Best Animistic Poems

What is patriotism?

Pride of and for national, and maybe cultural, superiority.
Maybe superior health caring integrity?

What is nationalism?

Usually positive values about monocultural 
monotheistic
monopolistic
monochromatic identity,
but I guess national health charism
could also include negative evaluations,
begging for more international 
interdependent freedom 
empowered to do wealth good.

What is resiliently good?

Not...

I don't think it's just me.
I find myself challenged to change LeftBrain cognitive beliefs,
languaged abstractions of personal feelings,
perhaps because it is not possible to change Right Brain's
Elder feelings of co-passionate trust
where dipolar co-arising positive pleasure
is not dissonant noisy pathology.

I discover this issue as more of...

Wise Elders are patient,
fully embrace compassion's communication
and health care
of climates and cultural landscapes,
animated persons,
sacred spaces,
organic places,
panentheistic plants
and monotheistic planet
impassioned hopes
and pleasant dreams
rebuilding positive faith.

Wise Elders co-passionately listen
for karmic grace of love peaks 
overflowing.

If Wise Revolutionaries 
for revivalist change,
clearing murky swamps,
then WiseElder re-connecting evolutionaries
toward perennial peace
restoring...

Not to play any blame game,
in this our new co-evolutionary capacity
for LeftBrained Language CommunioNation
long become YangDominant associated
with monotheistic 'civilization',
aristocratic anthrosupremacism,
including Earth's newer colonizing history
of evolution by Orthodox Moral Elitism.

Processes of GodWord supremacy
became belligerently associated 
with political evolution
by patriarchal totalitarianism

Fear- and anger-mongering
with dissociative WinLose 
trauma-generating

Life as active love 
evolves toward more polycultural communication,
across both species and time,
within Earth’s Solar EcoSystemic Universe.

While this conversation includes human natured communicators,
we suboptimize our ecological balance
if endo-human discourse monopolizes our lifetime learning dialogue.

A life devoid of communicating with Earth’s diverse languages and dialects,
neuro-rhythms and...

Animistic descent from sanity
Boorish attitude, sense of lost control
Crawl out of your skin, bloody vanity
Darkness claws like a black hole
Eternal uncertainty wreaks mayhem
Freedom not given, glued to midnight
Glutton of attention, cannot condemn
Hungry for life, all bark and no bite
Insanity placed on my sweating forehead
Justification, she’s...

Switzerland,
part of my own historic root system,
has a Bill of Rights for vegetation,
protecting rights of intrinsic dignity
with concomitant human respect for their healthy and aesthetic purposes.
It is not OK to merely throw away 
without regard for future seedling’s rights of vital procreation
for holistically co-invested species.

The cloud  is set to cry
Thunder rumble 
A sunday in RCCG
Drummer boy in spiritual malapropism
Members of choir malaguena(- ing)
Blue, purple and scarlet yarn floating in the temple
A chest-piece in between my ego
As my thoughts grew larger and thinner
I stood in the company's of fools
Upturning...

Freelance wanderer carefully navigating the vast expanse
Shadow warrior doth stealthily advance without 
remonstrance
With bartered lance, pawned knife; abridged parlance
Shuffling in tantric harmony o'er unforgiving terrain; 
nuanced eccentric
Camel cavalcade, entrancing spectacle across glistening 
sands prancing
Shrouded by the frantic wind; each, cloaked itinerant a 
tenured mantic
Trading the...

Enjoy our parting day
the young girl child,
now full-grown wise Elder,
reminded me,
the brother she had taught to flex male muscle
without overbearing her Sister Gaia powers.

On this classic sun-baptizing fragrant May morning,
reflecting this same gently caressing day I was born
into earlier centuries of flowering cultures,
she prepares to...

ENCHANT ME!
(A Contemporary Animist’s Prayer) 

To the shared breath of life:

Enchant me!
Whisper to me in the cadence and rhymes, 
the deeper susurrations of this tellurian realm
with its numinous places that already call out
my name!
Talk to me about my mother and father and
the wonderful moment that...

When you and your wife visited,
you shared a question asked by a pastor
of a raped
and thereby pregnant
vulnerably young and questioning parishioner.

"If your unborn child survived
his first year
and walked back into your home
do you think you would still want to kill him?"

Probably not,
I'm thinking.
And,
perhaps more pastorally...

Why isn’t religious history taught as part of our still evolving creation story?

How could our great enlightenment drama not continually refine 
empowering language, music, liturgy 
with neuro- and eco-systemic healing functions?
as distinguished from sometimes toxic and dissonant colonizing stories 
of unstraight
unwhite
unmale marginalization
through monotheistically unsustainable 
anthro-privileged...

A KIND RECONSIDERATION 
OF THE ABRAHAMIC FAITHS
IN A DIFFICULT TIME
I
I am interested in Moses,
the baby in the bulrushes
who eventually was able
to speak truth to power and
delivered his people to a
promised land
I am interested in Saul and
David and Solomon and a just
administration of a precarious
culture under...

The family that bathes together
stays together
until every body smells
and mind feels
and bilaterally thinks 
better, healthier
wealthier together.

Is that like
biological nature swims ecologically communing together,
hunting healthy polymorphic synergy?

Perhaps.
If yes, it loses something in abstraction.
If no, you might need to stay in your baptismal bath a bit longer,
and...
