Premium Member Advent of Healthier Economics
It's not so much
our cultural value conditioning
that presents a transitional communication problem
about changes of climate
within our Interior
and without
our Exterior
Landscapes.

It's more about discontinuous,
internally incommensurable,
cultural values
norms enjoined throughout Earth's fully domesticated human race
toward humane evolution's progress,
whether this...

Premium Member On Theistic Integrity
Let us begin
by explicitly undressing
what may have been
implicitly held
multicultural feelings:

1. For the overwhelming masses
of teeming and scheming 
healthy human adults,
and especially adolescents,
peak sexual experiences
are also our peak
lifetime
spiritual experiences
of compassion
co-passion
shared orgasmic passion.

2.  Our elder right...

Premium Member Bothyang and Alsoyin
It's hard to think in Either-Or Deductive,
while speaking and acting in Both-And Inductive.

For example,
If my Brother is kind and loving
(and he usually is),
and really not all that judgmental and condemning
with his wife and kids especially...

The inky black water sucks her in further
As she descends into the black depths of the abyss
Cloying dark swirls cover her head as soundlessly it reaches
Possessing her every inhalation – exhalation - it envelopes her...

Premium Member Tricks With Treats
Economic Tricks as Political Treats
from the Peace Council of MotherTrees

Herein lie my tricks with treats,
said she.

I imagine with my family,
and my on-line cooperative Allies,
and then my most wildly cooperative neighbors,
how we can best eco-trick
and poli-treat...

Premium Member Paint Me An Ugly Duck
Awakened and degenerated, I feel I am clashing somewhere 
The clouds appear and then depart, just another face amongst billions  
Millions of colors of the rainbow at one point I thought I was rare...

Premium Member Becoming Polypathic
To become polypathic should feel regenerative, good, positive,
maybe even beautiful, graced,
like we are inviting only the positive karmic stuff of Earth
and humanity.

Pathology, on the other hand, is degenerative,
negative antipathy,
it is reductive.

While health, fed by consistently...

Looking Back
Searching for mistakes in rich history, I came across the joy I used to feel and the looks that we both used to steal.

He's tall, charming, quite an elegant air
An athlete lissom, a kite in the sky
What happened you asked, what so deformed...

Premium Member Within Earth's Time
Within timeless scales of Earth,
a humane life is no more
yet no less
than one short ZeroSum Zone,
sometimes cooperative with Earth's climate changes
and sometimes competitive
against Earth's pace
of healthy climate therapeutic race.

Each of us is a sojourner
on this...

The Trials of Meretrix Canto Iii
Diminishing virtues stripped away
From the flesh
By the fierce brined rods that freely 
Course thy hot crimson blood; 
Dry cracked lips attempting to
Fashion broken words of compliance
That so must needs to be spoken...
But...Ohhh, Meretrix...
My foolish and...

"Breaking the Lonely Rewind"
 


Hysteria ensues a small death
on a funeral pyre pushed
into a sealed and soiled
heart shaped box sunk
to swallow stone tears 
reversing reflections 
in the coldest mirrors
Tsunami waves flood
all that was green

On the...

Ablaze - Part One
Once there was an elder who possessed a fortune vast.
He was the proprietor of lands he had amassed,
dwellings and retainers and a mansion huge and wide
but with just a single doorway to depart outside.

Though this...

It was a late evening when I met you
I walked into the room and I saw you
Engrossed in what you were doing, without a care
I knew then that you were a being rare

What would you feel if I tell you I have depression?

Will you be like every other person?

The splendor of books touched him early in his life, 
absorbed in the stilled animation embossed in them, 
the nascent imagination of the three-year old
morphed within him as an exploring book worm. 

He grew up...

Dormant Mind Sprouts Life

No incubating current cuts through the dense soil

Blipping sparks can't light my sensory console
A dormant seed sprouts on...

Five: the Great Destroyer

set on soul survival
first I run and dodge them
then I fight the losing fight
until I am surrounded by
a never ending night

He would never forget the raindrops knocking on his coffin,
painfully screaming in a postpartum (from life) depression, 
nor would he forget the stiffness of his entire body
