Best Recomposing Poems

Gratitude
A co-empathic sense of trust,
awe,
appreciation of echo-resonant
deep-listening resolutions,
trusted truth in beauty life
together,
better than failing apart.

A resilient sense of belonging 
beyond vulnerable longing for gratitude 

autumnal taproot harvesting spring's irrepressible hope,
just as summer's nutritional body maturation
predicts winter's cold isolation
recomposing mindfulness.

Why Thich Nhat Hanh thinks it important...

She muddles an unusually warm December
dark drooling deep afternoon

Drizzly wait,
not long before her hungry needy kids return from school,
recomposing herself against a grey back porch wall

Knees up,
peering out 
listening for wonder 

How her life is the same,
and different,
compared to her backyard river 
flowing surely and...

Could what a political scientist would call
deeply held belief
also be what a psychologist could identify as a
feeling of affinity or aversion,
trust or distrust,
confluent familiarity or cognitive-affective dissonance?

"I deeply believe Testosterone Trump
is the logical conclusion
so richly deserved by the Republican ClosedParty."

Is this position rooted in a...

Worth Two in a Buddha Universal Bush

Our permaculturist agenda,
primal principle of economic/ecological design,
is developing,
spreading,
hunting and stealing into fissures
fractally fracturing Business As Usual.

Nothing any one person or nation could do
or not choose to do
can stop this Polycultural Revolutionary Cooperative.
It is too late to stop,
too early to...

He said he planned to freeze to death.

Did he mean to have his body frozen?
Stored to hatch again later,
leftovers out of time's deep freezer of waiting.

No, not that.
He responds with undeniable dismissal,
this would not be his investment 
in Earth's living future plans.

I hope and grope...

Show me intimately passionate ways
to incarnate politically 
and religiously cooperative co-investment,
health and wealth and wisdom prosperity, 
regenerative integrity.

Show me active hope
for climatic EarthLove passion
uniting polycultural polypathic polymorphic paradigms
of evolving neurodiverse people 
light-loving transparent neurosensory pleasures.

Who am I
in Ego’s deductive dark winter 
of decomposing crown-fallen seeds
and...

If I were not a GAY white male
living in the USA,
I wonder if I would have grown my LeftBrain up
to so easily hear 
Donald John as Head Pharisee
for privileged religiously-held Nationalism--
a totalitarian fake-idol
substituting fake-patriotic raptures
against sacred polyculturing outcomes
for all multiculturing
underprivileged creolizing
natural agnostic and spiritual religious...

Resilience planning
is to Disaster Management
for a crippled community,
As Permacultural  planning
is to Anger Management
for growing Ego Resilience.

When WinLose cards are dealt
by climates of dominating and emerging pathology,
Disaster and Anger Management present necessary
short-term skills,

But, insufficient when cooperative WinWin cards
more normatively resume,
Occupying humble gratitude
for polypathic polycultural outcome...

Nondual Listening
Co-Incident Id-Entity
Co-Arising Empathy
fertile EarthMother revolution

Pupils notice
left-deductive
reductive
conflating

commodifying
dividing
Left from Right dominance.

JustUs Rights
restoring Earth's evolutionary co-arising:
harmonically polyculturing Beloved Communion,
resonantly resilient longing
to belong co-equivalent with Left.

JustUs Permaculturing Mentor
mutually messianic co-redeemer 
spiritual health as natural wealth intent
through resiliently wealthy 
resonantly healthy 
ego/ecotherapeutic praxis:

"Permaculture" as paradigm

In cooperative detective work,
including Earth scientific research,
we are told to follow the money
much more often
than feeling invited 
to follow the nutritional health investors
and the toxic pathological attackers

Whether our trail is a criminal
or political
economic impassioned journey
of discovery.

In healing arts and role play,
we are more often invited
to...

All ye who enter here
despairing statues of salted liberty,
merging solidarity with Earth’s poor hunger
to range free falling Victorian bricks
and mal-bourne sticks
to land here with now
with all arrived before you
prepared to grace Earth’s healthy breathing space
and time of BrickWork connecting sacred place,
restructuring minds co-infesting recomposing bodies,
bay...

My longer life
reads like a ransacked,
formerly almost democratic constitution,
Whether well read in organic silence
or not so screaming fascist tumored
rumor bad-humored
much.

Some days present easy milestone messages
to choose light-flowing life
While other days and nights
I feel forced to fight
to choose each conscious thought
or even just one self-composing word
or...

How can you say
with your not quite straight face
that you neither know nor care
anything of God, or gods, or even exotic goddesses?

That's like saying you don't care for any love today,
or rain during a drought,
but thanks so very much for suggesting your best holistic medicine,
all...

I am reading Wendell Berry stories
again,
still,
today.

And notice
over these past several weeks
he unfolds two bipolar themes.

Berry is,
was,
a cooperative Southern neighborhood farmer
of organic hospitality.
His protagonists grow on multigenerational farms
as Berry grows into writing while farming,
thereby farming readers
co-investing in cooperative 
organic 
ego-feeding
ecosystems.

But Berry's NegativEnergy tension
emerges against nationalistic
anti-productive family
automated...

I wonder if heuristic,
tentative thoughts,
and ambiguous,
nebulous feelings,
coalesce, sometimes
into resonant knowing

In a personal
powerful
illuminating way
resilient hope of sharing
this round living Earth
with robust wildness
leaking out in between
relentlessly speaking words,
autobiographical lessons
never native learned

Thereby opening a passion
for searching communioned sacred doors
toward further nuance,

Recreating what we have lived to know,
to timelessly
yet...
