Long Impeaching 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...

The Republican congressmen,
and I do mean white privileged straight men,
came to their Democratic opposition
concerned about how depressing
December can be,
and all of winter,
come to think and feel
of dark discerning Advent,

So maybe we could stage
a comedic debate
about...

Could we be doing our best
to invest in Earth's cooperative health markets?
While you sell our most competitive killing machines
to our Saudi Arabian cousins.

Referencing this touchstone as an ecopolitical WinWin,
unlike Parisian multicultural investments in climate health,

Original New Yorker Intents and Purposes

So who did you expect
to actually elect,
Vandana Shiva?

from Uniting Constitutions of MotherTrees

Tribes and groves
grow forests together
forming more therapeutically perfect Unions
of unity yin-flowing integrity,
not quite so much uniformity
of Yang's violating offensive...

Fretfully aching to feel fit as a fiddle

After experiencing a severe,
albeit violent near lethal bout
of irritable bowel syndrome
(yesterday night August 30th, 2023)
triggered courtesy dulcolax caplets plus 
healthy portion of lentils,
I (a beatle browed, foo fighting,...

I am so upset with anyone who has anything to do with Washington, the President and the swamp. The following is a compilation of my concerns. You don't have to read them, and if you...

I wake up with a great startle.

My Obama EarthTribe CoOperative WinWin GlobalVillage Dream
was merely my hibernation.
I dreamed we share richly valued properties from healthy-wealthy African Elders,
but awake, once again,
only to painfully remember
I am now merely...

Overboard
(commentary on the January 6, 2021 capitol invasion)
By Franklin Price
01/17/2021

Many have gone overboard, as we sail the ship of state
What Donald Trump did on the sixth, was far from being great
I'm not convinced, the reason...

If we stopped fighting with Iraq 
If we stopped fighting with Iran
If we stopped Impeaching Trump
If we turned our backs on war.

We could fight to save our planet
we could stand both proud and happy
with our...

We were discussing a line
between reasonable compromise
and unconscionable denial
in this time of rapidly escalating fragmentation

When I thought I heard a raw spot
deepened and widened by dissonant history
of disagreement,
antagonistic feelings about noetic consciousness
of past pathological
bad climate...

Verbal microaggressions
[You are a liar!]
neglect non-violent humanity
as macroaggressions
[uninvited explosions with intent to kill],
rather far beyond verbal bullying,
physically retaliate against abusive inhumanity,
seldom too fastidious
about recognizing collateral damage
to people
pets
plants
planet Earth.

Critical mistrust
[how does this defend democracy?]
may yet remain...

Restless hand of poet rejecting moments of idleness,
start writing and empty the unbearable heaviness:
and as the splashing waters of the waterfall plunge down
the precipice for an escapade into the distant ocean,  
they must leave...

Here I stand
Where the golden image rise
A Babel
Bowed before its feet
And music like eternity
Etherized the skies.
The cost, the cost, the cost of it
The surging pain of love's betrayal
I cannot put it down again.
I must stand,...

Holy Father
Once upon midnight prayerful
The purposeful pontifical priesting
Holy Father
while I pondered, discipline and careful
I discovered the believers
I crave the evangelic, exegetical evangelism
I crave the sacerdotal, sorrowful scriptures
Holy Father
I came believing
Deep into that darkness preaching
The Pentecostals...

I have a story to tell 
How they lived well in the dark age 
How freely people studied as a sage
That school wasn't  a hell 

There was a time 
A time when the cheers...

His passion for power weighs heavy
on his heart forging his decisions.
And he attacks sane politicians
leaking “fake news” out to depose him.

The whole world’s waiting for him to fall
yet none question his authority.
For thanks to Russian...

Gardeners and farmers know better 
than to feed and water the weeds.

Psychologists and sociologists agree, 
 best way to manage an unrepentant narcissist 
is to ignore him 
and his ego-privileged run-away lose/lose habits, 
addictions,

GANGSTER’S MOLL 

The gangster’s moll now exists
Beyond the proffered film season
Impeaching authorised fiction
With cries, and real tears. For

She and the boss presumably didn’t care
To penetrate the mysterious body
Of God in the Universe, preferring
Hot shots, to...
