Exhaust

Asking why our partisan democratic experiment
appears to be
failing feels like asking why our global climate
appears to be
failing feels like asking why old age
appears to be
a failing.

Political minds,
natural bodies,
spiritual individuals
reflecting upon lose/lose thought and felt
tragic and absurdly nihilistic outcomes
where we originally expected win/win Paradise

Found in what is personal and political
and economic re-investment
in health and/or pathology choices

Earth and/or extending families center
toward more health
to also win wealth of yin-flow
potentiating powers slowing down
to process Business As Failure Usual,

Winning capital-monopolized shadow-wealth
to win unhealth of evermore
isolating Yang-strength
to overpower
where matriarchal/child love re-memories
could only empower with hugs
and songs

While asking
why our partisan democratic win/win experiment
in win/lose competitions
appears to be lose/lose
Failing feels like asking why our global climate
appears to be
Failing feels like asking why
old cooperatively-owned communal age
appears to be
a failing.

Are You Still Talking?

Said Liberal Left
to Conserving Integral Right,
I’m not sure why
yet you still treat win/win progressive cooperative opportunities
as if hiding a covert coven risk
of loose
wild
loser LeftWing evil conspiring ecofeminists
struggling within a strictly secular political agenda box
of anti-white privileged patriarchy.

Said Integral Right,
to Liberal Left,
We’re still working together.
Sparring maybe,
but not really boxing,
I seem to golden shadow hear,
our reweaving seasoned win health
win wealth
secular left
sacred right cooperative
co-governing hope.

Responds Liberal Left
to Integral Right,
I thought you all were invested
in capital infestment monopoly players
in Right makes Might nationalistic Paradise,
autonomous LeftBrain RightWing win
to lose LeftWing
not ZeroSum polyculturing prominence.

CoResponds Integral Right win/win ZeroZone,
multiculturing dominance
to, and with, Liberal Left,
We sound,
to me,
in harmony.

Progressive conservants
prefer to divest of anthro-history’s
ClimateHealth kleptocracy
of inhumane toxic un-naturality.

We might depolarize today
providing a new old-designing win/win cooperatively graced day
forward
onward
upward
outward
yet not quite so much LeftBrain dominant
plowing win/lose through right of might
bipolar rutted debate paths
and sluggish streams of struggling semi-consciousness.

Said Liberal secular Left
back with Integral sacred Right,
Instead of win/lose business as usual,
we might together uncover
what we can only together rediscover
in-between renewing healthy climates,

EgoLeft inside
and EcoRight extending synergetically outside,
Reweaving win health to win wealth cooperative
co-passionate re-investments
of wealth forms
and organic health functions
in history and future herstoric restories
of culture and religion,
of deduction and induction of cognitive and emotive,
reductive fragmenting theories
and inductive fragments of climate integrity,

When yang loves not-not yin
interdependently win/win
balances health-soul inside
as wealth-nature outside
once again
polynomially languaged
and enumerated
integrated

Polypathically not only secular,
not only sacred,
felt
hoped

Said Liberal Left speakers
while Integral Right co-passionately listened
for healthier multicultural consciousness,
pro-matriarchy patriarchy courageously felt
curiosity,
transparently heard
vulnerability…

…of cats in here/now shadow boxes
extending timeless ZeroZone mortality
of identity ecopolitics
of overheated dogs in there/then races
places
spaces
erases
back through not not ZeroSum…

Said Liberal Left secularizing mouth
to Integral Right sacred polyphonic ears.

Cooperative Learning

I think
and feel
it would be a good
and healthy change
if schools,
at all levels,
and parents,
of all nations,
taught our young
more about win/win cooperative
thrival passions
than win/lose competitive
survival dispassions.

Even better,
and more urgently primal,
seminal,
revolutionary,

We might become a good
and healthy climate change
if students and teachers
and children and parents
and listeners and preachers,
followers and leaders
listened to our young and old
with more win/win compassionate hugs
than win/lose competing survival detachments,
neglects,
disconnected abuses
learned through lifetimes of wounds
and non-win/win potential integrity
fractures,

Deeply and widely learned
from struggling unfree parents
and robotic behavior-commodified,
multiply and then divide,
left-brain dominant teachers
and schools
and monocultures
and nationalistic nonself-governors.

Nature Preserves

I don’t know many people so urbanized
they would not prefer a nature preserve
and star light
for neighbors, day and night,
over a new developed suburbanization.

Not too many people smile
when they drive by a familiar farm
with woodlands,
now scraped and scaped,
graveled and turfed,
cut down and razed with concrete foundations,
ready for more humans
not preserving natural relations
with more diverse species.

Nature preserves
promote both natural and spiritual reserves.

External nature preservation
emotionally walks
senses
feels and smells and touches
internal spiritual reserves,
sanctuary,
sacred habitat.

Most of us still cherish
natural multicultural places
as also spiritual polyphonic spaces
to visit,
know as cherished neighbors.

Few of us still live and love
as residents among sacramental traces
of past Paradise.

Even if right-brain’s emotional integrity of Earth sensed
as an interdependent matriarchal reservation
for restoring justice
through multicultural preserves
for inclusively democratic peace
has atrophied
to prefer the smell of asphalt
and chemically treated turf,

Together,
we can still remember
sacred ecological relationships,
glowing star lit nights,
cherished campfire habitats
following only DNA’s inspired multicultural health
as spirited happiness
instructions.

Natural wisdom
that what is good,
even for autonomous ego-development,
is also healthy
for sacred Nature’s preservation,
including Humane Places,
natural
sacramental,
emotionally and cognitively intelligent
Reservations

about what is healthy progress
and what is impoverishing regress.

Often,
in left-brain dominant prose,
We invest capitalized empowerment intention
investment in unnatural domesticated places,
re-nouns and pro-nouns more Proper,
speaking of independent ego-autonomy’s
drive-by missions,

And,
we fail to naturally reserve more capitalization
for what feeds our Spiritual Integrity Preservation.

Climate Work in RolePlay

I know this sounds like theater
of the absurd,
but I wonder if healthy role play
might be left-brain’s work ethic
inviting right-brain’s first and last impassioned word.

We might pretend our LeftWing
loves to play
irresponsibly back and forth repositioning
while RightWing
is crazy busy with win/lose economics
and disempowering politics
of arduous fragmentation,

Where God would paradise play
with roles of humane-divine
mutual infatuation,
cooperative ego-deferment
unto obsequious giggles
of “Oh no, you first.
I gracefully and divinely insist.”

AntiGod does hard vocational work
to teach pagan pilgrim players
and idle, irresponsible nature worshipers
to get back to harvesting souls
to be drained of daylight hours
manufacturing need and greed
to build our deadly war machines
and our ever higher and mightier towers
of anthro-hubris Babel.

Babel sounds like a healthier place to play
with natural sounds
and spiritual languages
for hide and seek with God
as scriptured, sure,
but also unscripted role play
between too autonomous to be realistic Egos
and too interdependent to be ungooey-theistic EcoLogicians.

I hear lose/lose ecopolitics
of hard work polarization
sounds dramatically absurd
while I continue to listen more imaginatively
to ego-eco
inside-outside
co-passioning play

Muse of RightWing stern capitalistic vocations
underplaying Win/Win co-arising
LeftWing wealthy health creations.

What I Owe

What I owe
my kids
their trees
myself
and you,

A more cooperative way to learn
and live
and earn,

An embrace of diversity,
not an attack of I-win/U-lose perversity,

Awareness of strength through vulnerability
to become appreciated for our transparent integrity,
out strengths, of course, but also weaknesses,
teachers recognized for healing fractures
in history’s more benign synchronicity.

What I owe myself
and you
and future regenerations,

Mindful we are the Paradise
of our nature/spirit Elder’s aspirations,

Conscious of fulfillment
in nutritional-vocational prophecy
and not just toxic extractive profligacy,

Understanding compassion
has two faces,
matriarchal ecofeminist within
patriarchal healthy-wealth equity without,
engaged in interdependent becoming
organic story-tellers
and synergetic music singers
and integral movement dancers
in-between sacred native Promise
and future creolizing Wisdom
generations of past through future
re-generators.

This is my work
in our pandemic climate time,
the work of this non-polarizing privileged life
longing for more universally therapeutic
multicultural
compassion,
Climate healing,
inside iconic
ironic
ionic co-acclimating communal outside
integrity.

I owe myself
relearning natural/spiritual nondualistic listening
spoken of by 4D spacetime
revolving
spiraling WiseElders.

We owe each other
polyphonic relationship
long cooperatively held
and co-managed
with all eco-dancing
healthy wealth of creation,
for re-creation.

I owe our children
turning from the story
of left-
and western-hemispheric domination,
climatic destruction,
patriarchal white straight-male supremacist illness,
to return to our new left/right
West/East EarthTribe emancipation story
rooted in 2020 bicameral cooperative re-vision
re-volutionary health/wealth.

Conscious co-creation
of win/win humanity
and eco-sacred ways of sanity,
of loving
and living
and dying,
being and becoming,
birthing and rebirthing,
developing and redeveloping
secular ideas and multiculturally sacred feelings,
integral compassions,
cooperative research vocations
of constant healing change

Recognizing
with humility,
What I owe you
our kids
myself
is that same cooperative economic
and empowering passion
our WiseElders
hoped for restoring justice
and global peace
They secularly and sacredly
naturally and spiritually,
cognitively and emotively
ego-healing and eco-therapeutically
owed you
our kids
and my own male white yang-privileged LeftWing
and unprivileged-yin victim of RightWing homophobia
self

Changing our bilaterally balancing Story
as transparently
and vulnerably
as left brawn with right brain
possible.

Listening to NonPrevention

For future reference,
it might be best
if I give up radio listening
when going out
to take a rest
from domestic
and national
and international climate mess.

Arrested gardening yesterday.
We need more mulch
fragrant as a hemlock forest retreat,
we are
and yet become
when in our wildly therapeutic
naturally domesticated
sit together
and stand less adversely apart,
and weed
and mulch sanctuaries.

So, today
I hear with smug dismay,
I’m nearly free enough to say,
MeToo consultants
and angry victims
despair of teaching coaches,
clergy
parents
and not quite legal/moral guardians
how to protect against sexual predation,
with something far short of therapeutic re-education.

This reminds me,
When experts developed anger management
and mortal fear internal administration technique,
They concluded diverse short-term counsel
with lifetime mindfulness training,
mindful multicultural listening
and compassionate restorative justice speaking
up and out for win/win health resolutions
rather than win/lose suboptimal
business as usual
right-hemisphere suppressions.

Kids with mental illness
and substance and physical and soul abuse issues
and pre-natal palsy
and lack of school-based emotional intelligence
(our list goes on without parental mercy),
need not so much touch prevention policy wars
but, yes, much more therapeutic touch enhancement peace
policies for restoring co-impassioned healthy souls
inside and out.

In a run-away win/lose competitive culture,
devouring any memories of win/win interdependent healthy families
and leisurely together wealth
of resiliently nourishing responsive relationships
between adults,
among interdependent adolescent peers,
within old and young regenerations
of compassionate passing together healing time

Preventing win/lose predator harm
relies first
and most robustly
on co-adventuring win/win mutual communication,
transparent invitations into co-empathic change
vulnerable
curious to psychically touch
to listen to
to speak respectfully
and delightedly
with interdependent sacramental regenerations
of every mundane day’s
left cognitive commitment
to healthy right relationship
co-empowering emotive communion
within interdependent Earth.

Restoring justice to adult-child relationships
cannot be primally rooted in punishing past injustices,
unrighteousness,
sins of our Fathers,
furthering retributive punishments,
anger,
fear,
loss,
suffering…

To build a healthier systemic resolution
of our growing epidemic,
feed
and water
and mulch therapeutic touch of voices,
respectful hands,
good health-humored minds,
sore and needy muscles
for optimal Earth regeneration.

Mindful thoughts and behaviors and feelings
cannot grow robustly from autonomous ego identity
but from interdependent eco/ego
outside/inside compassion.

Blessed Are…

Blessed are transgenerative memories
of spatial neighborhoods
and temporal past through future generations,

Ours is the compassionate co-empathy
sustaining Earth’s both natural and spiritual
outside and inside
inhaled and exhaled
implicating and exclamating
listening and praising
Zero ZenSoul

Of integral transubstantiating resilient health,
timeless expansive wealth,
becoming whole
holonic
bicamerally restructured again.

Sometime During the Night

Sometime during the night
I knew what was more right
to sing our songs
with great yang might
and soft yintegrity’s not wrongs.

We could sustain our notes
within this singing circle,
whether loud or soft,
but not too soft
to slowly feel our pitch
veer yinly flat.

Whether bright or dull,
vibrato or flat-line pure linear
waves of yang/yin sounds
to hear
to uniformly match dipolar
co-arising
and multiculturally mixed.

Then, as we listen and sustain,
we are free to retain our interdependent voices
of dissonance and confluence,
of dissent and harmony,
of resistance and peace,
and also free to change
toward growing harmony
or growing disharmony.

And, as we listen for re-alignments
in our ego/eco-voicing stream of time,
we grow free to hear with right-hemispheric wholeness
of our collective chord changes,
fluctuations,
together soft,
now growing louder,
softer,
bolder,
more peaceful
until fading into silent joy,
listening to our echoing after-ring power
of collective yang/yin reweaving memory.

We are no different,
on our better win/win communicating days,
of listening to curiously understand
than actively speaking out and up
for ego/ecological resilience
timelessly echoing,
both vibrato and flat-line
peacefully ever mountain/valley after.

Emotional Intelligence

Glutted left-brain information media
actively hope to understand

Why does emotional intelligence
speak to egocentric concerns
of mortality and discomforting toxic defeat,
loss and difficult win/lose everyday choices
in a calming voice for unself-conscious contentment?

What is this ZeroSoul content of contentment
to feel we are right
sentient full beings
here co-present
within eternal now relationships of compassion
affiliating on this Earth
in our co-passioning interdependent webs
of health co-operative
wealthy co-investment

Without mortal loss,
suffering;
Without unwanted walls between us
and them.

Why does emotional unintelligence
speak too loudly
intolerantly
of Earth-UnCentered constant concerns
of inhumane immortal overpowers
and toxic LoseHealth/LoseWealth
RightWing left-brain dominant choices
in cacophonous dissonant voices
claiming no rights to contentedly tolerate
only healthier multicultures
of win/win emotional intelligence?
