Pain in the Butt

The hater with the gun,
the loafing lover
with all my fun,
may be horrid,
too florid,

And may, like me,
merely want to be effective,
a dramatic part, affective
on and in this great staged show
we share
and sometimes care to listen
and too often speak
and shoot off too deadly much.

When we want to blow up competitively fast,
we go it alone,
as universally hungry egos.

When we want to go far
we go together,
cooperatively ego/eco-united.

When we want to go fast and far
we travel together
synergy’s intentional resilience
quickly listening for cooperative warm resonance.

Active lovers
together having all our fast fun
remelting cooperative plowshares
from hot and steely guns.

Tolerating Itchiness

A healthy distance for tolerating LeftBrain dominance
is to recognize our global incarnation
into RightWing intolerant prominence
as dogma of a strictly white hetero-male privileged unkind.

A distance between silent impatience
and loud dissent
is the distance between nonverbal nonviolence
and irritatingly verbal communication.

A tolerable distinction between quieter dissonance
and boisterous intolerance
is a distance between non-violent
and full LeftBrain dominantly overtaking
and/or sado-masochistic bipolarity
and/or socio-pathology
and/or undemocratic kleptocratic
Win/Lose capitalistic intention
in a LeftBrain alpha dog eats and beats
RightBrain beta feminist…dog world
on any over-heated…itchy day
he chooses inhumanely sick
ZeroSum one-sided pleasure.

So sorry.
This started out as a quietly sedate communication
and ended in a most unfortunately aggressive
sound of furious way.

Ballistic ForceSourced History

Like lack of preventive health care,
far more love is lost
through passive neglect
than active abuse.

And so it is
perhaps a negative corollary
we, most of us,
have failed to notice,
neglecting the industrial, then colonizing
history of unhealthy abusive gunpowder
moving toward western colonization
from Eastern playful,
and considerably more mindful and lovely,
origins of fireworks
spraying loud and joyful light
like stars falling
through blackened skies.

Eastern uncommodifying innocence,
decorating dark red skies with multiculturing light
rather than desecrating warm Western bodies
with loss of loving life
in search of royal golden treasure.

As YinSource moved into western European industrial revolutions,
She transformed into a hot Yang trade commodity
for exchanging power
overwhelming indigenous people
in Africa,
then the Americas,

Useful beauty tools
now deadly weapons fired and forced
for asserting Yang’s autonomous ownership
over darkly wild slaves
and their sacred magic habitats
of panentheistic humane-left/divine-right
organic health/wealth belief systems–

Where Yin waters dawn equally
and interdependently
within Yang-nurturing MotherLands
gilded by generous GrandMother Moon
and GreenBlue OceanSky Woman.

Most of us have also failed to notice,
without abusive monoculturing
colonizing intent,
a reverse-reversing time metaphor
of healthy-wealth YangForce power with YinSource,
receding into autistic lack of WinWin
embedded compassion care,
preventive holistic medicine
of multiculturing light
humane resourcedf
divine preforced

Further receding with indigenous wisdom loss,
from historical West
back to pre-historical East
wombed Source

Now engaging our globally embedded lead
in restoring Yin/Yang climate
thought-forced
and felt-sourced
co-present restoring justice,

A higher priority than Western Yang
ballistic abusiveness
without Yin’s health and beauty co-assertiveness,
non-violently communicating together
bicameral Win/Win grace
love
lived health
in NorthWest ego/SouthEast eco-appreciative red/green balance,

Long feared
by kleptocratic blue-blood Pharisees,
Win/Lose mafia governors,
and Lose/Lose nihilistic Sadducees,
kleptocratic aristocracies
themselves sadly enslaved
by swords and daggers
of abusive,
then neglectful, Roman colonies.

Speaking Passionate Peace

Speaking of peace
is at least not acting for further violence.

To speak about peace
with integrity
and power
is to speak peacefully,
confluently,
affluently and effluently,
from a position of heuristic left
and appreciative right
self/other integral inquiry.

Courageous wins
and curious wins
through co-empathic rediscovery,
all healthy souls are One, co-passioning
all souls are on our wealthy privileged/impoverished way
toward ZeroZone truths
with not not zero-sum ways.

To speak about world peace
without climate restoring justice,
is to re-cast Earth
as our impoverished unprivileged slave,
properly raped
and fracked
and drilled for plunder
wealthing without healthing
those of kleptocratic satiated anthro-centric privilege.

To speak about peace
with integrity
and power
is to speak peacefully,
win/win confluently,
from a position of healthy heuristic
and wealthy appreciative
inquiry.

Black Life Shatters

My oldest son,
one of the few Earth-mattering
Earth-shattering
Black lives
I was made to protect
to guide
by eco-righteous WinWin acts
and co-passioning words,

Felt, and therefore was, disempowered,
worthless,
like helpless prey among predators
who listen to the same rap,
same urban Earth writes,
same multicultural performances,
When a gun was dispassionately pointed at his head.

This was only tangentially about an economic exchange
primal, personally and politically, targeted.

He felt violated,
and threatened,
already home and identity invaded,
when forced to hand over his car keys,
and the back door
and front door
keys to his home.

He knows these guys,
where to find them on Facebook,
at the casino,
in the dance and rap clubs
where he invested
infested
while still in high school.

Urban night school, unEarthly,
earthy
darkly sensual.

He does not know where to find them in church.
Gospel music is for grandmothers.
Liturgical dance,
sacred rituals,
are for outside romance
on warm wet wombed erotic nights.

He felt naked
exposed
terrified when they demanded his last dime.

This is his biggest and baddest bully,
his most deeply echoing “LOSER!”
His darkest dirge
speaking of suicidal revenge.

Or prison,
where Earth’s great white patriarchal State,
will put a gun to his head
and force him to remove his clothes
and bend over
to assume the even more lost position,

Raped of any future hope
to rest outdoors
after an ecstatic liturgical dance
under a romantic full moon
rapping
and dancing
ultra-violet variations
on a warm wet wombed
bright delight.
Not So Bright Delight

You talk our talk
like Black Lives Matter,
but you walk your own walk
as Black lives shatter,
Brown lives stutter,
Green lives splinter.

What’s a-matter?

You want to want
all lives to splatter?
Might hear to hear
RealTalk ain’t chatter,

You eat to eat
friends heads on platters.
We taste to see
your fake get fatter.

Your act is tired.
Your allies scatter.
You need to feed
on guns’ disaster.

Come on now, Felix,
What’s a-matter?
Where’s your commitment
to Black Lives Matter?

These Liberating Truths

I’m musing with Jill Lepore,
historian (Harvard feminist, but definitely within brackets of general interest),
through eight hundred pages of These Truths
telling an other U.S. herstory.

She starkly says,
“Slavery is political”
while I had been thinking more of addictive economic
and punitive domestic relationships,
enslaving social absence of healthy relationships,
Dr. Lepore reminds me
about powerful natural/spiritual inter-relationships,
where overpowering addictions meet underpowering enslavement.

Nationalistically political
community-toxic apartheid,
personally oppressive-repressive ego-supremacist pathological
for both LeftBrain long-term smart investors
and RightBrain universal-frame cooperatively sentient property(ies) development.

LosePredator/LosePrey colonizing politics
again this historical effect
of insufficient interdependently synergetic web-spinning together
a healthier WinWin history/herstory
of ego/eco-normative
nature-spirit ZeroZones,
left-rights
yang-yins
Universal mountains of suppressed affluent strength
with
Unitarian eco-valleys of depressed effluent flowing grace,

Deductively autonomous truth labels
with
Inductively not-interdependent/not-fragmented flow
of ambidextrously apathetic suppression of impassioned feelings

Competitive Either/Or
with
CoOperative Both/And
nondual co-arising networks of communion,
ComPassionately owned nutritional RightBrain sentience,

Although perhaps not quite so much LeftBrain
dominantly effective/affective sentences.

ReImaging history
re-employing fertile/stagnant qualities
re-deploying LeftDominant language
of RightWing over-reactionary capital-royalist apartheid
competitively bought and sold with an ego-defeating loss,
disinvesting oppressions,
repression walls,
depression webs

RePlaced by healthier
more ego/eco-therapeutic
LeftThought and RightFeeling positive non-platitudes
actively hopeful re-creative tensions
interdependently webbed, networked
images for binding positiveYang with negativeYin,
egalitarian double-binary binding
negative past personal/political effects
inviting more positive WinWin future health causes,
more opportunities for deeply and widely trusting democratic communion,
natural and spiritual,
pan-sectarian
polypathic HereNow
ZeroZone spacetime
4D co-relational integrity,

Growth of cooperative power opportunities
for owning compassionate freedom,
and not so much LoseLose politics of slavery
and walls
and anti-herstoric
patriarchal LeftBrain dominant privilege

To invest in writing
and publishing
and reading eight hundred pages
of cooperative freedom v competitively enslaving U.S. life
pro-healthy political regenerative voice,
speaking truth to degenerative commodified economic
anti-ecological death of a healthy
multicultural future climate opportunity,
historically declaring cooperative integrity life
or death of violent non-solidarity.

In Love and War

You’ve heard it said?
All’s fair in love and war!

Well,
most ethicists,
even war-mongering philosophers,
disagree with the “All’s fair in war” part,

As do just everyday Earth-patriotic folks
who loyally prefer not to be bombed
and automatically rifled
just because some crackpot(s)
in the nearest capital city plutocracy
decide to make war,
using our kids and tax dollars,
instead of love,
co-passion,
solidarity with Earth’s pro-life health.

All ethicists,
and folks who find compassion
to responsibly risk vulnerability
of a loving relationship,
disagree with the “All’s fair in love” side
of this unmindful equation.

Fairness, equity, of powers to freely say
Yes
or No
to another’s invitation into passion
is a prerequisite to sustainable love,
grace,
mutual integrity of thought and feeling,
regardless of how short- or long-term projected.

It would be more valid
and validating
to observe,
All is at risk in both love and war,
but, unlike violent acts of hate
and fear
and anger
and greed,
risks of love are often fairly balanced
with opportunities for growing healthy cooperative resilience
together,
and certainly not warring unfairly apart.

Christmas Political Correctness

It’s almost Christmas
when the news caster abouter announces
a precipitous new trend in the U.S.

Now, more tired and climate stressed citizens
are against non-violent Political Correctness
than for political and economic government business
as contentiously nationalistic
and ineffectively partisan usual.

I wonder what the first Christmas would have looked like
if God the Loving Father
had been more Politically Correct
and sent His only beloved ChristChild
into the palace of Caesar Augustus

Who might have celebrated with a proclamation:
“All residents must register,
whether natural born citizens or not,
back in your original place of birth
so you can pay more taxes
to support more soldiers
to make more empire-building weapons
to protect my royal monocultural Reign,
soon to be overpoweringly extended
by God’s great patriarchal meritocracy reward,
Jesus Caesar, free of cooperative Politically Correct weaknesses,
Prince of RomanWar.”

Instead,
birthing Jesus in a shepherd’s barn
to parents temporarily homeless and displaced
by greedy war-mongering machinations
of Caesar Augustus…
Was that effective Politically Correct choice
or not?

Are you an evangelistic Christian
for growing rebirth into non-violent peace communication,
healthy relationships with all God’s EarthTribes,
advocating cooperatively owned and managed wealth and happiness
and resiliently nutritional and nurturing prosperity?

Internally effective prosperity,
mutual friendships
reflecting external natural and spiritual climate health care.

Or,
did God your Loving PolyCultural Father
intervene in history with Political Incorrectness
from your more humble Christmas manger view?

Among homeless immigrants,
animals,
straw,
stars,
angels,
nationalistic violent intent
to unbirth a suffering servant of non-violent Peace,
teaching theological and political points
of healthy effective internal
with environmental co-governance,
natural/spiritual Correctness.

Peaceful Christmas to Healthy All
multinational residents,
whether Politically Correct citizens of Rome
or Washington
or Mecca
or Bethlehem
reborn through this our non-violent co-passionate messiah vocation

To follow Christ born in a temporary shelter
and in ambiguous paternity circumstances,
surrounded by stars and angels
and by threat of Politically Violent Incorrectness.

May we all become reborn in climates of non-violent health,
reborn in multiculturing friendship,
reborn in compassionate Politically Correct peaceful wealth,
and sufficient clean water
and air
and soil prosperity
for God the Father’s Kingdom
at healthyLeft with wealthyRight hand,
Yang with Yin,
Nature with Spirit effective sojourner feet and minds
and Peace-commissioned bodies,

Reborn PC non-violent self-with-other
co-governing strong intent and flow-practicing
historic scripture-rooted, seeded
Multiculturing healthy Life,
Compassioning Truth,
Loving integral WuWei.

Born For Which Purpose?

If you live in a non-sectarian democratic nation
with so much energy
we can lavishly spend boatloads
and plane loads
and tank loads
and truck loads of oily public cash
on killing our own Green Commons,
and threatening all EarthTribes with punishment for…whatever,
and building ever higher physical and emotional walls against foreign tribes,
thereby spreading collateral damage to neighboring species
of animals
and once thriving indigenous plants;

If you live in a place
with so little energy to re-invest in feeding
and watering
and nurturing domestic residents
of all colors and stripes,
spots and star shapes;

Then you live in a nation
too poor in democratically proper health reinvestment
to have earned your blinding undivided wealth of loyalty.

If you live in an overly competitive FirstPatriarchal world
with so much borrowed money
we can competitively buy and sell
sweat and swell the entire planet
currently supporting our too conveniently deniable life that kills style,

Then you live in a codependent insane asylum
about to go bust,
leaving all Earth’s nations
as homeless as a crippled sheep
without a healthy flock,
much less a sacred shepherd
or any semblance of a wealthy heavenly fold.

Invite your ego
your family
your community
your nation,
to look for a higher non-partisan
non-sectarian
non-violent
non-defensive active health goal
encompassing all non-insular wealth objectives.

When achievement of WinWin global health goals is mutually inclusive,
commit to this cooperatively wealthy polypathic direction.

If WinWin is not consensually accessible,
not yet secular Here with sacred Now,
then co-determine healthy corrective actions
moving toward non-violent
non-sectarian
non-partisan
non-defensive therapeutic actions,

Adopt and adapt communication skills
to replace assumptions that winning secular wealth
requires losing sacred health
at home,
inside our own interdependent egos,
with better integrated win health
to win true and beautiful and trusted objectives of wealth
everyday,
this day,
then tomorrow,
and so forth toward inclusive polypathic peace

To restore Earth’s health and beauty trusting future,
We, both left/secular and right/sacred, deep learn
non-sectarian happiness and prosperity
2020 revolutionary nutritional goals
for one globally green democratic health paradigm,
cooperative network disciplines
polypathically deep and wide
where trending investment health is far more blessed
than mere pathology divestment focus.

Making war is not actively investing in health-restoring peace,
And acting ugly does not create beautiful karmic grace
or love
or positive energy investments
or whatever the non-sectarian
non-partisan
non-violating
multi-paradigmatic wealth you choose to call us
more cooperatively nationed
and nurtured
together.
