Long Extractive Poems

When oppositional cognitive dissonance 
deflects focus from compassion,
I've learned to go back to when I deflected focus from her.
She sends me passive-aggressive messages,
bread crumbs leading back in time 
to where she began to feel alone,
marginalized,
siloed,
anxious,
neglected.

What I have for you today is not so much about re-treading an outdated fuel-based system--
little bit like reshuffling the chairs to fix the decay 
of a segregating Country Club.

No, this is addressed to economic...

It seemed to me,
when I was eight,
U.S. Christian disciples and teachers
had been given so much grace

And had fundamentally boiled it down
to settling for such small subcontinental WhitePatriarchal colonizing gratitude
for God's universally healthy
multicultural EarthTribes.

It was so...

I was speaking with my good friend
Donald John
the Evangelist for AntiChrist
the other day.

And I had to ask,
Donald John,
Why are you so against health care
for all our not yet slaughtered
and otherwise dead already?

Except perhaps health services...

I have heard almost nothing about New Year Resolutions
this pandemic year;

Although personal sound waves are filled
replete with incomplete invitations
to take better health care
of personal
and social
and economic
and democratic
and public
and green climate nonviolent communication
wealth optimization

As we move...

"I do not see what right any one would have

I have watched my youngest son
while nurses give him baths
using diverse models of health optimization 
ranging from PositivEnergy Promotion,
restorative ego-eco

to lower, not too much NegativEnergy, concerns
for hygienic technology professional management,
anger and fear commercialized insurance...

I mean,
seriously?

Talk about

I get it, 
why the 7th multicultural value,
and most recent
to finally make it in
to sacred UniversalYang/UnitarianYintegral
iconology,
doxology,
eulogy,
ecotherapeutic theology,
green ecofeminist ecology,

for our interdependent sacred web

In a sense
each person capable of understanding these words
and those who speak diverse languages together
are island nations
splitting in two
by love
or fear
or both.

I have been concerned about the U.S. island of fundamentalist Christians,
formerly part of the...

Compassion,
love,
resilient economic exchange systems,
political empowerment,
personal revolutionary conversion,
all diverse names for one feeling of integrity
coming to us through our wise Elders;
So foolish back in their day
they had not thought to divide
sacred health from secular wealth.

Through their,

My fundraising problem with positive psychology,
said the good health doctor,
it is too social science squishy,
not leftbrain dominant enough,

Suspiciously ecofeminist
for natural science pathologists
Straight-White privileged proctologists
urologists
bicamerally challenged cardiologists.

I must concede
not ecopolitically erect enough
correct indeed

Imagine
if you would be so kind,

Brilliant God says:

And so
it was nationalistically done

I'm not sure about this
entertainment

But,
consider the following
a hypothesis,
a Thought Experiment

Part of my own experience

against superficial entertainment

And, by association, self-promoting entertainers

EarthMother senses a difference
between Political Correctness

Political accuracy grows best

A childhood memory warmly reminds

A game of Where's the Thimble,
hidden by a gang of siblings,
or just one strategic sister,
left for me to rightly find
as I wander through our living room,
following bilateral fractal cues,

You're cold,
freezing really.

Anger
is such a useful learning silence tool,
when not too short-term
ballistically reactive,
weaponized.

I have seldom noticed
when my own hot-burning issues
cold turn into
a Self and Other harsh
punishing vengeance weapon.

When left unnoticed,
unmedicated,
unmeditated
by forgiving lack of ego-supremacist
humility

By explicit co-invested intentions

Public, or even familial, contracts
with predative purposes and rights given and received
move toward more transparency

So local folks
can better monitor
what's extracted from our communities
against what's coming back in
by way of re-investment
in future healthy regenerations
of active hope

If you have ever read

either Joanna Macy

as they each have also read

Deep warm-blooded
Dark brown 
Multigrain Manna is from Heaven.

Sometimes,
OK, most times,
I'm not actively building a cooperatively co-invested

or even a local family-safe 
multiculturally resilient community

Because I am too capitalistically infested

My LeftYang eye and ear,

"America's health care system
is neither healthy,
caring,
nor a system."
Walter Cronkite

An organic system,
an interdependent co-governing web
of relationships between communicating subsystems,

To be resilient,
to remain robust,
must be win/win cooperative rooted
and not so much capitalist,
headstrong win/lose dominant intended.

Win/lose plutocratic,
kleptocracy,
and capitalist...

The number and weight of facets
consciousness breaks light into
influences how these parts look,
not together as global Green and Red and Brown EarthTribe,
but separately,
deductively,
without interdependent relationships.
