Premium Member Manic Depressive Climates
Depression is like dying
without hope this process will end well,
without remediation
at least not for my closely held ego-identity,
and despair 
this turning inward
creates a cocoon by avoiding outward.

Focal awareness of ego mortality, 
immanent and emanant,
eminent,
turns inward,
returns...

Premium Member Revolutions In Resistance
Before we had the LeftBrain eclipse word,
circa 1200s on back through space and time,
we had great sacred transformational co-arisings,
re-alignment as BlackHole icons
of ancient eco-alignments,
Yang solar resilience 
with Yin lunar resistance.

Before we had dualistic separation,
from sunlight's...

Imagine your favorite faith community,
whether sacredly vocationed,
or, more prosaic, secularly employed,
is also home to your local Green Freedom Party,
intentionally multipartisan.

This community intends to remain compassionately faithful 
to short-term local
through long-term global
public and climate health
of all...

When the StraightWhite Patriarchal President
sent out his Praise and Thanks Message
"We love you"
to those who would cathartically enjoy beheading
VicePresident St. Peter's Pence 
loves homophobic St. Paul,

This felt like too much tolerating
an unconstitutional intolerable

Premium Member Dr Fuller's Unitarian Community
Let's start with one shared understanding:
life is a more dynamically relational synonym for "nature".

So when we ask,
What is the purpose of life?
we are also asking,
What is nature's purpose?
which sounds similar to asking if evolution is...

Premium Member Bipolarity
BiPolarity
has been largely ignored
polarization,

Linear and stagnant hierarchies
peaking in well-capitalized severance
and sterile self-satiation

Use you
then leave you
win/lose planning
and worldview design
by non-feminists

Uninspired by EarthTribe's co-arising,
Both/And reconsidering
depolarizing
dipolarization

Bruised blue traumatic,
and green grown therapeutic
sides of each red coin's
capitalization

Of Left hemisphere's newer
monotheistic...

I know if I say
That reeks, deplorable,
She will only be persuaded

That is adorable.

Then I might say
I meant intolerable,
And she will insist
I remain adorable,
with a dismissive smile
toward my alien intolerance
as bigotry.

I'm musing with Jill Lepore,
historian (Harvard feminist, but definitely within brackets of general interest),
through eight hundred pages of These Truths
telling an other U.S. herstory.

She starkly says,
"Slavery is political"
while I had been thinking more of addictive...

Premium Member Sublime Oppressions
When "oppressive"
becomes synonymous with "government"
and when "government"
becomes synonymous with "bureaucracy"

Then "oppressive government bureaucracy"
sounds like a redundant bad-boy platitude,
ungrateful anthro-
elitist attitude,
absence of relationships 
for which I might feel
non-egged on
and non-eggheaded
regular
everyday
humane/divine 
peace mindfull 
gratitude. 

While "enlightened government...

Vulnerability is rich soil for gratitude
while Yang strength is rockier,
less robust for absorbing flows of nurturing waters.

Just as gratitude 
is richer soil for abundance
than Yang attitudes
of elitist patriarchal supremacy.

At Yang's perpetual adolescent table,
each diner has...

Could chronic stress,
like sleep deprivation,
noise and light and air pollution

by avoiding barely still alive

Sometimes sadly beginning
prior to economic and political puberty

Including multi-generational suppression
misogynistic sex tensions
and monotheistic depression
and homophobic repression,
hateful Othering paranoid impressions,

Oh say, did you notice
a national predative anthem?
Moving immediately
urgently,
without reflection of starlight

From waving flags predicting elite weapons
fueled by complexly masculine 
emasculating
militarized corporate industries
of mutual defensive risks
against international cooperative opportunities

Or terror aggressively swims upstream Fear

How wrong could I be
were I to assume
most Taliban leaders

as it is not specifically healthy
to be a male in such a violent

nutritionally-barren place

And Taliban parents
might also have kids hungry and thirsty

Could you imagine,
A face like that?
Created by the face of an angel
And modeled like fashion
For the damned and deceased.

Drunk on insomnia and aging,
Kissing the pavement
With bare and busied feet.
