Best Optimally Poems
NoiseIn Chibok,
An IED finds it way
Into the mind of a savage sect
And made good use of the emptiness.
In helplessness,
Some school girls are bundled up
From their school compound;
Taken for a noisy ride into Sambisa;
From where they will forget
Their mothers’ voices.
On the tube,
There is...

Ecotherapist ConventionsTruth is a feather
pushed off to the other side.
Truths are a body of feathers
within which our bodies reside.
OK, students of life’s healthiest purposes and meanings,
it’s time to regather, if you would be so kind.
Namaste.

Water's WeaknessThere is nothing weaker than water
But none is superior to it in overcoming the hard,
For which there is no substitute.
(Laotse, "Nothing Weaker Than Water", Lin Yutang, trans.)
That weakness of mind and body overcomes strength
And uniting co-gentleness overcomes uniform rigidity,
No Yang does not know;
No yin can...

Perfect Love, Optimal LifePerfect love is perfection,
it is rare,
if such love exists at all
it must thrive beyond boundaries of my own experience
either receiving,
or giving.
Could this perfection of synergetic harmony and confluence
we have grown to love as love itself
become discovered in and through another
by anyone other than a person,
a...

Psychotripic Theory of EverythingCompassion co-arises nondually
internal-external.
Today I want to talk about possibilities
for integral polycultural dynamics,
which are systemic relationships,
correlations,
between LeftBrain deductive ego-mind,
RightBrain inductive eco-body,
and a boundary between these bicameral landscapes,
which we call unconsciousness.
The feasibility
and health value
of recognizing this phrase, "unconscious mind,"
as an oxymoron
may have optimally Continuous Quality Improvement...

Earth RoundThere once was a man with Trumpian crown
so heavy it caused him to frown
when he gave it away
some folks say to this day
it grew lighter while revolving
more democratically healthy around.
There once were most men with dementia
heavy, like homophobic hornetia,
but when they tried a co-operative...

When We Need CompanionshipInsufficient knowledge for fully comprehensive consciousness
is also
more than sufficient ignorance
of our individual and collective participation
in comprehensive disease, despair, degeneration, decay,
anger and fearful partisanship,
climatic cultural change
in both Interior and Exterior Landscapes.
So which do we continue to commit to?
Insufficiency of deductive, reductive, Win-Lose knowledge?
Or inductive gathering and...

Once Upon Healthy TimeOnce within eternal time
of pre-LeftBrain domination,
I recall breathing in
EarthMother's richly hued nutrition,
and this Other inhaling me,
purging lungs of misperceptions
that I was Her
any more or less than S/he was me.
We owned this communion together,
sacred breath co-arising
back and forth,
in and out.
It could not yet occur to...

SunGod's Original IdeaI'm not much of a writer,
more of an activist,
a doer,

Anyway, my Yang side,
which you AnthroTribes might re-cognize as EcoJustice,
emerges from my PositiveYang/NotNegativeYin
Win/Win Balancing
compassionate/pleasant

Answers Without QuestionsWhy do questions hope to end with answers
while answers seem to never end
without yet more questions?

How are the Case Studies of economic and political history
different than Einstein's Thought Experiments?
Wait a minute...
Yes, well that's not really a difference, I think.

Darwin's Double-Dark DilemmaElder Darwin swims in ethology.
He rolls in his deep grave ecology.
He itches and scratches his dissonance
that survival of most fitted and dense
implies manifest destiny for those YangStrong
while Darwin's Cross and his own eyes
clearly disguised
camouflaged ectosymbiotic thrival
of deepest flexible fit-in-edness.
Fullerian synergy,
both within and between polycultured...

Cooperative Family PoliticsI think he's talking about a cooperative bicameral political system,
with "How to talk to the other side".
And what could that possibly mean, dear Yang?
Well,
I was watching this Ted-talk from Marin,
by Robb Willer, as I anciently recall,
while reading George Lakoff's "Political Mind",
still...
Yes, dear,
