Best Psychological Science Poems

When Hofmann stumbled across a new synapse,
serotonin underwrote a dopamine contract.
Cuddle or cringe, carnival or calamity,
worlds in one potent punch squared.
Blotter art doesn't pursue gallery status
rather to dissolve into a cerebral canvas,
with a sometimes recess from what is seen.

Lucy shut my eyes with a seven-hour...

Slipping away in time and space 


Stuck inside these four walls, lonely souls tangled and lost, they dance to

Electromagnetic spectrum, forgive us of our transgressive Trojans, 
as we forgive those for sending viruses, malware and spam to us.  
The configuration of inert wisdom begins with a point and click, 
the encrypted biological commands are configured to obey.  

Will the 30th century...

Compassion 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...

Stepped inside Bucky's Universal Credit Union today
to ask what could I invest in
with least risk
and greatest potential for self-optimizing return?

He invited me to sit down
to consider cooperative transactions
as our intentional understory
camouflaged within our ecotherapeutic relationships,
like summer's warm sun emerging from winter's cold clouds,
like noon folding...

"Universe to each must be
All that is, including me.
Environment in turn must be
All that is, excepting me."
       Buckminster Fuller

Evolving Universe to each must become
All integrity that is, including me.
Revolving Environment in turn must be
All that co-arises healthy restorations, 
excepting...

I have an outside RightBrain dominant thalamus
to watch and listen to,
to feel confluent and resonant with,
to love,
as parent with child,
yet this is more of a mutual-mentoring of
notsad-notsad sustainable bliss
within our normally limited nutritional sensory environment.

My speechless,
yet often charming as also charmed, son
probably has no conception...

A Spider’s View

Walking his web
At ceiling corner
Gazing downward
Watching and waiting
Patience absolute.

Growing hungry
Eyes focused
Two victims
Fly and Lady Bug
Trapped in web.

Sense of doom
Survival of fittest
Stronger species
Spider’s appetite
Sustenance waiting.

Scheme of life—
With Darwin smiling
A winner, two losers
Strongest wins
And strongest eats.

A Spider’s View
On a typical day
Each day similar
But different
Result—the same.

Fixed...

What goes up
must come down.
What goes out
must come in.
What goes before
must have also come behind.
What folds
must unfold.
When time is knotted
it must unknot.
When space explains radiantly
convexly
then time implies mutually gravitationally and cooperatively,
and concavely.
What information organizes square rootedly
must decompose fractally and binomially,
in binary octaves of reverse Win-Win...

Trapped in the world
Of cause and effect,
Where people are sold,
And replaced with Hi-Tech.
Where the money does flow 
To where it already is,
In rivers of lies,
In the seas of business.
In the temples of 
The buy and the bought,
Where souls are forgotten
Where fishes are caught.
You pay more...

The permacultural professional's definition of enculturing math:
Counting and discounting,
multiplying and dividing, 
nutritional seed (capital) diverse re-investment guilds
to solve problems of cooperative wealth values 
and dissonant pathological disvalues.

The bicameral geo-mathematician's bilateral dilemma:
To get from 0 to 1, (nomial stasis)
one must also get from 0 to 2,...

Dear Toni,

I saw you on The Daily Show
the other day
having your way
with Trevor,
or was it the other way around?
Not sure.

I'm also not sure where we first went wrong,
but I'm sorry for once having thought you my dumb blonde beauty.
Clearly this is not who you are
as...

Subtraction

If you subtract your bad self, 
In every way, every part as best you can,
Then you’ll find better health,  
And other people won’t suffer a ban. 

You will add something onto, 
Your character if you resolutely control, 
Your ego, there’ll be binary two, 
As...

Keats’ Nightingale

The romantic poets were too early to postulate total atheism,
And so freshened up the church by aligning god with nature,
And I believe they had a preference for nature over god or theism, 
Because they never posit him as social with high, tall stature.

Keats says...

What is love?
A sea of nonexistence
both tranquil and calamitous
where the mind
does not dare enter.
(Rumi, M. Mafi, "Day By Day", p. 120, 2014, Hampton Roads)

What is timeless synergy?
Our sea of coexistence
both confluent and dissonant
where blind consciousness
seldom dares disembody.

Aging time,
This house, not home, hums and strains pitchy...
