In Colchester, CT,
and possibly in your town too,
we have a LongTerm ReCoVery Committee
looking at 20/20 prevision
for post-pandemic climate health revisions
for wealthy local and global EarthJustice.

So, what have I noticed
that might be economically
and ecologically win/win useful?

In a post-pandemic
post-Trump StraightWhitePatriarchal-capitalist cabal,
post-BusinessAsUsual monoculturing economic climates
of All-Or-Nothing
Either-Or
Win-Lose competitive health-care, 

We over-value
fundamentally left-brain privileged subconscious
and/or unconscious bipolar Lose-Lose
absolutist
supremacist
xenophobic
anthropocentric slimates;

For sorta virally nasty primates
and for our actively curious win/win compassionate
engaged allies
restorative justice and peace mediators
co-invested witnesses
co-empathic cooperative co-mentors

For political,
ecological,
and possibly even win/win systematic theological,
mutual 
and eco-spiritual,
physical 
and metaphysical,
compassionate verbal
and non-verbal
therapeutic mediating communication systems
at our local bioregional level.

1. Our natural and internationally commodified food
distribution systems
are less cost/effectively efficient
and less environmentally friendly
than old-fashioned
local cooperative gardens and family farms
organically planned
and community implemented
to deliver fresh locally grown
cooperatively-owned,
produced
and privately
and commercial-publicly`
health and wellness wealth consumed.

2. Chronically stressed
by social-polarized politically
and economically divesting
unraveling distancing,
human nature looks for more multicultural ways
to reconnect with nearby domestic
win/win healthy and safer Animated Natures.

I have neighbors who had to take a number
to adopt a rescued dog.

I have neighbors whose household income is so reduced
they could afford to continue pet health care
cooperative consumer-owned insurance payments
if a local vet petcare network
with sliding fee and volunteer time-equity payment plans
were available.

I suddenly have a lot of neighbors
who are way more cooperatively invested
in the win/win companionship
of their healthy non-mask wearing dogs
and cats
than they are in masked
or unmasked me.

[Which is OK
because I've found myself reduced
more recently seduced 
by the sexiness of a MotherTree
standing starkly now this autumn
in Her scandalous scaled 
unmasked 
unleafed 
vulnerable
transparently communicating
nudity.]

3. I was waiting
at least six feet apart
in the Goodwill line
eighteen miles outside Colchester
remembering a mom
who is also an Economic Development Commissioner
observing that Colchester lacks
clothing 
and household goods retail
because we are a population under-scaled,
not yet over-infested with win/lose big-box
retailed
bought-and-sold
corporate monocultural
capitalist economic systems
overpowering cooperative networks.

And I'm remembering
all the consumer fun I had,
when my kids were still children,
shopping in good-used consignment shops;
a more suburban version
of Goodwill
cooperative-urban.

Then I remembered Colchester,
a new location to me
moved in during this pandemic,
is quietly rural
and village bedroom community,
where sweaters
under and over my arms
wait to travel with me
to our new home;

These may well have come
from Colchester to Norwich,
waiting to travel back again.

I wonder
what it would be like
to have local clothing and household goods
shopping options while riding bike
to a local CoOp and ConSignment Shop

Where good used stuff is further discounted
for CoOp consumers and re-salers,
owner co-managers
include a multicultural/disabilities
human resource savvy
LongTerm Win/Win RePurposing Team.

4. I also noticed
I have become so horribly contained
by our national and international addiction
to win/lose partisan debates
and vicious circle entertainments
and mutually antagonistic
economically viscous capitalistic political assumptions

I forget Earth's more Whole EcoSystemic
Win/Win regenerative economics
politically empowering,
cooperatively mediating,
mentoring long-term restorative
resilient regeneration

Through Her long-term climate 
of health/wealth-care 
cooperative wellness trends.

I've been listening to local candidates
for democratically healthy leadership positions,

Noticing how many are attorneys,
trained well by and for an adversarial
self-advertising debate
left-brain dominant
punishing win/lose competitions
in eco-political 
non-communicating 
non-virtuously imprisoning
partisan debate

Rather than discussing
long-term reconnecting peace opportunities
for local/global
ego/eco-compassionate co-investment.

I also remember
one of many recent zooming conversations
I've tried not to have
since Marching 20/20

Listening to an attorney
retrained by win/win-seeking
restorative justice mediating 
therapeutic process
progressively mentoring more of a deep listening
multiculturally intelligent
bicamerally balancing
good secular/sacred,
ecological/theological/neurological

Interfaith news
re-ligioning eco-political compassionate communication
for cooperatively empowering
community developing 
health/wealth-care systems

And collaboratively enlightening
wealth/health care EarthJustice 
local/global 
poli/economic 
polypathic win/win 
cooperative network development.

Colchester
must already include
attorneys
and public/private health-care financial investors
and business LeftBrain dominant win/lose 
non-fundamentalistic moderators,
more win/win evangelizers,
mentors anticipating other multiculturally ecosystemic thinkers
and collaborative feelers,
deductive/inductive balanced teachers and parents,
preachers and win/lose penitents
capable of 20/20 envisioning/revisioning
win/win compassionate communication

For healthier and wealthier
resilient,
indigenously and multiculturally resonant,
 
[post-pandemic lose/lose, 
post-win/lose 
anti-ecologically misanthropocentric risks]

For post-pandemic climate health
For Long-term democratic 
wealth-care.
