Best Monocultures Poems
Written On Our HeartsSome issues,
some opportunities,
are written across great Western and Eastern cultures,
Northern and Southern economies,
Left and Right hemisphere structured minds,
breathing out- and in-forming lungs,
beating in- and then out-flowing hearts.
Flight toward freedom
and open-air healthy impressions,
and fight against racial oppression,
health depression,
patriarchal suppression,
competing capitalist corporate repression
Frighten by blaming
and anger by...

Keeping America SafeA prayer for God to bless Americans,
whether northern or southern,
is also a reminder of traditional political mindfulness,
basic awareness of our economic investments
in global health and security.
No one "keeps" these northern confederations
of uniting states and provinces
safe from ecocide.
MAGA prayers for growing greatness
assume they...

Yogurt and HoneyYogurt.
"I begin the day buying yogurt in a small favorite grocery store."
Not pizza, nor gatorade.
Bananas
although they are imported from afar and grown in monocultures.
Attract fruit flies in August.
Peaches
locally grown with rainwater. I ate all the farmer's peaches alone
stacking them by the railroad tracks.
Water --
rainwater, tap...

Prodigal Son LessonsI said to my prodigal son
who stole from me,
it is not competitive economic strategies
that dominantly empower life;
Competitive ecologies and economies
are dominantly decomposing monocultures,
just the opposite of regenerative synergetic praxis
and regenerative intent toward polycultures.
Monopolistic internal consumer-culture
develops into decomposing organic systems
dissonant cognitive
and emotive
and neural...

After School Jam SessionHow was school today?
Fine.
Did you learn anything important?
Maybe. I'm not sure yet.
Really? What are you considering?
We talked about Howard Odum's natural trinity
of altruism.
Maybe I skipped that day
way back in premillennial times
before Permaculture Design had taken over deep learning development.
Who is Howard Odum
and how does his...

Education As If All Deaths MatterPolitical Science of EarthTribe Education
Really? That’s my topic?
Didn’t Paulo Freire already do this one?
Oh, I see..neurosystemic therapy learning
and restorative justice mentoring,
including healthy pedagogical development
of ecologically cooperative systems
doing the best we can
to avoid retributive traumas
of 0-sum

Polypathic Political ScientistsI have had a highly redundant,
one might even choose polypathic,
graduate studies experience
spanning my adult life to date.
This began with a semester of Philosophy.
Just enough to learn I wanted something more experiential,
a more embodied communication environment of Applied Metaphysics, perhaps even polymathically experiential.
So then I began,...

Beloved Green CommonsWhat purpose do I choose to live;
remaining aloof from evil practice and intent?
What meaning can we find to live,
reversing "evil"
that could transcend our individual absence of identity?
Original Intent uncovers love-life's revolutionary invitation
into mutual belonging.
What is this integrating love,
synergy, active peace restoring justice
of mindful...

When We Were EightWhen you were eight years old
waking to another perfect day's dawn
what potential did you discover
with your co-empathy integrity
of left-deductive
with elder right inductive
communionations?
Who were you
as you stepped into morning's warm spring sun?
How were you one of "us"
and how many species were included
before AnthroPrivilege was...

Dark Pearl PersonsDark cultures of irritating dissonant pearls,
pearl persons,
perelman,
decomposing zero-souled wisdom,
nondual dark beauty
wherein peace reigns beyond fear
of transparently codestined lives
with deathly thresholds reflecting new moon delight,
dancing and singing bright bachanal
through fading dramatic
epic operatic
dreams
of future adventurous advents,
co-operative eco-normic identities.
Co-gravity teaches and listens
within our mutual messianic...

Haunted By WonderI have become haunted by therapeutic wonder,
within wonder,
surrounded by Wonder,
made of Wonder
these past few days
and traumatically troubling nights.
I have also become terrorized by vindication,
vindictive Win/Lose threatening relationships
learned from retributive justice philosophers
who are also parents
and teachers,
so also soldiers
and autonomous entrepreneurs
and Win/Lose economic and competing political leaders
vindicating...

God Trauma v Tree TherapyWhy do you do as you do
and not do as you don't say?
asked the journalist of the leader,
asked the child of her parent.
Because I like to help
and I do not enjoy recognizing myself
as a selfish hypocrite,
responds the leader
to writers of famous and infamous history,

Inconvenient WisdomInstant individual redemption
from predative enculturation
is overly spiritualized,
under naturalized,
rightwing evangelical dogma
more likely found in empire-building
strong business-loyalty development texts
than multi-enculturing
re-connecting
re-ligioning nature/spirit scriptures.
If spiritual
and capital redemption from baseline natural evils
is good news for individuals,
yet inapplicable to global EarthTherapeutic potential,
then what inconvenient truth remains
bad news for retributive

Well fed and watered

Is to explore together
how and when to work around
and with patriarchal clergy leadership.
