Grand Mother Eartha's DreamMy 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

SnapshotsSnapshots
by Michael R. Burch
Here I scrawl extravagant rainbows.
And there you go, skipping your way to school.
And here we are, drifting apart
like untethered balloons.
Here I am, creating "art,"
chanting in shadows,
pale as the crinoline moon,
ignoring your face.
There...

Pequot River Land TrustOnce,
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,
but...

where at last they chained and bound you;
with devices all around you
to torture and confound you,
I found you—shivering, bare.
They had shorn your raven hair
and taken both...

Regret
by Michael R. Burch
Regret,
a bitter
ache to bear...
once starlight
languished
in your hair...
a shining there
as brief
as rare.
Regret,
a pain
I chose to bear...

the torrent
of your hair...
and show me

Yangyyolks With Yinyin-WhitesStart and end each day,
and life,
with a taoist egg.
I doubt my eggs are religious.
No, but they are natural,
organic incubators,
co-arising nondual yolk form
with white-transparent regenerative function,
teleology,
and cosmology, maybe,
if you're a chicken,
or a turkey,
or a...

Bipartisan DissonanceWhen 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.

Psychotripic Theory of EverythingCompassion co-arises nondually
internal-external.
Today I want to talk about possibilities
for integral polycultural dynamics,
which are systemic relationships,
correlations,
between LeftBrain deductive ego-mind,
RightBrain inductive eco-body,
and a boundary between these bicameral landscapes,
which we call unconsciousness.
The feasibility
and health value
of recognizing this...

Light On the Devil's Chord - Day 37I heard two distinct voices in the night,
Conversing amongst themselves most eagerly
They whispered like children in excitement
Their sardonic mouths sung many savvy tunes

And he, a strange, distant friend
