Best Transubstantiating Poems
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.

You know only one thing and that is:
Dying is not on the agenda.
Let us march now inside St. Mary’s,
March reverently through these green repentant doors,
These holy portals to grace and absolution,
Into a stain-glassed sanctuary of sinners kneeling in disguise,
These sullied souls coming in through...

Whole Earth PatriotismWhat is patriotism?
Pride of and for national, and maybe cultural, superiority.
Maybe superior health caring integrity?
What is nationalism?
Usually positive values about monocultural
monotheistic
monopolistic
monochromatic identity,
but I guess national health charism
could also include negative evaluations,
begging for more international
interdependent freedom
empowered to do wealth good.
What is resiliently good?
Not...

Wisdom's Marching CouncilI know you invited the Brothers to side-line along,
but only if we are here to listen;
Don't speak.
Yet I may have credential for qualifying voice.
For I, like some of you,
know what it means to develop cooperative,
too often dissonantly competing,
multicultural enriching relationships
with our African-American husbands and lovers.
Sons...

From correct diverse limbic resolutions

co-acclimating diverse struggling issues,
nutritionally resilient production
and root to branch to reroute transportation
and lack of wealth concentrating consumption.
Find your root systemic way

Creative Climates For ThinkingfeelingWe are each a new way of bilateral becoming and thinking
about what a mind with body is,
where these are headed,
individually,
and as a part.
Thinking about what embodied consciousness is
and where,
in what stable climates of opportunity,
and which unstable subclimates of risk,
enculturing new ways of bilateral becoming
what our...

Dear Republicans For God and CountryThanks for your letter
asking for a free Taoist consult

on into our inside Holy of Holies,
our Climates of PanEntheistic EarthSoul Health.

December RainShe 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...

This Passionate MomentRed hot and cool Green peace
passions bring us to this sacred

More dialogue regenerative
when cooperative
so more redundantly competitive
when endless debate degenerative
Less producing fruit

secular and sacred
indigenously wise potential.
Thriving individual subsystems
play more compassionately
than dispassionately
work competitively
at surviving

Muddy ShoesI'm planting trees today.
Cherry trees in front,
Peter on the street,
Paul in the middle,
with Mary closest in toward the house,
all on the far side of our gravel drive.
On the same southern side,
along my neighbor's new above the eyebrows 8-foot fence,
backside facing me,
which is fine,
more backdrop character...

PolyMathic RevolutionWorth 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...

Original LanguagesLife explores integrity,
hoping to fulfill
all exploding polypathic
curiosities polyphonic.
How might history rewrite humanity
if those who adventured out
and eagerly invaded
felt more reluctant to dominate?
More sure that their long-term survival
in this, or any, non-native land
required them to first learn those languages at hand,
and adopt them as their...

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...
