Ode To the Blessed Rebekah

On Mother's Day.
That Sabbath Day, I put flame to eight candles and knelt down to pray.

I humble myself with fasting to intensify my communication with God who is our all and all.
During that spiritual and very significant time of the morning, I gave our powerful Heavenly Father a call.

So much of the misery of life is in me and I have the weight of my daughter's physical and mental health tormenting my mind.
On that golden day, I was filled with the confidence that God will put someone in our path at the right time.

God is the lamp in my darkness.
God is my consoler during my torment and the booster of calmness.

Previously we were in a meltdown dealing with many healthcare providers with high costs and impassive procedures.
They were unimpressive, obtuse, and unrefined sloths to work at their own leisure.

It was in God's measurement of existence and his most magnificent grace that he sent a radiant helianthus.
It was a transcendental rush.

She entered our home with a wide smile and a sanguine temperament.
She had a stalwart faith in getting things started right away with plans and proficient decisions that she wanted to implement.

Her objective was to provide my daughter with the best comprehensive and viable care plan.
She restored our faith and we became a fan.

She was full of wisdom, yet she was a proponent of sensibility.
She was polished by the grace of God with compassion and empathy.

Like the nature of a helianthus, she would never fold because God is her sun and shield.
In her mien, it is greatly revealed.

When her task is done and it is time for her to say goodbye.
We will miss her, but we will give her a brave smile and sigh.
I will thank our Heavenly Father as I looked to the sky.

If someone would ask, how was she as a provider, we are truly in need, so please tell us.
I will simply say, she is not a weed, but a blessed and beautiful helianthus.

Premium Member Damned By the Bomb

Lancaster formations
One two and three
To attack the dams
Off Industrial Germany
 
Targets to hit
In the Ruhr valley
Power providers
Canal alley
 
RAF Scampton
Near Lincoln they load
This barrelled bomb
Bounced to explode
 
Runway lined
Engines roar
Crews ready 
Tally Ho!
 
Flying low to reach their quest
Allied pilots at their best
Flak explodes all around
As the Germans hear our engine sounds
 
Targets reached as they circle round
To gauge their height as it bounces sound
Steady steady let her go
As it hits the water
First bounce slow
 
Second bounce, momentum gain
These dams, not to be the same
Clinical strike as it hits the wall
Sinks, explodes 
Crumbling walls
 
Minutes pass
As the crew's look back
To observe the severity of the attack
Nearly out of sight, as the walls finally gave
Cascades of water in thunderous rage
 
The Möhne and Eder breached as planned
Missions accomplished on these German dams
German war effort, hampered for a spell
As for the rest of the conflict
Time would tell

Bar

Everyday we mimic the bar for instance the electric wire, 
     the ways, the road leading to the north, the road leading 
   to the west or east or south, 
 or sometimes the ropes and somehow their threads and 
    towers?, 
  and sometimes the cars themselves that travel away?, 
    and the vision of the swans and the movements of the 
    winds about the weather of the day?. 
 And sometimes monsters' dreams and eeries and zombies 
    and all sorts of clumsy witches. 
  And sometimes all what is neither blue nor barmaid 
  and barcodes providers and nightmares of let say 
      backyard bro bro bro....

The Chennai Floods - Second Part

THE CHENNAI FLOODS - SECOND PART


No food nor drinking water, those alive, pity
Faced chillness, starvation and panic in eyes
No medicines, no blankets and no clothes 
People succumbed in homes and on roads

Hundreds of people dead; countless injured
Houses and cars in thousands submerged 
All essential storage quickly lost; and no food
Nor shelter; alas providers became seekers

A catastrophe that none believed will happen,
Occurred anyway, as people simply wilted low
Money and materials could not be of help
As holding hands alone forebode being alive

The future looked suddenly bitter and bleak 
With money, valuables and motorcars lost
Very difficult it looked to make good the loss
As personal belongings all vanished in a toss

And by the time the boats came calling
And relief was in sight; most people had 
Lost the battle and barely held their lives
The unrelenting flood having spewed its wrath

The misfortune threw up the good Samaritans
For many showed up, courting risk upfront 
To save many a folk, with dedication abound
In desperate time providing solace and succor 

Brave young volunteers were there in full
To reach supplies for people in a mess
But the disaster had hit in full, long before
Many need decades to get back, as before.

And then army men arrived to ferry in boats
Saving people, marooned and maligned 
Helicopters dropped food for hungry mouths
As pilots picked the sick and the hopeless

The Government claimed it did its part, well
While the critics made a lot of noise, as ever 
Alas people were left, high and dry; dismayed
To mourn the loss and weep, in silent mode!

Some said the authority failed; in their role
Some said it was “El Nino” “Climate Change”
Many attributed: highest rainfall in 100 years!
But I know: Millions of folk took a mighty blow!

Premium Member Our Daily Heroes

As others run as hard as they can 
To get out of the way of the sick and diseased
The doctors and the nurses dash toward them

As others turn their faces inward, 
The health providers open their arms and hearts
Giving the afflicted a bit of comfort and hope

As others ignore what is happening
Hoping it will not affect them or their loved ones
The nurses and doctors try to get a bit of sleep

Knowing they will get up the next day and do it all again
And the day after that and the week after that
Until they have nothing left to give.

The healthcare workers of the world are currently on the front lines,
Ready to give whatever support is needed, sometimes laying down their lives 
To do what God has called them to do. 
They are our heroes. Let us revere them and send them prayers.

Premium Member Hunger Management

Variations on a Punishing Theme

When people are hungry and at risk of homelessness
despair
chronic depression
and climatic extinction

Is it because their leaders 
and community developers,
learning incubators 
and technical assistance providers,
grantors and lenders,
representatives 
and public sector service providers
absorb too many investments and nutrients
for their own mouths and mortgages?
sleeping soundly at night
unaware of how their Continuous Quality Improvement intentions
economically and ecologically miss their mark
of solidarity and mutual subsidiarity,
of recreating the comfort and nutrients
they intended to invest in those with greater need.

Perhaps the self-blaming unruliness of hungry homeless people
Is due to oversight interference of well-intended practitioners
expert administrators
senior consultants
expertly dominating fragile margins of poverty
feeding dissonant anger and fear
and mistrust.

Chronically at-risk species fear living death's dissonance 
and entropic non-thrival trends,
Because we are anxious to survive,
to build life; not so much death and perpetual advent.
Wilting personal lives 
have no bandwidth left
for righting macrosystemic death trends.
It is mutual-mentors who co-invest in cooperative thriving,
That incarnate wise evolution of deep ecologically balancing lives.

Self-composting toilets
have surprisingly greater nurturing value
to people without a pot to pee in
than community-composting banks
and governments.

Premium Member The Medical Providers Runaround

They did the same thing to my mother, Eleanor May Dubarry, no provider including Medicare wanted to pay her final medical expenses,
including transportation to and from the Everett's Providence Hospital.
It seems they really wanted either her or me to pay them instead.

But they never did admit to it.  After she died, my middle brother Dale, made copies of her death certificate and I mailed them to all the involved parties.  Because I did not have Power of Attorney, they really could not hold me accountable.  Cathy Mutschuler, DSHS kept telling us, my mom did not have to pay!

There have been other instances.  An elders couple in Ferndale, Washington, could not afford to pay for their prescriptions.  They had their own final solution. They decided, not Almighty God, when they had the right to die.  I am sure many tears were cried and many hearts were broken in to.  How many times tragic scenarios like this happen?  Even the news media probably does not even know.

What is a woman to do when her medical provider, United Health care does not honor her claim?  Her other provider also will not pay her medical bills. She has been to see Governor Jay  Inslee and our federal representatives. They promised her they would help, but no affirmative action was taken. And now she is being hounded by bill collectors demanding payment.

Both of us are believers in Jesus Christ.  I told her to contact problem solvers, but to pray about it first.  Yes, I am a Democrat, who is also a Christian! I am a supporter of our Governor and Federal Representative and Senator. I honestly believe they intended to help her.  But failed to do so. This is why the title of this narrative poem is entitled the Medical provider runaround. And yes I am on United Health Care and they have good go me. Delloney will help me apply for Medicare before I turn 65 October 4th of this year.

Share your own stories in your own words and in your own ways.  And always remember to pray!  I pray to Jesus Christ.  And this poem is my prayer for help and guidance.

Love as always,
Love in Christ Jesus!

Premium Member 3rd Child

My story is quite simple
My husband and I had been faithfully  
Correctly using birth control for almost 13 years 
We’d forgotten it only once

 Resulting in the birth of our second child in 2005 
However, in spite of proper use
Birth control failed again in 2015
After learning I was pregnant for the 3rd time

My husband and I sat down to discuss our options 
What a new child would mean for our family 
Money was tight, our marriage was struggling, and at nearly 40 
I didn’t feel that I could handle another pregnancy and childbirth 

At the end of our discussion 
My husband said,
 “We’ve never considered this before, but do you want this child?” 
I replied simply, “No.” 

He said he didn’t either, but that he’d support any decision I made.
At the end of our discussion


Even though it was his child
He recognized that the decision was ultimately mine
Living in Nevada, we didn’t have to deal with unreasonable restrictions 
There were no protesters to meet us at the clinic 

The only obstacle we faced 
No providers in the area took my insurance
We had to pay the $500 out of pocket 
I made the appointment for that Thursday

So that I wouldn’t miss any work
Less than a week after discovering I was pregnant
At the clinic
 I received a trans-l ultrasound to verify how far along I was: 4 weeks. 

The blastocyst was about the size of a sesame seed
Exactly what it looked like 
At such an early stage
A medical abortion was my only option 

I took the first pill at the clinic 
Was told most women don’t start bleeding heavily 
Until after taking the second pill the next day
I’m not most women 

Started bleeding heavily enough 
I had to leave work early Friday 
The pain didn’t start until after I took the second pill
It hurt, but was no worse than cramps amplified by food poisoning

I was glad for the pain medication the doctor had prescribed me
Then, it was over
I bled for about 3 weeks and then everything returned to normal. 
I admit some initial doubt that we were making the correct decision

Was willing to accept that doubt 
After about a year, that doubt has disappeared 
During the process
I didn’t feel alone because my husband was right there with me

Premium Member Liberating Green Philanthropists

I doubt a benefactor,
philanthropist,
a short-term financial investor,
could optimally provide
protect
prevail with
an ecopolitically healthy therapeutic service

Yet,
intersectionally,
interdependently,
multiculturally,
poly-sensorily
fall far short
of co-investing in cooperative
sacred green ecofeminist
organic empowering
and enlightening communion.

Disempowering
codependent
anthrosupremacist services
in some way(s) Other,
commodifying non-profit and government intention,
subjugating potential enrichment rivals,
marginalizing direct service providers

These, often HealthTrust and WealthBeauty associated,
wise EarthMother's most sacred multi-sensory recreations
regeneratively throw resonant
and resilient
enlightening
and empowering
bicameral
bilateral

bionic
bigenderal opportunities
for and of restoring 
CoAttaching Green EcoPolitical Communion,

All co-invested cooperative life systems
are about as likely to have appeared,
as disappeared,
win/win TrueAtomic
and Synergetic WaveLinear

As a Yang/Yintegral polyculturing ****
creolizing his/her/their predative PatriarchOther
needs sacred HerOther
in hearted heat Welcoming-Wombing Self

More than S/He lives to merely
ever-more serve philanthropic benefits
as unfavorably contrasted with 
committing to cooperatively lusty solidarity
empowering and enlightening 
fertile resilient thriving

Entries and exits
for compassion
passions cooperatively climaxing,
ecopolitically predicting long-term healthy
and safe win/win
global,
universally uniting afterglow

At least more so
than waking up the next morning
sadly realizing your latest RightWing investment
further jeopardizes health
and safe wealth of all our grandchildren
and their rusty food chains
and their green climate healthcare infrastructures
and their ecopolitical co-investing wealth cooperatives
and their Plant and Animal Lives Matter 
indigenous green wisdom deals.
