstream,
dissonant upper-caste privileged choices
with Win v Lose 0-sum assumptions
where ego/eco-systemic Both/And options
are co-empathically apparent,
but kept non-communicated
separate.

Matriarchal AntiThesis
(like Gaia Hypothesis):
Carbon/capital re-investment in global domestication
is dynamically equivalent to
Win/Win healthy-wealth root systems
of and for compassion values v dispassion disvalues.

To LeftBrain hypostatize thoughts
and not RightBrain synergize feelings
as revolution without evolution,
as authoritarian Yang without domesticating Yin
as patriarchal dualism is to matriarchal nondualism.

We need to comprehend
as of yesterday,
if not earlier,
a profound ecotherapeutic difference
between hypostatizing YangLeft v YinRight dualistically bipolar,
mutually repellent [EitherLeft/OrRight deductive verbal dominance]

And creolizing Yang with Yin nondually dipolar,
co-arising + co-gravitating [Both/And co-empathic intuition].

Just as absolute Yang power corrupts absolutely,
universally,
foundationally,
fundamentalistically,
elitist-plutocratically,
egocentrically,
ethnocentrically,
anthropocentrically,

So too, absolute love transforms integrity, synergetically,
symmetrically,
zero-sum polypathically,
polynomially,
poly-enculturingly,
eco-politically
cooperative nutritionally
health as wealth of regenerate value,
ego/eco-normative
upper-caste isolated abolition.

Integrity’s togathering key toward climate health,
internal and external,
psychological and political and economic and ecological,
is to look at how we cooperatively reinvest in carbon catchment
and disinvest of carbon exhaust,
loss,
waste
of competitive breath.
WinLeft v LoseRight sub-optimal thinking.

But, the same could be said of water
and oxygen
as breath
and love and integrity compassioning,
rather than hypostatizing,
co-arising interdependence.

LeftBrain hypostatizing domination of history,
when we could also be RightBrain synergizing
her domesticating democratizing creation story,
is rooted in egocentric Win v Lose hypocrisy,
denial of immediate and continuously interdependent co-responsibility
for who we already healthy are
and whom we are not cooperatively wealthing,
yet.

As long as our LeftBrain enculturation lords it over a lower class,
We are all RightBrain belonging poor.

As long as we fail to recognize a LeftBrain segregating function
We are all RightBrain outside our ethical-normative fertile fold.

As long as we capture and hold prisoners
for their further degeneration,
We are, none of us, optimally free
to enjoy our polyamorous
panentheistic
Gaia Hypothesis sweet spot.

Integrity’s Boundaries

What if we were lusty song,
sacred litany?

What if…
What if we were sensual dance,
grace filled choreography?

What if we were organic energy?
Naked branched and rooted trees
joining navels
from native mother wombs
to nurture Mother seeds
down through speciating generations
up for regeneration.

What if we became trusted time
for reorganizing space?
Irreplaceable humored climates
recreating sacredly organic humidity.

I am not your sad place
and not gladly mine
with responsibility to displace
or authority to replace.
I am not my fading face.

We are designed to fall apart,
even with unlikely careful wear.
So what is this time
of my planned obsolescence?

No refuge from surrender
to daily worn-out deaths.
Not yet refused to rise this day
ready for each dusk
without anticipation
for love or lust
rain or dust
win or bust.
It’s just us
wearing down the best we can.

What if…
What if we were each a song
resonating one pure measure
of integrity’s longest line dance?

What if we were timeless energy
resonating freestyle
mind embodiedness?

Sacred Time Travel

My body restrains my mind.
Logic as ecologically constrained,
naturally rational,
like rain does not fall up
unless I am standing on my head.

Embodiment also limits my mind.
Imagination often resists such sparse powers,
yet thrives on simplicity
without devious duplicity.

I can imagine pleasure of mind
capable of visiting China for an hour one day
and one night,
a particular coastal town,
a particular family,
a particular other body
looking back at me
imagining how he would look and sound
to someone like me
from a coastal town in the U.S.
And then my mind’s eyes become his,
looking out at his loved ones
and actively distrusted ones
and his vistas and landscapes and climate smells
and hopes and fears.

Then the tip of South Africa
in the next hour,
then visiting both Syria and Korea
five hundred years ago
to explore constancy and change
in how we look and sound,
smell and taste,
how we feel trusting and mistrusting
and how we might feel about my ego-mind
left disembodied behind

Then visit again five hundred years from now
to notice in this same variety of ego-
and eco-
conscious passion ways.

In all these disembodied images
my frequent flyer
yet frugal ego remains
relentlessly enclosed
by limitations of my own body’s discontinuous memory
of ego-eco recentering mind,
favoring transparent fluidity of confluence,
aesthetics of peace
contagious passions
pleasure in symmetry
full-color harmony

Therapeutic integrity of time travel
resonantly trusting in
and dissonantly mistrusting out
momentarily before breathing back in
with equanimity.

Becoming extended out through Earth organic
space and time,
only and finally to come back to rest
within polyculturally edified
yet eco-politically simplified
reconnecting presence
of still ego/eco centering me

Hoping you will love how I look and sound,
smell and taste,
feel and empathically trust
at least as much as my mind can
comprehensively engage phylogenic connection

We human natures each and all meta-morphically breathe in,
evolutionarily extend out
to transcend mere ego images,
befriending frugal flow of trusting EarthTribes
past history
and future mystery.

My body restrains
and trains my mind
as anthropocentric evolution constrains
organic Earth’s co-empathic ethology,
as Earth ethotic landscapes
retrain out
restrain in
sacred climates of compassion.

Planning v Praying

Prayer’s wealthy positive potential
is not as substitute for healthcare planning.

Prayer might be a prelude to planning,
and might be an appropriate postlude
to fully implemented plans,
whether psalm of gratitude
or requiem of remorse
depending on healing or diseasing outcomes.

Even better,
some gratitude and humble remorse,
held together,
demonstrating we have learned something
from our nondual co-arising trial and error
and yet continue improving
our loving healthcare refinements.

But, whether my life plans are what happened
while Earth continuously revolved in other distressing directions,
or I continue learning to plan somewhat more cooperatively
and multiculturally
and polyculturally
and polyamorously

Inductive prayer and deductive plans co-arising
integrally more than separately,
hopeful prayer is the faithful planner’s co-redemptive bookend,
Alpha and Omega double-binding points
of interreligious
peaceful reorientation

Not my personal How to Save the World book,
much less evangelically seminal scripture.

Prayer is my yeasty bread and liturgical garnish,
embodied needs to rise and dance,
mind wants to sing romance,
but not the red arteries and blue veins
of ego/ecologically balanced
lovely heart-care planning.

Something defenders of the 1st
and 2nd Amendments
might want to hold together

You have no authentic freedom of speech
or rights of interreligious
interdependently polyamorous
polytheistic expression
if I have the right to aim a gun
at monotheistic
monocultural caste preservers,
monopoly players
who disagree
unarmed.

And I have no authentic prayer
for victims of ballistic violence
that doesn’t include
intercessory planning.

Same Old Differences

Why is it that philosophers and scientists,
politicians and even theologians
expect more bountiful outcomes
from relentlessly segregating
and disparately defining
what their passions
and great pleasures
are not?

Positive definitions
lie within
these negative defensive boundaries
of what it,
whatever “it” may be,
is not.

Religion is not science
and philosophy disregards the merely scientific
and scientific religions are an abomination
(too totalitarian, you see)
and history is none of the above,
yet speaks all of the above
about all of those below,
especially if they presented themselves
as unmitigatedly straight
purely white
exceptional men.

These traditions born of human experience
grow paradigmatic double-binding walls
to define what’s healthy in
by what’s best out.

Yet, ecology of natural/spiritual
both physical
and metaphysical
nondualistic systems
respects no oppositional boundaries
and all appositional contrasts

Where history/herstory is Earth’s organic story
unfolding co-passionate reunion,
leftbrain scientifically formed
and rightbrain religiously flowing

Remembering
reincarnating
reweaving
reconnecting
re-ligioning
nondual co-arising con-science
ecology of karmic grace
through Gaia’s climate healthy wealth

Compromised by encroaching eco-political
anthropological
and too-industrial
climate pathologies
of inhumane competing hubris.

Western religious traditions
may differ from Eastern
through telling an historically embedded tale
of universal organic empowerment
rather than timeless nondual metaphysics
of becoming sacredly enlightened
EarthTribe unitarians

Yet both are within one ecological umbrella
of passionate mind
and pleasured body
contenting and co-arising regenerativity

Climate health reversing decompositional degenerativity
as further Too AnthropoCentric Busyness
competitively hunting and devouring
far more than gathering and absorbing

Cooperative counter-balancing
draws LeftBrain scientific thought
and RightBrain religious feeling
boundaries
around what God/dess Earth
has brought nutritionally
married together.

Scientific philosophers,
and sometimes even religious theologians,
find healthier and more regenerative
passionate policies
and pleasing procedures
for refining how our ecological loves
remain great transitionally storied
indigenously cooperative pursuits
of comprehensive integrity.

Higher Health Powers

I was noticing that those in the Unitarian Universalist Association,
with which I am more or less anonymously affiliated
in some far too sensitive way for personal comfort,
believe in three prime sources for their (our) truth search,
rather like a revised holonic trinity,
equally at home for Buddhist monk
or Islamic
or passionate Christian
not at all black v white
saint v sinner
fundamentalistic.

The first of these is a Higher Power.
Now this must have been written by the Yang Universalists
within the Universal-Unitarian assembly,
because every wholesome Yin Unitarian knows
that what is a Higher Power for Universalist Yangers
is also a Deeper Power for Unitarian Yinners
bilateral Both upside And downside winners;
so, a HigherYang/DeeperYin Power.

Then we come to the second source,
YangLife and YinDeath.
Now any bicamerally balanced Unitarian/Universalist,
just as any Wu-Wei Taoist,
knows there is always something of Yin within Yang
and vice versa;
so, not fundamentalistic
Yang v Yin

Just as there is something of our daytime lives
in our nighttime dreams
and vice-versa

Sometimes inductive dream work
presents bipartisan incisive insights
into next morning’s Win/Win transformation

For a breathlessly filling balance
of ego- and eco-consciousness,
empathically trusting in healthy Yang universal life
and safety of exhaling final Yin unitarian death

Leaving further climatic paradoxes
and coaxial dialectic nondualities
for future regenerations to sift through,
feel,
engage,
please,
tease,
comprehend and decompose
to then reweave again
thicker,
deeper peace

As full-octaved light emerges from
resonantly empowering
deep penetrations and dark circlusions
so organic life emerges from sacred mini-death
mind explosions with body erosions

Coital absence of disparate life at ego-centered levels
posing both ecological risk and anthropocentric opportunity
in wider and deeper EarthMother nurtured
cobinary becoming
polyamorously together.

Finally, we have sacred words and ways,
YangLogos and YinMythos,
integrity’s passion/pleasure experience
reflected in remembering language
of ancient copulation
populations,
presumably filled and emptying
and refilling with both higher and deeper
caste powers.

So, that’s it.
We have higher patristic Universal Light
with deeper bicameral learning
matriarchal Unitarian Power

Living when not dying
to win YangSpirit/YinNature nonduality together,
as written in fusing-fractal DNA, and RNA

Each sacred ecological re-generative
co-operative
re-productive rights
and re-creation wrongs
EarthWealth story.

Now our 3-Source trinitarian story takes us to 7 Principles,
which some permaculturists would expand out to 12,
while spiraling octavists, and maybe sufis and artists, stop at 8,
which eyes and ears reweave
into a regenerative bilateral-fractal 4
seasons of health and safety restoration

Perennial transformation
or cooperative system regulation
and self/other governance

if you are a Yin-Unitarian NonZero-Sum economist
or a Yang-Universal EarthRights healthcare politician
or possibly even nondual BothCrown/AndRoot
alive and growing
out your extending UU-Taoist family
tribe,
species,
garden,
continent,
planet

Wu-Wei in-between horizontal space
and vertical times
where Sun greets Earth radiant horizens
nondually high and deep co-arising seeds,
trees
indigenous needs

And other bilateral root ego health
and branching eco-safety systems
seeking both higher enlightenment
and deeper empowerment

Day and night

Trusting Peace

The organic building of a coordinated artist
begins with reconstructing competitively clumsy LeftBrain technicians.

Whether learning to play the piano
or learning to communicate in some new language,
learning to adopt
or adapt
norms and nuances of some novelty,
human nature starts, and started, with Elder RightBrain
inducing autonomic pre-programmed neurosystemic receptivity
pre-historic
pre-verbal
pre-anthropological
embodied inside/outside resonance v dissonance
triggering changes in attraction/distraction
feeling/touch
taste/smell
pleasure/displeasure
and, eventually,
as plants evolved persons,
sight/sound.

Fluid inducted feelings, to this day,
in these developing anthropocentric bodies,
evolve toward deductively remembered,
articulatable thoughts

Reductively decomposing complex multisensory memories
of ancient communion communication resonance
and discommuning discommunication dissonance
we notice in commensurable neurosystemic experiences
including preverbal mammalian
attracted in some positive co-empathic way,
inviting further transgenerationally trans-speciated trust.

But, stumbling across a personally anomalous situation,
ambiguously felt,
having become historically aroused by novelty
we may trust due to anticipating received resonance
or distrust due to anxiously perceived dissonance

Moving toward aggressive competitions
too loud, stinky, unsightly, unsavory, threatening
to ignore in some risk-tolerant way,
falling short of co-passion
anticipating trusted rewards
engaging win/win positive co-intelligent
communicating relationships.

From positive trust expansions
and from negatively threatening attritions,
our deductive LeftBrain builds categories
of neurosystemic patterns
to reduce organic mystery’s holistic gestalt
into cause-effect history
recycling spiraling parts and portions
proportions and distortions
appropriations and malpropriations

Until we can personally predict
to our win/win
win v lose
lose/lose hypostatic satisfaction,
and sometimes hypnotizing horror,
how to regenerate/degenerate
novel trusted/distrusted/untrusted expression
within our own behavioral mindbodies

Through deliberate,
step by discrete sequential step,
memorizing cognitive performance technique until this new pattern,
novel sequence of embodied rhythms
integrates into an interdependently cooperative
inside/outside resonant engagement

Becoming “second nature”
internalized,
as ingrained by neurosystemic trust
as smelling our way back home.

But, this second nature,
after learning to perform a love song
also becomes a resonantly engaging emotive narration

While a hate story,
the kind you might hear in a military boot camp
and a fear-triggering revival tent,
feels dark
disengaging ballistic trauma

Multigenerational RightBrain systemic trauma
venomously screams threats at anyone mistrusted
as hostile to our ego-defensive self
in some disturbingly unenlightened way

Becoming incorporated into Left v Right Brain
reiterative oppositional
discommunicating absence of positive trusting flow.

Technically learned performance
moves from LeftBrain dominant cognitive minds
toward RightBrain-inductive co-arising bodies
of “second nature” expression,
nonverbal communication
preferentially activating already mastered
behavioral-affective neurosystemic constellations
of interior/exterior resonant activity,
as naturally engaging as writing
with your right dominant hand,
yet recessively potentiated
to bilaterally relearn
drawing scrawling left hand
re-associated literary performance.

Given all the above,
when and why would becoming a violent aggressor
become an ego-acceptable,
LeftBrain deductive dominant choice
of encultured instinctive response to “non-kin”
as opposed to “not yet kin”?

How would one become attracted to,
and sustained by,
becoming a dissonance-creating and expanding bully,
an aggressor against potentially invasive aliens,
parasites,
pests,
sinners,
criminals

You have not ever personally met
exhibiting threatening behavior
toward yourself,
or those you already perceive as “kin”?

It seems that terrorism and bullying
might also be rabidly aggressive behavioral-affective distrusting patterns
which can be as competitive communication contagious
as cooperative trust
in healthier patterns of extending win/win anticipation together
rather than thrusting and parrying apart.

In Win/Win nonzero-sum reiterative Compassionate Communication Theory,
and in feminist cooperative eco-political Reproduction Theory,
learning resonant-positive nurturing behavioral norms
anticipates mutual trust outcomes

Win/Win bilateral inside-ego/outside-eco equivalence
that normatively anticipates pay-it-forward more of the same
as long as everyone follows Left-Right confluent
behavioral-affective Golden Rule mature trust patterns
toward mutually compassionate “second nature” norms.

What positively engages Elder brainstem “first nature”
is profoundly matriarchal-cooperative
mind-trust ethotic ownership
AND body-lust erotic governance
except under Win v Lose survival pressures
of past anxiety triggering experience
as environmentally re-membered
re-presented
re-vived
and not repaired.

It is here
in anomalous primordial seas
of survival of the “I Win so You Lose” fittest
where might makes dissociated ego’s narcissistically right
to survive today

Despite anxious bodies knowing
that performing hostilities by accessible aggressive means
predicts more of the actively distrusting same,
or even more
escalating risk of loss tomorrow.

But, this is not normative
“first [original matriarchal-love] nature”
just as it is not first-nurture-trust,
for if zero-sum survivalist toxicity
were our AntiGolden Rule primordial soup
from which we arrived at this time on Earth,
then human LeftBrain dominant nature
could never have evolved
decompositional cognitive technique at all.

Declaring private, or outrageously public, wars
against alien terrorists
is a traumatically compromised zero-sum choice
to play a negative Lose-incaste Life and Lose-outcaste Life Game
of despairing distrust

Unjustified and unrighteous terrorism
provoked by the chronic anxiety perception
no tolerable mistrust option has been diplomatically learned
throughout anthropocentric history
that we have not yet maturely and responsibly tried.

The zero-sum “I must win” so “You must lose” of Either-Or bottom-line
caste-preserving capitalism,
with a preference for competitive LeftBrain performance
rather than cooperative RightBrain engagement,
is an inhumane economic
and demonic caste-supremacist political choice
still denying opportunities to extend our first-nature
trust-nurturing
neurosystemic health
and environmental feelings

touched by sacred EarthMother’s safety.
