In their silence, the mountains stand tall.
Guardians of secrets—protectors of all
Their peaks reach high, touching the sky.
A haven of serenity—where spirits can fly

Before I let this night slip into dawn's lap,
Let me embrace you, my love, with a tender clap.
For the mountains,...

In the half-light of another realm,
A day without you—my heart overwhelmed.
I claim the stillness as my own sun.
Seeking solace until our souls are one

Time slides across the surface of a frozen river.
Echoing memories that bear my heart shiver.
I wander through the...

I alone agnize myself, a soul set free,
In the depths of my being, I truly foresee,
Asking for aid shows self-respect and awareness,
Strength in vulnerability is a testament to fairness.

Changing my opinion is not a sign of defeat 
But a strength, a willingness...

I'm not much of a writer,
more of an activist,
a doer,
timeless doing.

Anyway, my Yang side,
which you AnthroTribes might re-cognize as EcoJustice,
emerges from my PositiveYang/NotNegativeYin 
Win/Win Balancing 
compassionate/pleasant 
dialectically dipolar
co-binary appositional
positive/negative co-relational,
co-arising leftmind/rightbody hemispheres
of enbrightening light
and empowering sight

because both passions for restoring EarthTribe justice 
and felt body...

As I look out at the streets,
I feel the chains around doesn’t set me free
I don’t realize what is it burning inside,
But that’s something like a fire inside me.

I feel my adrenaline pumping, emotions pouring in
Can’t resist the suffocation around, want to flee;
Somewhere far away...

As dawn it roosts, to the early lids of my opened eyes,
Never ever has been a happy feeling pleasant comprise.
Quinquennium back I can clearly remember,
The morning’s plea scalds my thoughts like burning ember.

My blanket festooned body, on the bed it stirs & moves,
The immensity of...

I was interviewing ecotherapeutic health workers
and ran into one from the Conceptualist School
of Positive Psychology.

While this sounded quite abstractly wonderful,
I asked her for the elevator version.

"Ceptual" derives from "septum",
a (0)-centric bilateral neurosystemic boundary platform
for "conceptual" as "co-ceptual"

A double-binary in/ex-formation field
and flow of fractal-structured waves
of regenerative-positive
health-wealth...

I'm sure it was Rob Brezsny, again,
who first pointed out to me
that Western psychoanalysts give priority to pathologies within family relationships,
while Eastern analysts, more embedded in philosophies of interdependence,
begin with what nurturing health dynamics we can find
within those same family relationships,
for it is these,
after all,
that...

Dregs and tumors of decay
co-arise therapies 
for humoring healthy
wealthy life.

Those who stand on tiptoe do not stand firm;
Those who stand with equal weight,
bipedal-planted, do stand resiliently firm.

Those who strain their leftbrain stride 
do not walk well;
Those who stride binomially well-timed,
grasping out only when and where...

Multihued lights flash fervently,
On naked illusion draped eyes zealously,
All shut and secured to colored vision,
Egoist blurry brain images, these are all in an intangible prison.

Some call me quirk, some foible, but all refer me to a societal misfit,
It’s true they seem to tell, but my...

Beyond the time I bethought thy ambiguity
With you I aspire the longanimity
Beyond the prophecy there crests thy conceivability
With you I cognize the viability.
 
Beyond thy persuasion I bechanced your propinquity
With you I behold the emotionality
Beyond the state of elated bliss there prehends thy fidelity
With you...

I see the raging fire in your
eyes,
the heart screams out loud the brain cells terpsichore 
in the rhythm of life.

See the sparkle instead of haze that covers your being. 
see the best in you 
that takes your spirit out.

Never let yourself down
never let anyone in...
