What Daddy Demands

EarthMama Invites

Without LeftDaddy Dominance,
RightMama
and Her still innocent suppressed Children,
share no opposing WinLose
assuming
internalized voices,
just anxious and angry
and fearful feelings
about LoseLose
ZeroZone,
ego and Earth
notnot matriarchal-line
c-squared ZeroZone extinguished.

Because all RightBrain feeling voices
and chemistries
are outside Sacred NatureSpirit
experientially
regeneratively
cooperative
Patriarchal/Matriarchal Voices
secular and sacred heart-felt narratives
evolutionary and devolutionary
ecologies with anthro-centric histories,
HerStories of DNA-RNA SpiritNatures
also Patriarchal TheoLogical
Outdoor OrthodoxVoicing NatureSpirits.

Difference and not sameness,
dissonance and not confluence,
between TheoDaddy and EcoMama
require LeftBrain theo-articulating Voice,
Language;

ZeroZone polyphonic
iconic EcoMama TrueFlowing
ergodic seasoned Beauty
inspires Future HealthIntegrity
NatureSpirits.

But, meanwhile,
with LeftBrain dominating language
and in RightBrain cooperatively felt love
for restoring inside with outside apposition, not so much opposition,
deep learning secular-sacred skill sets,
we come to today’s WinWin responsibilities
and not so much WinLose overinvested
in public deniability
to help restore
Sacred PositivEnergy
Ego through Global Transubstantiating Democracy
using both internally necessary
and externally transparent sufficient planning voices

For climate cooperative healthy-wealth design
rather than more BusinessAsUsual
sloppy health care giving and receiving
social ecopolitical pathologies.

Loyal WinWin CoMessiahs
and humble Bodhisattva Peace Warriors
and Bicamerally PolyPhonic BidDaddySun and LittleHotMamaEarth Yogis
and ZeroZone MindBody Performance Artists,

and Master Organic Gardeners and ReForesters,
and PermaCulture Design, not Resign,
CoInvested CoOperators,
and Restorative DNA JusticeWeavers
and RNA GreenPeace Advocates
for EarthFirst
EcoPolitical CoInvestors
in community through global WinWin–
we also could better hear our Inside WinLose Critics,

While we do our best to retain resilient resonance
to actively hope
to co-invest in strong Science, Organic-Technologies, and Arts
and ProForming and ActiveFlowing ReCreation Designs
and STAR community green and blue and brown
and yellow
and purple
and all those other colors and fragrant
resounding installations

ReIncarnations of WinWin Left-Right co-operative co-empowerment
each with diverse dialects
for understories of sacred gratitude,
positive LeftBrain secular attitude
for hearing and healing anti-ecological
both inside-yin and outside-yang danger.

We EgoLeft with EcoRight co-balance,
dipolar co-arise
more than bipolar co-gravitate
against more WinLose shit.

We may have Earth and Ego Cleanliness
and Purity Compulsions,
not allowing us to stick to a single vulnerable and innocent resource
out of multi-purposing polypathic place,

A meat-lover’s meal and unwashed eco-contaminated dishes
and clothes and hands and feet and hair washing Critic
for fear of what WinLose Daddy others
might kosher judge,
as not truly
and beautifully
and religiously
and polyculturally WinWin.

We may hear inside
Outside Performing Arts
and Designing WinLose Busyness Phobias
shutting down RightBrain attempts
at further polyphonic narrative building,
and moving choreography,
heart-songwriting
and WinWin soulful story-telling
and healing ecotherapy,
resulting in fear of dissonant WinLose addicted rejection letters
and incoming phone calls
of all unknown marketing-area code varieties,

And fear of WinWin Success
inviting each of us into further WinLose risk
deep-learning disgrace
ego-defaced
through messed up chaotic strategic
outside
and yet not organically felt
inside
past performances.

We may
political and economic and social WinLose FaultFind
BlameBuild
ShameShrill
examing each interpersonal-intrapersonal
co-investment
to be way too negative inside voice
competitively awkward and handicapping
if not downright violent and sadistic and fascist LoseLose
remedially disabling,
inviting hospitalization more than hospitality,
in some ears and eras,
and a punishing or merciful shot through the head,
in others.

We may have
NegativEnergy Psychological Critics
and Colonizing Missionary Religious Fascists inside
discouraging us from speaking in
Outside WinWin Declaration voices.

We do not think it is democratically
or even tyranically OK
to feel free to declare war on and against each other,
and yet not first through last
Alpha through Omega
feel free
to declare our universal healthy
secular and sacred love
with each other.

This violence
and bullying threat thereof
is not fair patriarchal-matriarchal cooperative play
or therapeutic work
or sacred health vocation.

We may all share
our Matriarchal WombText Spaces,
Places with 4D EcoTherapeutic RealTime Seeds
for restorative justice
and for fear of paranoid lifeline
ego-mortifying LoseLose
monoculturing marginalization loss
of polyculturing global potential
for love-invested

We may retain

And we may retain

Beauty’s Integrity

Beauty,
like Truth
with Integrity,
is better seen
than told.

Is healthier discovered
than overstated bold.

 

I need to discover
communion with trees
as good and faithful Elder neighbors.

I prefer to grow them from hazel nuts
and peach pits
and apple seeds.

To notice these young
until old enough to shade me
and provide nurturing fruit,
to boldly slow down
Earth’s too-winded voices.

I want to rediscover
childlike communion,
ancient innocence
of therapeutic mutual insurance,

Discovery
for discovery’s cooperative entertainment sake
alone
yet also health discovery
rediscovering together.

Like infants
learning how to see again
because we were too blinded
by birth just yesterday
to understand differences
between cooperative multigenerational beauty
and competing monocultural ugly,
between discovering Truth sight
and healthing sounds,
choice winds and climate voices
and False unhealthy pathologies,
tsunamis,
HisACanes.

Promise of long-term ego adventures
yet without even active hope
for short-term healthing powers
of ecobeauty’s entertaining ventures.

Beauty,
like Truth
and CooperativeInvestment Integrity,
told boldly polypathic,
yet also seen healthy
and heart wealthy polyphonic,
both inside ego-climates
and outside Beauty
as Truth-Integrity.

 

We notice NegativEnergy
with secular grief.
But integrate how it also boldly informs
sacred gratitude
through PositivEnergy Democracy focus
on beautiful nutritious Truths
and truthful healthing Beauties.

Like trees,
and innocent children,
and rainbows.

Beauty greets
true integrity
when outdoors,
like indoors,
not only looks and sounds restorative,
but also smells
and tastes
nutritiously ego-ecotherapeutic.

Like Mother Trees
and DNA nuts and RNA seeds,
octave-fractal rainbows,
double-binding
bleeding-breeding
YangHere with YinNow.

 

Beauty,
like healthy Truth
with wealthy Integrity,
is better seen
than told,
and self-predicted,
predicated,
propogandized,
propagated.

True integrity
is healthier discovered,
and outside awed,
than overstated boldly
inside voices
gossiping just among ourselves.

Health Harvesting

Life seems
at times,
sometimes chronically usual
and sometimes more critically unusual,
Life seems to see a too large familial
and/or global space
between Winning outside less
and not Losing inside more,

Life unfolds feelings
differentiating between usually
and just sometimes
would be a healthier Win
for anger management
and depression
and manic bipolar issues,
polemics,
bipolarities Left against Right
too LoseLose negatively dissonant,
disassociating from authentic
integrity
health-wealth identity.

Yet,
in our next moment,
claustrophobic narrow ways
between Winning freedom and light
and not also Losing life and love
unveils a culturally treacherous walk.

A personal yet also political and economic walk
through a narrowing last second
in LeftBrain dominating Time
reincarnating EarthClimates

All, or most,
Either winning or losing
attachment to detachment
attacking
future life of humble sufficiency Left-Right fortune,
seen through Earth’s timeless creation RightBrain lens
casting past death
of Ego’s immanently inaccurate
decomposing misfortune
of untimely WinLose events.

Exhausting WinWin divine inspiration,
finding ribboned rivers of YangHeaded hope
between hearing Winning dipolarity
yet also not seeing bipolar Losing
what Sacred EarthTime never RightBrain autonomously owned
or could eternally LeftBrain co-redeem alone
while co-advocating creative
regenerative
creolizing
transubstantiations
between healthy Left
and wealthy WiseElder Matriarchal Right.

Bicameral life seems to see a larger revolutionary space
between Winning outside time more ecologically healthy
and not Losing inside sacred place
more theologically multicultural wealthy.

Crazy Cosmological Eighths

Weighty governance,
to optimize bicamerally Timeless Truths,
integrate bilateral Ways,
to health-grow binomial ego-eco
in-out

and remains DNA
fractal stuff
of ZeroZoned Taoism,
4D RealTime Zen,
FourSeasoned Permaculture Design
Four spiraling ecosystemic points
in Work and WinWin Play That ReConnect
healthy systemic-game restoring justice,
local with global ego-ecotherapeutic peace.

Wow,
dear,
now that’s an opening anthem!

To and for and of
These synergetic healthing ends,
conjoining Taoist WiseElder LeftBrain language
within Asher Miller’s Left with Right conclusions
pursuing Resilience of Health:

OK,
fine,
my pedantic honey spot,
but this really better be good
after all this too-wordy LeftBrain build-up:

We LeftEgo live here with now,
while RightEco-growing our next WinWin Paradise.

Don’t you mean Rapture,
dearest?

We lack sufficient YangWin–YinLose time
to deductively waste reductively decomposing away
in Ego-Over-Eco evolutionary Life/Death models

Yet we could
and probably healthy should,
inductively take and make our YinSquared

Revolving CoEnlightenment Designs,
ways,
means,
truths,
life,
light
Commons-squared
as cooperative patriarch
of Earth’s
spiral-cubed Gaian Hypothesis
Original ZeroZone WinWin Intent.

I don’t know, dear,
that’s a lot of iconically ergodic
zeroism,
for a simple YinSquared WuWei Taoist
like we.

We simultaneously oppose
LeftBrain enculturing Either/Or dominance,
and propose
Left with Right
Yang with Yin
equals yin-squared
equals Zero-squared fractal
co-empowering WinWin.

We think and act healthy
ego-locally
as also eco-globally
ecomorphic centering,
creolizing,
morphing,
ego-eco mutually acclimating.

We require governors,
including our own egos,
have clear health wellbeing vision,
polyculturing outcome strategies
with polypathic premiums
invested in resilience experimentation,
resonant-reiterating ZeroZone feedback
Left to Right to Left…
West to East to West…
Yang to Yin to Yang…
loops

Breathing toward integrative co-adaptation,
creolization,
ecomorphic co-empathic DNA-RNA resonance,
not so much LeftBrain colonization
and patriarchal RightWing supremacy.

We ego listen
with co-participants in organic life
to build co-operative relationships,
investments and asset WinWin co-operatives,
family and community health resilience,
together identify ego-eco deep learning
school and community WinWin priorities
for mutual engagement,
DNA co-facilitating imagination-visions
and RNA co-operative WinWin discernment,
life as mutual health skills planning.

We grow a clear health purposed 2020 vision,
not written in LeftBrain retributive dominating commandments
because truly resonant restoring matriarchal wellbeing,
beloved secular-solar
and sacred EarthGaia egos and communities,
and living planets

Are perennially dynamic
with four-square seasonal DNA-RNA feedback loops,
cooperative diversity of double-binding polyphonic
WinWin octaves,
co-acclimating creolic adaptations,
WinWin ecomorphic transformations,
nurturing future as past
resilient transubstantiations
of RightBrain and for LeftBrain
ZeroZone LifeWombs,
Sacred Revolutioning EarthTribes.

Was that good for you?

If it feels healthy to you.

Snail Trails and Rat Tails

My transportive
awesome Muse
speaks of a hiking trail
for an aging snail.

My communicative
wondrous music
is dancing choreography
for an ageless bee
coming.

 

I asked if I might speak
with the Editor in Chief
of my town’s daily GoodNews Bulletin…

No.
I do not have an appointment…

Yes.
It is regarding GoodNews
for his local variety show
he hopes to continue WinWin Gaming
hereabout
and OtherWise.
Golden Rules
and governing Ratios of trust
over active distrust,
investing in PositivEnergy
over
Negative BadNews…

Once inside this CEO’s office,
I thank him for his patriarchal time
and then spin a matriarchal web
yarn.

I ask him if he is interested
in partnering with our EcoSchool Academy
to harvest youth-led Green investigative
journal telling stories
about health v RedHot pathology,
Public Health.

He asks me,
Why and how do you see
Public, or even Private, Health
sufficiently and necessarily Green?
It seems to me,
he circuitously continues,
our circulatory nutrition systems
are red going in
and mysteriously blue respiration
breathing bilaterally out
Left and Right synergetic
Elder Right with Younger Left dynamic
old spiritual and new natural EarthTribes
of RNA then DNA extended family enscriptions
for Earth CoRevolutionary Survivors
rock rolling
MotherEarth Matriarchal SpaceTime,
4D RealTime
WinWin GoodNews Bulletins.

This sounds EgoSelf-serving,
now that I rewind and wind and wind,
and perhaps too eco-centrically webbed
for LeftBrain dominants
to fractally follow
patriarchally along,
but that might explain
the Editor in Chief’s
GoodNews circulatory problems,
pathological trends
too Red for resilient Right with Left Wings,
and actively cooperating feet.

Predictably,
Chief Editor
asks about who is paying for all this
and how will these stories
grow ad revenue.

So I use an example
of a real world,
not fake news,
journalistic activism scenario–
a Thought Experiment
for cooperative dialectal two.

Students, in secure pairs,
could survey Cliff St. neighbors
to find out how many renters
and homeowners
have had rodent issues this winter.

Why is that a reasonable question to ask?

My oldest son lives there
with hungry river rats
eating his refrigerator
and his stove
wiring.

He has noticed
extermination winter service trucks
and growing trends
frequently about accumulating private health investment,
and steel over concrete
double-barriers non-absorbing,
more appropriate to resist
our four-legged too friendly pests.

I see Public Health
but I still don’t see Green Activism.

The rats
and their terrorized roommates
probably see this as a Green cooperative ownership concern,
health-supporters avoiding way too much BadNews bloodshed issues,
competing and losing investments and assets,
nests and tails and pet paws
with their side-by-side neighbors,
hoping to spend less of little competitively-gained green goodnews
they have left for food,
now rodent-devoured,
and new wind-poured refrigerators
and new solar-fueled stoves
autonomously,
because of an unspoken
and, to date,
not noticed Public Pathology expense
of anti-cooperatively owned
WinWin Green
seen as too Red RightWing economic
and political
LeftBrain dominant
WinLose issues.

Which sells BedNews and GoodNews papers
and larger circulations
increase values for local ad co-investors,
Especially from exterminator for-profits
and neighborhood revitalization non-profits,
and public and private health services.

And possibly Green STEM EcoSchools
and PositivEnergy Cooperative Corporations
and CoHousing Developers,
and Rodent Rights Advocates,
and Tenant Organizers,
and Attorneys
and Domestic Cleaning Services
and appliance recyclers
and Environmental Protection Agencies…

You had me with BadNews exterminators.
So what’s in this for you?

My oldest son and I
co-own his home.
While he has no frig
or stove
he comes to my place to eat and eat.

That young man
and his girl
can EAT!

And, I’m paying for half
of our exterminator contract
with my Social Security income.
Why do you ask?

Because if you have no skin in this WinWin Game,
then I don’t know if I can trust
your lack of ego-investment.

For me,
to be a Green 2020 Health Revolutionary
is awesomely resonant wealth
of Earth’s Bilateral Resilience,
sung through my-our DNA’s past co-investments
regenerating Earth’s EcoSchool History.

 

My reincarnating
awesome DNA-RNA Muse
unfolds hiking snails
merging ancient four-seasoned trails.

My inside music
wondrous bilateral communication
dances bee language
of ageless choreography
becoming co-operators.

Dear New with Old England

Dear Local Boards of EcoSchool Education,
Departments of Environmentally Protected Walkable Transportation,
Cooperatively Maintaining Public-Private Works
and STEAM Play
and WinWin GreenGames,
Hysterical Historical Associations,
Social Work Departments of Climate Restorative Therapy,
and Public Health-Wealth Departments:

Did you leave anyone out dear?

Just the usual lower non-elite 10 to 50 percent
still graduating from WinLose counter-evolutionary
Right Might Fights
secularized deductive-only school.

You mean LeftBrain
Business As Ego Terrifying schools?

I’m not sure, really.
I never fully experienced
an urban capital-infested
RightWing militarizing
WinLose patriarchal
anti-WinWin matriarchal
BadFaith school.

Because you choose to see YangHere
with YinNow,
within breathed out
as manna ingested
co-invested eco-in.

Bread womb of life inside memories
as breath of matriotic love
outside images.

Anyway,
please continue with your Letter to English Editors
of Town Bulletins, dear.
Although why you need to write everything outloud
in strings of regenerative ecologic
while inside singing and dancing in matriotic octaves
is so much spiral dynamics transporting
and more fun,
I cannot polyphonically imagine.

OK, continuing–
Most of our composting neighborhoods
arose before oil and gas burners
mechanized transportation
for both domestic song and dance tranquility
and international militarized terror.

For this epic creolizing-colonizing reason,
we could enjoy a deeper learning opera network,
polypathically useful operations
for polyculturing healthy highways
and byways.

For economic co-invested reasons
we could choose more walkable
and bike-enabling neighborhoods,
more child and extended family friendly.

We could affordably choose
some narrower edible chestnut tree-lined lanes,
intersecting frequently
in community cooperative gardening squares
and WinWin organic Green triangles
and peace restorative pentagons

Rather than continuing to choose
last gasps
of a more drive-thru-able
stinky mechanical WinLose devolving city.

For political and social communication reasons,
we might better cooperatively own and manage
convenient and safer,
better nurtured pedestrian
street transporters
with warmer and cooler
and more therapeutic communicating destinations
nearby.

For good faith reasons
we could choose natural neighborhood homeo-nonpathological drugstores,
more outdoor ecoschools
and after-school Green STEM projects
and Green STEAM repurposing arts
and reforesting sciences,
more organic and locally-grown grocery stores
and nutritionally walkable transporting ecosystems.

For good health reasons
we could cooperatively choose
to place,
adjacent to bad breath congesting highways
leading out to bioregionally giant
polluted feeder interstates,
cooperative ecoschool
and goodfaith community gardening grids
of humane-breathable streets
for solar electric streetcars,
bikeways,
ample horse-powered bark and repurposed chip,
stone and hand-made brick ways
to make our healthy peddled and walked
therapeutic rounds.

We could choose transport and communication channels
flowering with urban reforesting projects and policies
and planting/harvesting co-investment procedures
for eco-cooperative living,
smart deep growing therapeutic residents
with repurposing life vocations
in local downtown ZeroZone permaculturing centers,
eco-centric port authorities
for feeding healthy mouths
like our Sacred Thames River
flowing outstream
to Atlantic
and Pacific,
Indian and Northern

WiseElder surfing Seas,
seasons New Moon drenched in dualdark Soul
and FullMoon pulled toward
climate ecotherapies.

We could choose
to guard against merely drive-thruable cities
against double-binding future-past
eco-walking climate ego-change
for reducing waste fueled overconsumption.

We need not always choose
individual ownership of mechanized technologies
over cooperatively enabling
diverse and re-acclimating resilient respiratory response
to future indoor-outdoor climate pathologies.

We could choose to not suck in
further competitive WinLose public-private investments
for monoculturing solutions
far short of polycultural deep sacred-secular learning
resonant resident resolutions.

We could choose
co-arising secular Left and sacred Right
ecological-theological healthy initiatives
to reforest
New and Old England’s most resonant
historical resilience.

Too many words, dear.

How many
too many?

Go for ZeroZone eruption
into Wondrous Beauty
and Secular Awe.

I was.
I did.
I am.

Well then,
great and beautiful transition done, honey.
Now who are we?
And where are we cooperatively becoming?

You are insatiable.

Only with co-arising you,
dearest.

When I Woke Up This Morning

I opened to my internet this morning
to see an icon of a woman
under bannered “News”

And thought it couldn’t be important
or it would be a picture
of a white patriarch.

I opened to my weather web
this mourning,
to behold an icon of a Goddess
knowing we continue Gaia weeping
important fatalities
if only to each other stormy wise.

I opened to my epic romance history
this morning,
to behold all-embracing love
of eco-passion seeking,
mysteriously surrendered,
absorbing beloved fascinations.

Secularized WinLose promises devolving
sacred threatening to decompose
all Nature’s right with left ways,
sacred-eco with saintly-ego.

I woke up this dolphin breathing morning
to know our spiritual breaded Manna
upside down,
inside eco-naturally Out,
as breathing in
toward Earth’s natural nurture.

I woke up this eco-systemic morning
to turn environmental sciences
into wickedly complex magic
cooperatively owning wondrous jazz
improvising rapture.

I woke up this morning
to this eco-political WinWin bargain
liberating from WinLose doldrums
of every day toward nondualistic night.

I woke up to light this morning
this dualistic life
marooned in WinLose devolution
through patriarchal colonization theories
that might makes fight right.

I woke up to dualdark this night
in non-dualistic secular/sacred epic consciousness,
marooned in WinWin delight
matriarchal creolizing RightBrain experiences
eco-nurturing flows
bilaterally WiseElder
EgoLeft with Sacred Eastern Right.

I woke up to a walkable
and bike ride-able
city this morning
nutritionally sufficient transporting
PositivEnergy Democracy CoOperators
investing in healthy soul-soil systems,
with zero zone inventory.

I woke up to foot and pedal
arm and paddle
this morning
investing billions of empowering hours
with goat and llama and horse powered
construction
and transportation
and animal and cart
and bicycle and kayak
maintenance and repair
cooperative co-investments.

Well,
I even woke up this morning
and we were on my mind,
repurposing
recycling cafes and gardens and farms,
extending healthy family
WinWin infrastructural networks.

Resilient
restorative agape ego/eco-systems
weathering colonizing fuel spikes,
confronting patriarchal over-investment climates,
thriving past this GreatYang Recession.

I woke up this morning
to an economic ecological system,
socially
politically
WinWin environmentally resonant.

I got up this morning
on a nurturing transportation system
WinWin walkably linked
with cooperative internal soul investments
supporting land
and sea
and air crisis therapies
invested completely
in long-term ZeroZone resilience.

I walked and talked out this morning
with metaphoric resonance
for ego/eco-consciousness
RightBrain felt,
intuited,
internal/external bilaterally flowing,
epically erupting,
abundantly transporting,
accessible, if matriarchally walkable, health.

I opened to my network this morning
to see a woman icon
under bannered BadNews

And thought it must be important
or it would be another fake news picture
of a white patriarch
speaking into a one-way microphone.

April Love

We began our late winter do-over
with a dirty ceramic bowl
during a too-much snowstorm.

Well, no,
obviously that’s not where this rebirth story begins
but neither is a cream-colored
and clean
bowl
where this story ends.

Anyway,
I look at Matilda’s mac and cheese bowl
from the RaggedyAnn frosty night before
while an early morning April Fool’s snow blanket
arises perfectly
peacefully
majestically
and really too wetly
outside our kitchen windows.

I wash his late night
and lunch-time dishes all the time,
with grateful precision.

Not all the time,
but frequently,
poignantly,
yet he washes his dishes
without touching Matilda’s or mine.

Why would our Cooperative WinWin Gamer
not see how inappropriately WinLose
this is?

Never mind about disrespectful
and possibly selfish.
How does this lack of awareness
betray us,
a more or less functional
resilient cooperative health service unit?

What does this mean
and what is his message
through medium
of round crusty artifact?

I do his dishes
because I”m washing dirty dishes
so I don’t have to look at them,
or smell them,
and so they don’t attract pests
when they are not well rinsed
by RaggedyAnn frosty nubian princesses.

Is this because I am a responsible adult
and a parent of hurt children?
And he is not?

And, if so,
then why would our WinWin Gamer
assume it’s OK
to not act like a responsible young adult
and Cooperative Gaming Sibling?

Facilitator,
both teacher and regenerational student
of healthy resilient life-skills.

Is this message ageist,
and/or anti-parental?
Downsides of Peter Panism,
Eastern Innocence
without strong ecocentrically mature roots,
yet.

So I asked him
about why leaving dirty bowls is OK
for him
regardless of who started it.
And we talked cooperatively WinWin
together
about why they aren’t so great for me,
and possibly us.

That helped us
both to see ourselves
and each other
in some ways
newborn clean bowl differently.

It was about then
this magical early spring snowstorm
faded toward partly sunny
and shoulder-warmer.

Potlatch Cafe for Gardeners

Dear Covenant to Empower Children, Inc.

I was in a Potlatch CoHousing Cafe
just the other repair-invested day
for both ego and eco therapy.

Our host introduced
this Potlatch SkillShare event
speaking to himself:

The less I share skills and resources
on cooperative terms
of common educational PositivEnergy endeavor,

The more plutocratically powerful
anti-social logic
of private learning affluence
elitism
entitlement
sexism
racism
tumors growing within healthier democracy,

Cooperative
paid-forward ownership
for restoring justice,
justice
as cooperatively-owned peace.

So it was
I thought of you,
covenanted to caregiving
and not corporate profit,
your mission to restore therapeutic health
to under-nourished children
and their not-full-healthing families.

Broken souls
with broken belongings,
longings for everything therapeutic cafes
and lending libraries
for computers and karaoke machines,
musical instruments and microphones,
speakers and costumes,
clothing and furniture,
bicycles and toys,
stories and songs
therapeutically
non-violently shared.

Repaired
ecotherapeutic co-housing and garden fixers
to extend family neighborhood co-responsibilities.

Cooperatively organized
by non-violent therapeutic innovators,
local restorative justice administrators,
nonprofit co-housing and community gardening
and nutritious interior-exterior landscaping,
inside-outside nurturing design,
cooperatively-invested and self-managing families
growing neighborhood organizations.

Covenants to prosper
tool and toy and school libraries,
co-housing recreation skill-sharing centers,
ego-ecotherapeutic non-violent churches and synagogues
and temples and courthouses
and cooperatively-owned city halls
co-investing in ego/ecotherapeutic businesses
and vocations.

Ego/eco-therapist interns
including skilled do-it-ourselfers,
professional hurt child cooperative parents
with childcare giving repair businesses,
apprentices interested in synergetic
therapy-related careers
in neighborhood planning and co-design,
outdoor installations and ego/eco-evaluations
of health care giving as love receiving.

This Potlatch Cafe and Garden
was multiculturally filled
to multigenerational capacity
with innovative self and other fixers
cooperatively learning
about facilitating ego/eco-repairs.

Which brings in new employee-owners
to local repair incubation businesses
and empowerment cafe members
undertaking and overtaking cooperatives
for ecopolitical health-wealth restorations.

Healthy keys to continually growing
Potlatch CoHousing Cafes
are those held by community WinWin
outdoor-indoor entertainment innovators,
street clowns and village green sages,
parental fools and innocent teacher healers
in love with therapeutic life.

Covenants to CareGive Children
and their cooperative co-housed families
coordinated and ecotherapeutically operated
by established hospitality foundations
like local cooperative-restorative climate-care governments
and nonprofit empowerment missioned organizations
committed to potlatch provide
investments and therapeutic non-violent staff
and volunteer intern cooperative familycare members
to coordinate co-housing residents
and neighborhood transporters
and young cafe and garden after-school volunteers.

Covenants for Healing
could grow cooperatively owned therapeutic cafes
and gardens
and multicultural multigenerational homes
accessible co-housing options
for nurturing community residents

So repairing,
rather than discarding,
people,
plants,
and things,

Incubating interdependent potlatch stewards
becoming post-millennial,
WinWin nutritional
for covenant-holders
and covenant-constituents
with secular-sacred dipolar co-arising faith
in PositivEnergy Democracy
for growing neighborhood
Potlatch Cafes
in CoRedemptive Gardens.

With warm hope
you are enjoying this child empowering day
