Poem
Economically comfortable civilians, without militarized propaganda indoctrination, without physical neglect or abuse experience, without religious blame and shame intimidation, may sustainably recognize themselves as safe, while stressed about why they do not matter, do not feel needed or even uniquely loved and wanted. We are not born this way. When an infant receives no environmental cues providing chronic stress about "Am I safe?" then the right-brain's, "Do I matter?" remains dormant, unquestioned within early co-empathic win/win default. The social and political and economic question of interdependent value is assumed to be Positive when the left-brain is resiliently satisfied about ego-safety, thrivability for the foreseeable future rooted in rapidly growing environmental nutrition experience; ecologically healthy, more than pathological, warm climates of positive energy enculturation. I have learned, especially during my win/lose adolescent exploration years, but not only then, that meeting all criteria for physical safety speaks to the Negatives healthy mindbodies must avoid, toxicities endemic to social-political risks of left-brain dominant intelligence, but only implicitly hints at co-arising dipolarities of and for our interdependent wealth healthy identity through win/win communication, intersectional effectiveness, sacred meaning and spiraling vocation, secular purpose and cooperative avocation. The feminist, knowing s/he is against patriarchy and concomitant monocultural corporatism, monopolistic commodification of social values, colonizing win/lose hyperactive intent rooted in supremacist safe and secure sense of entitlement, yet not able to articulate what s/he is for, is a good example of one who believes s/he could be safe on a right-brain prominently interdependent win/win matriarchal Earth, but has no active enculturation academic and/or experientially reflective education to thereby uncover egoleft-ecoright health-wealth interdependent meaning. Going back to my original list of environmental hazards to avoid for left-brain sustainable safety security, absence of militarized lose/lose cognitive/emotive co-arising complex chaos does not explicitly invite peaceful win/win compassionate communication, non-dissonant communion, non-violent community. Avoiding physical neglect and abuse is necessary, but not at all sufficient, to sustain emotional appreciation and active support through healthy wealth of cooperative inter-relational experiences, recreative joy and profoundly creative celebration, like making robust resonant harmonies music, regenerating music's internally felt dance, not only solo, but with a partner, within a family, a community of peers, a shared globally mediated stage of song and dance resistance and celebration of shared compassion. Avoiding religious blame and shame games is not sufficient to discover natural/spiritual nondualistic win/win compassion games defining wealth as refining health, uncovering right-brain resonance by discovering left-brain resilience, explicating opportunity for meaning without implicating great risk of unsafe egocentric purpose, informing yang/yin robust intersectionality without exflowing left or right mindbody egalitarian intelligence. It remains easier to let go of win/lose patriarchal cultures as we become more adept with grabbing hold of win/win ecofeminist climates.
