CoOperative Agency
They are friends,
I imagine,
Or perhaps unfamiliar
yet curious
neighbors.
These two seem to like
to lick
each other
And probably value public transparency
more than personal privacy
I wonder
how they became work out
and play in partners,
surprisingly athletic,
flexible,
and inventive
With minds
that began flirting,
Engaging bodies
now urgently culminating.
Benediction
for this newly heated
yet ancient
sacred communion
A warm summer kiss,
a shared soiled towel,
a sapient smile
in the shower.
Gifted Doorways
“Grief can be a doorway to love.”
Robin Wall Kimmerer, Braiding Sweetgrass
Grief can open toward gratitude
As loss can open doors to access gain
As trauma can open hearts
to therapeutic brains
As neglect can foster curious compassion
As depression
can incite active
co-empathic impressions
As double negative sociopathologies
can notice doorways
to positive psychologies
As double-binding
dualdark entropy
can open space
for positive double-binary energy strings
of co-empathic
multiculturing time
As isolating sadness
can open doors
to love’s transcendent gladness.
Reflections On Ancient Love
Long before sun light
was born from starkness
Long before Earth’s dawn
broiled unsteady hot star fire
Long before She filled
Her scarlet mind
with Yang’s high hills
time was this love
This ancient life
is reborn.
Long before our trees
greenly filled
Mother’s forests
Long before a wind
unsailed to sing
Earth’s wholesome songs
Long before She filled
Her turqjuoise mind
across Her seas,
time rewinds love
This ancient life
health born.
Long before Earth’s great chain
of being
forged ecocidal
egosystems
Long before a voice
could speak
divine creation
Long before She filled
Her bleeding heart
to grow a child
there is Earth’s love
This ancient life
wealth torn.
Long before a Truth
of love’s life
could be broken
Long before our wounds
were nailed upon a Mother Tree
Long before She laid Her body down
under His light
time spins this love
This ancient life
still born.
Wakeful each night
Greeting Earth’s dawning
Stubborn as trees
rebirthing burned
wounded hills
As we fill our healing minds
to hold Earth’s timeless time
This ancient love
Her aching life
flows stumbling on.
Note: This is a theological/ecological reflection on the lyrics to “This Ancient Love” words and music by Carolyn McDade, Copyright by Surtsey Publishing/ 1996, by Carolyn McDade. These are the word choices I hear when speaking and singing Carolyn McDade’s beautiful composition. Not experienced, meant, intended as an improvement, update, or correction, but as a Both/And communion of sad sacred gratitude, in preparation for Earth Day, 2022.
What Is This Thing?
What is this thing
called mortal love?
Yet not a Thing
at all
At least a Relationship,
Which, of course,
requires two or more
to adore-fully dance
or, divorcing,
fall
Back into Earth’s green ball
planting and replanting health
without one sign to recall
LeftBrain conserving dominance
preserving StraightWhiteMale prominence
throughout his-story’s clumsy appall
Peace brokers wondering,
How grows this integrity,
felt immortal passion
not not mortally unknown
after bodies
and before spirits
good health natured
co-arising All
These sacred relationships
for Earth’s immortal love
in one dynamic place,
passions springing forth
toward warm best known
recall.

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

Restoring Tarnished Virtues
God’s oral,
and Gaia’s ancient anal
naturally spiritual laws
are win/win discursive,
not win/lose debating,
when climate polycultural conditions
are democratically healthy thriving
Not blaming,
judging,
shaming,

as when monoculturing colonizations
of EurAsians autocratically
and kleptocratically sick
and barely monotheistically surviving
curiously endure inhumane denial
of runaway capitalist win/lose

straight white patriarchal
lose/lose ego/eco-fading systemic nihilism

Our Place in Time
As autonomous Space
is to emPowering internally uniting Matter,
So too is eternal stasis,
emptiness of incarnate co-relational,

Whole OpenSystemic,

Lose/Lose past ZeroZone

ReConnecting Severance
Not saying we’re all the same,
but more same
when sane
than different
even when divergent.
My big TakeAway
from smashing bilateral Edward DeBono,
bicamerally empowered Julian Jaynes,
and bineural systems enlightened Iain McGilchrist
Taoistically together:
What is ecological healthy relationship,
in LeftBrain dominant worldview secular
scientific atheism
Is also theologically interactive experience
to RightBrain recessive sacred aesthetic feelings
and sensory needs
and neuro-systemic health/wealth
strong/flow wants
To avoid LeftBrain dominant distinctions
without possible experiential difference
between ecowomanist
Gaian polytheism
pantheism
and natural/spiritual nondualistic
out/in-sided
Zero/NonZero bicamerally Zoned
natural egobodies inside spiritual TheoMinds
of and for nonviolent multicultural communication.
LeftBrain polycultured
health/wealth systemic
ecopolitical bicamerality
of democratic networks
of nonviolent
verbal/nonverbal communications
evolved from RightBrain prominent feelings
Win/Win original polyvagal neural normative
thrival conditions,
memories,
multiculturing experience
across multiple polypathic regenerations
To restore
and optimize Ego/Earth’s ecological health
and safely defended theological
polytheistic space/timelessly co-relational
ego/eco-passionate wealth
Of resonant temporal enlightenment
and resilient spatial empowerment
co-habiting bicameral win/win flowing
branching eco-minds
with strong integral
synergetic ego-bodies
More structurally
and systemically same
sane
than metaphysically different
dissonant.
