Repentance Againrepentance again
old women kneel in pews
dotted about the shadowed church
black splotches they float
among the incense clouds.
faces waxen like the flicker candles
raised, softened, in the stained glass light.
hands tightly curled into each other
black rosary beads clutched in woven need
black, black, scary black
repenting for the world of...

So Many Struggles, So Little TimeWhy does "sacrilegious"
mean struggling against sacred health experience
rather than struggling with re-ligioning monotheistic divinity
to notnot dualling polytheistic dividity?
How could prodigal sons and daughters
struggle against their prodigy potential,
yet not struggle with our prodigious potentiality?
When would a wealthy natural spirit
struggle against healthy spirituality
rather than struggle with nondualistic...

Love Lesson PlanningFirst, imagine, if you can,
"Love" is not just a many splendored thing,
although it is that,
but behaviorists and existentialists behavioralize
the complex of emotions and consciousness
wearing that synergetic label
as active, sometimes spontaneous
"cooperation,"
an antonym for "competition."
Now,
Imagine you grew up
in a language
where "sacred"
and "spiritual"
are synonymous with proactive soul "cooperation."
And
"secular"
and...

Contract Against GreatnessIn Ayn Rand's "Atlas Shrugged"
she paints a nationalistically wealthy saint
where also lives a monochromatically utilitarian narcissist,
sucking on attachment to fame and power
for bought and sold ZeroSum accounting Souls.
If the perfectly powerful pure patriarchal patriot
were your own Atlas father,
you might feel certain
he would prefer you grow...

Resurrecting - Sac-Ower-Eous ChildThe realms of resurrection buried,
Excavating bloody beliefs of slavery,
Decimating riots in a blink,
Rejuvenating imagery primed energy.
Shrillness of voice overpowering the silence,
Tears bursting eyes insane,
Holiness captured and tortured,
Bodies are in colossal pain.
Daemons dancing in chaos of secularity,
Dungeons blasted by uncanny clout,
A shrine struggling to...

Writing Healthy CopyMy 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...

Sacred StewardsStewardship
is taking cooperative care of what you don't own,
giving and receiving care
from what you could not rightfully own.
I could not exclusively own a symbiotic relationship,
a robust string of reiterative emerging communication,
a resonant relationship,
harmonic integrity.
I would most resiliently own nothing
without profound solidarity
lived in economic and politically...

Earthtribe GamesystemsAn important difference
between climate health (win/lose toward win/win thrivalist)
and climate pathology (win/lose toward lose/lose non-survivalist)
is a discerning capacity
to invite slow-reweaving
deep sacred learning relationships
Rather than further incite fast-unraveling shallow unrelationship
between ego-nature secularity
and Earth-nature immanently-sacred identity
and Earth-spirit transcendently ZeroSoul non-individuation

The Sacrilege of TerrorThe host-guest relationship is more or less sacred all over the world. (Gregory Bateson, Sacred Unity)
Except among terrorists, where host and guest are reversed in priority
and assumed to become mutually antagonistic
and parasitic,
which defines paranoia
which is blind to sacred unity of co-hosts and co-guests.
Sacred is...

Prose Poetry
Doing ChurchChurch is usually a noun
for a sanctuary becoming place
But, both church and sanctuary
are scripturally more about revolutionary verbs.
Countering capital-consumer culture
Churching
giving and receiving healthy cooperatively-owned sanctuary
are what good news faith communities do
to earn a reputation
for wealth of love,
gratitude for more hope-filled futures
together,
more than autonomously apart.
Synergetically giving...
