Poem
I have become haunted by therapeutic wonder, within wonder, surrounded by Wonder, made of Wonder these past few days and traumatically troubling nights. I have also become terrorized by vindication, vindictive Win/Lose threatening relationships learned from retributive justice philosophers who are also parents and teachers, so also soldiers and autonomous entrepreneurs and Win/Lose economic and competing political leaders vindicating themselves, vindictive ourselves against others who stand in our colonizing, rather than creolizing, way. Robin Wall Kimmerer shares a Wonder dream in a village market where fresh bread and strawberries are exchanged in a gift economy of gratitude at what we have made with God's MotherEarth, "the merchants were just intermediaries passing on gifts from the earth." (Braiding Sweetgrass, p. 29) Gift economies, when healthy and fair, mature and cooperatively-owned and managed, learn everything about Win/Win Wonder and lose sight of traumatic Win/Lose much more explicit Lose/Lose vindictive ecopolitics. When love is optimizing we find no room for punitive vindications, criminalizations. Wonder is the land of Restorative Justice, Permaculture Design, CoOperative NotNon(0)Sum Feminist PostMillennial Economics, ReGenerative (0)Soul ReVolutions rather than same tired DeGenerative Vindications of retributive justice and angry, vengeful, patriarchal gods, false idols of anything less than both metaphysical spiritual Wonder universes and physical natural planet EarthMother Therapeutic CoOperatives with loving Wonder as Original Constitutional Intent of Orthodox Commandments toward love but not the AntiChrist Jihad of retributive ethnocentric vindictiveness. God/Allah never play Lose/Lose games of mutual vindictiveness, retributive justice positions that settle for means to destroy, without thought of how to first love in a conscious state of Wonder for this Win/Win gift economy of restorative justice invited by Gaia (0)Soul Principles of nondualistic philosophies, therapeutic religions promoting Positive Win/Win Wonder spiritualities, municipalities devoiding fake-spiritual monoculturing paths that would settle for mere vindication of one's right to breathe and speak freely, when these could be multiculturally concelebrated. We individually, and as a species of potential Wonder and Therapeutic Love, have this fundamental choice to make each minute of each revolving day to see ourselves and our environments as justified from Win/Lose retribution or justified through mutual Win/Win restoration. These last few days, and months, here in the USA, thinking about, Does patriotism invite restorative justice more and vindictive punishing blaming and shaming less? I have also stood in stunned wonder about how our Elders' political and economic independence from vindictive oppression of royalist plutocrats provided such a rich fertile nationalism for further vindictive plutocratic oppression over our natural world, de-sacralized, reduced from nature-spirit nondual Wonder to further vindictive climates for further oppression, suppression, victimization, criminalization, commodification, bought and sold futures for the highest bottom-line survival of the latest quasi-selected administration. This is not what I expected from an Office pledging patriotic allegiance to the more perfectly uniting health and welfare polyculturing democracy of and for WinWin Earth-restorative justice. It has been said it is our healthy role of governance to make it easier for compatriots to do mutual good, to restore Win/Win just relationships of mutual Wonder through cultures where gratitude is planted and watered and harvested so that monocultures of vindictive ingratitude will evaporate like the paranoid patriarchal fascinations from which they broke through our normativity of regenerate Wonder. Restorative healing processes are also liturgically co-messianic transubstantiations of Wonder Love Grace Non(0)Sum CoOperative EarthTribe Peace as Ego-EcoJustice restoring Eden's potential balance through gift redistribution restoring Wonder about benign nondual predation while actively pondering what therapeutic gifts do I most owe myself and others and our shared multi-generational future? What restorative gifts do we most owe all Nations this peace day of Win/Win Wonder?
