Who Shows Up

Who shows up 
for cooperative health opportunities,
reducing pathologically competing risks?

Who shows up
for extended family potluck meals?

Who shows up
to give and take
during local pot-latch
cooperative council meetings?

Who shows up
to embrace and invite healthy WinWin climates,
wealth arrayed lilies
in health-invested fields?

Who shows up
for PositivEnergy Democracy
rather than NegativEntropic Anarchy?

Who shows up
to listen and then speak
all our polycultural
WinWin
Common ZeroZone Ground,
MotherLands,
Local AnimaMundi?

Who shows up
for 2020 restoring therapeutic justice revolutions?
Already spiraling cooperatively forward
to 4040 MultiLateral Peace,
sacred/secular EarthTribe
Network Resolutions--
Peaceful EarthTribe Resilience

Who shows up
to grow green eco-resonance
by starving red ego-ignorance?

Who shows up
ready for WinWin FutureSearch
multicultural opportunities?

Who shows up
already cooperatively engaged
and not competing to co-mentor Trust?

Who shows up
LeftWork and RightPlay
reconnecting co-arising Faith?

Who speeds up
spiritual DNA
with natural RNA
co-empowering healthy 
Left/Right 
West/East
North/South
bodymind-map Futures?

Who shows up
by graceful eternity's creolizing invitation
rather than adrenaline's
anger-fear colonizing demands?

Who and what has shown up
within cooperatively integrating
multiculturally co-investing
sacred historical ground ego-organicizing
secular eco-engaged fantasizing
You?

Interesting socio political reflection ... Powerfully penned ... Inspite of repeated use of certain expressions, I felt interested in going through more than once ...

Thanks so much. Especially helpful to me, "Inspite of repeated use of certain expressions" My redundant word choice is intentional but I have trouble assessing how much is too much.
