The Fourth Principle

The Fourth Principle of Win-humanity/Win-Earth
Permaculture Design (D. Holmgren):
“Apply self-regulation and accept feedback.”
might be understood as an implied corollary
of the Golden Rule.

Why?
The sins and blessings of reactive patriarchy
and responsive matriarchy
are revisited by children
unto the seventh generation.

If we are to develop healthy and robust democratic self-governance
then we must grow cooperative ownership and stewardship of feedback systems,
especially from those whose outcomes are least robust
among our slowly extending global family
of interdependent organisms
and our sacred natural environments.

Feedback comes in two spiraling circles,
virtuously healthy-positive,
which often has some form of symbiotic, synergetic, metamorphic dimension
to love’s transformative evolution,
and viciously pathological-negative
caste-preservative devolution.

Resilient self-regulation requires of us
to anticipate and accept both polarities of feedback.

To welcome both kinds, especially when they are offered together,
within some nondualistic cobinary frame
of appositional dipolar reference,
to neurosystemically experience gratitude for both
painful risk and pleasure opportunity,
organic life’s apparent blessings and curses.

So, whether Republican or Democrat,
or something Liberating Green in-between,
an important litmus test for the savvy political consumer
and tax-paying producer
of national and state and local leadership,
is mature stewardship experience of more perfect unions

Which we sometimes ignore
at our own disgruntled peril,
and at further peril “unto seven generations”
of potentially robust
healthy win/win
polyculturally planning
self-governing regenerators

Bodhisattva PeaceWagers and CoInvestors
in Salvific GoodNews CoRedemption:

  1. How has this candidate for public office
    demonstrated and grown mature self-regulation
    in personal and public economic and political empowering life?

Essentially a question to compare cooperative ownership
and compassionate governance
that resists rabidly competitive elitism,
upper-caste preserving
anthropocentrism
nationalism
and narcissism.

  1. How has this candidate demonstrated growth
    in win+win bipartisan capacity
    to co-empathize,
    co-intelligently learn from,
    and become grateful for,
    positive and negative feedback
    in personal and public economic and political life?
    How might this compare
    to your own trauma-informed life,
    both organic body natural
    and sacred mind spiritual?

Perhaps economically kleptocratic
and politically autocratic public persons
we have been electing and hiring
to apply self-regulation and accept feedback
are giving us to-be-expected answers
to the absence of wiser public sector questions,
too pathologically short-term focused
and anthropocentrically narrow-minded

Questions unmindful of Fourth Principle self-governing potential
for more robust Golden Rule healthy democracy outcomes
unto the seventh win/win regeneration.

David Holmgren, Co-Originator of the Permaculture Concept, reflective of the Gaia Hypothesis.

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
smells
tastes
touched by sacred EarthMother’s safety.

When Evangelists Invite Fascism

Paul Tillich wrote
“nationalism hates and must always hate Judaism and prophetic Christianity.”

When he spoke of nationalistic patriotism
he was thinking of fascism,
as the logical conclusion
of anthropocentrism

More loyal to a specific supremacist space and time
than faithful to polyculturally interdependent history
of love life’s regenerative revolution.

Nationalism too quickly devolves into rivalry
of Win-InCaste v Lose-OutCaste
zero-sum gamesmanship

Elitist triumphalism
of narrow-minded Chosen People
rather than WinAnthro/WinEarth nonzero-sum
cooperative economies
of politically co-empowering organic lovers.

Tillich’s ‘prophetic’ Judeo-Christian
would find U.S. nationalistic evangelism
anti-prophetically unredeeming,
in striking contrast to scripture’s
radical “God is love”
and
“For God so loved the [entire] world”

Is not
In-Caste preserving
“if They win, then We lose”
perpetrating
puppets of monopoly games
playing zero-sum militarized capitalism

Preparing the unenlightened way
toward more viral triumphalistic cults,
explicitly anti-Semitic
and anti-polytheism
and anti-pantheism
and anti-historical-cultural progress
toward health-informed norms
and safe polyamorous values,
so anti-pleasure by root-chakra means
other than,
for reproduction purposes only,
missionary position
manly active penetration
womanly passive reception
heterosexual expression
for married couples only
after the kids are sleeping.

Frustrated “Christian” fundamentalism
is threatened
by faith in multicultural compassion
healthy democracy inviting
hospitality toward strangers,
loving enemies.

An authentically impassioned and joyful
peace-making Christian evangelist
spreads WinAnthro/WinEarth good gospel creation news
through cooperative teaching
while co-empathically listening

Mentoring bodhisattva collaboratives
about how we can grow this compassion species
toward mutual transubstantiating holiness

With resilient transformative thrival skills
and nothing at all to do with lip service
to an “Our Stuff Don’t Stink”
but yours does,
a Chosen People caste-privileged creed.

When non-prophetic evangelists
examined Donald Trump’s pretentions
as U.S. Presidential potential,
and declared his intentions for the patriotic elite as “pure,”
that meant purely demonic WinUs v LoseThem nationalism

Mute about the prophetic Judaism
of the polyamorous Gospels.

Christians, Jews, and those Islamic-terrified,
must comprehend
and resist
and declaim any notion that Republican Nationalist WeWin-SoYouLose ecopolitics
is anything less than anti-Messianic

WeWin-OnlyIf YouAlsoWin,
is co-redemptive,
globally enlightened,
ecologically accurate
compassion eco-politics.

The democratization of world-wide-webbed love
is a huge mystery of peak spiritual experience,
communication for communion,
organic regeneration for sacred reconnecting
again and again and again
Earth’s healthy resilience wins
and also anthropological ‘pure’ pleasure
and ‘loyal’ passioned wealth.

To call the cult of irreligious Win v Lose nationalism
healthy democracy Win/Win patriotism
is to substitute InCaste Evangelism
for blessed are the poor in Spirit
OutCaste Christianity

Monotheistic colonization
is the Way of idolatrous elitism
and the Truth of weaponized fascism

Taking out a Death contract against healthy human nature
to hit absolute zero
bulls-eye
bottom-line
LoseAnthro/LoseEarth absence of love life’s potential

Promising to anti-prophetically gloat
about absent-mindedly fiddling about
while Earth burns

Anthropocentric hubris
sin
missing the mark,
preparing a vast anti-all-Others absence of love
for continuing richly polycultural climates
of future generation health,
by denying
ignoring
neglecting
abusing
degenerating climate pathologies.

If you are familiar with the Wharton School,
as is Donald Trump
and his considerably too-gluttonous billionaire CEO companions,
then you would probably know
you can slap a lipstick index
of economic resilience
on a chauvinistic pig
in an elitist Winner-Take-All partisan pen,
but it will not really look
or work any better,
and certainly won’t taste
or smell any healthier
or purer
or feel more loyal,
or even tangentially patriotic,
in anthropologically prophetic hindsight.

Civilizing Savages

I stumbled over Paul Tillich’s reflection
on the Messiah’s other Great Commission.

The Great Commission we learned in Sunday School
was to go out and convert the barbarians
and savages to Christianity.

Yet this other Great Commission feels like a necessary prerequisite,
like requiring Statistics 1
before wandering on into the further abstractions
of long-term probabilities
and improbabilities
that savages could become barbarians
and barbarians become pagans
and pagans become animated civilians
of pantheistic inter-religious wildness,
as recovered by anthropocentric
monotheistic Statistics 2.

Tillich’s version of St Matthew (5:48) reads
“You must be all-inclusive as your heavenly Father is all-inclusive.”

Jesus has been exegeting perfect love
as favorably contrasted against not-so-perfect love,
and Their conclusion summarizes with
YHWH is Earth’s perfection of all-inclusive love

So this is also our humane divining destiny,
this profound all-inclusiveness,
which would seem to necessarily include
nature worshipping wildness
and MightMakesRight barbarians
within us all.

But, what I wonder,
from my flawed redemptive perspective,
is how could becoming all-inclusive perfection of love
progress anything less than taught by God the enlightening Father
and engaged by Gaia the co-empowering Mother?

These two faces
co-arising nondual all-inclusive love
of hunters and gatherers,
the competitive Patriarchal
and the cooperative Matriarchal
barbarians

Universal-Yang/unitarian-Yin
win/win
bicamerally civilizing Left cognitive minds
inside Right intuitive wilderness bodies.

To perceive oneself as one of the holy civilized
rather than barbaric unwashed
seems to deny indigenous adaptation,
pantheistic adoption,
co-opting cooperative co-passion
extracting from what was polyculturally peaceful
all-inclusively before anthropocentric civilization.

To comprehend myself as civilizing
speaks first to maturing all-inclusive love,
including all the YangNature and YinSpirit
of my wilderness heritage

Embracing my own TerribleTwos savagery,
remembering adolescent hormonal waves
of public supremacy v private intimacy.

To this day,
I must eat when I am hunger,
drink when I am thirst,
sleep when I feel tired
of all disintegrating opportunities.

This healthy development of all-inclusive love
includes the first clue
how to share good co-redeeming news
to be found within every organic tradition,
every rhythmed transition
of which we are each a necessary muse,
but never emotionally sufficient
apart,
in our savage through civil maturation,
co-passionately extending acclimation.

Holistic spirited, growing pantheistically inclusive,
holonic co-redemption excludes prejudicial partiality

A process
in which every interdependent sequence
(stage, frame, network, co-acclimating set)
and inter-relational sample
re-presents the organic whole
of all-inclusive sacred holiness.

A synergetic progress
toward 100% domesticated Yang non-zero probability
that any dynamic state (stage, frame, paradigm) will recur
AND
zero-sum improbabiity
that any co-acclimating organic state
will recur empty of Yintegrity.

Perfectly all-inclusive bilateral passion
like YHWH’s win/win
Gaia Hypothesis

Holy co-acclimation,
from RightElder brain stem savage
Either LeftYang wealth
or RightYin health

Out-caste or in-caste
dissociative identity disformation,
through barbaric LeftBrain verbal monotheistic dominance
versus Elder RightBrain nonverbal pantheistic prominence
of adolescent coming of bicamerally intelligent age

Open to belonging
in longing
for more redemptive cooperations,
all-inclusive polyamorous acclimations

Organically responsive animists
long before
reactive irreligious monotheists

Maturing toward more all-inclusive Left/Right
co-arising Sage/Muse nonduality
of profoundly integral Win/Win love,
within as without,
ego-ethotic as eco-erotic.

Reuniting wilderness-loving civilians
with universally divine inspirations,
organically indigenous acclimations
becoming even healthier democratic news
about both private and public co-passion trends
and co-investment probabilities.

From this view,
it seems curious that culture influencers,
like Popes,
would look back through vast histories of spirited experience
and recover only platonic memories
of God’s priestly invisible hand
and mind
within peak experience Sage passioned heads
but not Muse pleasured bodies

Especially within our long co-acclimating history
of mother-wombs nurturing perfect all-inclusive love,
maturing indigenous infants into savage two year olds

Then letting maturation go
through barbarically wild
hormone-drenched adolescence
pregnantly predicating co-redemptive adulthood
of all-inclusive genders
and polyamorous gender preferences.

What could be more priestly stewardship,
and yet also prophetic promise,
than redeeming blood-baptism’s wilderness birth?

Nurturing healthy animistic support
through all our holy all-inclusive
neurodiverse stages
within WinLeft-WinRight

Bicamerally co-arising
barbarically savage peak experiences
extending all-inclusive love,
transforming the Bodhisattva’s non-othering
Great Inclusive Commission.

I Heard It Was True

“I guess it never was
The way I thought it was
I say this only just because
You never came to love

I guess it wasn’t so
Guess that’s how the story goes
You didn’t dig my flow
You didn’t dig my flow”
Maxwell, Welcome, Urban Hang Suite

I heard it was true,
though anonymous sources rightfully become suspect,
that Central Americans
increasingly feel that the U.S.
is a long punishing and hostile wilderness journey
on their way to more Promising Lands of Canada.

I heard it is true,
Americans, as a nearly whole,
way North and South
and Central in-between continents,
enjoy better access to health and safety,
especially for those without even a one-car garage,
more wealth of nurturing freedoms
and justices of equivalent synergetic exchange,
than they, at least some, often younger,
would hope to find in these devolving DisUniting States,
investing in mutual ass-ured destruction
disinvesting away from
mutual Win/Win
MindWealth/BodyHealth
delivering pleasure’s deep compassion.

I heard it was true,
that if all the U.S. homeless and hungry
not feeling quite so swell
were to occupy and recover
all the U.S. owned
and managed
and share-holder molested operations
in Mexico,
converting all those farms
and fossil-fueled energetic businesses
to cooperative ownership
and wealthyMind/healthyBody optimizing governance,
that Mexico would have an immigration solution,
and the U.S. would have a lack-of-immigration problem.

I heard it was true,
though it seems unlikely, I know,
that mid-eastern terrorists
are second generation entitled fundamentalists,
and their militarized and terrified parents
were first generation oil-revolution opportunists,
believing Allah may have brought deserts and drought
and internecine feeding upon each tribal other,
but Allah has redeemed all with His gift
of seemingly boundless, in that monotheistic time,
oil-drenched riches

Fundamentally filthy Win v Lose irreligious stuff
of competitive survivalist inhumane unnatural life
verses the losing remainder
of natural
ecological
love life.

I heard it was true
that if all those experienced with reversing desertification,
all Earth’s permaculture designers and ecotherapists
and cooperative incarnation incubators and midwives,
were to conjoin all the desperate young mid-eastern adults
to reverse traumatic climate trends
now producing deserts and drought, and mayhem

Toward reproducing plants and people
producing and consuming fields of grass and grains
and slow-flowing rivers,
cedar forests
and fertile food from healthier soils
devoid of ballistic landmines,
and planting solar panels and spiraling towers and wind turbines
shading and capturing vast sun’s radiant perfections,
then nightmares of terror
could become daydreams of planting
and fulfilling multicultural harvests.

I heard it was true,
but whether yes or no
I could not honestly say,
that if U.S. residents
were more mindful of what riches and potentials other nations
and cultures already have to share,
of how climate crimes cry out for climate health,
and if we disinvested from fear-mongered anxiety,
verging on paranoia,
about what other nations and cultures would deprive us of,
for lack of their own potential riches,
then this U.S. terrorist and immigration paranoia,
and perhaps European issues of similar RightWing ilk,
might become Earth’s cooperative ownership,
and Self-with-Other management,
unmitigated win/win
wealthyMind/healthyBody resolution,
producing more multiculturally transforming solutions
for all Earth’s polyamorous Tribes.

Neglecting Top v Bottom Lines

I worry we co-invest in big private and public corporate assault
on Earth,
on environmentalism,
on longer-term ecologic
and ecotherapy.

Really, honey?
That’s too bad.
Why not also see long-term assault
as the unintended outcome of short-term neglect
to give cooperative win/win care,
health nurturing behavior,
Golden Rule empowering economics,
like we learned in Sunday School stewardship class?

Well, yes, I guess I can see that.
And yet, responsibility for dispassionate neglect
is not the accountability I seek
for assault on climate health

Multicultural landscapes of regenerative, rather than degenerative, potential,
slow-grown compassion fertility,
organically resilient,
full color octaves of strong-hued eloquence,
resonance for future Earth reweaving regenerators.

I wonder if it helps
to remember that assault derives from learned fear-mongering critical-event behavior,
while neglect speaks to more chronically anxious systems
of over-investment in short-term corporal and corporate ego-inflation,
rather than short-through-long-term
mental/physical
ego/eco
inside/outside
bicameral/bilateral
regenerative therapeutic balance?

Win+Win thriving regeneration
health-care targets
big ego-corporate’s Win v Lose survivalist degeneration.

I think you give sins of anthropocentrism too much evil conspiracy credit
and not enough human neglect
of long-term ecological reward anticipation credit.
When positive growth
is measured only in producing accumulation of human wealth
for investors, taxpayers and shareholders,
without any thought to quantities of resources consumed
in exchange for this production,
this feeds further disvaluing neglect
of investment in caregiving and receiving
long-term consuming and producing
cooperative win/win woke up fullness.

You are reminding me
of all the corporations I have ever known
with four-generation Mission Statements
about their corporate Original Intent,
yet, at best, four-quarter profit-making projections,
positive budgetary outcome
wish lists.

And then, too,
we have the four-generation campaign promises
derived from public corporate officials’ ReGenerative Constitutional Intent,
yet, at best, a 6-year re-election cycle,
and more likely 4-year,
or even just 2.

Yes, we do seem to have a degenerative tension
between the post-revolutionary Constitution’s Original Intent
to keep this democratizing revolution going,
for cooperating with the healthy wealth of Earth
and our nation-state neighbors,
as diplomatically and economically possible,
and within our own multiculturing liberties and justices,
peaceful compassions and pleasures
re-acclimating
anticipation of bountiful peace
into diminished restraining tolerance
of un-ecological risk denial

Traumatizing dissociations
organic life-systems could never nutritionally celebrate,
tearing families from their homes,
children from their terrorizing/terrorized parents,
young adults from their malnourished
self-medicating
Defense Business As Competitively Usual

In neighborhoods
of not so neighborly
systemic trauma environments.

Democratizing embodied Constitutions
co-arise economic health
and political wealth

A healthcare ethos
human history could not engage,
much less sustain,
without the compassionately pleasing Other

Where sacred EarthTribe co-investment
in expansive democratization,
mental/physical healthcare maturation,
mutual acclimation,
creolization of Elite with NonElite co-passion

Are drawn with loops and poignant pointing dots
of periods and episodic commas

Deriving objectives for Earth’s co-arising health
and fertile wealthy prosperity

Rich iconic compost
for producing cooperative economic climates,
health empowering landscapes
less likely to neglect ecological values
when drawing economic corporate wisdom’s
co-operative

Prurient ThrowDown Interests

Last evening I noticed another disconcerting Trump headline.
This felt and smelled more like a deadline
for disintegration
than a lifeline toward integrity
of democratic health and prosperous safety

Happy front and more perfect center
in our US Constitution,
which I remember him swearing to protect
right before reassuring all of us
he is here to listen to everyone.

Republicans and Democrats and Libertarians and Greens,
and whatever other patriotic party affiliations
he might be able to discover
and learn from
on his new Presidential executive ordering journey
into twitterland.

Anyway,
the headline was about White House Rumblings
of an assault on the State legalized marijuana industry.

My first reaction
Why?
Why would a federal administration
that has just finished reassuring all fifty States
that where students poop and pee in school should,
by right, rest solely at the state level to regulate,
then,
almost in the next inordinate breath,
also send out this alarming message to all fifty States
that it has become a new federal health
and national safety defense issue
that my kids should prefer the alcoholic beverage industry
over the THC industry.

I’m still wrapping my brain around how that could possibly be defended,
construed,
framed,
promoted,
gullibly bought and stoned cold sold
as a consistent reading of
“listening to everyone”

About constitutionally protected federal rights
to health and safety,
to well-integrated,
cost effective,
consistent,
or at least sane public policy.

I believe it was a congressman,
and not a “prurient interest” judge,
who said he could not define pornography,
but he knew it when he saw it.

This Administration, to date,
has brought us our first nakedly twittering
rapacious President
in no way discomfited
by verbal abuse
or domestic motherland violence

And now his fascist federalist tendencies
begin to look more like jacking off in public,
like pursuing his personal prurient exhibitionist hate-mongering agenda
instead of paying even lip service
to his true mandate,
the compassionate health and safe happiness
Original Intent
of not only the U.S. Constitution,
but also the Bible he laid his irreligious
self-righteous
dominant hand on

Toilet twittering
is not an economic or political act of active listening
for a healthy democratic
and wealthy multicultural society
of humane and responsible citizenry

Doing our best to follow our Golden Rule intentions,
not led by Golden Ballroom pretentions,
to at least do no alcohol-buzzed harm,
cause no further caste-privileged trauma,
and, whenever and wherever possible,
to follow a path of health,
happiness,
and polycultural prosperity.

As for DT2 himself,
I suspect he would improve his governing outcomes
by easing off the Coke
and investing more in some reefer madness,
preferably while among a large
extended family picnic,
an authentic thanksgiving banquet.

But, DT2 aside,
this White House has already become the home of nakedly prurient interests,
rather than national and state health
and environmental safety policies
and procedures,
polyamorous planning and design,
rather than retributive reaction
and assault distraction
and misanthropic wall-building.

Prurient–marked by arousing
immoderate
unwholesome (unhealthy, unsafe, unredemptive, non-therapeutic)
investment in naked
sadistic
desire.

With pornographic performance,
we witness a whole lot of immodest sexual desire,
but with the current Executive Branch of addictive rape
and pillage performance,
we become unwillingly mesmerized
by a whole lot of immodest fear and war-mongering desire.

The rampant raging desire
to play Win-Lose 0-sum games
of naked entitlement for paternal supremacy
sadistically staged
on a WinAnthro/WinEarth
Constitutional and Biblical
polyamorous Original Intent
for a cooperatively living planet.

The key operative governance, administrative, executive skills,
word here is “unwholesome” v “wholesome.”
Certainly we aren’t intending to legislate what is
marked by arousing, sometimes even immodestly so,
but still wholesome investments
in swelling democratic desire.

Wholesome is about regenerative life
polyculturally inclusive evolution,
sacredly nurturing democracy’s organic revolution

Co-redemptive peak political experiences,
bipartisan safe,
healthy choices,
even as these will inevitably lead, sometimes,
on our best compassion and pleasure days,
toward spirit-expanding natural ecstasies.

This, to me,
and for my extending multi-generational,
multi-cultural family,
sounds more like a mandate to co-invest
in health and safety industries,
with or without THC,
rather than investing further in the prurient,
inebriated,
unwholesomeness
of a nakedly sadistic
toilet twittering
White-Supremacist Castle.

Swarming Raven Righteousness

Ravens swarm
above a railroaded manly path
I walk

With downriver pilgrims
through mortal silenced wilderness,
away from more dogmatic savagery

Deadly, I fear,
chattering
clattering
flapping righteous wings
roosting crones
stalking,
inviting history’s dry splattered bones
to continue back
toward forward

And so continue
with othered chatter
now fluttering and twittering
off right
on to left
cawing barren winter trees
warning mystery’s clawing concern

Not urgent
yet relentlessly hungry

Poignant memories
for eyes to see
ears to hear,
not follow

But walk along side
then back away,
leaping invisible borders
noted by naked trees,
silent witnesses
of paternal journey’s ravenous flight

Now squawking
stalking right side
and behind,
encouraging hubris to continue on
oil-spilled tracks

But not too far
for they have a place to show
much like rook voices sound
rushing early spring’s awakening brook

Streaming water chattering against rock,
fat rain too loud dropping
on scolding cold tin roof
shelter.

Rain comes
enjoying refound sounds
here to witness this black river
of clatter chatter
purifying ironed tracks

Ahead now,
growing
crowing across shivering river
through grey winter woodland

Raucous spell toward quiet left
pause to swell again
like summer’s nighttime crickets.

Crowded ravens regather
to cautiously
silently
suspiciously roost behind me,
watching

What trauma will pass
from upriver,
uptrack,
up desolate time’s revolution
hunting haunting mystery

Not urgent
aching dull memories
of starving othered bones
for breaking richer
deeper
quieter upriver fragile times

Pausing stormy visions
fleet fluttered reminders,
then off again

Flying right winged journeys
leaving left behind
to embitter
railroad walking mine.

Holy Earth Patriotism

What is patriotism to you?

Do you feel proud for national, and maybe cultural, virtues?
What about feelings of superiority?

Would you probably feel more,
or less,
proud of your nation
if we had exceptional health caring integrity?
Including physical
and mental
and spiritual
and natural
and democratic health?

What is nationalism?

Usually positive values about monocultural
monotheistic
monopolistic
monochromatic caste protection.

What is a resiliently good social value?

Not a disastrously bad anti-social disvalue?

Again?

Well, OK, whatever
falls into what we agree is not unhealthy
reversing rich polyculturally interdependent
wealth power with international others
health power over deadening climate despair.

Have we not had considerably too much experience
with national-cultural-religious superiority?
complexities
leading to toxic totalitarian parochialism,
irritatingly irreligious patriarchalism
pious patrimony
without any passionate matrimony

Why can’t we redefine patriotism
as organic EarthTribe’s
neurosensory compassionate maturity?

I suppose we could,
but maturity based on what standard of not immature?

Well, where do we now base national winning superiority
versus loser inferiority?

Some economists start with gross trends
in National Production.

Could we at least compare GNP to Gross National Consumption?
Maybe look at this prime producing/consuming ratio
across the past several years
of economic health care
resiliently re-connecting
sacred-mind = organic-body
wealth liberating and health conserving
co-investment.

So performance-based WholeEarth patriotism
rises and falls
with whether national production balances consumption?
Of what?

Of healthy bodies and wealthy minds, I would neuropsychologically guess.
But, I suspect robust inter-religious
compassion/pleasure patriotism
win/win mind/body virtues peak
where enlightened consumption
and empowering production
approach bilateral compassion,
AnthroMind/EarthBody
re-connecting wealth+health
planetary intersectional balance

Pleasing EarthTribe’s resonant peace,
not RightWing dissonant plunder,
neurosystemic trauma
reducing our interdependent web of sentient life
Mind-nurture/Body-nutrition
passion+pleasure,
panentheistic peace warriors.

So you suggest re-rooting narcissistic nationalism
through a more EarthJustice patriotic
cooperative polyculturing
inter-religious identity,
more mature win/win health caring
mind-song and body-dance resolutions

More robust and resiliently trauma-informed
nationalVoice/internationalChoice
for resilient EarthMothering,
non-Othering,
sacred regenerativity.

Because sacred regenerative values,
rather than desecrating degenerative disvalues,
invite increases in healthy multicultural relationships
and wealthy co-invested transactions,
while nationalistic anthro-superiority sparks caste privileged
racism and elitism
xenophobia and entitled predation
enslavement and colonization
rape
divestment
abuse and neglect
disassociation

Disowning yesterday’s alien
wild
indigenously animistic
erotic savage
still passionately pleasuring
within last night’s peak patriotic/matriotic
co-empathic dreams.

Nationalistic patriotism suboptimizes
inclusive peak spiritual/natural re-connecting
experiences
re-ligioning
re-connecting cooperative opportunities
for peaceful body-health/mind-wealth
nondualistic redevelopment

All Earth’s organic tribes
inter-religiously emerge
Holy panentheistic Wisdom
engaging cooperative Business As Usual
impassioned pride
in shared Golden Rule wealthy purpose
healthy meaning

When internationally peaking
deep ecologically enriched climates
enlighten passionate polycultures
empowering pleasure’s
multigenerational neurosensory
warm well-moisturized
good-faith
good-humored
re-memory

Ecological health,
nonpartisan cooperative wealth,
grow with multi- and poly-cultural win+win creolization,
not win v lose colonization

Patriotically producing
and matriotically consuming
rebalancing Gaia Hypothesis outcomes;
while monotheistic patriarchalism produces
caste preservation trauma
racism and sexism
and anthro-hubris climate anxiety
depleting health care in-coming
unsustainable ecocidal out-goes.

Co-responsibility nurtures re-ligioning integrity,
just as cultural elitism accelerates illusions
of intellectual and ethical superiority
supporting short-sighted competitions for short-term profits

Harming EarthTribe’s failing to thrive
ecosystemic passion+pleasure players

Neurosystemic
chronic anthropocentric anxiety,
anti-ecological patriarchalism,
capital-headed monstrous monotheism

Rather than inter-religious peace-fulfilling
when healthy growth always
and everywhere re-invests
toward enlightened crown
and empowering root-systemic
panentheistic Gaia Hypothesis
producing and consuming
sacredly organic density
integrity
acuity.

Nationalism grows antipathic unhealthy distrust
when we need to grow co-empathic wealthy trust
of inclusive inter-religious liberation,
mutually revered
win/win conserving creolization,
rather than patriot-idolized
monotheistic colonization.

As cooperative EarthPeace globally emerges
we could choose to play Win/Win
long-term co-investment games
with more multiculturally mediating
passion/pleasure
wealthy/healthy
LiberalMind/ConservingBody
polytheistic non-Othering
patriotic EarthMothering

Interdependent listening
and compassion expands
across oceans and EarthJustice internets.

So what is your idea of true patriotism again?

EarthPride and humane humility
of and for resiliently regenerate climates
of polyculturally robust non-sectarian co-investment
over degenerate
dissonantly dissociative
too-monoculturally segregating
inferiority of anthro-caste privileged
unnaturally dispirited
anti-ecofeminism

Self-pardoning
irreligious
elitist intellectual and unethical entitlement rights

Self-righteously punishing
irreligiously monotheistic supremacy
disenfranchising green ecofeminist prophets
actively hoping to restore
EarthMother’s panentheistic mind/body peace

Now informed by RightWing systemic trauma
transubstantiating
OpenWealth and WholeHealth
ethotic/erotic
crown/root Holy Wisdom

EarthJustice enlightening/empowering
polytheistic/polyculturing peak experience
peace therapy

Passion-Liberating/Pleasure-Conserving
Win/Win Gaia Hypothesis

That bicameral intelligence
invokes organically sacred EarthTribe’s
patriotic/matriotic
inter-religious panentheistic
compassion/pleasure peak climate experiences
revering revolutionary
transformative
ethotic/erotic co-alliances.

Would you probably feel more,
or less,
proud of your nation
or pillaged by your nation

If we had exceptional health caring integrity?
Including physical
and mental
and spiritual
and natural
and climate
and democratically inter-connected
inter-religious health
wealth
and indigenous EarthTribe wisdom.

First Faces of Conflict

Perhaps too redundantly,
and not quite enough elegantly

Elders have pictured Original Yang/Yin
cobinary Wu-Wei Balance,
speaking in an unfortunately complex
kind of kindness way.

But, achieving bipartisan political democracy

Or, even further back
to our First Apple Tree of Life and Death,

After all that,
