Rev. Gerald Dillenbeck Poet Political Verse

Great Left-Right Dialogue

Life is a work and play in progress
toward interdependent democratic
economic,
political,
social,
psychological,
biological,
and ecological investment choices

And/or lovely life is a too long and too short defaulting divestment
terminating in unwork and unplay dying process

Each day,
each life,
each story
like chapter and verse of sacred scripture
I can see and hear as perfectly wise and healthy
just as it is
already inviting me
with interdependent us
back together
for more and higher and deeper
outer and inner cooperative climate investments

And yet
I cannot feel or believe
we are yet together pre- and re-intending each day
each life
each sacred health chapter
to extend secular purpose
and sacred wealth meaning
toward co-invitation

Each left-brain economic and political life
becoming win/win intended progress,
And each right-brain ego death 
succumbing to curiously evolving/devolving process;
My memorialized grief 
predicting Earth future's contrasting gratitude,
our positive healthy attitude 
redacting grief's historic investments/divestments,
regenerations/degenerations

So life and death
are usually in-between
each compassioning dipolar Other.
