Long Medicines Poems

The title of this talk today,
"Win-Win Politics of New Feminist Economics"
suggests questions,
more than emasculating 
definitively deductive
reductive
answers.

Would you imagine
a minority-identified Buddhist,

to establish...

I am reading minds and potentially wise political bodies
with Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, again.

He speaks of three interdependent aspects of wisdom.
The first is rooted in ecoconscious comprehension

for my everyday time budget
of liberal
liberated
liberating 
resonantly exhausting compassion.

integrity 
of co-empathic co-arising intent

Darkness in Her Dungeon
 
 
 
 
 
No morning no bright sun

A black bundle in swirl
 
A hostile world looming
 
All conspiring...
