Poem Title:
Poem
We have all heard about diverse roads and rivers, currents and currencies, investments and co-investments less traveled, worn, tried. The law and order rules of the road and downstream river most rowed are politically and economically empowered of, by, and for punishing disorder, dissonance, uncivilized behaviors, sociopathic paranoia and madness. Yet the Golden Rules of upstream ecological sacred grace speak of divine gift economies and power of mutual cooperativity along a Golden Ratio Equivalency PolyPath of mutual cooperativity. On this road less notnot traveled we notice investments and disinvestments that can no longer fit within individual ego-sized positive containers, intended to be used only one time, and then quietly disposed of under our own independent authority and responsibilities for restoring our accountable co-presence back toward this upstream river's timeless Source: grace, and racism and religious-monoculturing supremacy, anthrocentric health assurance, and prejudicial sexisms, salvation of the World, and condemning judgment of Earth, reward, and punishment, pride, and yet also prejudice, restoration, and retribution love, and hate-marketing, peace, but also war-mongering, gratitude, but also bad attitude. So I try to notice which way I am heading, and remember no one chooses a unidirectional, monocultural path not first and frequently made by others, whether Business As Usual, or that Other Sacred UpStream One, for those born as gifts to carry our gifts forward along this narrow double-binding polypath.
