Poem
What is love? A sea of nonexistence both tranquil and calamitous where the mind does not dare enter. (Rumi, M. Mafi, "Day By Day", p. 120, 2014, Hampton Roads) What is timeless synergy? Our sea of coexistence both confluent and dissonant where blind consciousness seldom dares disembody. Aging time, This house, not home, hums and strains pitchy tension, Remnants of bleached but dingy historic laundry, face cloths remember cherished warm skin, dryer in winter's discontent, more needy of enduring compassion. Staring through my mirror now, I reach back into black glazed pupils expanding through memory archives, four grandparents staring back through this sagging reflected face, each one time-traveling through this same bilateral Black Hole Home's binomially eternal windows imagining forward grandchildren's future lives, remembering backward through these four grandparents. We know this visual looking out and back and through our mutually cooperative investment generations, sometimes more listening dissonant, sometimes less win/win mutual mentors, bicamerolling partnerships, but at least on occasion syncing cooperative praxis or this interdependent coredeemer face could not stare back through time. Aging rapidly now, back toward messianic mystic shamans. Where were these same DNA-drenched pupils of mutual subsidiary learning expanding and contracting, causing hearts to race and calm, breath to gasp and slowly subsidize this atmosphere of longing to belong ago again? Were these wise mentors hopeful ancient mariners, swimming through generations of salty tears, wet fears and joys, jumps and starts, swelling farts feeding trees to synthesize our enculturing breath? Listening for, noticing a new millennium, era, life, perennial cycle, season of organic polycultural development, more permanently encultured with fertile light and warm felt sounds and Time's regenerating rhythms of dancing songs and thumps, surfs and silent advents. Speaking, perhaps these pupils listen for what they see reflecting back through karma's cumulative incarnations, each grace of opportunity for mindfully inclusive redemption, love as synergy, dissonance as hate, violence, neglect, dismay, heartbreak, unsustainable loss of therapeutic life to fly and swim together or fall apart back through plasma flows and folds, regenerating informating these deep learning pupils looking, searching, noticing, decomposing, seeding, growing, guarding, developing, incubating, harvesting, winnowing nutrient compost through ancient primal roots of RNA's meaning, regenerating body dancing purpose To keep stepping forward through Time's unfolding information incarnation, as possible, avoid revolving backward into meaningless mindless dissonance, competitiv e disarray, dominator violence, decaying entropy. Pre-historic now, our pupils reflect darkly dense regenerative study, decomposing wispy wet winds and whips of swimming eco-seas, surfing pregnant prime love relationship of right and left cooperation remembering Yin greets Yang's dominant deductive proposal with mutually subsidizing solidarity, cooperation, investing in bipartisan future's redemptive ecology. Ancient bicameral ellipticals, mutually mindful Yang with Yin looking out and back, and in and positively forward through Time's ubiquitous consciousness. Primal evolutionary ionic self-mirroring, regenesis, ever aging eternal moment of dense strung solidarity remembering, recollecting, reconnecting NOW from past genetic heritage through future's evolving compassions. Timeless pupils of love's synergy surfing seasons of pre- and post-millennial awareness. Now if I could remember where I left my glasses, and my teeth...
