Dispassions Poems | Examples


List of Member Poems

Premium Member Not Making War

In anti-social economics
for escalating violence
and waging war,
what matters most
is who
and/or what 
you actively distrust
divest enough to sustain revenge
and imprisoning
dissonant
dissociative dispassion.

In politics,
as diplomacy 
and peace-building
and making love,
what matters most
is who 
and/or what
you invest in trust
enough to create
and recreate compassion.

In healthy
and safe ecopolitics,
what matters most
is who
and/or what
you co-invest with trust
and do not secretly distrust
enough to recreate 
therapeutic compassion
letting go of hate
before it's too late
for traumatic unknowns
to become outgrown
historic dispassions
disappointments
disarray,
health and safety
distancing dismay

Freely set aside
when it is,
as now,
past time
and sacred space
to come out
for more
and evermore
compassion's healthiest play.

Premium Member Wealth

We are co-empathically wealthy,
at least potentially,
because our universal
polypathic polycultural
polyphonic engaging communions 
polyvagally biosystemic
co-arise individually polynomial values

Healthy
when egocenters become re-sourced
re-centered
re-created
resonant with sacred transparent meaning
rediscovered
in secular vocational purpose
co-passionately healing

Co-intelligently restoring
bicamerally re-storying
dialogue bilaterally communicating
binomial heart-felt compassions
more than swollen anthro-elitist
dispassions

Of Truth exhaled
often engaged in deep listening
for integrity's potential Beauty,

Synergy's promised Trust,

Harmony's impassioned echoing
timeless Thrust.

Premium Member Beauty Speaks Out

While Truth listens in
passionate loving wonder 
on the climax edge of raw sufficiency

Growing enough passion
to accept everyone
and every relationship as we are spatially here
and deep listening now

To perpetuate healthy striving
at the wealthiest edge
of compassion
sufficient for a peaceful EarthLife,
for unconditional regard
of whole 
multiculturing
Beautiful Earth.

But, whether or not edgy
yet deep stretching BeautyTruths
fully extend compassion,
Beauty exists out in Earth-sided nature
as Truth does and does not
in Anthro-Enlightened/Indarkened spirits

Choosing me to feel this attachment
to Here/Now Beauty sufficiency
conjoining relationship with integrity,
solitude with solidarity,

As if I could not be healthier me
in some other place,
some other time

Nor as joyful,
communing with Truth's deep dark and light passions,
dispassions and compassions

For a trinity of honesty
transparency
vulnerability
emerging as a fractal
with restoring eco-just integrity

Relentless courage of curiosity
about both Beauty
and Ugly choices, ecological,
and Truth
and FakeIntegrity voices, theological.


Premium Member Cooperative Learning

I think
and feel
it would be a good
and healthy change
if schools,
at all levels,
and parents
of all nations,
taught our young
more about win/win cooperative
thriving passions for resilience
than win/lose competitive
surviving dispassions from dissonance.

Even better,
and more urgently primal,
seminal,
revolutionary,

We might become a good
and healthy climate wave for change
if students and teachers 
and children and parents
and listeners and preachers,
followers and leaders
listened to our young and old
with more win/win compassionate hugs
than win/lose competing survival detachments,
neglects,
disconnected abuses
learned through lifetimes of wounds
and non-win/win potential integrity
fractures,

Deeply and widely learned
from struggling unfree/unsafe parents
and robotic behavior-commodified,
multiply and then divide,
left-brain dominant teachers
and schools
and monocultures
and nationalistic nonself-governors.

Premium Member Coincidental Faith

There is only co-arising integrity,
integrity unfolds ubiquitously,
omnipresently, health potently
space and time's incarnating potential
inviting
resolving
regenerating multisystemic polyculturing networks
polypathic information webs
embodied network organic
strings of enculturing forming function
waving binomial binary bionic frequencies
toward more interdependent contentment,
less empty-evaporating contentiousness.

Form unfolds content-ment,
well-formed families and communities
avoid dysfunctional toxic content
by grasping its straining stressful mentoring voice
about not only which dispassions to avoid
but also why
and where to reset our pilgrimage rudder's tipping point,
sweet spot Trim Tab,
to comprehend when integrity-aversion overcompensates,
when avoiding karma's grasp
would trend toward our mutually neglectful dis-grace.

Tomorrow,
always tomorrow,
we might avoid competitive gasping
by grasping cooperative aversions to loss and dissonance.
