Employment TraumaMy protagonist today,
a Gay Black Religious Mature Male,
not quite ready for silver-grey Obama temples
Is off this morning
to a new full-time job,

regular custodial collared routine,

Enabled EmpathyIt's weird
and sometimes wild
living with a non-LeftBrain verbal dominant
aspiring child,
now young adult
I find myself waiting for him
to nonverbally connect
and correct me
about my patriarchal domineering
economic and political ableist sins
of felt omission from commercial value
and, perhaps worse,

Greenpower DreamsLast night I dreamed.
I dream--
sometimes too athletically,
fertile regeneratively,
viral, positive and negatively
and in-between sub-climax performing
some wins and some perpetual losses
more ambiguously back and forth, up and down, in and out,
and not nearly sensual...

Dream SanctuariesI dream into my Ta(0)ist
not-Universal Yang equals
not-Unitarian Yin
Sanctuary,
expecting to be greeted
by visions
of familiar spiritual apartheid.
But I am not.
Instead,
communion in this Sanctuary
looks and resounds,
feels and resonates
with multicultural communities outside,
tilting GoldenRule windmills,
bowing toward Eastern nondual rainbows,
surfing NewMoon...

Sacred SpacemakingDear Neighbors,
community co-investors,
sharing an outdoor green riverside Commons
and an indoor
historical CommonSpace
Both, and all, sacred
to panentheistic me
and probably more mundanely secular
to monoculturing LeftBrain dominant
verbally rationalistic

And yet, co-relational lives of thought
and feeling always matter

To Grow PeaceTo faith communities

local non-profits

mediators

and practitioners for resilient

Do not deceive yourselves.

Compassionate ReturnsYour compassion reveals
mutual biological interests,
a powerful tool
for focusing fertile thoughts
and pent-up feelings
My passion regenerates
articulates
seeks to accurately label
read and process,
attend to your best nonviolent communications,
nonverbally hummed flirtations
of this
our potentially significant
Otherness.
These compassion communications,
positions,
postures,
poses,
plays,
prances and dances and trances,

Sacred RegenerationIn Regenerative Design,
dialectical cooperative contrasts
need not also mean
suspiciously diabolical
competitive win/lose opposition
to our own internal RightWing
self-righteously
kinda venomously professional
commodified LeftBrain dominant encultured
prejudiced inside privileged
ego-supremacist voices.
In Regenerative Communication,
sometimes questions
are expressed as peace-intended
hypothetical Truth Statements,
awaiting sacred polycultural transubstantiation

Strange Justice DreamsIt is a strange dream

Ecofeminist BluesInteresting

One God, Under SupremacismPlease don't share this
pledge to inter-religious allegiance
with your straight white monotheistic worshiping
friends and family,
But, just between us panentheistic ecofeminists,
sometimes,
not often enough,
we would be healthier and wealthier
to reflect together upon
Internal polytheistic integrity communications,
bilaterally organic both/and dipolar
