Through Thick and Thin
I think it might be John Rawls
who writes about

may be more deeply embedded, richly spread
in regenerative pursuing time,
producing and serving healthy wealth relationships,
often digestively motivated
to achieve nutritional communion goals,
While thinner...

Small Powers Everywhere
This little light of mine
I'm gonna let it shine
Wide and longing
for committed dialogue
not surrounded
by elitist debate,
Win/lose games,
Zero-sum asinine assumptions
requiring ego-infested shadows
Resisting win/win opportunities
of healthy
democratic dialogue
Between constituencies,
residents sufficiently humble
to become students together
and unschooled
unprofessional parents
and not...

Heart Check
Long dress… CHECK!
Natural Hair… CHECK!
Bible… CHECK!
I have on my CHURCH CLOTHES!
On the outside I look really Christian,
Like Judas- Everyone thinks my walk with Christ is real,
Deceiving myself with all these legalistic rules…
My lips- constantly talking...

Restoring Earth
How do we get to restoring democratic energy justice
for all EarthTribes?
Especially when those not originally enfranchised
in our GoodHealth Constitutions,
like slaves
like non-patriarchal
non-white
non-anthro
non-ego-centric
non-elite subcultures
advocating for non-violent communication
inside health and outside wealthy green climates
probably don't feel this...

Born One Hundred Years Too Late
My co-worker posed a theory to me
That our boss was born one hundred years later than she was supposed to be
Neither of us could exactly put our finger on why, but I had to agree
No...

Healthy Ways and Wealthy Means
Educational Competitions:
"You/We are not motivated to learn
how to take care of yourself/ourselves."
And,
We are, together, motivated to learn
how to give and receive
personal and social,
political and economic,
theological and ecological health care,
universally intended,
unitarian motivated and discerned.
Competition for resources:
"We...

Reavaluated My Spokenword
Anchored stricken;
Home grow religion;
Borrowed freedoms;
Who? Said they had the keys to the kingdoms;
Spiritual warfare Merited Men heaven stormers
Legalistic?
Arithmetic context;
Virtual biceps, malicious cell texts;
Borrowed freedoms, stolen hearts;
Who? Said they had the keys to the kingdoms,...

Memorial of a Loved One Ct
Memorial of a Loved One
In Memory of My Mother, Irene!
Some memories so terribly painful be,
and will not leave my memory.
I took care of my bedridden Mom
for five years and then..
On that sunny, dreadful July...

Healthing Voices
Personal identity,
like politically empowered/disempowered identity,
evolves within EgoSpirited voices
Exchanging feelings
with EcoSoul's outside co-relational serenity,
anima mundi
uncovering ZeroZone bilateral Janus-faces,
Non-verbal language
noticing co-relational
health and pathology
qualities sensed,
felt,
originally tasted
And
Verbal iconically quantitative patriarchal voices
for either Ego, or Eco
survivalist thinking
how to further...

Shadowed By Guilt and Shame
Shame must have burned her countenance,
along with fear that gripped her heart;
she’s a woman in the gospel brought into the open,
by those Pharisees and Sadducees in their attempt –
to entrap Jesus on the horns...

Fault Line
I never could have predicted
That I would leave in such a way
Circumstances brought me to a place
Where I could no longer stay
The legalistic rules
All of them, hypocritical fools
In all of their getting
They were too stupid...

Don'T Miss Out
Father Christ’s encounter with the Pharisees never fail to entertain.
Almost everywhere He preaches
A few people would show up
Trying to compromise His ministry
To catch Him in violation of custom or law
Mingling with known sinners
As Father Christ...

Religion
I don't like religion and
All it's legalistic ways.
You can't do this
And you must do that
In order to get God's praise.
It say's I must live a righteous
Life and do my very best,
Then you'll get God's favour,
And...

Understanding Reconciliation
Sometimes fundamentalist Christians
Give the expression “to be saved”
All you need to do is “repent”
Meaning to give up your sinful ways
This sentence from the Gospel of St. Mark
May seem to support this perspective
Trouble is
It all depends...

Considering Conditions
There are users, abusers
And bitter accusers
In the World of negative thought
There are legalistic, ballistic
And increasingly sadistic
In the World of righting the "not lot"
~On the other side~
There are roses, poses
And delivering Moses
In the World of fanatical...

Origami Legends
She has a brain full of legends.
She has a whole heart full of legends.
Shaped by summer’s yellow collar bones
She caresses a sepia hued image to her breast
And recites memories in her sleep.
Legalistic hellions
Stalk her sharp...
