Grateful that at least

loves as deeply as I --
a pleasure to meet You;
Grateful that at least
one other feels the

a romantic heart
beating loyally, in dear

greet You;
Grateful am I for a
Gaia, that responds cooperatively
to Our shared aspirations and nurturing
desires,
filling our eyes with
ripe warmth of color,
teeming seas, a cradle
of pearl-essence shores~
green mountains
and valley's plush,
fertile for cyclical growing --
we plant and harvest
together;
Thank you for being You
and loving me as a Wife
Husband, Father and Mother
Sister and Loyal Brother
-- my cats:)) --
Thank You for All,
bankrupt, if not for Your
continued Grace
and Blessings --
Thank You~ God.
This LeftMind dominant
viral virtue
of practicing RightBody patience
Is a coverup
for feeling deep impatience.
Feeling impatient is not as hopeful
as exploring active curiosity.
Curiosity
about why someone,
including my own anthro-privileged self,
would default to live win/lose
competitively
When our healthiest,
and safest
economically enlightened
and politically empowering experiences
have always grown choices to live
liberally
radically
integrally
EarthTribally
sacredly
neurosystemically
ecologically
more fully win/win,
cooperatively co-invested.
Passionate curiosity might kill the occasional cat;
but probably not more deadly
than dispassionate lack of curiosity.
Besides,
passionate curiosity can also be more fun
than boring impatience
More joyful,
than sad
mad
bad
More curiously glad
even appropriately win/win consenting adult/adult lusty
More sad/glad soulful
preferring mindful disciplines
like healthy therapeutic dances
and well-sung
resiliently brilliant love songs.
For monotheists,
like Christians
and Jews
and Moslems,
robust relationships with other humans
may feel more sacred
than more troubling secular relationships
with defensive business of predative nature
like mosquitoes
out for personal profit
and voracious rabbits
in the lettuce
and rattling snakes
saying Think Again.
Yet, for polytheists
and panentheists
more organically inclusive sacred integrity
may arrive with gifts to see
and hear beyond anthro-privilege
thinking
and feeling
nondifferences
in co-arising natural solidarity
co-investing spiritual synergy
Ego centering thoughts
within eco-network feelings
for EarthTribal organic need
feeding resonant relationship
cooperatively together,
rather than further divesting
competitively apart.
Nonviolent communication skills

for restoring trauma preventing EarthJustice

Too much enlightenment
with not enough empowerment
depresses me to feel isolated
and surrounded by self-impressed fools,

or against me.

These people I safely know
who like to healthy grow
fail to distinguish
between cooperative housing
and cooperative households,
cooperative countries
and communities
Which
as we all seem to know
although textbooks often fail to show
include cooperative gardening
and cooperative farming
and possibly cooperative
organic management
of a polytheistic living planet
without monotheistic competitive
monopolistic cultural intent.
In each interdependent case
we explore something together,
some primal trinitarian relationship
between healthy resilience
and safe transitions
and beautifully balanced
resonant energy

Further witchy wonder which,
like resonantly tasty

Sometimes
when a living outside
and kinda stale inside
property
relationship
or a good faith community,
an originally cooperative
property co-investment,
has been neglected
for too long,
Then those properties
and those relationships,
seem to suffer
from systemic
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder,
Those who live there
and those contracted to serve them
respond defensively,
"Well, if nobody else cares,
why should I?"
A culture of economic
and political
and social
and psychological
and spiritual
and physical health care neglect
occupies this formerly cooperatively co-invested intent,
hoping for, one day,
a fully incarnated community
of unconditional trust
and beautiful regard.
The antidote
to a competitive culture
of devolutionary,
pathological neglect,
is a cooperative polyculture
of revolutionary
healthy co-invested wealth.
Both cultures,
like all cultures,
are virally contagious.
"power without love is
reckless
and abusive,
and love without power is
sentimental
and anemic.
Power at its best is
love implementing the demands
of justice,
and justice at its best is
power
correcting everything that stands
against love."
Win/Lose power
without win/win love is
lose/lose reckless
and abusive,
And win/win love
without win/win power is
sentimental
and anemic.
Power
at our best is
love cooperatively implementing
win/win healing justice,
And EarthJustice
at our healthiest
and best is
power
win/win correcting everything
that stands win/lose against
multiculturing beauty,
transformative love,
vulnerably peaceful
and healthy communion.
It's hard to be Green
in a Red v Blue drama scene
Hard to be heard
and seen
when the Blues
say the Reds
are too mean
and the Reds
find the Blues
too liberally obscene
It's hard to be Green
when political business
is all about capital investment debate
and not dialogue
about how to ecosystemically abate
the invasion of our hate
amid failure of our late
climatically failing
Anthropocene.
It's hard to be Green
and bravely seen
in a Red v Blue debate
about sharing our ballistic toys
with other militarized girls and boys
who believe we are safer to be mean
than to plant a spring fed garden
of polyculturally healthy
cuisine.
It's hard to be cooperatively Green
in a Win or Lose
Red or Blues debate
about who is most worthy
to trust
not to covertly lust
for powers bending the minds
and chilling the hearts
and killing the home
of our late Great Transitioning
unearthly mean
formerly Green
Anthropocene.
It's hard to grow Green
humbly in-between Red and Blue
appositions unclearly not not true,
undogmatically,
unemphatically
transpartisan green
green
green,
unseen.
Are you ready to greet
this new day, Dillen?
To get up off your
couch-chilled feet,
to bring new warm meanings
to life lived without deadly restraint
embraced with sparse complaint
to repurpose all our favored ways
and means for chillin
Are you ready
to give up all ego-fattening strategies
to hardly survive
the WhiteMan's rage
raving consumer competitions
Are you ready
to gratefully engage
all EarthTribes
cooperatively willin
To take
and make
and rake
and shake
and bake
this day's new choice cake
not fake
for thrillin
All who meet you feelin
you, our fully engaged
young Black American son,
the only one
Earth brings forth
for this still perfect multicolored day,
chill Dillen.

Actively hope
the rest of us unenlightened

find some cooperatively co-invested

In our sacred EarthTribal

co-arising justice
co-passioning peace restoring
