Premium Member Hearing Healthier Scripts

I know,
in both head
and anemic heart,
other climate healers
right here and now,
compassion theaters
across Earth's internationalized space 
and throughout tribal time

Breathe integrity's potential
acting
thinking
feeling out and in there and here
somewhere close
and somewhere far
across Earth's polluted oceans,

Yet my own everyday
immediate family relationships
neither speak nor hear
anything of this cooperative win/win integrity.

What am I?
What are we
listening to instead?

Internal climates of despair
about outside long-weathered detachment,
disintegration,
desecration,
degeneration

Win/Lose competitive commodification of life,
evolution of ego-expansion,
anthro-history hubris of detachment,
now rabidly fragmenting
into organic ecosystemic empires
of self-isolated would-be communicators
for and against our future experiential lose/lose outcomes,
or maybe win/lose, though highly unlikely,
in a ZeroSum,
winner takes all, capitalized Wealth economy,
or maybe win/win personal and public
economic and ecological
political and empowering prospects
of secular/sacred integrity scripts
scriptures

Regenerative transcriptions
still powering with
not not degenerative inscriptions

To Lose exterior nature, is to Lose interior spirit;
To Lose secular faith, is to Lose sacred hope;
To Lose integral health, is to Lose integrity wealth;

To Lose RightWing Win/Lose zealous zero-zone dominance,
is to Lose LeftWing ego-liberated,
not interdependently ecocentric,
climate health EarthTribe prominence.

To Win/Win
breathes in and out transubstantiation,
just this here and now
appositional cooperative,
secular/sacred compassion.

Curious,
such lack of re-attaching courage
to give voice to feeling needy
for shared compassion
with each other,
within our families, extended and nuclear,
within ourselves, eco-big and ego-small,
as with Earth's exterior healthier climate 
prospects for future familial regenerators
of all species,
and parties,
and local communities,
and global universities
of ecological/theological inter-relationships.


Premium Member Witnessing In the Mall

I'm at the mall
waiting for my new lenses
to find their inside home
in my old outside frames,

Hopefully
not like new wine
in old 
opaque skins.

I try to engage
with an anthro-war story,
"The Invisible Woman"

Feeling myself silently camouflaged
in a sedate sitting area
sparsely inhabited only by my eyes 
searching
and ears 
spying

Listening for what invisible witnesses
hear
and empathically feel

"In wartime,
trusting the wrong person
can prove fatal."

How much safer is trust
in peace time?
anthro-dominated
industriously capitalized.

Does living Earth
even feel like peace time?

Or Business As Usual
domestic abuse,
neglect,
silent, but not really nonviolent,
atrophy?

Degenerating entropy?
of a human child's boundless curiosity,
enthusiastic health,
win/win wellbeing
panentheistic luminosity.

"Virginia...
will do everything in her power
to avenge the brave people
she lost."

Is the only important difference
between brave patriotic people
and innocent victims of autocracy
a sacred v democratic division?
between anxious war
sacredly declared
and every shopping day
peace deal making
between secularized
competing consumer commodifying diplomats

Perpetually undeclaring
rights of conscientious
personal bodies
to remain innocent
of ballistic 
nihilistic 
trauma producing
and stress consuming intent.

Is hero-worship the only moral distinction
between society's righteous reactionary revenge
and personal power's need,
want,
self-righteous entitled greed
to avenge?

"Virginia knows,
now more than ever,
that failure is not an option."

A lot of pressure
stress
fear
anger
internal oppression
when mortality
and disempowering defeat
and disabling wounds
physical and mental,
natural and spiritual,
are not an option

When power is a weapon
wielded over OtherTribes
and cannot be a tool
kindly and carefully offered
without Othering.

Like seeing
with win/win restorative lenses
in old win/lose traumatized
Business As Usual
anthrosupremacist frames

For spying how exhausted I am
by silently witnessing 
uncivil
anthro-war stories.

Premium Member Competing Cooperative Archetypes

Everyday games we play
grow productive successes
and over consuming failures.

Every day and night
we try to reduce
RightWing dominant overproduction
LeftSoul underconsumption,
Gap growing devolution
of bilateral failing anti-invitation.

Every mutual distrusting day
quick fix addiction
fuels competitive co-dependency.

Every cooperative night
constrains rabid Lose to Lose competitions
spiraling monstrously inhumane growth
of toxic tumors,
rumors of mutually whispered mendacity.

Every day
amplifies chronic stress
in between successful productions
and all-consuming capitalized failure
to play this insane Win to Lose competition game.

Every day and night
life and death of ego-consciousness
wants to play Win to Win together cooperation,
but Left and Right,
like Ego and EcoEnvironment,
see SacredOther healthy wealth communion
immune from suboptimizing Win to eventually Lose.

Every night
descriptive and prescriptive WinWin performance
gradually fails to focus light,
like Full Moon dwindling down
to New Moon's absent bright.

Every day
we each try to react successfully
to satisfy responsibilities
to achieve one hundred percent
of each competitive opportunity
and thereby consume our capitalized lives
while producing no ultimate
single-minded healthy wealth
of multiculturing outcomes.

Every day and night
the harder he pushes production
the harder nature
pushes back to consume her soul.

Every day
every person
every government
every monoculture
consumes every healthy resource
belonging to Win to Win cooperativity
to every time
and every living ecotherapeutic Soul.

Every growing day
and underinvested night
we push to produce healthy success 
more than loss of growth
under-skirting cooperative Win to Win
all-consuming democratic passion
to health-wealth systemic green
gaming LeftNature as RightSpirit growth.

Every day
high incarceration rates inevitably rise
while Win/Lose crime levels recede
Only if you have gospel faith
that punishing imprisonment
is not itself a soulless crime
unconsoling Win/Win's soulful nature.

Premium Member Cleaning House

If cleanliness
thrives next to godliness,
could wealthy White Houses,
slick and in their capital-sucking groove,
survive when paired with homelessness?

This question presupposes
perhaps a radical view
that divine powers are more homeless
than secured behind military-industrialized,
greed capitalized,
plutocratic White Houses.

Is your god's aspirations
toward Earth's homeless sustainable revolution,
where outside is benign inside
and inside out vice-versa?
Or leaning more toward supplanting human nature's industrial needs
with politically self-empowering greeds--
gates closed against the rabble?

I suppose your god
could remain both egocentric
and become more ecocentric,
just as the White House
could remain a temporary shelter
for those empowered by co-empathic wisdom
of our humane species' ultimate homelessness
without a healthy Earth.

But, in White Houses of this sort,
the gates, if needed,
open from both sides.
The perimeter fence grows lower slower
which is not higher faster self-absorption.
The lawns North and South and East and West
extend toward all our homeless cousins,
Elders not yet burned and buried from healthy memory,
and those yet to become born from matriarchal wombs
into a more sustainable revolution
of shared homelessness.

Where Earth is home
sufficient for all,
or we all continue toward climates of homelessness
in gated Only White Houses Matter
of nationalistic greed
far surpassing Earth's need
for vulnerability and integrity
of  a multiculturally homeless
co-messianic
co-redemptive
recreative bodhisattva warrior;
a reweaving god
of and for omnipotently co-operative love.

Premium Member Silent Spaces Sacred

I'm noticing
you're not noticing
I'm starting to look for
what you've already heard
with anticipation
overpowering my internal anxious voice
with calm
and kind compassion

When Other disharmonious human voices
speak of win/win choices

Or sing
a right-handed dance
within my balanced EarthTribal range
of listening
for sacred silent choice.

I become
my still-maturing surprise,
replacing my "Other" anxiety,
awkwardness
disappointment

About unfocused AnthroVoice insecurities
in suffering Other's compassion,
insufferable curiosity,
predative empathic touching,
yet igniting mellow multicultural waves
of resonant pastel sound,
resilient brilliant sight

And these in-between times
silent solitude sacred rests
between transparent syncopations
of impatient human sounds,
inhumane frowns

Not interacting with same room
or screen-time voices,
thoughts
verb-tainted feelings,

These soulful un-nouned bests
have, until recently,
invited anxious boredom,
apathy,
depression,
aching loneliness,
emotional apartheid,

While now
in this human sound silence
of co-redemption
I absently reach out
for deeply exploring
sounds of Simon's silence.

Negative and positive felt voices
provoking newly found choices
liberty of equanimity,
good humored curiosity about anxiety
stress
trauma triggers

Cooperatively reaching
for anticipating
future eco/ego therapy
indigenous healing
wisdom securing
conserving liberating 
internal/external co-passions,

Smiles
and frowns,
ups
and downs,'
transcendent lights
and immanent powers,
remembered lives
projected loves
for capitalized risks
minimized by win/win nutritional opportunities
for nurturing silent
calm and kind
time outside/inside co-invested bliss.


Premium Member Transgendered Upgrade

Imagine the protagonist
in your messianic adult
ego-story of therapeutic development
is a Father,
And your antagonist
is FeMale Othered,
more second class
poor in Enlightened Spirit
for commercial grade empowerment

Left behind by win/lose competitive
thus self-defensive
power hoarding monotheism
with AnthroPrivileged face
and exclusive sacred grace.

Now,
reverse imagine
to remember your protagonist
warm, wet-wombed empowering 
by nurturing Mother,
And your antagonist,
a self-defensive Othering
Father Narcissist.

Notice how our internal Protagonist expectations
images
memories
hopes and fears
ambitions and careers
significantly change
between expected Male v Female overpowers
mono-egotistic
to dominate personal
and political
and economic
and LeftBrain dominant
educated capitalist enlightenment.

Now,
also notice,
if we dare,
our internal Antagonist concerns
and Othering win/lose issues,
including self-protective sensory tissues,
balancing in-between
respected Female/Male cooperative
win/win transcendent cooperative powers

TranSubstantiating indigenous wisdom
of co-invested supreme secularized Yang
and sacred serene Yintegral 
co-empowering Protagonists

Expounding
and mentoring
ecofeminist green therapy
far beyond mere StraightWhite NonPolitically InCorrect
nor sacred PanEntheistically True
Trusted

CoEmpathic Red and Blue
Cooperative Green-Capitalized Transcendentalists
mindful  

That all EarthTribe organic residents
came from some sacred place
Matriarchal.

Premium Member The Guys

The Guys
(For J & J)
By Franklin Price
10/26/2015

I'm here to tell the story
About a couple guys
May mislead you just a little
But won't tell you any lies

They really loved each other
To be together for a life
Thought that they would tie the knot
Become a husband and a wife

Wondered who would wear the pants
Who would clean the house and cook
They both had jobs they wanted
Would do anything it took

Should they keep their love a secret
From the bosses at their work
Some frown on guys who marry
One of them might be that jerk

They took the leap and did it
Damn what other people think
Said their vows an I do's too
Popped the cork and took the drink

After many years together
Still look into each other's eyes
She took his name so long ago
Since then they've been the Guys

I'm not sorry I misled you 
By now you've realized
That for this story the G in guys
Should  be always capitalized

A Simple Girl

To little Samara


Once,  I found a bible lying on the street 
 I found it in the parking lot of the grocery store
 I took the book to the library
 I did not know what to do momentarily.
 As I am recollecting this memory now,
 I do not know why I recalled her face again.
 
 She posted her status on Facebook
 A Smiling picture with her colleague
 I can still recall her post 
 It started with a typo 
 “0n an official trip……”
 And, I was noticing that it began with a zero,
 A zero instead of an O letter, capitalized.
 
 She was a kind soul, gentle and straightforward
 Something was very natural about her
 I envied her simplicity in a real sense
 I liked her smile, such a genuine smile!
 Smiling is hard for me, especially nowadays.
 When thinking inline is tight with the apparent face.
 
 Within two hours, the plane crashed, 
 Made big news on the internet
 She left a little girl, 
 I was thinking about her smiling face
 I was thinking about the little girl.
 
 Her last photo,  taken on an airport lounge
 Had her naturally glowing,  smiling face.
 It had a simple girl starting her journey with a big, big zero.

Premium Member Happy Birthday, Andrea

How Poetry Began, such plots you tell!
A Tale Of Fire And Ice you wrote so well
Poor Peter Pumpkin bid a sad adieu
Pink Cherry Blossoms was your first haiku
You Echo, Silent Still - love's dream come true.

Bright Eyes plays violin with sweet refrain
It Matters Not, a lovely swap quatrain
Rock Turtles - monoku criteria
The Wintered Soul Among Wisteria
Hidden Beauty - bittersweet rondeau
Dear Juliet waits for her Romeo
And Then Are Times in 'Six Days of Sistine'
Yesterday's Joys, a quatern most pristine.

At Winter's End, a triolet of spring
Night, A Pantoum Lullaby to sing
Destiny, so dark; more painfully:
Reflecting on Police Brutality
Each Little Drop of Rain I See goes 'plink'
An Empty Tissue Box in tear-stained ink.

Dogs and Cats, of these you often write
In Strangler's Wood, those shadows quake at night
Eternal Breath, for one who died too soon
This Night you're floating under stars and moon
Revelation In the Rain, poor her!
I'm Huck - that's right, the novel character
Cinder Girl, burned badly by a boy
Happy birthday, Andrea - enjoy!

September 5th:
Happy birthday to a Soup superstar, prolific poetess, constant commenter, splendid sonneteer, marvelous mentor, word warrior, supportive sponsor, and fabulous friend!
