still two fingers
dumb, not speaking to me
a numb okay
grasping utensils with one hand
not a lefty, that’s right
A sustained mystery for more long-term resilient cohabitation
is how to exchange high tolerance for ambiguity,
with, and not for, active curiosity about ambidexterity,
vulnerable dipolarity both/anding transparent bipolarity,
merging win/lose stuckness
in our emerging collective illusion
of ego-identity's fundamental
sacred
monocultural autonomy
Autonomy of identity
as if both necessary and sufficient
before humane/divine multicultural interdependence
could grow more robustly possible,
Rather than this Other historical way around
healthy yinterdependent yindivid-yangation
prior to egalitarian sacred identity
actually co-passioning
healthy dualistic potentiality,
While still in EarthMother's
ego/ecofeminist sanctuary
of integrity,
secular/sacred co-passioning Womb.
A more sustained mystery of more long-term resilient cohabitation
is exchanging high tolerance for ambiguity,
with, and not for, active curiosity about co-acclimating
trans-regenerations of nurturing timelessness.
Gone are the days of simplicity
Open are the times of complexity
I must relate
There is no debate
I must develop a sense of ambidexterity
