Neglecting Democratic Health

I'm feeling some civil
democratic health
neglect

To re-member
monocultural anthropocentrism
is a mental health crisis

In our U.S. Win/Lose normative
miseducational systems,

In our anti-democratic
unhealthy parenting,
self caregiving,
uncare-receiving deformative win/lose
devolutionary anti-thesis

AntiMessianic
to prophecy ReGenerative Earth's unParadise demise,
ecologically degenerative
and theologically rationalized:

Earth isn't Heaven
as Nature isn't spiritual Nurture,

Derived from ancient win/lose
RedYang autocratic DeathCultures,
warlike celebrations of anthropocentric hubris,
while Earth witnesses
win/lose intention
devolving into loss
and wounds
and suffering
and further loss
and anger about inevitable ego-centered mortality
and fear of win/win multiculturing
ecofeminist cooperative co-passionate indulgence.

Our good/bad faith community clergy
and lay empower/disempower elders
with too much patriarchal capitalistic 
monoculturing apartheid experience,
become too comfortable with economic assumptions
of win/lose norms
to advocate for win/win democratically inclusive
empowerment
and other ego health-invested values
to consistently and cooperatively support
and model
and teach
and feel
and think
and preach win/win compassionate and civil
democratic health,

And not judge and blame and shame ourselves
and each other
into further win/lose present unforgiving
and merciless obsessions 
and future self-righteous compulsions,

Democratic cooperative co-investments
in health care systems
as if also a spiritual win/win theological insight
into sensory-sexual-regenerative everyday sacred experience,
as if multiculturally a natural win/win ecological awareness
within win/win integral bicameral
civil multicultural 
cooperative ecosystemic support of all
evidence
of transubstantiating multi-regenerational 
transportation
communication
communal re-digesting nutrition systems
co-investing cooperative
health-wealthing past-present 
re-creative experience

Congruent,
not cognitively/affectively dissonant,
with collaboratively layered webs
of sensory/sexual inter-relational
information/exflowation of our light/power sensory skin
interfacing ego within
and economic
eco-political win/win 
regenerative systems without

Win/Lose 
Left/Right Both/And
polypathic/polyphonic/calculative dialogue
(and way less monoculturing LeftBrain supremacist debate)
lose/lose degenerative
polyvagal neurological dark sensation
shadowy and ominous intuitions
paranoid conspiracy touch and feelings
associated with taste and smell
with hear and see
more compassionately unveils win/win non-violently
as green new deal civic compassions
also empower 
and enlighten
values of ultra-nonviolent multicultural communication

Also congruent with
Earth's interdependent regenerative climate webs
of healthy democratic
ecosystemic care
for humane/divine
natural/spiritual reassociative
re-ligioning win/win neural eco-political systems
embedded in
win/win regenerative multi-generational sensory experience,

win/lose cooperative therapeutic
positive social-psychology-neurology 
co-attachment systemic management,

Avoiding lose/lose degenerative
nurture/nature bilaterally predictive
and also redactive
not-not win/win polyculturing 
outcomes informative 
and exflowing,
empowering 
and enlightening,
deductive 
and inductive,
breathing out
to breath in again
reconnecting
revolutioning
bicameral balancing
ego/eco-dialogue
yang/yin-feminist resonant 
and integral capacity

To further Earth's systemic interdependent
and Ego's LeftBrain individuated
best Self/Other GoldenRules
for ego/eco-healthy democratic co-governance

And wisest perpetuating win/win interests,
cooperative co-investments
empowering,
enlightening,
re-educating
health-wealth win/win co-parenting,
democratically healthy
choice-making template
for ultra non-violent local
through global extending families,
for civil health
through civic cooperatively-owned wealth
of EarthTribe green ancient through new
win/win compassionate ecosystemic values

Where positive secular-felt obsession
with empowering regenerative systemic wins
and enlightening collaborative successes
need not predict overpowering 
desecrating 
autonomous 
egocentric 
win/lose compulsive 
bipolar ego-patriarchal
sole autocratic
narcissistic
anthropocentric possession

Of Earth's total cooperative net-value,
rather than Ego's gross competitive
win/lose 
self-righteous over-empowerment
through LeftBrain dominance
educating monoculturalism for verbal-privileged
win/lose communication/non-communicating 
chaotic and dissonant 
red-hot 
rightwing eco-political 
social-psycho-neurological
climate degenerative violence,
voices,
unhealthy choices,
overly competitive 
straight privileged white noises.
