Preach From Experience
You could tell me your differences,
beat me down with distortions,
in-between fundamentally certain
of Either/Or
Yes or No
Stop or Go;
and never "and"
You also faithfully know sacred reasons
for secularized natural seasons.
You could whisper your silent discernments
in-between Both/And nuanced
curiously growing seasons
of sacred climate doubt
I could be heard and appreciated
beyond self-graced listening
for win/win mind is also spirit
Health is also wealth
is also bicameral balancing options
for bi-curious co-empathic
communicating operations
For win/win longing nations
and tribes
and species to rebound from this precipice
thrusting forward further secularizing
decontextualizing
monopolistically monotheistic
Earth-desecrating AnthroSupremacy
SelfAppointed Sacred Rights
to play anthropocentric win/lose games
against co-passionate MotherNature's HolyCene
Remains unhappy
with dogmatic rightwing Straight MonoTheism
defensively Patriarchal-Capitalist
entitled White King's English
for re-interpreting MiddleEastern
eco-political narratives
and wisdom literature
and natural/spiritual
physical/mental nondualistic poetry
Monoculturally misappropriated
if not also sensed
internally sacred panentheistic
Promulgating polyculturally robust
creolizing values
not whatever transcendent hierarchical
colonizing disvalues
patriarchally privileged
monotheistic
misogynistically vengeful
extractively punishing demonic
dark lose/lose degenerative WuWay
The opposite of truly free
to healthy choose
Earth's final sacred Revelation
Rather than stuck in dogmatic
God's static never-changing word
Hell that burns in an eternal fire
of LeftBrain weaponed words
Yet, Earth will eventually Lose
capacity to support Win/Win juicy life
as we have outgrown Her
Yet, we need not hurry
trauma and win/lose stress
and environmental resource wars along,
distracted by inability to learn
global climate pandemic lessons
There is no resilient health care
for humans
without resonant wealth care
from nonhumans
Reclaimed a sacred WiseWoman
from her PostTraumatic Teacher
and PsychoDynamic Preacher
actively seeking EcoPolitical Win/Win Leaders
To re-member Whole Open EarthTribe's sacred
historical experience
struggling with restoring
and restorying
entropic closed
secularized EarthScientist Demise
Yang's LeftBrain privileged
monoculturing
lack of bicamerally balanced
health communicating
resiliently wealthy
post-traumatic win/win
curiously active LeftThought,
but not negatively reactive RightFelt,
bipartisan co-mediated experience
If I could teach you my differences,
sometimes beat down with distortions,
in-between fundamentally certain
of Either/Or Left
hopes also for Both/And Right co-passions
Yes and No
Stop and Go;
and almost never 0-sum
lack of panentheistic healing soul
As we also faithfully know
indigenously wise
sacred gifted reasons
for secularized
natural shifting seasons.
