Notes About The Poem

Inspiraled by "Spiral Dynamics: Mastering values, leadership, and change" by Don Edward Beck and Christopher C. Cowan, Blackwell, 1996. "Exploring the New Science of Memetics" which, now post-millennially, reads more like predicting the new ecopolitical science of enthymematic dialectical regenerative climate therapy.

Spiral Climate Health Dynamics

Beck and Cowan, with Graves,
wrote the Spiral Dynamics of memes,
or cognitive-affective enculturation climates
of Left-Right as Yang-Yin spiraling equivalence,
or maybe not,
I'm still not quite sure
how much I am seeing and hearing into their words.

For example, from page 56,
I was going through their evolving octave of historical colors
of humane-divine time,
beginning with
"Beige-a state of nature"
"Purple-[spiritually dynamic] mysterious [sometimes enlightening] and frightening"
"Red-[LeftYang dominant] tough and dangerous like a [WinLose evolutionary] survivalist jungle"
"Blue-directed by a higher [prosperously regenerative v impoverished degenerative, monotheistic] power"
"Orange-full of viable [optimally WinWin cooperative-integrative polyculturing, inter-religioning] alternatives"
"Green- shared [EarthComPassionate] habit[at] of all humanity [ego-mind-spirit within, as all of EarthTribe's eco-body-nature without]"
"Yellow-at risk of chaotic [Anthropocene] collapse [into further LeftBrain/RightWing monocultural/monotheistic violent dissociation from indigenous AnthroSpirit/EarthNature health/wealth nondualistic wisdom]"
"Turquoise- a single living [panentheistic EarthGaia sacred/organic +1/-(-0) ego/ecosystemic cobinary copassionate-mind/co-pleasuring-body ] entity"

A win/win opportunity for complex multicultural
ecopolitical
ecological
cooperative
systemic peace development

where 'yellow' paranoid yin-repressed RightBrain depressives
"learn how to be [systemic trauma] free
but also [regenerative-health] principled
seek[ing] the [bicameral turquoise Tao] order
beneath [and deeply within, and above, both out and in, midway,
inbetween, wu wei] Earth's apparent [cosmological dualdark notnot LoseAnthroMind/LoseEarthBody] chaos.

Maybe win/win endorphins
produce inspiraling polyphonic color strings
reconnecting trust's pronoia evolution 
through regenerate humane-mind/divine-body win/win enculturation 
emerging Ego/Eco nurturing 
timelessly co-present consciousness 
of therapy-informed Tipping Points
Tao rebalancing
therapy v trauma
pronoia v paranoia
polycultural climate health 
re-ligioning restoration.
