Rev. Gerald Dillenbeck Poet Parallelismus Membrorum

Virtuous Circles

Does life seem to you,
as love does to we,
that virtuous circles
engage healing intent

While viscious squares
of bad-tempered stomping
marches much less gayly
toward escalating drama
with harmful trauma
and persistent
discontent

Positive engagement
does not engage negative performers
as if some lives
are divinely entitled
to redemptively matter more,
and thereby attract glowing floodlights

Upstaging those worshipping lesser
unstraight
unmale
unwhite gods
and goddesses of trust
and compassion
without boundaries

Backstage,
opening opaque
and closing vulnerable curtains
breathes diverse gender icons,
sexualized idols

Muses 
recomposing noted feelings
from inside out,
hard erect warriors
embracing soft receptive catchers,
absorbent empathizers

Integrity's copassionate healers,
pulling and pushing together
1 way
with 0 means.
