"Women are traps
that lay for men
everywhere"
said Franz Kafka,
"in order to drag them into the infinite."

Maybe.
But why not,
Women are incense
that invites men and other women
and all genders everywhere
into the in-between infinite

EarthMother incense

Premium Member On Being Soulful

On Being Soulful

Spiritual moments
on being soulful
find their certain
metaphysical aspects
when one seeks a
deeper meaning
and a sense
of true joy,
by connecting
with one’s soul
that lies at the
very core of all
human beings
and their
individual existence
on this
physical entity,
we all call
and know, as—
Our Mortal Earth,
Our Mother Earth. 

Thinking about
and truly
understanding the
special elements,
and the wholly
transcendental nature
of one’s self-ego,
whilst mastering
the spiritual art
of self-reflection,
whereby—
one finds
His or Her
true ethereal sense
and begins
to see
Mortal Life
entirely unfettered,
and without any
human falsities
and obvious
facades of deceit—
that speak directly
to the
essence of
balance and harmony,
and the
true cosmic
passion and purpose
of the
spirit of soulfulness.

It’s this
that brings
all of us
in the end
closer to
God’s Kingdom
and to
Almighty God Himself.

Amen.

Premium Member Ego's Monstrous ComPetition

Earth had offered Her eco-centric contract
of love and synergy,
awaiting ego's personal response each day,
each moment,
eager to optimize wealthy health care cooperations 
of sacred grace.

Over an apparently inadequate lifetime
ego implied his competitive response:

I grow increasingly excited,
stimulated,
by this co-petitioning challenge
to frame our dissonance,
our operational riddles and puzzles,
games and illogistics 
and dark strategies

Measured in statistical decomposition
of the odds for sustaining life
by perfecting hatred and fear
of death's dissociative decay.

I question Earth's right to positive resolution 
and harmonic resonance,
as consonant co-governance
of enlightened ego empowering eco 
to play win/win, 
recreate without sin, 
and co-passion nicely together

This co-petition against wasted anxious time
fully exercises my right of conscience,
to re-search 0-sum ego-partisanship 
for absolute freedom from eco-dependence.

This co-petition asserts our human natural guild's unlovely preference
for contention over contentment
for sustained longing rather than resilient belonging
for uni-lateral freedom 
rather than ego/eco bilateral interdependence.

EarthMother absorbed this richly contentious compost,
this dissembling over cooperative rights of assembly
and competition challenging associative eco-creation
as too inclusive recreation,
divisive of ego's omnipotent present place 
in organic space
derived from eco's multisystemic functions 
within history's healthiest seasons.

It seems to me,
said She,
Time has unfolded an eco-systemic co-tractive gift,
born of Her binomial grace
in bilaterally felt space,
a belonging response to mutually co-tribute with ego
gratitude for bicameral mutuality
and full freedom of co-scientific consciousness,
to conjoin time's eternal moment
of past personal ego 
with future eco recentering life.

Post Scripted: "After all this time and space
repeating inhumane competitions and cooperative contractions,
deductive inducements to balance positive political space 
with negative un-ecological economic time,
thank you for remembering why RightBrain felt eco-normics
gave birth to LeftBrain's verbal ego-petitions
in our first through last breathing moment 
of win/win eco-operative identity."

Premium Member Said BlueWater To RedFire

Angry words have fear-mongering consequences,
said rhetorical behaviorist Hillary,
then Kamala, to Donald,
we would no more peacefully 
and compassionately select a Donald Trump as President
than we would bipartisan co-invest to win Donald Duck for Empire Builder.

Words mean things,
said linguistic behaviorist Anat
to her fellow Economist Collective,
and the absence of kind words means something too.
We're not sure what
but I place my bet
on more discommunicating eco-political
ego-apartisanship.

FatherSun enlightenment led toward EarthMother liquidity.
We know this from our indigenous history 
of Yang/Yin Win/Win
environmental science books
but this is difficult to see
how exactly this could be
without sufficient silence to recall
what dipolar co-arising energies lie in wait
within this shared bilateral brilliance.

Fire and water,
progenitors of stardust 
eco-empowering,
sacred ecologizing 
fertile organic planets
birthing health moisturized wealthy regenerations.

To paraphrase bodhisattva Joanna Macy,
Co-invested communing economics 
is not more wishful monopolistic thinking
(or messianic ideation).

Active political gathering verbs
enlightening sacred habitats 
do not wait for renowned 
divisive 
drowned-out 
dis-organic trauma issues
to be reverently resurrected 
and religiously re-membered
by monoculturing Donald Ducks
or by some Anti-Other quacking
self-serving colonization
of patriarchal monotheistic
discommunicating misbehavior.

Active Hope wakes up in love-life's ecological 
EarthMother baptismal beauty
wonder
fertile light and flowing power sabbath
on who's silently communing behalf
we can act in sacred light
for animated 
organic 
polyamorous co-empowerment. 

To the responsible Hillaries, and Kamalas: 
Follow positively cooperative light,
not so much darkly threatening
reactively monolithic 
swampy miscommunication.

To the authoritarian Donalds:
Follow your competitively brilliant 
SunFather responsive truth 
with EarthMother beauty 
loves polyculturing liquidity,
not so much your prized 
monopolistic 
and monotheistic
anthro-patriarchal 
discommunicating fear and anger 
military-industrialized pathologies.

Premium Member Tao of Healthy Wealth

On what metaphysical, natural yet spiritual, principle
might agree
an economic ecologist,
an evangelist,
and a political power analyst?

Earth's prehistoric Creation unfolded
more regeneratively compassioned
than degeneratively dispassioned,
or anthropocentric history tellers
and sacred scripture retellers
and, eventually, writers,
could not have become 
recreatively intelligent 
regenetically empowered 
neurosystemic co-investors

Enlightening SunFather
created LeftHemisphere's
AnthroCentric Logos
derived from spiritually sung 
and naturally danced
empowering EarthMother's
indigenously wise RightHemisphere Mythos

Remixing
reconnecting
re-ligioning pleasure mysteries
regenerating passion history histories.

And if we add the further premise
that on bi-hemispheric Earth,
as in neurosystemic bicameral logic 
and creolizing inter-religious language 
and cobinary polymathic listening,
positive 1-SunGod History
is equivalent to 
double negative 0-EarthMother Mystery,
then Earth's regenerative, resonant, resolving,
re-ligiously liberating
spiritually enlightened mind economic passions
balance conserving 
naturally empowered not not political body pleasures.

Or maybe this has nothing to do with indigenous endorphin wisdom;
its just the more agnostic Nyquil.

Premium Member MAD Crazy Choices

Believing you are for growing economic opportunities 
and shrinking anthropocentric financial risks 
AND 
believing, to do so,
we must tolerate shrinking environmental EarthMother health 
and growing nature's nutritional pathology,
is a confusion of cultural ways 
and climate means. 

There could be no such anthropocentric thing 
as a resilient economic system 
that is ecologically extractive,
degenerative

Just as there could be no such thing as a healthy economic system 
that is not also a politically cooperative, 
more than competitive, 
systemic network of compassionate relationships 
and appreciative transactions.

It could not be news
that we do not get more 
and more
and more valued goodies
out of a relationship
when we invest less
and less
and less
within that relationship.

This is a relationship
that will surely end in divorce
heartbreak
animosity
painful loss
of sacred marriage

Between red-blooded anthropological resilience
and green-beloved ecological resonance.

Premium Member Patriotic Matriotism

Within tender vulnerable hearts
blossom loyal loves without,
so too
within grateful hearts
blossom honorable patriotism without
for a people of democratically cooperative integrity,
and also grace-filling sacred matriotism
for EarthTribes of domestic nutritional integration.

Both politically public sectors
and psychologically mindful 
egoLeft-ecoRight conscious
private sectors,
intimate
vulnerable
and not for sale or rent
sectors of polycultural right
and monoculturing wrong
hubris,
fake patriotism
without loyalty to underlying multiculturing wombs
fostering healthy integrating
nurturing
nutritious matriotism.

LeftBrain competitive patriotism,
nationalistic,
is mere exterior hypocrisy
without also Elder Sacred RightBrain
cooperative matriotic
MotherEarth's centering,
mindful,
egoLeft-ecoRight consciousness.

Vulnerable RightBrain spirits grow global polypathic love
as grateful LeftBrain dominant nations
regenerate Earth-patriotic matriarchal anthems,
love songs,
not just flags waving
but full-color solidarity banners dancing
with threaded bonds,
umbilical chords of harmonic rapture.

Why settle for merely patriotic nationalistic anthems
when we can sing multicultural love songs
of gratitude
for cooperative health-inducing EarthMother?
And Her honorable
grateful Daughters
and nobly patriotic Sons,
from generations past
for sacred regeneration futures
of deep learning
and cooperative bicameral listening.

Why do we RightWing pretend
our problems are lack of patriotism
when we both Left with Right Brains fly
through issues more cooperative
with underlying gratitude for Earth
gracefully paid forward?

Today we honor those who paid our price of violence
to protect us from each Other's mono-colonizing excesses,
we remember deep respect for those who have done their best
when this was too often not sufficient 
to return to a resonantly healthy life together

now fenced

found in Business As Usual
