Seductive Responsibilities
I am exhausted by bad government excuses to avoid responsibility
and I am, today, sick with excuses to avoid my own responsibility,
well within the bounds of my self-governing authority:
"I'm just a mortal human. I make mistakes.
I...

Sublime Terror
Let's say I am an antro-privileged terrorist.
What would we be saying?
And is human nature supremacy
over all other less sacred nature/spirits
as monotheistically redundant
as anthro-industrious militarism?
If you are a HolySpirit panentheist,
is "religious terrorist" as oxymoronic
as using...

Manic Depressive Climates
Depression is like dying
without hope this process will end well,
without remediation
at least not for my closely held ego-identity,
and despair
this turning inward
creates a cocoon by avoiding outward.
Focal awareness of ego mortality,
immanent and emanant,
eminent,
turns inward,
returns...

Wisdom's Healthy Passion
"We have an enemy within called the ego
who prevents us from using our mind intelligently.
It hides deep within our heart
and emerges with regularity
to challenge and consume our will."

Systemic Change
It is known throughout Earth's anonymous
unanimous Commons,
Systems are hard to change.
The more macro-competitive,
Yang-strong,
The more difficult of all conversion stories
Over pernicious decades,
We tend to add "isms"
to pathological ends
of these global systemic issues.
This polyculturalistic/multiculturalism suffix,
negative appendage,
suggests a...

Advent Funeral With Birthday
The coincidence of Advent
and the HW Bush eulogies
reminded me of DJ Trump's challenge
to laugh about himself
at least as quickly and quietly as he laughs against others.
As compared to any recent US President,
he comes in dead...

Speaking of Common Goods
What I wanted to say
the other day
when exalting healthy kindness
for potentially freeing us
from Straight White Men's great meanness
Costing Earth's Green Commons
and charging disinterest against
co-investing in healthy wealth
of all we cooperatively cherish
as good-wellness humored
for me
and win/win...

Where Poets Rule
Everything that is created
disguises a hidden purpose....
A calligrapher writes out his lines
not just for the exquisiteness of the script
but to also convey a meaning.

Competitions In Disregard
Am I unhealthy and unsafe oppressed,
suppressed,
repressed,
right-brain negatively depressed?
Not really all that:
competitively left-brain impressive,
first through last impression
newsworthy,
enticingly marketable,
profitably commercial,
slickly corporate,
predatively intelligent
More camouflaged
unnoticed and undefined
unrefined
and, frankly, perhaps unstable
Because of my environmental circumstances?
as liberal lovers
would have failing...

Heroes and Villains
Everyone's great cause
projects them as our future's therapeutic hero.
So all against our health-intending causes
reject us as potential victimizers,
ostracizers,
impeachers,
disenfranchisers,
excommunicators,
criminalizers.
The trick is to see antagonists,
sources of trauma,
as part of protagonist causes you,
resource for therapy,
actively seeking out each...

Bad Humors Destroy Feelers
Good Humors Create Healers
Electing and selecting humorless weaponed officials
to legislate and administer laws
empowering challenged and challenging
unarmed natures,
is like expecting a rabid rattlesnake
to advocate with and for patience,
understanding through calming and merciful listening
to apply active love's...

Growing Green Cultures
Inside my elegantly intuitive,
but SupremelyWhite Male neglected,
and cooperatively We-managed RightHemisphere,
Grows a nutritious nuancing
and nonviolently
nonverbally communicating
win/win systemically curious
dipolar co-arising
(not so much bipolar distancing
and often furious)
courageous sense of win/win
bicamerally accessible humor
Like when is green

What Was That About
Truthfully,
and kinda depressing,
I can't "manage" anger
any better than fear
and contagious distrust
and nearly constant anxiety
and chronic depression.
In nonviolent communication practice circles,
peace networks,
organic therapeutic systems,
"curiosity" slowly grows ascendent
as "patience" to resist negative feelings
and "impatience" with shameless Others
and...

George Washington An Old Fuddy-Duddy
George Washington an Old Fuddy-Duddy?

Right there George is, on the one-dollar bill
And looking humorless, old and extremely ill

Feeling Rememory
I noticed just yesterday
while glowering about something else
now already
once again
forgotten...
I seem to have lost my good-sensed humor
along my stumbling
isolating internal say
Toward this red STOP! sign
searching for a different way
To find a new Earth center

Damn Anticipatory Anxiety Affliction
Damn anticipatory anxiety affliction...

Goodhumor Issues
I've felt it said
here
time and again
That a personal issue
is also about political tissue
reconnecting economic responsibilities
risks
opportunities fiscal
annual
perennial
Centers of felt pleasure
and good humor
are Passions,
not only small
and great transitional
but resonantly
resiliently multi-anecdotal,
Excluding all DisPassions
DeGenerations
and humorless passions
actively resisting future dispassions,
loss
suffering
mortality

New Leaves (But She Is Sinking)
A girl with hollow eyes

foliage rich with greens and yellows
but she’s in black and white
no Technicoloring here
and the leaves are closing in
spiraling around her face

Embarrassment
Last week, I walked up to a woman,
My arms encircling her un-notified waist,
After stiffly pointing out to some man
His not- funny miscalculations from childish haste…
Only yesterday was trailing after another woman in hilarity
Over her hip-describing...

When Profound Feels Sacred
My youngest
of three AfricanAmerican adopted sons
has profound nonwhite
nonstraight
nonverbal cerebral palsy.
Profound
in at least not being privileged
or victimized
by internal LeftBrain dominance,
violent micro-aggressions,
zero-sum competitive thinking
Either positively True and Good
or negatively False and Bad,
laughable
or humorless
Sacred indigenous consciousness
feels more Right-Elder...

Labored Victories
Parental labor days and nights,
memories and contemporary echoing traumas
of declaring Hippocratic Commitment victories,
"No one got much hurt today,"
"Non-violent communication" prevails,
verbally and non-verbally laborious,
locally and globally viral,
monoculturally and multiculturally,
on our best days,
But "not violent" is such...

Up Pops a Jester
A clown sadly crying laughter,
Prying it from grimaces that fail to smile.
Upside down grins dying on a joker's face,
Lost in a rain of tears his eyes can't see.
This creature who doesn't recognize wilderness,
A place from...

LITHIUM EQUILIBRIUM
