Solstice Solidarity

In the beginning
of individual first NoelNights
taking our great climatic breath,

All each of us possesses,
and is possessed by,
is sacred EarthMother

Humble shepherdess
singing vast compassion’s angelic empowerment
of great rebirth
giving enlightenment.

We each represent

this first EarthJustice health communion

Wealth journey
into last and final Solstice

ChristMassive Eve
invoking universal health care giving
predicting local uniting harvest
of resilient wellness wealth

As we cooperatively push our babies forward
in silent carriages of active hope
to resist a dispassion climate
apartheid climax,
deadly stillborn

Wherein all that remains
of future warm breath generations
are shadow moon
and fading starlight
coldly witnessing
no angels singing
on high
nor below
what was our living
breathing MotherEarth

Now, this day,
still seeking and finding here
first empowering
and last enlightening

Dark and final climaxing
sacred co-empathic
passion storied climate frights

Of first/last bright night’s
final warm music intent
to breathe healthy co-passioned
co-arising journey flight

Breathing in
then together out,

Up
then back down

Western YangFull pride
and Eastern Yintegral Empty slide

final restoring night
of Earth’s synergetic Solstice,
compassion’s resonant story

Greatest journey

Pandemonic Hope

“I believe in the sun
even when it is not shining”

I remember someone recently resaying
what has long lain unsaid
inside my paradoxical head,

When asked if I believe in God,
I don’t know what to say.

I might not believe in your God,
at least on my worst
pain-darkened day.

And,
I seem to believe in my own
only in those rare rain-free moments
healthy ego- and eco-gratifying

When I am having a climax heart
and head
song
and dance remembering
re-ligioning
reconnecting EarthMoment

Shared with at least one Other,
perhaps for our first through last time
in this
our day of sacred synergy

Sustaining
surrounding
celebrating a yellow morning
mellow sunrise
promising this wealthy day
without soggy rain

As we prepare to health harvest
warmly fragrant sun-dried hay
I quietly say

So, there is a God,
after all.

“And I believe in love
even when there’s no one there.
And I believe in God
even when he is silent.”

These two additional beliefs
feel like one Relief Belief
to my bicameral head choice
and heart voice.

For it has often been said
and felt
that God is love

Especially when
Matriotic HolySpirit of Love
doesn’t act like a Patriarchal Fool

And, by that,
I reference my own sociopathology
of privileged entitlement
monoculturally over-invested
in capitalist Straight
White
Earth Predations
Colonizations
Extractions
Rapaciousness

But,
my most courageous inscriptions
of whispering hope
often not felt enough
sacredly chosen silence
in spaces between
my LeftBrain dominant
distracting notes

Where my own AnthroSupremacism
falls vibrantly listening
to responsively hear
Elder MotherTrees
sigh
and breeze

Silently praying
for strong rooted
cooperative integrity

Within this organic Green Communion
forest of hands on
generating regenerous Hope.

Note:

Pandemonic Hope is part of a series of theological reflections offered to and from the All Souls Unitarian-Universalist Choir in New London, Connecticut. 

“Inscription of Hope” was composed for the Nebraska Choral Arts Society and Children’s Chorus by Z. Randall Stroope, in conversation with a Russian Folk Tune.  His lyrics are drawn from an inscription on cellar walls hiding Jews in Cologne, Germany, during World War II. Stroope’s own 1994 reflection on the significance of these words, in this Holocaust pandemonic context, “Hope was all they had to hold on to; hope was their only bridge to a brighter [nonviolently restoring justice] tomorrow.”

Eighth Grade English

Back in Eighth Graded Class
of StraightWhiteMale English privilege
I learned all healthy narratives
must have at least one
of these three tension intentions:

Like sacred mythic prayers
and fables invoking
poetry and soulful
gospel anthems

Of StraightWhite Man v AnthroOther

Or StraightWhite ManBody v EgoCentric Self

Or StraightWhite ManSpirit v Earth’s Sacred/Carnal Nature

I was disappointed
with the LeftHemisphere narrow-mindedness
of these three Either/Ors
which my RightHemisphere
could more deeply hear
as monocultural lack
of inter-trinitarian
Both HumanTrauma and DivineTherapy
in integrity’s polyculturally inclusive
compassionate Earth Communion.

I thought I had seen and heard
lack of heart resources
among AnthroSupremacist early philosophers
and scripture righter downers
instinctively suppressing liberally democratized
polycultural health-systemic
polypathic compassion communicating
polyphonic harmonic resounding
polyvagal neurosystems
most actively hoping health
among win/win economically enlightened
and politically empowered EarthWomanists.

I’m sure I still can feel touched gratitude
for more healthy democratic attitude
co-governing cooperative green co-investments
in EarthMother climate
and family healthcare,
public
and domestic,
global
and local nutritional wealth conservation,

Economically bright
and politically right
ecologically tight relationships
lead
and feed
theologically mighty cooperative reflections

Politically correct
replete with regenerative
healthy co-redemptive
win/win poyculturally meditative
mediation strategies seductive
among win/lose monocultural predatives,

Encouraging, perhaps, a cannabis sedative
and easing up on alcoholic dissociatives
drunk from win/lose evolutionary theories
of AnthroSupremacy Wins Earth’s wealthiest superlative
despite stumbling into humbling wounds
of multi-degenerational EcoCide

A more Left/Right Wing balanced
evolutionary race theory of white supremacy
unbalanced
mentions intrinsic narrative tensions
between peaceful intentions
and male militaristic
colonizing
enslaving
proprietary
patrilinear monocultural domination
going way back through HiStory

Toward brighter indigenous lights
of early monotheistic SunGod Worship
preferring healthier transparent light
and wealthier vulnerable win/win

LeftBrain RightWing Dominance

When reading
and singing
and dancing poetry,
enspiriting Earth’s choreography,
I need not check my LeftBrain dominance
at rhetoric’s RightWing healing door,

But bring PatriCapitalist Him with me
at least once more
to heal and restore

What EarthMothers wisely preach
and indigenously practice
and adore

No severance
between Earth’s natural systemic Truths
and Ego’s spiritual reanimation
restoring healthy EarthyBeauty
thriving
resilient abundance

By letting go
of peevishly competitive
LeftBrain dominantly domesticated
satiated
uneducated
about regenerative systemic design

And, thereby RightWing overgrown
predative
desecrating

Former sacredly healthy green climates
now more pathological
by over-petted Anthros
over-self invested,
Earth infesting pests

With voracious AnthroDivine appetities
of LeftBrain dominant parasites
preying on RightBrain prominent
EarthMother feminists

Who now lament,

“Straight White PatriCapitalists:
can’t resonantly love with’em,
can’t resiliently live without’em.”

Ecological Process Theology

If theology is the study
of ecological experience
most ruddy

I call on Yang’s higher powers
and Yintegrity’s deeper showers
of omniscience
and sensual omnipotence

Internal light
and externally powerful
omnipresence
naturally pantheistic
and spiritually panenegoistic

Cooperatively health
and resiliently wealthy
safe ecological co-empathic relationships
swelling expansive anthros less pessimistic
experienced with LeftBrain dominantly speaking egos
with theologically experienced reflection
realistic

To RightBrain bilateral eco-systems
of spirited-nature nonviolence
as yintegral Yang’s potential economic balance
less divisibly autistic

When individuals may be egos
and corporations
and incarnations
and monoculturing
colonizing nations

Closed and Open missions
Win/Lose and Win/Win
ZeroSum divisive
and NonZero full-global missive

Slipping down into degenerative
lose/lose Hell non-survivable
or heading up into regenerative
Heaven holistic
nondualistic
transcendent thrival

Where theological resonance
greets ecological resilience

Then monocultural predation
slips behind polycultural intention
extension of capital enlightened economies
for multi-theological health
and political empowering ecologies
of poly-nonpathological wealth

Theologically reflecting
on nonviolent communication
holey re-poleing sense systems
thriving by polyvagal win/win default
neuro-ecological can’t resist’ems

If theology is our study
of Earth’s ecological experience
most rutty
ruddy.

Healthy Climate Culture

We are here
sexing
and singing
mindfulling our Perceptions and Questions
together in this now present
gifted Time

To eat and work together
for our cooperative
and ancient thriving health care,
of course,

But,
also,
and perhaps even more pre-historically
pre-anthrosupremacy,
to sing and dance together
to win/win play our root vibrant chakras,
and cooperatively think
by feeling together
sharing co-invested sacred wonders
and compassionately embodied awe,
of course,

And to embrace our EarthTribe sexuality,
our wild natural spirited climates
of climax and relax,
elapsed spacelessness
and relapsed time
of Yang and Yintegral
Heaven/Earth CoOperative Peace

Between ego Patriarchs
and ecosystemic Matriarchs,
transgenderal
multigenerational
regenerative democratic
organic organizing

Evermore sacred,
less merely secular sensory-neural systemic
LeftBrain verbalized reflections
transmutations
transfigurations
transcendent transubstantiations

Climax Yangish revolutions
of a sacred penetrating mountain
baptized in EarthPowered ecofeminist flow
of HereDivine/NowHumane

For a global health/wealth

unfolding
reweaving climate
of this
our politically correct time together
within Earth’s Great PolyCulturing Communion.

Great LoveSongs

If I can say it,
but not sing it,
or even hum a resonant melody
that feels like it,
then perhaps my greater gift
is silence,
at least for now,
until toxic seeds
ripen into our healthiest
resilient,
harmonious,
fertile wealth.

So, sing to me,
divinely doctrined Missionaries
and patriarchal Terrorists
offering personal
individualized
autonomous salvation
swept into heavenly soprano Paradise,

When
and where
and why on Earth
does God hum
and Goddess ooh,

“Partisan dissonance is healthy”?

Or, in reverse,
Cooperatively sung
re-connecting
re-ligioning harmony is
economically
or ecologically
or theologically
or politically
or psychologically
or socially
or religiously pathological,
unrailed,
derailed,
demonic.

Isn’t Holy Spirit resonance
of co-invested cooperative compassion
chanting
and channeling just the opposite?

In Her organic EarthTribal Golden Rule
Resonant Ratios
Golden Rings flowing
glowing
all-encompassing Holistic Elixir
of vibrant vibrato faith?

Filling our bilateral ears, hearing
what eyes see conducting nonviolent change,
mouthing tastes of sweetness
and bitterness,
saltiness
and sourness,
majors
and minors noticing
what nose natures comparatively smell,
feeling surrounded
by outside touching
operatic transformations,
large and small stage colonizations,
intricately performed fugue creolizations

Peacefully listening with diverse equanimity
integrity
dignity
unity without uniformity

Feeling quality of healthy v. challenging sound
resounding societies and astonishing cultures,
polycultures and monocultures,
democratic and autocratic tones,

Giving positive and negative voice
to dogmas and creeds,
dramas and greed,
nuts and seeds,
breeds and feeds,
thoughts and deeds,
intentions and bleeds
divine pleads and humane heeds

Regenerating active just investments
and peacefully rejoiced infestments,
secular passion
and sacred Out/InTegrity,
Above/Below harmony
