Much of the underlying theme associating healthy humor with feelings of cooperative trust has been informed by a contemporary, yet classic, political empowerment theory that the underlying emotive prerequisite to develop and maintain any truly democratically healthy relationship is trust--more important even than feelings of loyalty, and felt needs of uniformity more than cooperatively-held unity.  This provokes a consciousness of left-brain investment in Uniform States in creative/divisive tension with right-brain investment in compassionately United-Interdependent States, of America, geopolitical hemispheres, Earth, extended families, associated species, etc.

The Republican congressmen, and I do mean white privileged straight men, came to their Democratic opposition concerned about how depressing December can be, and all of winter, come to think and feel of dark discerning Advent, So maybe we could stage a comedic debate about Trumpism, To say the most extravagant truths and untruths and anti-truths repeatedly aimed across each other's non-listening brows, to speak to American voters back home of how much more reasonable they are As they learn to transparently discuss what we pretend to vulnerably debate, as if we truly cared about what our great great great great great great grandfathers thought and felt about great enlightenment era liberal democratic theory rooted in theoretical without much experiential cooperative co-investment, social-political well-being more deeply rooted in inclusive trust and not disloyal royal mistrust and not unconstitutional anti-trust against global democratic social, psychological, ecological-theological health, Wealth of trusting solidarity subcultures and subclimates, lefts and rights, global ecology and local economy, all more cooperatively amusing and good-humored, like Ben Franklin more and like Benedict Arnold less. The greenish Democrats felt this white nationalist comedy proposal a great impeaching drama idea to be staged immediately with straight-forward urgency To defend universal mental health-care constitutional well-being inside covenants and other serious bicameral empowering matters. So, while winking left-eyed, these farcical RightWing stand up comedians loudly and repeatedly reminded horrible Green Democratic Predators, Persecutors, Pretentious Prosecutors of True Public Health and Safety, they are thereby, and heretoforth, staging a painfully tragic revolutionary Coup, without the military, just yet. The Democrats respond, repeatedly underlining a most portentous liberal educated view: The climatic sky is falling, but you want to argue about differences between our great great great great great great grandfathers, overly exercised about capitalist political theory, while all white male privileged and many, if not most, slave-owners and hopelessly straight, some of whom actually sold off property (now liberally known as non-elite labor force) to pay off their cooperative membership dues to financially launch this non-partisan revolutionary confection known as the U.S. of A. Anyway, why does the prospect of President Pence lead you to so quickly claim a revolutionary Coup, a betrayal of your Republican RightWing straight white privileged incorporated patriarchy that nominated this unlikely anointed duality? Now rabid Republicans smell some not so funny meat: You have hated Trump since we profitably nominated him and his Christianity Today muzzling and smug side-kick praying for a better heterosexual Rapturous Day. This kangaroo Pelosi court is not about green and clean and healthy people plants and planet; It is also not about narcissism and anthropocentrism and xenophobia and greed and dissociative psychosis and climate anxiety, and over-populated rabidity, and unhealthy patriarchal morbidity, and globally tragic theology and other LeftBrain too-dominant associated pathologies. But, this charade instead reminds of your original ill-intent against the cooperative win/win healthcare needs of The People! Almost half of whom actually voted for this Trumpian self-promoting Messiah of monocultural climate pathology Denialism, not realizing that underneath his InExperienced Emperor clothes, lurked a naked anti-trust of Other, anti-SacredTrust in Transparent Truth, against Health/Wealth Faith, Invested in AntiHope for a Great Unraveling Body of AntiChrist Orange and Red UnHealthy over-heated straight WhiteMale and Earth CoFragility, depression, reactionary repression Where once lived Right-tragic and Left-comedic AnthroPrivilege of conscious good-humored Communication and healthier wisdom about Fake AnthroSupremacy of unconscious BadHealth DisConnection, Lose/Lose absence of wealthy associations, cooperative co-investments, past through future win/win green democratic communions, secularLeft and sacredRight health-humored. The Great Impeachment Debate was discussed and win/win v lose/lose v win/lose non-partisan discerned by multicultural mediators, restorative justice green-economy pundits, permaculture design integral-ZeroZone value optimization ecologists, LaughTherapy compassionate Buddhists, Tao NonZeroSum NonViolent NonDualists, Ego/EcoFeminist Therapists, Indigenous FireCircles, Owls and Hawks and Eagles and Ravens and Crows, Air and Fire, Soil and Water, Atmosphere breezes stirring deep and wide Waters resiliently seeking Resonance, Health, Truth, Beauty, ReCommunications, Sweet ProPeachments Ways and Win/Win Means. A consensus quickly emerged; Networks, organic systems, polypathic energy democracies felt this Impeachment Debate was over-acted, under-presenced; over-staged, under cooperatively framed; overly rhetorical, under musical, or even lyrical; overly repetitive and yet under-resiliently resonant, And under-nourishing of good humor, under-watered for long-term green health, under-fed by compassion and ego/ecotherapeutic bicameral intent and warm accompaniment happiness. With inappropriate debate themes for teaching small children cooperative dialogue skills and other forms of civil green communion trust suitable for growing any healthy democracy, We found bipartisan support to mutually stop under-investing in a wealthy sense of bilateral tragic-humor to re-empower potential climates now sadly disempowering.

Hello Poet! There is so much brewing there! This poem has so much to say. The veil of U.S. fabric to tear. It's now 'cool' to turn and to fray the foundation of Soveriegn U.S.A. Do you hear Laurel or Yanni? Is the dress gold or blue Arrogant priveleged men or Nanny The people, too, can forget about the who. I really loved your lines here, when you said this! "repeatedly aimed across each other's non-listening brows, to speak to American voters back home of how much more reasonable they are"
