Poem
Why do I feel like school visits are usually a waste of time, and restorative health assessment visits, too, or is it professional visiting in general that bothers me? What I will see and smell and hear and touch is only what you feel safe to show me. Your best professional face when you are in charge of your environment, of yourself, and all is as it would best be in your safe and healthy mind and body presence. Yet what I need to see is how this place, these people, this teacher or therapist or mentor, or would-be bodhisattva, responds to my challenged child's anger and fear To my own anger about how we have and have not been treated in our past Challenged by your own angers about your past fears about life's future for yourself for your kids, for sacred Earth's othering caregivers. How will you respond the 99th time my daughter poops on herself then laughs while you wipe her nasty stinky ass, berated by her own memories of past such humiliations? S/he hopes you too might find humor in our co-arising trauma bent therapeutic intent S/he needs even more resilient compassion in your Positive Political Psychology presence in this moment of your empathy with her bipolar lack of sympathy for your win/win preferred neuro-biology. Just how good might it feel to give a smack on the ass of all angry fear-filled, chronically stressed and sleep deprived, too-often critical-event PTSD co-victims of inhumane life's unkind ego- and anthro-supremacist politically empowering/disempowering history? How do you think that unprofessional retributive aggression choice would not hurt both of you? all of us? where and when we could choose to live fully in this win/win vulnerable transparent moment of unboundaried curiosity Of co-empathic trauma-informed awareness steeped in ancient synergetic diverse neurosystemic practice Of fully interdependent win/win co-passionate intent when and where most needed and neglected and abused. Abuse of your non-professional and deeply personal love and competent therapeutic promise, most accessible markers of past angers about life's depressing negatively impressing repressing, suppressing fears of too soon terrorizing mind and body peaceful professionally elite resonance. Visiting schools, and other public campaigns, to experience our best therapeutic restorative justice practices has little to reveal about where we most vulnerably transparently curiously mind passionately body pleasantly live Personally and professionally formed, neurosystemically shaped Co-empathically encultured by PastMind Angers/Passions and FutureBody Fears/Pleasures, 24/7 Including when and where I feel like school visits, and other LeftBrain dominant campaigns, are usually a waste of trauma-informed compassion pleasing healthy neurosystemic peak experience potential win/win optimization time.
