Long Dehumanizing Poems

Numbers, numerals,
like words,
combinations of letters,
mean something,
sometimes more secular,
sometimes more sacred ecological.

Numerals and letters share sacred iconic human-intelligence root systems
within a bicameral ecology of mind-body nonduality,
both RightBrain matriarchal empowering flow of integrity (Czikszentmihalyi)
and LeftBrain patriarchal Yang...

Hybrids,
like a good creole stew,
are amazingly viral cooperators,
competitively so,
reacclimating tastes toward richer anticipations.

We have all heard of social capital
and natural capital,
of social democrats as antisocial plutocrats
and cooperatively-owned capitalist corporations,
including bipolar republics, perhaps.

These are all forms...

I find it curious that people will debate the nature of God, with one side saying it is irrelevant as He doesn't exist and the other sure they can pin down the nature, the complexity,...

He suffered a plenty, but from deep within, he disconnected the suffering.
Whether on purpose or subconsciously, the disconnection was for his protection. He learned from experience and observation that survival and victimization do not mix....

Strange, yet a reality none the less:
the oppressed destroying themselves 
for the sake of the oppressor.

The battle of creatures of the sea
has now become that of the humanity
of the conquered land.  A bizarre misguided
catharsis...

There was a time when the trees seemed taller,
A time when the grass seemed greener and the colors brighter.

A time when the sky seemed like an everlasting blue,
Where the clouds seemed to take on countless...

Is government control of humans’ birth, aging, and dying
In century 26, as practiced by a new World State;
Different from 20th century’s use of eugenics,
Which used “fitness” to determine people’s reproductive fate?

A high-tech London, where humans’...

I will never forget the day about
a year ago, I returned to a place
that used to be my house and home.

With my bride of 50 years by my side,
I tried to describe to her how...

In a world where beauty's confined,
To a frame, a shape, so pre-defined.
I refuse to bow to discrimination's hand,
Refusing to let it define me.

No more the shackles of slim and packed,
A revolution, where all sizes are...

A person as one is a wonderful thing,
A person as group is dehumanizing.
A man as one has a heart, mind, and soul,
A man as group is but one more dang fool.
A woman as one can...

If men, mainly MILITARY-loving men, loved their wives
We would have less violence in America, and on the planet

The Bible, oddly, does NOT instruct women to LOVE their husbands:
"Men, love your wives as Christ loved the...

They "flock together",
these girls. They
are "birds of the same feather".

They are so intelligent,
they are so articulate 
with their words..

while they speak 
on the radio, the news..
a girl's life 

is unjust. We will,
they think, speak of...

Within the shadow of a broken heart,
Darkness decrees its penumbra of night…
Obscurity ovulates embryonic entrapment,
Where solitudes silence the seismic still…

Masquerading malevolence gives a chill,
Walking alone a fragile forlorn fragment…
Lonely landscapes of dreams despite,
Where sorrows surface...

Please. Would someone correct me
If I am wrong or fail to understand?
Maybe it's just me. Or maybe I'm dreaming.

But I am at a loss and find it rather
Nonredemptive when in America, we are
Continually speaking in...

I feel the choke under the yoke
Of men so dehumanizing
I feel the heel of their rugged boots...
Choking the breath off me
I feel the touch of their tough dark hearts
Smearing at my restless me straining under...

Hate

Why must you carry the blackness of hate
Why do you find it so easy to belittle and berate
Anger is such a negative way to communicate 
And all it does is create an avenue to separate...

Her tears drag down like hailstorms - 
  leaving welts across her face. 

Her shrieks & cries for help -
  have driven everyone away. 

Perhaps it's been her silence, though -

P-arading at ceremonies, protecting and preventing conflicts and violence
O-fficiating official outings and offering guides and shields
L-anguishing your own at any point of call
I-nvestigating initials of the inevitable crimes and dooms
C-onfident to move to meet flaming...
