Resonant Silence
Secular silence,
still as death.
Sacred silence,
subtle sounds of Earth’s synergy
And what vast sounds,
unheard voices,
unloved songs,
unjustified dances,
unpeaced anthems,
unbeautified pose of light
may lie in waiting silence
between invitation
and deadening declaration?
Invasions of deadly silent waiting,
Sublimations of lively unvoiced surrender
into softbound volumes,
listening
for this great divide to speak
between deeply absorbed secularity
immanently transcendent wise flying harmonies
of sequestered
sanctuary silence.
Silent,
like snow,
like sleet,
like sobriety,
not univocal;
not yet profoundly voiced.
The Vegan Witch
Said the Witch
to the Cannibal Giant,
It’s nice that you have good intentions
of diet reform.
Now exhausted,
and polluted,
by your competitions against Earth
and all Her win/win life-serving Tribes,
now you are noticing
how the other half lives
for cooperatively-held co-ownership
with Earth’s healthy wealth
residing in harmonic bicameral balance.
It’s nice that you see your reformed egocentric head-hunting,
monetizing,
counting,
hoarding win/lose shallow victory ways
as ultimately tipping toward ecological conclusions
of theological humanity Loss
co-gravitating divine Earth universally Losing climate health wealth.
It’s nice that you would retire from Cannibal Giant
narcissist
to cooperatively invest in proudly patriotic residence
deeply learning co-investment
in sacred/secular bilateral Earth,
An inhabitated right-brain integral universe
composed of DNA-inspired EarthTribes

Economics: Capitalism v Messianism
Asked three cannibal philosophers,
named Who
and What
and Why
is eating life so bad
without smothering it in catsup?
Who is serving What
and Why
to Whom
on Earth is NotWho?
Already eaten
by re-connecting tissue issues
Do we invest in ever more and better
win/lose capital head-hunting hunters?
Playing Either/Or ZeroSum games
of deadly loss
over fulfilling and resiliently continued life together?
Or Win/Win Christian
and Islamic
and Buddhist
nondualistic nature/spirits inviting co-attachment games
for all multicultural eco-messiahs,
suffering ego-prophets re-attaching
within MotherEarth’s
bodhisattva therapeutic agenda,
Earth-serving Whom
health integrity
of Who, loving
What, co-arising
Why, redeeming life
over corrupting death.
Thriving non-cannibals
have long chosen to serve,
love,
worship polyculturing healthy Earth,
felt through all Her TribalTimes,
by not merely commodifying the calorie value of lunch,
not extracting without reparation plans,
not using without repurposing.
Gaian Hypothetical-Prophetical God
is ReCreating humane/divine co-emergent Love
fully-invested in win/win strategies and designs
without capitalistic supremacy,
without paternalistic fake ReLigion
LeftBrain too dominantly win/lose strategic
Either-In/Or-Out cannibalistic aggressions against Outs,
too competitive to respect win/win diplomacy,
too deductively dis-associated lack of empathy,
too reductive of nature to include RightBrain spiritual-inductive awareness
Resulting in rabidly chaotic lack
of eco-messianic
co-arising mindfulness
of Who serves secular/sacred EarthIntegrity,
What left/right bilateral co-intelligence could re-connect
becoming win/win Why
We struggle between fading climate health
and weathered,
inhumane,
cannibalistic-militaristic pathology.

Ecology of Revolution
I remember
a young child in Sunday School
wondering what Jesus meant
when he said,
I have come out
into Earth’s narrative
to turn Her upside down.
How could this be true,
when he also taught that those who receive more
will get more,
and vice versa;
less worthy grace
for less valued face.
This didn’t sound right,
yet it did seem exciting,
Like something to hope for
even though Jesus didn’t really get the job done,
or at least not here
where I was
and not now
when I am.
It has taken a lifetime
of wondering about that curious and courageous,
audacious and admonishing claim
to realize Earth’s nutritional narrative
isn’t about turning planets
or people
spatially upside down,
But is all about returning Earth temporally inside out,
back forth
reverse forward,
principles for reverting revolutions.
For example,
Indigenous wisdom understood
we are here as one people,
one sacred Tribe,
to serve the health needs
and wealth wants
of EarthMother.
Just as Western patriarchal capitalism misunderstands
Earth is here
as our anthropocentric commodity,
one secular planet
to excavate
exploit
extract
rape
enslave
colonize
market
discount
clearance sale
to sever Her health needs
from our capital-hoarding wealth wants
before She inevitably dies.
What Jesus calls upside down
and inside out,
Laotse’s listeners call
a Principle of Reversion
back to when Yin induced Yang
so Yang would compassionately deduce Yin’s love
for humane wealth Truth
serving Earth’s health-revolutionary Beauty,
With much more cooperative economic outcomes
than leftbrain dominant competitive political incomes.
The DNA Web; Not RNC Wall
Resilient Climate Consciousness
as old as DNA,
Indigenous spiral ways of regeneration
invite revolutionary principles from yang equal egos
through yin eco-interdependent integrity
double-boundary systems
developing ecological economies of emotion,
deeply wealthy opportunities
for knowing resilient climate health.
This original integrity way of life,
not risky death,
(1) Prejudicially favors living cooperatively re-connecting
with our DNA extended family
from both sides
ecofeminist sacred East
and patriarchal secular West.
(2) This LifeWay invites bilateral/bicameral mindfulness
of win/win opportunities
to extend sacred compassioning attachments,
to re-incarnate past secular harmonic agreements.
(3) In this way
we have developed
with every attractive win/win opportunity,
distractive win/lose risk,
and unattractive lose/lose
all living future desecrating experience
of relationships fragmented
unrelationship
anti-relationally
conscious of climatic stress,
unconscious systems unraveling,
anti-conscious against integrity’s re-connecting health
with wealth potential.
(4) This DNA Way
sustains resilient health systems
of Earth’s synergetic web
resonating collaboration
(5) Through bicameral processes
of cooperative ego-win/eco-win
co-passionate experience
(6) And our natural-yang/spiritual-yin
re-connections
left with right
ego with eco-therapeutic climate consciousness
(7) Prejudicially favors living cooperatively
with our DNA health/wealth
extended EarthTribe family…

Wanted: Better Health Care Systems
I’ve heard it said,
and seen it done,
“This currency of capitalism
is the very venomous root of all evil.”
And, I’ve heard good cooperative capitalists say,
perhaps a bit too loudly,
“Not money, this root,
merely innocent paper and metal-based resource,
but human natural win/lose evolutionary greed,”
Selfish inhumane spirits indeed
are Earth’s rapacious demon seed.
This reminds me,
I’ve also heard it said,
and felt depressing loss,
that “Automated guns
are the root toxic cause of massive murder.”
I’ve also heard deer and quail unautomated hunters,
perhaps a tit for tat too defensively military unmindful,
“Not guns at moral fault,”
although not quite so innocent
ballistic metal-based,
or even plastic-paste resource
not the least bit recyclable,
“but human unnatural win/lose mental devolutionary madness.”
Shadowy spirits indeed,
such dark seed.
Seldom have I heard it said,
or felt lose/lose despairingly unresolved debate,
the better identified malignant root
of win/lose violent communications
and malignant divestments of anthropocentric inhumane nature,
is the unfortunate sociopathic RELATIONSHIP
between automated guns
and Might Makes Right
win/lose devolutionary natures,
darkly co-relational,
co-arising bipolar pathology issues
indeed
rotten detaching attachment seeds
Perhaps it would be helpful
if I could hear
what I have most often seen
transparently and vulnerably lose/lose
economic-political capital extracting
colonizing
enslaving
racist
sexist failure to notice
co-arising internal/external tool and currency invested relationships,
These most persistently unhealthy dual roots
of anti-ecological,
competitive,
win/lose economic failure
also the unfortunate politically sociopathic relationship
between capitalism’s commodifying monopoly
on FirstWorld accepted as entitled true value,
reasonable
culturally tolerated
historic might makes right
competitive left-brain dominant greed,
envy
detachment
fragmentation of left/right harmonic co-relational identity,
cognitive/affective dissonance chronic,
becoming acute,
critical ego/Earth climate dysfunctional lack of relationship risks
of long-term industrial revolutionary opportunities
Where MotherEarth
transparently and vulnerably,
courageously and curiously,
rightfully and co-responsibly nurtures
Either/Or polypaths
and Both/And polyphonic polynomials
producing/consuming polyculturally health-rooted outcomes,
nutritional win/win yields
more health/wealth cooperative
in bilaterally conscious minds,
humane hearts,
secular/sacred ungreedy
co-passioning souls.
Dancing Across Together
We came across this Earth together
and you’re still here.
We sail through all these sunlight days
and moonless nights
togathered in,
and we hear still.
We swim through all our fears to drown
what fills my rage.
We march through angry Earth apart
and disappear.
Or dance across this Earth together
so we’re still here.
