bringing the avid listener 
into my private mancave hideaways
less a physical place than a juncture in relationship,

Faith In History Lessons

Patterns of phylogenic history
retell our creative creation story
as bicameral restoration
of Earth's nature-spirit ecology,
both Eastern karma
and Western co-redemptive grace.

Spiritual memory experience
of RNA
and later DNA developments
and traumatic extinctions,
positive great transitions
and double-negative traumas;
are exegetical rhythms
and sacred seasoned pattern...

What Are We Learning

What have you learned from your family experience
that influences your position
on public health and safety,
national health defense
and economic offensives you might propose
for healthier individuals

An Anxiously Anticipated Event

Dear John,

All day
yesterday
I loaded up with a cascading river
of mixed anxiety and anticipation
about what to safely and kindly,
transparently and vulnerably
compassionately, so non-violently, share,
what to communicate;

Which narrative tributaries to choose
within this vast spacetime stream
of choices
directions
felt depressions...

Conspiring Muses

I've heard about non-violent communication
but wasn't deeply listening.
It didn't seem to have much of a plot,
a lack of creative tension,
drawing my full survivalist attention.

So this is probably all wrong
that I'm not owning my conspiring dissonant...

and peak experiences felt
through love of life

weightless

Freeing secular monopolistic brains
deeply thoughtful glad
LeftBrain speaking minds
no longer stuck
in win/lose  sad

Dear Evangelical Brother

Dear Brother,

When we were children
adults often asked us
What do you hope to be
when you grow up?

But, our brothers and sisters
were more likely,
and probably more wise,
to ask
Who would you most hope to become?
To be like?

Which implies,...

Persevere Steps Out

Gaia steps out

She may roar in full voiced 
crescendo

Then retreat, hiding
anticipating with global delight

Tomorrow
our first perfect win/win day
when no win/lose to lose/lose
has unpromisingly happened
to trigger my anxiety,

Of win/win delight
empowering Sun's sacred

You'Re It, the Secret

"You’re It, The Secret"



Inside you
a whole new world

Outside 
You … exist

Outside
the game is ‘resist’

such an anxious world
the questions forever 

pressing on 
You

wanting answers
your gardens soiled and turned

new seeds for blooming
planted

your muddied waters
