When we compare the numbers
and percentages of innocent,
trusting lives lost
in significant part because of Christian
militarized
capitalized
patriarchal
monotheistic judging fundamentalism,
punishing Afghanistan
and other Islamic cultures
over the past four or five decades,
To the number
and percentage of innocent
economically and politically trusting lives
lost in significant part
because of Moslem militarized
capitalized
patriarchal
monotheistic vengeful fundamentalism,
punishing the U.S.
and other NorthWestern Christian cultures
The outsized scale of human
and darkening environmental casualties
in brown Afghanistan
does not redeem Bin Laden's terrifying success
on 9/11.
But, this difference in chronic ballistic stress
does suggest why
a well-capitalized terrorist
was able to garner so much economic
and political support
from those already too familiar
with sudden
tragic
violent loss of family
and friends.
This is not to say U.S victims
and non-victims (should there be any)
asked for vengeful death
nor deserved such tragic
excruciating loss,
But
these same losses
may remind us
we, as a democratically healthy
responsible wealthy nation,
a polycultural society,
could have listened with more extensive
bilaterally compassionate ears
and mass mediated eyes,
to the rapacious horror,
loss,
trauma,
fear,
anger,
hate,
chronic anxiety,
post- and pre-traumatic stress disorder
Perpetuated by militarized
capitalized
patriarchal
monotheistic
dogmatic
RightWing
LeftBrain dominant privilege
elitism
supremacy
autistic autocracy
greedy kleptocracy
dissociative denialism
Doubt in cooperative polycultural powers
of global compassion
love
actively provoking hope,
healthy trust in win/win
global resolutions.
Within these powers
of seasonably healthy reason,
perhaps we could have heard,
as Albert Einstein
so impatiently exhorted,
to do more of the mighty same
of what is tearing us terrifyingly apart,
is our distressing height
of straight white anthroprivileged ignorance.
a man
knelt down in his secluded den
and called God’s name; there was no answer to his call
he went to the deep mountain,
cleansed himself in the stream of clear water
and mediated with an empty mind; there was no vision whatsoever
he abandoned the mountain for the sea
“O Lord, look at me…” there was not
even an echo came back to his ears
he came to the middle of wilderness to look up the sky
yonder the horizon, his tears ran down his cheeks because
he was so sad; there, no one was helped to dry his tears
he left for a long journey with sack-full old memories
in his back like a vanquished warrior who also lost his home;
no one was followed him
at the time of nightfall he was leant on the wall of house
left in ruin and murmured while gazing blankly at sunset glow,
“there’s no God, is it?” the wall fell to the ground
thenceforth he was not found in anywhere
no one saw him ever since
Capital investments,
cooperative more than competitive,
socially mediated more than antisocially premeditated
green health more than white wealth motivated,
are remarkably contrasted,
most certainly not equivalent to,
kleptocratic capital-city privileged capitalism.
Liberal corporate-infested capitalism,
with narcissistic quarterly accounting bottom lines
are not the same as cooperative encircling
capital co-investment.
Democratic positive energy balances
do not tip quietly
toward hoarding wealth
while strangling polyculturally co-invested health.
Win/Lose global competitions
to rape what's left of fading MotherEarth
follow climate degenerating trends
toward green-health detachment.
Competitive human nature,
challenging EarthMother co-investing spirits
self-predict future fragmented losses for dying Anthros
and loss of natural/spiritual co-arising life
for all species requiring fertile wombs,
eggs,
seeds,
DNA,
RNA,
Green and blue and red and yellow
ultra-nonviolent
regenerating life's well-seasoned communications,
integrity deep black through transparent energy white
communions,
EarthCommon health-wealth polypaths
back through nutritional Earth History,
not so toxically divesting
of HerStoried Earth.
The poet begins the reading
'I'm sentimental if you know what I mean.'
'Oh, that's good!'
I thought about this cuckoo hissing
At the Botanical Gardens
He'd also mediated on the stratosphere
That sponge up above
Accordingly, so did I too
Footslogging around the museum
I took a sufti at my phone by the toilets
A headline caught my attention
Liverpool to sack Jürgen Koop
Kooped up in this nightmare exhibition
We came across a giant redwood
The trunk constructed out of metal
To enlighten the children
To prepare them for the future
My son explains his steam engine
A whole troupe of burly men
Black soot and freezing cold snow
Three layers of woollen jumpers
Sod the blast pipe carbon dioxide
Your Austrian Giesl burp
There are bigger concerns
Than soil degradation
Yes, the fireman is wearing clothes
The shoveller is wearing clothes
But the driver is naked
I was never so childhood invincible
as when invisibility empowered.
We are never so integrity distinguished
than when actively flexible.
Earth could channel West-hemisphere wealth competitions
monoculturing
healthiest when East/West nondual WholeEarth cooperative
polyculturing.
LeftBrain psyches of dominant cognitive dissonance
are never so invincible
as when RightBrain prominently cooperative Whole
integrity of Default Mode Network,
invisibly Win/Win bicameral
bilateral
binomially co-passionate.
I have never been so old age invincible
as when invisible ego/eco-empowered,
in/out mediated,
median minded,
cooperative default mode hearted.
Economic messages,
models,
exchanges,
transactions,
investments and divestments,
restorations and extractions,
therapies and punishments,
health and pathology
come from diverse secularized capital media,
like egos,
and nutritional flows,
health norms
and energy centers,
power points.
Similarly,
ecological messages,
transfers of nutritional resources
and toxic demons,
are read in diverse media climates
of water restorative balance
and extractive flowing floods and pollution,
of soil health and pathology,
of wind power and superpowers of hurricanes,
of fire restoring warmth
but also extractively devouring,
therapeutic restorations
and punishing retributions through over-extractive imbalance.
Capital is to economics
as Energy is to ecology;
each resiliently mediated by WinWin positive intent
to cooperatively invest
and predative WinLose negative intent
to compete against other capital-centered climates
of holonic unrest.
Capitalism extracts nutrition
where ReStorative CoOperatism co-invests cultures of loving health
in budgets,
creolizing plans and designs
and mutual intent toward polyculturally positive outcomes for All

we learned to live on breadcrumbing
to orbit without return
haunting for love
a kittenfisher smiled
through borrowed summers
a catfisher built an entire moon
we endured benching
cushioning
roster dating—
hearts lined as spare chairs
after the guests had gone
I practiced love bombing
you future faking
the skilled preferred negging
one small faultline opening under load
and a place to live inside it
we drifted through situationships
through talking stages
through the annual migration
of ghosting, zombieing and hoovering
a hard launch
a soft launch
then pocketing
banksying taught us
how to leave without leaving
ghostlighting taught us
how to return without arriving
meanwhile the wildflowerers
flowered
the slow daters
kept their own time
every exclusive
promise
stalled at a DTR
frozen at the lip
of the relationship escalator
watching the steel teeth
flatten and disappear
red flags
snapped in the wind
green flags
semaphored
beige flags overgrown
in the yard
one night the throngers
argued hot takes beneath the stars
I felt the ick
you went delulu
someone else shrekking at last
laughed with their whole strange face
and for a moment
nobody was performing
just two people
standing outside the slang
while every
label we had worn
blew past—
confetti and bleached receipts
a failure to launch
breaking open in beach grass
Not so dear DT:
Many voices have avoided asking you
obviously challenging questions,
Like, "Why?"
I have a different
but related choice question:
Ten years from 2020 revision,
would you rather be dead
or a silently cancelled mystery
rightly left behind
by a more resilient
blood red
healthier EarthClimate
history?
This is my rightful
red-blooded
Earth patriotic question
for not only unjust you.
The entirely apartisan U.S. Senate
comes immediately to what's left
of my right mind,
Especially those egregiously unclean
unrepentantly ungreen,
which seems to clearly exclude
no one
from blue penitence
seeking more red hot hope
for ecological salvation.
Better off already dead?
Or still breathing
but more left living behind,
out of over-invested
nemesis light?
Why, AntiUncle Samson,
Why?
What in degenerative
dogmatic Hell
was our bad trip
without soulful you
all about?
The journey toward forgiveness
is a long one,
short on patience,
bankrupt
for culpable slack,
publicly mediated lack
of green clean curiosity.
Redemption begins with:
Hi. I am DeToxifying Donald.
I am part political fascist
and part economic fool.
I'm sorry.
Let me make reparations
by donating what little is left,
not yet self-righteously destroyed,
to Earth's Feminist Future Gardeners
already permaculturing peace.
Then, cancelling
my monoculturing
"DT right is only red"
brand,
I choose to disappear
into a transgender nunnery
to clean ungilded toilets
To clean the pots
we have all marginally peed in
for myself
by myself
swiftly cancelled
by unplanned climate change
like everyone else.
The culture of any education system,
including a national multi-mediated,
possibly under-medicated,
Education/miseducation
Healthy/pathological

communication relationships
include a "PLEASE SHUT UP"
non-verbal divest of attention
remove from esteemed status,
degenerate into lesser caste
class system

and deplore messages.
We speak this language
in silent
stunning
shunning.
Would that a recent former Chief Executive White Officer
could attend such a multi-internationally
co-mediated shunning school
of silent microphones,
still cameras
pointed in most any other direction,
Preferably more multiculturally intelligent

more than miseducationally rabid,
