Where Do Bullies Heal

Where do bully pulpits go when the only audience right or left is silence? How would a narcotic Bully speak after wonder and awed silence return to anxious quiet within a healing ecological culture of intentional BadNews shunning? How could these heated wounds of belated excommunication lead to hibernating repentance? For win/lose rightwing autocratic unhealthy much too liberally kleptocratic, competitive anti-social capital uncooperative over-infestment How could this late so great made in USA healthy deep listening multicultural global society hear such wounded repentance? Without recognizing our own stone throwing sins of punishing addictions to revenge, anger about unhealthy win/lose divesting of multicultured EarthBeauty and HeavenCooperativity, fear of those not yet known, hate for those not yet cherished, greed to live largest, longest and best, To be granted monotheistic last minute mercy from torment for publicly pardoning Patriarchy's own capital-investment errors without admitting more than slim possibility of personally culpable, and alarmingly illegal, not to mention immoral corporate error For too hopefully entertaining magical eternal rebirth against liberty for Other's personal changes, yet for making your own ego-identified death unimpeachably great again. How might a wealthy polycultured ecosystem restore win/win justice for a repentant win/lose nationalistically empowered Bully? Now engaged in cooperative social capital reinvestment in ecological climates of healthiest wealth, Now co-investing in silently listening to all sacred voices and win-inside/win-outdoor ecological healthy democratic choices While bowing to sacred hope of faith-rooted wealthy Trees, absorbing Earth's nutritional co-relationships Breathing out compassionate green communications between heavenly light and winds and fire, and Earth's deep and wide cooperative powers and warm wet waters of ecofeminist systemic wombs, Seeds of therapeutic wisely silent compassion composting EarthJustice As anciently witnessed by light worshiping Trees silently and shyly, humbly and gratefully absorbing social capital through subterranean healthy root systems, And never unwisdom of listening to uncaring win/lose ambivalence, wrong v right branched dominant, co-arising anxious Bully Pulpits.
