Nativity Birth Stories

If you have a favorite Messiah Story,
one that makes your sweetest Ego swell,
and stay that way,
then you also have a favorite political narrative
about how you would prefer your wealthiest power development
to optimize our healthiest ecological abundance.

For example,
for Christians,
is the Messianic re-creation story
merely redemptive grace coming down
and inbound?

Or also bodhisattva co-redemptive,
where grace,
like money,
flows more abundantly
when everybody has more than enough
gift-it-forward compassion
to also gift outwardly,
abound around town?

So, which still ReGenerating Story
you powerfully embody to co-invest ,
inhaling and exhaling,
extends or shrinks your primally significant economic choice

Wholesome Sacred Earth’s outside health
or whole-sum Organic HomoSapient inside wealth
or co-invested co-redemptive both?

Still empowering Messianic salvation
raining down grace
like light radiates regenerating power
love irradiates interdependent life systems

Authentically interreligious Messiahs
are not known for Win v Lose
divide and separate demonically dark cultic powers
of ego investment in overpowering Othered
outcaste-preserving players

Instead
more challenging
love your sad gift-hoarding enemies too
wisely knowing no one wins salvation
until every sapient species co-invests
in-down caste/out-up caste transformational co-redemption
of sacred EarthMother’s ecologically committed
polyculturing WholeEarth Peace

Climate paradise
perfected for
MessiahPassion/BodhisattvaPleasure
spiritual/natural co-investors.

How was original organic EarthTribe life created?
to ecologically love
abundant WinAnthro/WinEarth political reform

Speaking only from my own Ego experiences
cooperatively engaging as much outside
and outbound regenerative freedom
from degenerative inside and downcast gift-hoarding
as Anthropocene possible

For all sentient crownMessiah/rootBodhisattva species
of co-intelligent cobinary polyvagal design
living co-passion here
loving co-pleasing now
life-love’s universal trust,
unitarian grace

Peace-full belonging
feels like neurosystemic Messiahs past
still flowing through Bodhisattva future
co-redeeming ecosystems

In and out ego/eco-logical
up-caste and down-caste
AnthroCrowning and EarthRooting
SunFather and GaiaMother
primal co-relationship
of transforming grace
recaste
to further future co-redeemers

Inter-religiously messianic saviors
liberally graced
and conservatively gifted
by sentient polyculturing bodhisattvas

Pantheistic GaiaMother inside
empowered listening
long before monotheistic GodFather outside
enlightened speaking

Like every healthy newborn
wealth reborn
peace restoring messiah.

My Goal Is Safety

The generic-brand black and white bumper sticker
on the commercial passenger van announces
MY GOAL IS SAFETY.

I immediately know this cannot be the van driver’s intent,
much less praxis,
so boldly bald-tire displayed,
MY SOLE GOAL FOR BEING HERE IS MY SAFETY.

My sole purpose,
soul’s meaning
is defense against possibility of offensive initiatives
against challenging schools and hard driving tools
heading our way.

I guess rather too much for a bumper sticker
from and for
Earth’s merely mortal travelers
in between mother’s womb
and somber tomb.

Even so,
not exactly fine print,
this defensive repositioning
of what is our main goal.

What outcomes should we humanely expect
from our drive through life today?

But, surely not highest goal as mere safety?
As a parent, much less a social leader,
influencer of vulnerable healthy futures,
is our main goal for this four-year term,
this generation
future generations,
mere safety?

I can more historically see thriving outcomes
through maintaining a healthy safe reserve
while pursuing a wondrously enlightening
enlivening wealth
of grand epic adventures

Health optimizing climates,
polyculturing wealthy landscapes
safe-harboring homes
for co-empathically trusting
multiculturally thriving
inter-religiously striving stewards
of EarthTribe’s pronoia riches

Yang bold crowning integrity
upholding Yin safe-rooted synergy.

Abundant flow of economic and political freedom
thriving adventurous enlightenment
nurtured by striving selfless empowerment
from immigrating infancy
through emigrating mortality

Back through further regenerating futures
of EarthCentric health and happiness,
deep learning multigenerational prosperity.

I can’t see myself voting for any public service driver
with bumper stickers promising
MY POLITICAL GOAL IS SAFETY
(especially from you?)

Defensive Win/Lose strategies
defending against other anthropocentric defenders
with rabidly terrorizing, overpopulating pathologies,
NO TRESPASSING paranoia
against Earth’s health-wealthy
Win/Win pronoia

Venturous opportunities
now already cooperatively co-present,
climates of ecological empowering abundance

Democratic power relationships
weaving through the thick traffic
of economically synergetic transactions

Positive neuro-psychological
deep learning Gaia Hypothesis consciousness
bio-rooted in systemic health sciences
rediscovering EarthTribe’s multicultural ecology
organically matters
more than furthering sacred anthro-business as usual
MY GOAL IS UNMITIGATED DEFENSIVE PARANOIA.

Excellent.
Now he is swerving off to the extreme right,
no lane change blinking light
under his made in the USA
weaponized waving flag,
going about 20 mph over green light sustainable limits,
and I think he just lit his pants on fire
when his cigarette fell
on his not-so-safely defended crotch.

Namaste, my longing for safety brother.
Bless your right lane
systemically traumatized
heart,
Namaste.

Golden Rule Resonance

Talk to yourself.
Think and thank about your past selves,
how you have changed
and charged into different interests/disinterests
over years and decades.

Think about your now best self
as generously
as you might best re-listen and re-see
your worst felt unkind Enemy.

What can you hear about your older self
that you cannot also innocently perceive
with pleasing inner child compassion?

To belong in self-regenerating health
we might long for curiosity’s inter-communicating wealth
of alternative crown/root passionate pleasures
now/past
mature/infant
VerbalMe/PreVerbalWe
biological/ecological
individual/kindred
sacred/organic
co-empathic win/win relationships
,
To avoid repeating Win v Lose past-condemning strategies
through isolated ego-identity self v unself dissociation.

Empty of more fertile organic kindness
re-connection
resonating self and unself re-association
re-ligiously fore-giving
resilient preverbal voices
care-giving care-receiving
co-empathic resonant unchoices

Observing
and becoming more MindSpirit/BodyNature perceived,
belongingly loved

ReHearing your preverbal inter-rooted child
become lovingly listened to
and organically known
and sacredly appreciated
as is
and ever shall be

To again remember smelling
and tasting
and feeling resonant health
more kind than pathologically predative wealth

By reversing organic developing “self v not-self” concepts
we touch all timeless root-systemic
pre-verbal pre-histories
of indigenously wise
resonantly resilient
re-ligious regenerations

That could not possibly
have kindness become you
with autocratically irreligious degenerations.

Imagine inviting your sacred-organic
polyphonic mind
polyamorous body
into this new reconnecting day
to be filled to overflowing fruition
with democratically GoldenRuling others

Doing and saying to our verbally mature adult selves
as we would have compassionately pleasuring Elders
do and say kindness to our preverbal inner child

Feeling yourself
treating yourself,
meeting yourself,
listening and perceiving yourself,
with at least as much reconceiving kindness
as you would want
your own worst unkind trauma enemy
to respect sacred neurosystemic you
and your prenatal organic
ecosystemically kind-kin home

Still living and singing to yourself.
Thinking about and thanking yourselves
noticing how CrownMe/RootWe have interdependently changed
and charged into democratically resonant interests,
avoided autocratically dissonant disinterests,
over sacred seasoning years
and organically regenerating decades.

Powers of Enlightenment

I’ve noticed our Republic’s
IrReligious RightWing Tree of Life v Death
reacts to root-systemic problems
as if oak strong branches
lifted to majestic worshiping heights
of crowning supremacy
need not be concerned
with watering
and feeding democratic roots
of nutrition
nursing organic trust
and nurturing EarthMother empowerment.

Such behavior feels less organically intelligent
than a sacred Tree of MotherEarth

More like a gang
of Bully Putin Pulpits
and capital addicted TrumPublican Puppets
with upset expansive stomachs,
boundlessly hungry eyes
and private paranoid parts,
and irritatingly irreligious deaf ears

Trying to feed
from entitled top,
trickling down to lowly
leftover
humiliated bottoms,
what we must primally breed
and seed
from deep down
communing democratic trust inside

Roots musing down
and communicating in
to feed organic communion up
and sacred community out

Conserving crown to root neurological tree-systems
resonantly nurturing
harmoniously liberacious crowns
both/and
win/win
organic/sacred
resiliently conservational root systems
interdependently
inter-religiously
empowering/enlightening communion.

Not quite so angry
with enfeebled branched-out leaders
and not mad
with anemically sad internal conspiracies
and bad dis-investment habits
rather than glad co-investment skills

for resolving which top bully,
devouring all challenger bullies,
will next be crowned King
of trauma-riddled TrumPublican triumph

Trumped-up singing:
It’s my party
and you’ll cry
when I want you to.

Meanwhile
democratic grassroot systemic wisdom
burns and blows
drowns and starves

Degenerating patriarchal migraines
and not regenerating grains
of deep-rooted integrity

to feel multicultural health
trust
truth
beauty
pleasure
wisdom
compassion
loving kindness
pronoia peace

courageous polycultural curiosity
about interweaving wisdom
of inter-religious root systems.

Liberating resonant crowns
and conserving resilient roots,
bipartisan integrity of a wealthy
healthy
EarthMothered Tree.

Or so it seems to me
noticing our disunited Republic’s
troubled Tree of CrownHeavy Life
reacting against healthy multicultural democracy

Deaf
to wilderness voices of dying forests
coral reefs
oceans
topsoil
shrinking polar caps
glaciers
rivers

EarthMother’s unenlightened crown of thorns
and disempowering trunk of sorrows,
man-privileged monotheistic
irreligiously and monoculturally wrong
ecocidally desecrating
anthropocentric maladaptive root-trauma

cannot resiliently support
TrumPublican crown drama.

Wilderness Sanctuary

We are natural bodies outside
engaging spiritual souls inside

So also,
and more significant integrity
in this domesticated desecrating
lack of thriving

We are timeless souls
with spacious bodies

Sexual souls
with sacred bodies

Some sages called
to wild-muse ordination
of sensexual singing souls
communing sacred dancing bodies

Inside pleasure history’s
reweaving healthy rites
outside passion mystery’s
re-ligioning wild wealth sights

Of natural wilderness bodies

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,

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.

GrassRoot UpRising

Asked the crowning Trees
of their Grass rooting neighbors

When you feel like singing
while dancing
are you more likely to invoke devotion
to capitalism’s competitions
or compassion’s cooperation?

Responsive chords,
amusing reeds
and whistling thistles
shyly reply

When we feel most wealthy voiced
and healthy choiced
are we more likely to invest
in red soiled cults
of secular supremacy
or green cultures
of sacred communion?

MotherTrees of crowning shade
for their root systemic neighbors
flexed their branching muscles
groaning
moaning through Earth’s wind
and rain,
heat
and pain

Our best way to heal
Othering smothering instincts
is to repair our shared cooperative soil
restoring EarthPeace soul
of co-invested health

Thereby growing out
our shared climate
with compassion’s devoted wealth

Sang the crowning Trees

The Senior City Center

When I entered the City Senior Center
with my Open Mic proposal
to increase resilience
and decrease apartheid dissonance

I could hear no music,
see no dancing.

The quilting room
and the game room,
even the pool tables,
were as quiet as the library,
which at least held four contemplative people
scattered in their own secluded spaces.

Like visiting a sad monastery,
without tai chi,
chi gong,
walking meditation,
and/or yoga classes
filled with abundant creaky grace.

Back then
The Senior Center felt like a sad retirement home,
day care for some,
a reprieve from unmitigated loneliness
away from an empty nest,
a dusty divorce,
tiring widow weeds,
snarky dark separations,
untimely and unwanted departures.

A place to avoid risks
of dying unhappily
in sequestered
marginalized 24/7 isolation

More anxious now
than anticipating
long weekday evenings
dark nights
and bleak winter weekends

Where no outside kindness
for aching bones
and sinus cavities
could be found
in one’s private old age tomb.

Fading
failing
irrelevant
uncherished rooms feel frightening,
sometimes angry
waiting to die stations
for prisoners of neglect

Victims of systemic trauma
aging alone
in a retiring
and not repurposing
silent place.

Now returning,
as we cooperatively rebuild
our Senior Wisdom Center,
former inmates remember ourselves
as guilty criminals,
blaming and shaming
and judging our sins
of lacking compassion

Throwing our humbled lot
in with all those Otherers
accused of Earth Matricide

Smothering our organic Center
with extractive plunder

Abortion of our regenerative Planet,
HOME plant
exploited for anthroprivileged
economic
and short-term apartisan gain.

I couldn’t feel
much active hope
for multi-regenerative communion

For sacred transmutation
of bad
and mad
and sad
becoming win/win cooperatively owned
and managed
root systemic glad

Back before we became a Senior Wisdom Center
conjoined with the City Arts Center
exploring neighborhood after-school and weekend
Open Mic
and Community SingAlong Dances
and Flash Mob WellBeing Engagement events.

This switch
from segregated Senior Center
and unhoused lack of any Youth Center
to Senior Wisdom Center
supporting neighborhood MusEcology Skill Centers

Began with cooperatively engaging
healthy CrownChakra songs
while dancing wealthy RootChakra
cooperatively co-invested rhythms

Dipolar co-arising mind/body patterns,
win/win indigenous governance systems
more friendly to universal health care minds
seeking resonant opportunities
through unitarian wealth care bodies
drawn away from risky win/lose trauma
repurposing toward resilient win/win
co-passionate engagement.
