Inspired by Sherri Mitchell's Sacred Instructions, especially p. 69.

When I allow myself to become an understoried note, I hear our symphony co-relationally composed of rhythms patterns pauses silence cacophony measures color tone tunes harmonic, dissonant, diminished, subconcious sub-objective underlying creation stories recreationally sung together better than just loudly marching apart, This bilateral muse awareness releases me from fundamentalistic win/lose salvation stories and allows this ego-moment to live freely, yet securely interdependent, co-passionately win/win present. When I ego live connected within co-present eco-source, I hear no impossible disconnect, no hard-line severance between nature-left and spirit-right, no bipolar either/or deductive reductive conclusion; There is, instead, only both/and boundless win/win integral possibility and endless round timeless ego/eco-rational interdependent truths.
