Rev. Gerald Dillenbeck Poet Parallelismus Membrorum

More Peaceful Pleasures

We are most wisely appreciated
and anticipated
in the press 
of public fame
and the stress 
of personal gain

Not 
by the quantity 
of our autocratic popularity

But
by the quality
of our democratic integrity.

In this peacefully pleasing warm regard,
perhaps we poignantly reconsider

Quantities are measured
by cognition performing 
verbally recognized passions
while qualities are felt
through intuition engaging 
preverbally connecting pleasures

Defaming risks of loss
emerge through systemic trauma 
disassociation infamy
against opportunities to gain
through transformative
reassociation favored fame

Extensively requalifying
EarthMother's therapeutic potential
for democratic integrity.
