Long Placeholder Poems

Imagine we live in an eco-normative story
of competing for wealth-commodities,
cash piled in quantifiable currencies,
collectively blinded to our Win-Win
natural economic,
ecological,
psychological,
biological health and well-being 
nurturing value roots.

One day, our PolyCultural Received View
unveils a co-operatively synergetic evolution

Let’s say the number 1
iconically speaks in Left-Yang Universal Language,
root of ecosystemetrics,

while PlaceHolder (0)

influenced by feelings of EarthCentric  BiCameral Consciousness

I was interviewing ecotherapeutic health workers
and ran into one from the Conceptualist School
of Positive Psychology.

While this sounded quite abstractly wonderful,
I asked her for the elevator version.

"Ceptual" derives from "septum",
a (0)-centric bilateral boundary platform
for "conceptual" as...

"Universe to each must be
All that is, including me.
Environment in turn must be
All that is, excepting me."

Evolving Universe to each must become
All integrity that is, including me.

I remember my mindbody would tense
sometimes
then relax into confusion
while non-consiliently reading Bucky Fuller's "Synergetics 2."

I also remember,
and too often reweave,
Fuller's stream of thought ecoconsciousness
as I read  Beck and Cowan on the well-timed subject 
of...

Dregs and tumors of decay
co-arise therapies 
for humoring healthy
wealthy life.

Those who stand on tiptoe do not stand firm;
Those who stand with equal weight,
bipedal-planted, do stand resiliently firm.

Those who strain their leftbrain stride 
do not walk...

Bodhisattvas turn airflow into flames,
water into Earth
as Jesus turned baptismal waters
into blood red rivers
of warm nutritious wine.

OCD

Working on compiling and editing my latest project
even my dreams become an obsessive loop

mostly just the same few over and over
placeholder symbols for other symbols

We each step into

Mnid playrugond a laynbirth mzaing plzuze.
Intricately woven words amaze with nuzzle.
Nurturing emotions, they ascend,
Delicate meanings, they transcend.

Piercing through the depths of the soul.
Liberating thoughts from their hidden role.
Awakening dormant expressions with grace.
Yielding to the poet's...

Did you want to come back home? Were you
buying me coffee but thinking of them? Did
your housekeys start to open their door and
lock ours? When I held your hand was I just
a placeholder, again?

I’m not the girl
You fall hopelessly,
Madly, irrevocably
In love with.

I’m the girl
Who holds her place.

You won’t fall 
In love with me
At first sight.

You won’t get 
That meet cute,
The one you’ll have
With her.

I’m the girl 
You have...

Her heart was preoccupied. 
Many men came knocking. 
Looking for a home. 
Looking for refuge, 
not knowing she was the storm. 

She gave them grace 
and a smile, 
but no love. 
She could not give...

for Hidipo Hamutenya
1939-2016

At the end of this hard road
Spider webs adorn the graveyards
Of all those who reach freedom
By intellectual decree.
The tears of the fallen
Are not anywhere to be found,
In the eyes of the surviving.

Who am I
If not Myself?

The meaning of life?
This question has been asked for millennia.
Some say there is no meaning, life is just a placeholder between oblivions.
Others say God breathe life into man for a greater purpose, intimately meaningful.

You're nothing. Yet, the highest of worth to numbers you add,
Could one think of the algebraic structures without you?
In your addition, numbers, like bricks on buildings, get clad,
You play a placeholder role; in your role,...
