Noneastern Family Politics

I began reading Jane Anna Gordon's "Creolizing Political Theory"
from the back toward the front,
as usual,
because if I appreciate where this narrative journey will end,
then I probably will find we start off with similar questions

All That Was Sparta

Our lusty voice was in the tramp of narrow, winding,
     Scree-littered, deep-rutted roads;     
 Ravens, uttering guttural croaks, slow-wheeling above

I (a youthsome, wholesome, jokesome, handsome,...
gamesome, chucklesome, bothersome,
and awesome modest fellow)...
does not deliberately court immortalization,
and wonders what criteria confer elevation,
exaltation, glorification, hero worship,
idolization, veneration, or worship.

I go about a daily humdrum routine

Trial of Red and White Fire

Centuries ago

In ancient Hermopolis

A debate roared loud

Between a proud Christian priest

And a strange shepherd

Who was a Manichaean

Wearing ragged clothes

And who was looking for sheep

“Flames will consume you”

The priest roared at the shepherd

Because their debate

Was going...

Au Revoir Oh Perilous Freedom

Au revoir oh perilous freedom...

Since pledging my troth
to the missus July 25th, 1996

punctuated mein kampf with disequilibrium.

of life, liberty and pursuit of happiness
coalesced within the mindscape
attributed to one

In the silky night, dotted with mystery

In the silky night, dotted with mystery,
Where the moon's thread weaves shadows on the paths,
The heart, a thin garment, a flash in the ether,
Listens as the time from the hourglass seeps away,
And its rhythm, a...

Just Show Up

Basic Attendance,
listening deeply to the sounds

flows and forms of nature's voices,
human nature's moving choices
evolve from panentheistic roots
toward win/win co-empathic,
vulnerably transparent
nondual dark energy

Equivalently empowering/disempowering identity
of not-yet-full synergetically integrating
Other/Selfing
pregnantly individuating Time,
equivocating re-incarnating
personal space
through sacred communal time

Tavira is my town

Much like me

Ancient times still apparent
Different people now
A different time

With donkeys or on...

Bringing to his lips a long clay pipe
Steadying for a light, his gnarled knuckles make this a fight

Loaded like a gun, about to fire away and I’ve become numb inside
Sugarcoated in lullabies and lies today…in the shadows, I simply hide
