Word Problem:  
What is the political
and economic
and moral difference
between a -1 communist concentration camp
and a +1 capitalist detention camp?

Hint: 
Probably the same Christian taxpayer difference
between 
-0 (emptiness):
 
SUBTRACT empowering hope
for a healthy democracy,
Red and Yellow
Black and White
they are precious
in His sight

and
+0 (fullness): 

ADD disempowering despair
of stealthy stupid kleptocracy,
pitching Red against Yellow
Black against White
liberal SkyBlue anthropocentric dreams
against conservational EarthGreen realities

Economically unsafe 
and politically unhealthy 

MotherEarth
laid to waste,
dark stark global disrepair.

Capitalist detention camp distinctions
without communist concentration camp differences

DeGenerative World Problem UnSolution:
a +1 v -1 Total-itarian risk.

ReGenerative Word Problem ReSolution:
a Win/Win +0 and -0 CoBinary 
Making Earth Great Again
healthy democratic CoIntelligent 
ecological-economic opportunity.

67 Shelby

here we careen through the scheme
riding the vortex of the american dream
seen behind the blind scenes in hiding
keep fighting the design on the frontlines.

the career of a degenerative peer
is not measured by how they appear
or adhere the commandeer of said steer,
as long as they down beer and disappear.

clear as this fixates the mistake of the states
we would augmentate and drown hound fears
sheer will could astound the nouns quo
leaving them in tow with woe as one said so.

illuminate the sewn, find a darker home alone,
brash and beating the bone into the stone,
not grown eating scones of the blindly shown
that well-known handmade status throne.

grenade low tossed at the cost of some human loss
for fuel that is obsolete and crude at high-spreading moss
green fabric the waxen-elitism roster head boss
with a thumb gangrene, the color of his blood pulse.

down a flask of mezcal with a spliff of mary jane,
we aim to numb the pain from their dumb games -
switching lanes through the lazy river zaftig maze,
eyes glaze over, middle fingers raise at their gaze

Premium Member Achondroplasia hereditary bone loss

Sitting in the specialty clinic
when this big word is tossed 
in our laps I watched my son 
tumble flip play football soccer 
tumble play baseball yes we all 
knew he was short but now after 
injury this unexpected diagnosis 
I'm completely stunned hopeful 
but how many surgeries bone loss 
bone death I still can't pronounce 
the word Achondroplasia never in 
my vocabulary a form of dwarfism 
normal size person with the hereditary 
gene can have short bones in the foot 
arms or fingers bones that are weak 
soft dying degenerative bone loss when 
I gave birth I counted ten toes ten 
fingers who would dream of testing 
degenerative bone loss passed down 
from the father's gene we pray knowing 
there is no cure so we gather research 
therapeutic braces shoes and surgeries 
god keep my family safe staying in my faith


Premium Member Degenerative

Once while suffering from writer’s curse,
a man’s symptoms grew steadily worse.
He first lost his rhyming,
next, meter and timing,
and succumbed to AI for bad verse.

Premium Member Thank god for Neuroboxing support

Suffering with a traumatic 
brain injury nerve damage 
traumatic headaches neuropathy 
spalastity degenerative brain injury 
it's a blessing to have medical care 
out reach support groups balancing

legacy inspired me to continue 
to fight through unsettling crippling 
pain for my traumatic brain injury 
traumatic headaches awareness 
saves lives i know I would literally die 
without my medication and treatment 

God bless the USA

Premium Member Not Yet Time For Paradise

Mistaking side by side pluralism
for more resonant 
co-infested polyculturalism

Is like mistaking chaotic divisions
for resilient organic complexity,
integral multiplicity

Like only perceiving competitive dissonance 
and degenerative
confusion
while missing inside resonant light
regenerating
cooperative mind/body 
health/wealth consciousness

Free from win/lose
lack-of-capital-driven anxiety,
Free toward win/win
co-invested anticipation

Dipolar co-arising hope
Left/Right
UpMight/DownTight
root-budding Yang/Yintegral
bilateral balance

Resonantly resilient Way
as a round wombed ch'i
polypathic pole

Holonic joy
of sacred unscared
unscorched Earth
Tribes timeless
unboundaried
win/win paradise,
co-invested bipartisan peace 

Warm wombed
multicultural embrace
restoring grace
in some nonviolent inclusive
ecofeminist wombed
fertile green sung
blues danced
LeftHere-RightNow
resonantly resilient
amusing 
sacred communion place

Body space
in timeless peaks
of co-infested Yang/Yin
space/time bilateral balancing Way,
EarthTribe universal/unitarian.


Premium Member Every Relationship Must Change

1. Everything begins and ends,
reports Richo mindfulness
To which Ohcir co-responds,
including positive v negative
therapy v trauma
co-arising intention.

2. Relationships do not always come and go
according to unconditional warm
co-invested appreciation,
when we fail to bicamerally resonate
together brilliantly resilient
therapeutic co-empowerment.

3. Secularized anthrosupremacist life 
is not always fair
healthy
safe,
much less panentheistically 
collaboratively cherished.

4. Pain is part of evil loss
and win/lose trauma,
lose/lose drama
is part of degenerative
dogmatic death,
as e-v-i-l survivalism
reverses l-i-v-e mindful
ReStore EarthJustice
win/win 
yang/yin
body/mind
nature/spirit
ego/eco systemic thrivalism.

5.  People,
and other organic creatures,
are not liberally loving
and conservationally loyal 
and appropriately lusty
all the time,
unlike trauma-free dogs
and healthy MotherTrees
thriving in wealthy 
EarthTribal forests.

Premium Member Lifestar Stories

What is the main difference
between the life time of a star
and your personal trauma history?

Could it be for you,
as for me?

How long we take
to get from regenerative beginnings
in dark caved 
holy 
humble 
BlackHole wombs
to degenerative desecrations

And more therapeutic inside/outside 
resonantly peaceful 
light empowering balanced ends
that snugly fit bigendered means
for cooperative kindness.

What is your main difference
between personal liberation
from inside traumatic deliberation
and outside avoiding condemnation?

At all inhibiting costs to Self
prohibitive costs to Others
disposable property costs to sacred MotherTrees
and other indigenous
sentient
residential non-taxpayers

Not to become confused
with Trumpian
"Vengeance is StraightWhiteMaleCapitalist Mine!!!"
All AnthroSupreme Mine!!!!!!!!!
which is the white privileged noise
of a NON-indigenous
parasitic 
residential non-taxpayer

Who does not know the main difference
between the life time of a star
and His monotheistic personal trauma 
degenerative BlackHole 
reverse of predative 
Great Flash FatherStar history.

Premium Member For Every Season

For every relationship
we can rediscover
a season
of increase
and tipping point
toward decrease.

For every correlation,
positively resonant
and negatively dissonant,
a regenerative
becoming degenerative season
for building up and out
and tearing down and in
compassion
compulsion
recreation
tipping toward
dispassion
revulsion
decay

Like passionate summer powers
Falling toward
diminished winter light
dipolar co-arising
hope for continuous
contiguous fresh spring
cooperating green,
morning blue 
yet warmer
cumulating skies
repredicting summer's
fertile 
climax 
passions

Re-enlisted
in four fractal
reasoned seasons
for redeveloping Earth justice
and restoring Tribal peace

Turning traumatic weaponed 
retributive discommunications
into therapeutic wellness tooled
restorative re-communionations.

Premium Member Seasoned Health Reasons

We could widely perceive reasons
for healthy win/win spiritual relationships
and deeply feel seasons
developing wealthy cooperative sacraments
growing nutritional food
and natural fuel
and nurturing fertility

Becoming therapeutic fruit
of nonviolent communion
when ego traumatized nature
lets co-passionately go

Of ancient AnthroSupremacist
monotheistic Capitalist
win/lose degenerative
zero-sum games

Condemning all sacred life networks
to ecocidal lose/lose death

Of Golden Ruling Gaia,
blue/green revolutionary
birthing deep round wombed empowerment
fertilized by richly robust
solar-seasoned
polyculturally polypathic
panentheistic health wealth experience

Deep inside peaking
and wide outside valleyed
ego/ecofeminist depolarizing
spiritual-reasoned/natural-seasoned 
health-wealthy economic enlightenment,
ecologically nutritional
empowering 
co-invested

So MeWe can widely perceive reasons
for healthy win/win relationships
and deeply feel seasons
of wealthy cooperative sacraments
growing polycultural food
and polypathic fuel
and polyvagal fertility
and polyphonic fantasy.

Fit For Work

Nine years he served his country
Then nursed in Mental Health
None of his professions being
Much good for his wealth.
Physical ill health
Brought work to an end
Very little hope that 
His condition would ever mend.

I watched him cry today 
Face covered in tears,
Drawn expression of anxiety
As he tried to explain his fears.
Fit for work they’d said
In the job centre up town,
Gave him a job advisor
And cut his payments down.

Degenerative spinal disorder 
So at times he can scarcely walk,
You can hear the pain in his voice
Every time  he starts to talk.
Nowadays there’s more often
The  silence of despair,
He’s losing all hope
Starting not to care.

Once again the food parcels
Hoping  for more success
As  we repeat the facts for
Yet another appeals process.
We don’t always  win
But we never stop trying"
Driven on by the sight 
Of a grown man crying.

I watched him cry today, 
Listened while he spoke
Shared  the black humour
Of a typical squaddie joke.
Arranged to see him next week
Putting faith in my hope 
I don’t arrive to find him
Hanging from a rope.

Premium Member Healing Trauma

PROGRESS
To improve win/win therapies
for past win/lose trauma events
and their degenerative systemic lack
of conserving organically healthy,
well-nurtured,
good-humored
and celebrated sacred joyful
integral
sensory-neural root systems.

CONSERVATION
To protect existing animated systems
against critical trauma events,
chronic stress,
and degenerative,
dissociative
Losing Global Wealth Conservation
AND
Losing Liberal Health Progress
root systemic mortality,
genocide,
ecocide

Tragically possible
while denying sacredness
of healthy polycultural
resilient life systems
like Green Gaian Paradise ReMemories
and RedBlooded Peak Ergodic-Erotic CoGravitating Passions,
panentheistically eco-progressive,
monotheistically win/lose wounded
ego-conservative anthrosupremacy.

Social
economic
and political
"EVOLUTION
is driven by progressive ideas
and policed by conservative sensibilities..."

"Progressivism
and Conservatism
each worry about one half of every issue,
and together,
they make sure we're paying enough
attention [etc.]
to everything that [bilaterally] matters."
Tim Urban, The Story of Us, 2020

Premium Member Exquisite Dignity

EarthTribe honored member,
now a sacred journeyed Elder,
remembers us polyculturally richest
in our heathiest remember

Not monoculturally white privileged
and not merely elite competitors
against profoundly humbling humanity

Blithely ignorant
when choosing LeftBrain supremacist attitudes,
positive v negative incisive
political humor,
like economic faith
and ecological relationships
and theological power
and biological health
and transforming news,
come in green inclusive thrivalist
and red exclusive survivalist
for any healthy 
resonantly resilient democracy

For Earth's top linguistic
and deep listening bottomless species
dialectic polyphonic consciousness
dialogically polypathic
dipolar co-arising

Co-gravitating toward
multicultural wisdom
indigenous to all loving life

Polyculturally healthy v monoculturally pathological
thriving v barely surviving
cooperative win/win v win/lose overdrive competitions unwinding

EarthTribe health and safety 
of democratic expanding history
drives my positively regenerative
and negatively degenerative,
thoughtfully humane and beautifully divine
bicamerally therapeutic dignity.

Premium Member Diplomatic Mystics, and Wiki Witches

Where Earth's international diplomats
might hope for multiculturally appropriate
justice

Radical theologians aspire
to restore sacred EarthGreen Peace

And EarthBeauty mystics,
whose reclusive nature is not not spiritual 
indigenously serene
and spacious mystics
nondualistic
nonviolent
non-zero-sum ecological economists

Actively hope
the rest of us unenlightened
and disempowered victims
of degenerative stressful traumas
find some cooperatively co-invested
serenity

In our sacred EarthTribal
co-empathic
co-arising justice
co-passioning peace restoring
peak experience 
long-term multi-regenerational memories
of preferably bilateral
synergetic
co-neurosystemic
passionately peaking
co-identity

Right here at home
in family
and local ecopolitical community
Where Earth's multicultural diplomats
might hope for democratic healthy wealth
restoring integrally cooperative justice.

Premium Member Healthy Voices

When I choose individual regenerative health
I may be reasonably influenced
by potential for economic wealth
as compared to trauma
of individuating degenerative depletion,
absence of resilient well-being,
resonant win/win swelling wellness.

Sometimes more easily missed
is my ego's individual personal swelling cancer
premised beyond Earth's cooperatively communing resources

Beyond democratic globally inclusive political wealth
of ecologically polyculturing relationships

More prominently powerful,
enlightening wise
indigenous nature/spirit nondualism
of health empowering 
Ego/EcoSystemic
copassionate communications,

Of sacredly musing amusicalling communities,
green new through ancient blue
universally regenerative synergy systems
optimizing my wealthiest possible
win/win ecopolitical health.
