Poem
Where do we think all this economic and politically empowering cooperative nutritional organically luscious imagination and ecologically exegetical orthopraxis started? George Lakoff speaks of strictly straight stern paternalistic God the Universalist Fathers, vertically Winning over an otherwise Loser, yet highly competitive, ecopolitical world and ecologically survivalist-separatist human parasite-divine supremacist nature-spirit dualist Western-Dominant straight-way of seeing our origins and ourselves, or at least our father-figures, ForeFathers, ProGenitors of victorious Yang-Health Win/Lose Left over RightBrain WinWin Dominant enculturation. OK, I may have added a few gaming elements, paradigmatic essences which Lakoff speaks of as if they may be associated with some other economically and politically normative and important words like healthy v pathological climate, spirit, natural chemistry, dynamic, changing yet traditional ecological networking relationships. In describing what I call LeftBrain ecopolitical Dominance, and what he describes as patriarchal straight-stern Father Knows Healthy Competitive Best 1950's Republicanism, "Absolute categorization requires essences, properties that define absolute categories." Patriarchs tend to be Win/Lose Universalists, as nurturing Matriarchs therapeutically trend toward WinWin Unitarian-Integrationists, polycultural nondual co-arising nature-spirit enrichment over monocultural BadBoy too-competitive ecopolitics. Strict Father evolutionary ecopolitical models, also LeftBrain Enculturation-Language Dominant, are more drawn to spiritual fundamentalist belief systems while their Nurturing Matriarchal Networking RightBrain looks toward root systems of natural-radical regenerative fertility, requiring some fortunate/unfortunate ambiguity about the nature-spirit compete/cooperate essences of ecopolitical gender categories. RightBrain radical spiritual experiences may be suppressed, but MotherEarth's cooperative regenesis is not yet dead. Because of my own Strict Father evangelical Christian Republican, post-adolescent USA formative years, I have a renewing appreciation for growing up damaged, but still RightBrain basically healthy-balancing, in an ecopolitical LeftBrain Patriarchal EgoDominant conservationist Republican-agrarian and yet healthy nature-spirit Matriarchal understory family, where I was part of the dominant Whites-Only monoculturing separatist rural Michigan culture, and also secretly queer as a two-dollar bill, as we used to say back in the anti-feminist day. This combination eventually led me away from Fundamentally-Dualist God the Condemning Father toward the Radical-NonDualist Goddess the Nurturing Nature-Spirit LeftEgo-Right ElderSacred EcoPolitical Wisdom Literature of Taoism, and Unitarian-Universalism, where the hyphen itself tells the entire permacultural history between pre-millennial Tao as (0)-sum balancing ecopolitical SpaceTime spoken in bilateral dialects of Patriarch/Matriarch Yang/Yin CoOperative Enthymematic Communication, to fill in my nondual natural-spiritual matriarchal feminist side, which is much more fun and a whole lot wiser than without. From this still-maturing vantage I can see that we can all bicamerally see that ecopolitical-ecological fusion is to regenerative complexity (M. Csikszentmilhalyi) as cooperative-comparative ecopolitical blurring is to chaos theory, or Creolizing Political Theory, in Jane Anna Gordon's vocabulary, or Feminist EcoPolitical Theory. Here I enjoy a more cooperative networking and balancing culture of extended polypathic bicameral family values, while still aesthetically appreciating Patriarchal Forms of CoMessianic Nurturing Daddies as also Bodhisattva Matriarchal MercyWarriors restoring Peace and Climate Justice, at their nurturing wise Solomonic best, where we all began, in RightMind ecopolitical prodigal potential Mommy's Wombs, living within Sacred MotherEarth's climate prime Attachment of Beloved CoOperative Left/Right contenting Health; anonymous pre-embryonic Taoists. LeftBrain ecopolitical and familial dominance is more deeply etched in 'nonEastern' languaged and nonverbally communicating/dissonating cultures, (I dare not speak the LeftBrain WesternCapitalist Patriarchal Name of strict means straight and stern Calvinist truth more than also spiraling, thermodynamically balancing, double-binding fractal (0)-sum polypathic octave frequencies of enlightnment, CoOperative Nature's Divinely Sacred Symmetric BiLateral DNA-fractal Beauty) Both verbally and nonverbally, both familial and extended socially, both economically and extended political power invested both competitively and cooperatively, both authoritatively regenerative and nurturing-health responsibly, it seems to me these are appositional polarities around which each of our economic and political narratives find their most nutritiously enlightening root systems of ecological climate health as ego/eco-centric wealth. Within this wealth paradigm, The Donald looks more like the Court Jester than the Earth Messiah. Unfortunately, now the BadBoy logical conclusion of LeftBrain Dominant USA adolescent competitive ecopolitics has even more power of the purse and nuclear ballistics. It's like letting your kids play with inside fire while outside investing in more gasoline. It just doesn't feel healthy or like wise wealth investment planning to me; more kind of LeftBrain Dominatrix-Delusional terrifying.
