Bipartisan DissonanceWhen oppositional cognitive dissonance
deflects focus from compassion,
I've learned to go back to when I deflected focus from her.
She sends me passive-aggressive messages,
bread crumbs leading back in time
to where she began to feel alone,
marginalized,
siloed,
anxious,
neglected.

Empathy As Green DemocracyI don't think it's just me.
I find myself challenged to change LeftBrain cognitive beliefs,
languaged abstractions of personal knowledge,

Naked Redmeat EmperorsRE: Continuing RedMeat Only,
much less any Green Leafy Salads
Abraham Lincoln thought it politically unhealthy,
and probably economically unwise,
to disinvest his Cabinet,
much less his entire Constitutionally incorporated population,
from ecopolitical diversity.

probably not an all RedMeat...

Remembering Radical RelativesExplain your historical evolution radically, inclusively, expansively, good-humoredly;
not carefully, deductively, reductively, sarcastically.
We once had a school of thought
among up and coming geneticists and historians
that the precursor to the regeneration of a species,
or even an...

Life Through a Thousand DeathsHere life waits
with a thousand little discontinuous deaths, again,
right here in The Evolving Self's
sixth principle of preferable options for more humane revolutions

Engaging the Family LaundryPerhaps infertile
incomplete
unwashed memories
of elder v younger,
Goliath v David,
crusades v communion
critical, yet part of chronic, events
speak extended family disengagement truth

Voting With Our FeetIt seemed to me,
when I was eight,
U.S. Christian disciples and teachers

And had fundamentally boiled it down
to settling for such small subcontinental WhitePatriarchal colonizing gratitude
for God's universally healthy

Love Lesson PlanningFirst, imagine, if you can,
"Love" is not just a many splendored thing,
although it is that,
but behaviorists and existentialists behavioralize
the complex of emotions and consciousness
wearing that synergetic label
as active, sometimes spontaneous
"cooperation,"

Family TherapyFeminist ecotherapists,
deeply immersed in polycultural ecology,
a systematic teleology of cooperative nutrition economics,
remain rarely flushed out from their safe spots.
A self-isolating,
often eremitic,
subspecies,
with shamanic nature-as-spirit tendencies,
our most articulate mentors often wander off
to pray for,

Jesus Christ As Climate SaviorTo my sisters,
and narrow-way brothers,
in Jesus Christ
as Supreme U.S. Savior,
I reached U.S. voting age during the 70s.
During this time,
the Religious Right
and Republican Party Center
