Earth Sanctuary
I live in a curious network of relationships,
most quietly quite lovely
and a few more intensely challenging
unrelation shipped-out
In here both/and building awareness
is our non-verbal norm
of gesture
intent
confluent action
with congruent thought
reactions,
While large-scale one-way either true or false
linear messages spread out like win-or-lose economies
and politically powerful influences
to commodify,
to perpetuate tomorrow's consumer of either/or noise
Not as courageously authentic
and curiously integral,
holistic
as our original Earth Paradise
networking win/win potentiality
reweaving shared reality
So much positive opportunity
for improvement;
So little negative risk
of narcissistic unmovement.
I hear far more win/lose
than I can possibly win/win co-respond.
This is both intensely challenging
and yet, curiously,
quietly quite lovely
Raw spots
predicting
sweet spots
spaces
sensational places
for growing integrity's healing potential.
