Polypathic Political Scientists
I have had a highly redundant,
one might even choose polypathic,
graduate studies experience
spanning my adult life to date.
This began with a semester of Philosophy.
Just enough to learn I wanted something more experiential,
a more embodied communication environment...

Oak
"Oak"
The guardians
stood around and
shook their heads
great thoughts
quivering
from the ground, roots up,
as if to walk
confidently
with great armies
yet hesitation
was witnessed
in their waving gestures
perplexed
and touching
green crowns,
there they...

Grand Mother Eartha's Dream
My husband and I always enjoy visiting
GrandMother Eartha
on Mother's Day
She often shares
last night's dreams,
which too often follow rather disturbing peak experience themes
Because,
you know,
or maybe not because,
how would I know?
Dreams about Her Straight White AlphaMale trauma

What fills your goals, son?

Starting With Beginnings

Let's start at the beginning
of your ecotherapeutic day.
I'm talking today with Fr. Time,
Earth's only fully self-ordained ecotherapist,
and recently published author of
"Journals of MotherEarth."

Pequot River Land Trust
Once,
or twice,
maybe thrice,
surely not
not fractal
A clan of crazy ecofeminists
conspired within an 88 unit residential castle
in their historically converted
sometimes hysterically clueless condo
colonial-red predative brick
badly bald aging building
With a sometimes soggy south walled school,

Healing Systemic Trauma
Can you make any sense of
systemic racism?
No more common sensory sense than
too much patriarchalism--
all leftbrain-rightwing dominance
oppressing sacred Earth's
polyamorous win/win systems
promoting resiliently wealthy
resonant polyculturing health
Care given
as kind received
in fruitful wombs,
like apple cores in transition
from refuse
toward rebirth
Maybe...

Mom's UnderGround PeaceTrain
A transitional skill
my Mom taught me,
good to use when I start to feel at-risk,
somehow
anyhow,
whether in my relationship with her,
or with EarthDays more kosmic travels
through naturally wild
and domestic spirits.
Remember to ask permission

UnWatering Trumpian Terror
I'm so confused,
raised to believe cooperative love powers
over competing fears
about scarcity of healthy time,
and other resources
for evacuating anger
about past over- and under-valuing of myself
as a regenerate wealth source

Life Beloving Dualdark Night
Some days and nights
I am terrorized by death,
cold silo ache-echoing fear,
claustrophobic breathless dark
barking inevitable factness and finality
of my decomposing mortality,
of history's posthumous demise,
post-humorous as hell.
What good is death
if it cannot at least invite eternal engagement?
Hopeful...

Why Life
Why does dawn dress robust morning,
while dusk undresses sight?
Each dawn incarnates another Earth Day
a lifetime of Easter mornings
redeeming nocturnal sight's revolution,
another therapeutic day of gift-it-forward light,
some longer,
some shorter
before naked covered night.
Why life?
To uncover...

Political Artistry
Brilliant writers
have recommended to younger students,
to only write if they cannot live without doing so.
Elder successful icons of artistic expression,
dance,
voice,
drama,
sculptors
have similarly advised apprentices,
do not do as I have done
unless you could do naught else.
But what...

Revolutionary AnthroMatriarchy
Those who get,
get more widely.
Those who want,
want more deeply.
Normal slow-grown inter-religiously co-invested evolution
is not survival of the wealthiest and strongest species,

with least panentheistic disruption required

Our Earthcafe Coop
In one sense,
the Cafe CoOp

But,
in quite another
the CoOp goes back to when I was eight,

everyone indulged in Thought Experiments
about what would my optimal Eden Paradise.

Water's Weakness
There is nothing weaker than water
But none is superior to it in overcoming the hard,
For which there is no substitute.

And uniting...

Healthy Conversations
Life as active love
evolves toward more polycultural communication,
across both species and time,
within Earth’s Solar EcoSystemic Universe.
While this conversation includes human natured communicators,
we suboptimize our ecological balance
if endo-human discourse monopolizes our lifetime learning dialogue.
