Here and There

We are here
and sometimes there
for each other.
How else could we support
this glad global network
of becoming?

Health is here
when abundant life is not over there,
just past some eastern sunrise horizon,
while I sulk and stain my past
missed opportunities
stalking toward, and balking against,
our appalling future
dodging unnecessary climate pathologies,
paranoid and dogmatic ethologies,
faithless loser psychologies,
frantic lose/lose unsurvival ecologies,
upside down logicalities,
out-chucked enculturing mythologies
settling for Left-Yang either/or toleration management
when we are designed for both/and
natural spiritualities.

We are rightmind here
and sometimes left disembodied rememory there
for each suffering other.

How else could we win/win support
this glad local/global health network
of being/becoming inter-relationships?
