Rebuilding Paradise

Paradise
like Rome
is not built
and not rebuilt
and rebuilt
and redeveloped
and healed
and redeemed
in one 24-hour
cycle
and recycle
and revolving
round day v night,

And/or 
appreciatively regarding both day
and dualdark
rich and fertile 
souled and soiled
recycling night.

So too
my personal
and political
and economic
and ecological
and theologically reformed dawn
of unconditional win/win regard,
like God's light
and not EarthMother's
and not Buddha's
and maybe not Allah's
and not Atman's
and not Gaia's
and not Diana's
and not Blue Heron's
and not Dragonfly's,
has become Christian Deformed Evangelistic
LeftBrain dominantly complicated
in chaotic will-powered efforts
to resiliently hang onto cooperatively co-invested peace
for more than an inter-religious bodhisattva day,
or even a polytheistic sacred hour

Instead
we are distracted
dismayed
by chronic win/lose dogmatic stress,
By early childhood trauma experiences
of community original win/lose sin
unrest

Capitalized by zero-sum competitive
closed cause/effect linear 
either/or bipolarizing fundamentalism,
either unconditionally regarded
as saved,
or guilty of unredeemed evil sinister
cynicism

Discontinuously disregarded
as dementedly damned:
too sacredly win/win holistic
unrealistic,
too round paradoxical circling,
too wide open-systemic
intuitive ecofeminist,
too polytheistic
pantheistic goddess worshipers
mother tree huggers
womanly unmanly mystics
full of wicked womb witchery
emasculating
slutty butchery.

Original sin
remains monotheistically addicted
to patriarchal fear and capitalist revenge
about panentheistically sensuous
intuitively introverted Eve
and big black sensually seductive Serpents
offering MotherEartha's nutritious Apple Pie
in sun enlightened sky

Various Mosaic Law reformers
including Jesus of Nazareth
teaching and prophesying against 
Patriarchal-Capital monopolistic pretensions
inspiring LeftBrain dominant commercial
commodified imbalance,
have suffered and died
too powerfully bereft,
polytheistically
indigenously sacred
returning to wisely rooted 
Holy Nature/Spirit 
win/win creolizing co-passion
and active multicultural 
EarthTribe co-investment

Deep rooted in dualdark soul
and soil of love's co-present
peakish daylight causes
and valleyed nightdream effective
affective 
and reflective experience

Reforming my win/lose 
original zero-sum
competitive
judgmental
predative
self-righteous
greedy leftover assumptions
about humanity's essential step
away from win/win Paradise,
our mortal Achilles' heel
of ego-self v. eco-other, unhealed,

Rather than ego+eco sacred EarthMother,
primal potential resolved
without overwhelming lose/lose disintegration

Feeding win/win integrity's 
felt regeneration,
and all not-quite-so-original
win/lose in-between historical
hysterical compromises

Round Win/Win
Win/Lose
Lose/Lose octaves
of whole 
open sensory
globally universal 
organic paradising 
faradizing bilateral neuro-systems
nested and networked
working cooperatively co-invested
co-passionately
co-relationally
co-intelligently 
co-therapeutically together
better than monotheistically divided
judged,
poles transcendent anthro
v immanent sacred Earth 
apart.

A win/win Holy
Open Whole EarthSystem,
non-zero sum cooperatively co-invested
Original Paradise Theory
of polycultural wu-wei communion
feels like it could polyculturally attract
inter-religious
and meta-paradigmatic 
enthymematic
health and safety advocates
octave sound and vision scientists
multicoloring scaled and rhythmed and patterned artists
octave harmony/dissonance musicians
dialectical muses
cultural comedians
climate fracturing tragedians

Integrating our capital,
our gut,
and our sacred grown round root,
and full core curious intelligence
pregnant with polypathic paradigms,
both secular and sacred narratives,
myths about integral Paradise potential,
transcendent Heavens
of original win/win systemic
sensory health
sensual wealth
sexual Paradise potential
for regenerative
unconditional regard,
resilient Non discard
ego-death through robust resilience
re-absorbing cooperative brilliant dawning resonance,
not so much competitive nightmare dissonance.

Yet,
somehow,
despite all our narratives
that healthy Paradise of Love
overpowers unhealthy dark demons of hate,
God's monotheistic
anthro-exceptionalist
not at all unconditional 
win/lose judgmental disregard
for lesser creatures,
like my own disassociation,
remains patriarchally
and capital addicted
to long term degenerative trends
gut-wrenching mortal loser bends

Like suicidal ideation,
Traumatic Stress DisOrder,
corporate and corporal greed
for egosupreme comforting security,
anthro-supreme aloneness,
sex-sensual secular repression,
sacred ecofeminist polytheistic suppression,
nationalistic straight white exceptionalism,
monoculturally self-righteous genocide
and, now, LeftBrain commodifying EarthMatricide
short-term ecopolitical returns
for underreporting risks
of global ecocide

Blind 
and deaf
to natural
spiritual feelings
longing for Earth Matrimonial Sacred ReParadise

Needing resilient health and peaceful 
polytheistic global systems of care,
unconditional ecofeminist sacred regard
wanting universal salvific health
through unitarian yintegral wealth
of cooperatively co-invested
PolyCultural-Communion

NonViolently communicating
win/win panentheistic
Here/Now
Space/Time
Body/Mind
SpatialLeft/TemporalRight
Nature/Spirit 
Outside/Inside Paradise
fomenting virulent indigenous wisdom
restoring unconditionally resilient 
EarthTribe warm
and well-moisturized regard

Which,
like Rome
and like Peace,
is not built
and rebuilt,
informed
and exflowed,
experienced
and re-membered,
resiliently thought
and resonantly felt,
in one 24-hour bodhisattva 
wu-wei day.
