Best Divestment Poems


Premium Member Therapeutic Democracy

Democracy is what we do
and breathe together
to empower ourselves.

Some would say the same of prayer
and holy communion
and secular communication
and healthy relationships.

Democracy seems like an empowering experience
of equality and interdependence
before it became an anti-royalist political philosophy.

Which may serve as a humbling reminder
that great abstract theories
so left-brain universally fascinating
derive from whole mindbody experience
of individual egos,
healthy or other-unwise.

If no ego-experience,
then no ecosystemic consciousness
of democracy
or autocracy
or kleptocracy
or plutocracy
or oligarchy
or capitalocracy
or theocracy
or patriarchy
or even warm accompanying matriarchy.

Multiculturing democracy,
a hybrid of egalitarian aspirations
and interdependent respirations,
requires organized
stable
win/win ego/theo-logical communication,
health wealthy ecological relationships.

Disorganized communication
is an oxymoron,
like enriching divestment
and disturbing attachment
and democratic capitalism
and resilient win/lose compassion.

Democracy is what we win/win breathe
do
develop together
to empower egohealth identities
and wealthy ecosystems.

Remember the Number: 350

Technicolor lights metallic noises split my neurons

Naked rocks replacing people's grass lawns

Thin glacier crumbling under polar bear's weight

You hear a voice rising from the carbon emission's cry:

"Put me under 350..."



" do I care?" Asked a human.

Like a cold chainsaw showing no emotions to the falling trees

Like a  slaughter  house thinking farm animals are amino acids anyways.

Carbon footprint is never calculated in all its facets

Let me tell you, man, the message is urgent!



Party all night watching my favorite football team

Ignore Co2 that overtakes the planet life

Why worry about acid clouds tinting the sky

As long as you can turn on your wifi?

Hey, Wake up guys, our earth is at stake!


Don't think that Martian life is in the planning

Still earth is where we dwelling 

Oil and coal, two big monsters still on the loose

Solar, wind, geothermal, nuclear 

the future is ours to choose.



Do you ever know or remember the number 350??  It's  the most important number in the world !!


**  The UPPER SAFETY LIMIT for CO2 is 350 atmospheric parts per million (ppm)

**  Current CO2 level worldwide is close to 400 ppm and still going up!!!

**  I Support univercity decisions of divestment from the fossil fuel companies, and support California water conservation.

Premium Member In This Beginning

Exactly where and when does Ego begin,
my creation story introduction,
preface;
and is there anything in there about a sequel?

Identity of EarthLight co-revolving HeavenlyPower,
autonomic memory unfolding Ego's deep storage capacity,
regeneratively biased in favor of time's continuance,
dipolar dynamics of balance and crown/root harmony,
resilient LeftBrain-function rooted in Elder RighTime's 
seasons of light and dark hemispheric
horizons

Dawning birth through adorescents
climax trending outside light
and inside power systems

To and from autumnal adulthood 
on through death's disbirth
decomposing interior/exterior processing trends,
sacred liturgy of one benighted day's lifetime

Reviewing regenerative exterior experiential enlightenment 
with fertile body empowerment

Sinking deeply into MindBody Great Transition
(0)-soul ZenTime of Yang/Yin co-arising elation,
surfing love of regenerating Ta(0)Time ourself
reincarnations of all matriarchal RNA generations 
before LeftBrain verbal history,
children of MotherEarth's multiculturing Tribes,
sharing caring TransPresent bicameral intelligence,
deep communion restorage

RE: mindbody light investment 
and mind v body disempowering divestment
for/of/with/toward future safe love health 
v. unsafe hate pathology 

TO: YangCrown/YinRoot identify bicameral flowstreams
of neuro-sexsensory win/win incubators,
now evolving toward polypathic co-binary maturation 
of multi-paradigmatic EarthHealth,

ReVisiting dawning SunLight's

nonviolent lust for enlightened

With thanks to the Environmental Defense Fund,
Advice from ecosystemic pantheists

PENGUIN:

Dive into life;
Avoid undiving into dying, stagnating in reverse-time ruminations.

Appreciate regenerative daydreams;
Depreciate decomposing nightmares.

Take long intuitive wilderness walks
away from short deductive domesticated pathways.

Stand together;
Avoid falling apart.

Go extra cooperative miles
rather than staying stuck
in competing monocultural piles
of divestment away from
polycultural health.

Keep your cool;
Sweep your warm incarnation stretch
into excarnational meanings,
hot co-arising vocations.

GLACIER:

Carve your own path
opening to bipartisan polypaths.

Go eco-slow
by stopping ego-too-fast.

Channel your strengths
with ecosystemic decomposition 
of dissonant weaknesses.

Smooth the way for others
by struggling with your own anthro-supremacist addictions.

Keep moving rationally forward
which is not irrationally backward.

Avoid meltdowns,
Embrace freeze up frames 
of dipolar co-arising balance.

Be cool, trusting,
by becoming empathically warmer.

SEA TURTLE:

Swim with the current;
Fly with bilateral enlightenment.

Be a good navigator;
Become a self-as-other optimizing listener, 
follower of Earth's nutrition.

Stay calm under pressure,
Grow resonance with wu wei midway
slower resilient revolutions.

Be well traveled, outbound,
to become less homebound,
paranoic inbred.

Think long term;
Feel short-term compassion.

Age gracefully;
re-ligiously childlike.

Spend time at the beach,
invest space in one surfing ocean 
of nurturing dreams.

POLAR BEAR:

Live large;
anthro-die down toward (0) Earthcentric.

Be thick-skinned;
Become transparently inter-religious.

Sniff out opportunities;
taste internal crisis, risk.

Learn some good icebreakers;
Unlearn some mad meltdowns.

Be fearless;
Become peace co-empathic messiahs.

Keep it cool,
not so much climatic warming
of melting EarthTribe landscapes.

Premium Member New Resolution Discernment

Time for New Campaign Year ReSolutions,
perhaps informed with some new  political economy
discernment questions.

Why is a free market
most accessible to those with the largest investments
in marketing?

Could this be the same question:
Why are our free political elections
most accessible to those who invest most heavily
in self-partisanship?

Why does suppression or oppression or repression,
some kind of taxing expression,
of the free cooperative-barter labor market
feel related to the rapidly increasing disecological cost
to Earth's formerly free commodities,
elements,
communionation,
co-arising intelligence,
ecosystemic integrity,
and possibly some cooperative research 
hunting and gathering nutrients, 
while avoiding toxicity?

Why does it cost so much
to competitively market the economic policies and political procedures
intended to evolve healthy cooperative free markets?

Why does freedom from fearful need for
--debt forgiveness
--redemption
--absolution
--ever more effectively voiced competition 
to avoid untimely divestment
feel so much like freedom to give
mutually cooperative compassion
--for being merely human,
--for not being humane enough for our own SuperMonoTheistic 
Awareness,
--for not being unnaturally spiritual enough
for our EgoCenters to entirely forget
our ubiquitously shared neurosystemic
empowering political 
and enlightened economic 
RNA regenerative roots?

Why do I feel 
and not think
free of participating in competing 
racist
sexist
homophobic 
eco-political networks, 
structures,
systemic trauma

When I buy groceries and clothes,
every time I support an 
--overly anthro-indulgent,
--over-commodified
--overly toxic
--overly carbon-footprinted
--overly LeftBrain dominant
corporation

Including political party corporations
competing for market shares in votes,
and how do I feel free to support overly incorporated candidates
for overly-commodified public offices? 

Why does an independent multiculturist
sound like an oxymoron?
while a cooperative polyculturing network
sounds like deep nurturing
nutritionally healthy 
resonance?

Premium Member ProEarth Capitalists Are Healthier

Cooperation is 
about potential of relationship,
for equitable integration,
maybe even some healthy co-arising assimilation,
correlation
co-relations.

Cooperatism is about investing our healthy time
in ourSelves
and each and every EarthBound Other

Earth’s vast loving health potential,
evolving
revolving
dissolving
involving
divesting
investing
infesting

While Capitalism is also about wealth-investing our money,
commodities of sacred Earth's equivalent value,
net-working anthroprivileged resources 
and ecosystemically synergetic assets,

Earth’s therapeutic regenerating AnthroMind/EarthBody balance,
political and economic cooperative 
perennial revolution of healthy climates, of course,
but recovered
re-involved 
re-connected
re-ligioned through polyculturing/multiculturing 
resilient/resonant true-health EcoLogic

wherein Earth’s longing to repurpose
greets sublime AnthroErotic coital co-redemption.

Capitalism, divested of its Cooperatistic Political and Economic Evolution,
is a sad reminder
of AnthroSupremacist wealth v. poverty 
over-industrially militarized
divestment from permacultural eros roots

Neurosensory win/win reiterative health 
versus 
win/lose 0-sum pathology

Capitalism, divested of Cooperative Models and Theorems of ReGenerative Developmental Creolization,
is a suffering suboptimizing reminder
of Capital's integral potential
when re-invested through natural/spiritual
EarthBody/AnthroMind  
Cooperatism’s co-binary 
vast health wealthy potential

politically resonant within
as economically resilient without.

Wealthy republican capitalism 
healthy best re-invests
in healthy democratic Cooperatism
as light is drawn
toward Earth's revolutionary recircling.

Capital feeds agapic cooperatism
as wealthy AnthroMinds 
erotically co-engage 
healthy political 
sacredly integral
EarthBodies.


Premium Member Quality Persons

"My son is a high quality person..."
     POTUS

A striking presidential sentiment.
Like defending an expensive choice cut
of red meat.

This view of healthy humanity
as a valuable commodity
reminds me
of his plan for health insurance divestment:

A very, very good plan for all Americans
[who are fortunate enough to be high quality persons,
transparently free of unfortunate pre-existing
Grade B
or C
or, god forbid, Grade D
or E
or Total Fail conditions.]

Premium Member 7th Generation Reorientation

What have we learned?

What is our big 20/20 revision takeaway
from this win/lose
zero-sum failure?

To transparently cooperate
for our most inclusive win/win health
and long-term safety,
economic
and political
and social
and physical
and mental health
resilience

From my own observation,
probably colored
multihued and complexly patterned
by Integral Permaculture Design,

And Community Mediation
for restorative peace resolutions
in perennial win/lose retributive conflict situations,
clashes between conservative LeftBrain dominant
and liberal RightBrain interdependent cultures.

1. To optimize resilience
for at least the next seven generations,
the next 140 years,
bringing us to the year 2160

Here, on our cooperatively co-invested home planet,
we could choose to return to indigenous wisdom,
to include health and safety of our trees,
our neighbors,
rivers,
our soil
our water supply,
our green renewable energy resources,
our fresh and clean river valleyed breezes,
our plants,
our domestic animals,
our wild animal cousins
our sacred EarthMothers.

We do better when our healthy safe priorities
remain broadly contextualized,
less LeftBrain defensive boundaried,
broadening our ecosystemic spatial identities
and deepening our speciated individuation
back through monotheistic/panentheistic history
of this now troubling
post-millennial 

StraightWhiteMale privileged
LeftBrain corporately dominant
relentlessly self-promoting
Anthropocene

Predicting unprecedented ecocide,
genocide,
rabid polarization, 
economic divestment,
Earth Matricide
and overwhelming

During which no healthy democracy
could resiliently endure
as long as our infrastructure,
concrete

bricks and mortar,
budgets and financial planning,

Omit choosing cooperative win/win games 
and ecofeminist green co-investment strategies
for health and safety

Premium Member God of Therapeutic Trees

To a tree,
universe is Time's co-arising health investment,
evolution of unfolding branches and their root systems,
merging in one co-arising 
nondualistic yet dipolar appositional functions

Time of Light
and Time of DualDark,
Dark before dawn of regenerate hope,
Dark after absent dusk of despair.

For children of trees,
EartHealth
deep invests in dualdark ecology
merging fertile co-relational dreams
eco-empathic nights
decomposing health from empowering light,
and dark as deep folded 
integral wealth thereof.

Regenerative investment-present/divestment-past

forest of oceanic breathing waves,

Synergetic God 
of Bilateral Time's further co-arising regeneration
and co-gravitating degeneration.

Premium Member White Privilege

Structural racism lives outside
while personal racists die inside
Choking on polluted air
and water
and soil,
nature and spirit of history's orthodox structures
eliting Big WhiteHouse privilege.

Racist systems
produce racist daddies
and their quasi-property girls
to feed and water toxic prejudice
against lesser non-elites
of gender and income,
color and neighborhood school divestment,
public character
and monoculturing dark celebration
of arm sales
and aggressively industrialized hate development
and colonizing disenchantments
where creolizing enchantments threaten to entice
peaceful revolutionary non-elites of unprivilege.

Racism is to patriarchal evolution
as wealth evangelism is to competing violent revolutions.

Racism would abort multicultural integrity
of green health-managed,
absorbing red hate-mongered,
mutually pardoning bodies,
pay-it-forward forgiveness
across extended family corporations,
cooperatively regenerating co-invested parties,
ecotherapeutic minds with ego-strong support systems,
ultra-nonviolent states of improvising syncopathic hope,
good humored faith,
liberating love,
enchanting relationships
inviting positive energy,
phenomena of wealthy climates,
deeply experienced neural networks,
psychic egosystems,
natures
in ego-spirits
in eco-natures...

Integrity
in synergy...

Resonant space
in resilient time...

Polyphonic creation
in polypathic revolving cultures
without big whitehouse over-investments
in raging LeftBrain historical privilege.

When we

Keep winning
with your same old competitive ********,
said the life coach,
To avoid future losses.

What are the key capital investment opportunities,
asked the financial coach,
That keep Business As Competitively Usual
building larger homes,
expanding sacred cathedrals,
triumphing Win-or-Lose public servants
calculating democratic divestment of losers?

Watch out for competing over-investment
in ostensibly cooperative purposes,
trusts,

collective incorporations for good,
warned the occupier coach,
growing life for mutual love empowerment,
bilateral and multilateral winning health,
wealth,
wellness,
happiness,
welfare of all residents

Whether by "birthright"
or whether by birthwrong need
of a more liberally safe and free sacred space
to live cooperative love
without fear of RightWing ballistic incursions,
rape,
plunder,

neglect

Health of truth and beauty winning
robust multicultural love
restoring ecotherapeutic justice.

All residents win through mutually occupying health care
giving

and communicating nutritional wealth 
with more cooperative communion intent
revolting against WinLose
unto LoseLose anti-rapturous devolutionary assumptions,
bad faith,
lack of hope,
where we would instead grow love,
karmic expectation,
positive psychology incarnation,
ecological and theological correlational relationship.

RightWing coaches and technicians:
Please conservatively challenge assumptions
that healthy engines of capital green success
should
would
or even logically could
unilaterally assume continued growth
of future wealthy
life-systemic successes.

Relentless continued growth
within a living,

we usually discover as rabidly cancerous
once we become mature adult mindbody systems
of natural healthy Spirit

Premium Member Spangled Star Banners

Oh say, did you notice
a national predative anthem?
Moving immediately
urgently,
without reflection of starlight 
sent or received,

From waving flags predicting elite weapons
fueled by complexly masculine 
emasculating
militarized corporate industries
of mutual defensive risks
against international cooperative opportunities
to coinvest

In smoke-filled dawns of manifest destiny
toward freedom for all
self-righteous straight white males
especially with a divine right
as Earth's owners of enslaved 
exploited property,
and home to the brave mercenaries
of death 
and dying
and divestment technologies.

This anthem
is based on a patriarchal
powerful
psychological
and spiritual
and natural
and ecological
theological error.

Nowhere in our personal experience
nor our economic or political history
have we fought for freedom.

We do fight against oppression
but we flee,
apart or together, toward freedom.

Emigration is about exodus
toward hope and freedom.

Declaring wars,
expressing
and investing
our collective fears and angers,
These are about lands taken from reserved,
and feminized
and marginalized
and enslaved laborers,
forced immigrants into non-elite oppressions
of nationalism
patriarchalism
elite v non-elite dualism,
divides,
absence of win/win communication,
xenophobia
monoculturing suppressions
repressions

Where polypathic left with right win/win prominence
longs for polycultural confluence
rather than cognitive/affective dissonance,
flag waving
predicting nationalistic predative anthems
sung empty-heartedly and robotically
with elitist left-brain opulence.

If we sing it loud enough
long enough
we must be patriotically true,

But, to whom?
