Eve .... “Life”, living, lively from the day it began

        Very much a woman because she was taken out of “Man”

                Eager to please fellow man


Raining with budding inspiration for creativity in the arts 

        Overly sympathetic nature arouses storms of emotional feeling in the heart

                Peace of mind and the love awakes for  true relaxation creed

                        Embodied with ambitious and open to rational ideas that led

                                 Rooted to responsibilities and harvest religious belief

Premium Member One Normal Person In Chaos

Rounds of rockets shattered the peace, 
Bullets ricocheted from out of nowhere,
And nothing made sense in this alien world, 
Where chaos was friends with the air,

He was hit, fell and dragged, minus his feet, 
Through turmoil and trouble and strife,
And rushed to a medic, working with bustle, 
Working to save his small life,

But even the medic healed in an extreme of disorder, 
As his legs became a calm numb,
That’s when he met the parson, the one rational man, 
Who was his father, his brother, his mum.

The pastor was the only reality he had, 
The pastor walked him through the unknown,
When nothing was normal, the pastor held onto his hand, 
To take his mind back to his home.

Premium Member First Sunrise Service

My first great faith journey
involved exiting EarthMother's nighttime womb,
without even a first language
except what RightBrain inherited
from noticing emotive taste and feel
and healthy/pathological touch
memories prehistorically Win/Win
and Win/Lose
and Lose/Lose souled
unsoiled either happy or mad,
learning both/and health-resilient midways.

From such humble nutritional/toxic expectations,
and win/lose annunciations
of EarthTribe's integral potential,
wealthy yang opportunities and yin-unhealthy risks,
through adolescent win/lose romantic invested engagements

On through my own forty-year corporate adult commodified faith journey
ensuing 
pursuing my great white-male privileged American dream;

A win/lose business-as-usual pilgrimage
toward my more recent retiring win/win destiny,
for healthy wise-elder now
unhealthy other-wise then

Not really a chosen win/win destination
freely destined to and as begun
with integrity of ego-me inside sacred eco-Other
co-passion for positive 
healthy 
rational/nutritional purpose

And perennial meaning
this old pre-cortical WiseElder right brain
we have anciently learned interdependence
does not believe in autonomous ego-mortality,

Right brain emotive intelligence
is not overly invested in left brain ego's embedded fragmentation
co-arising feelings of righteous predative anger 
and leftist prayers conserving lose/lose fears
of YangGod's universally autonomous climate genocide.

Ego's de-individuation
away from Earth's healthy habitat
rejoining MotherEarth's timeless individulting wombs
reproducing integrity's conjoined co-passioning potential,

ReBecoming as I began
win/win re-entering memories re- and pre-historically souled
unsoiled
inside EarthMother's first pre-cortical dark night

Becoming bicameral felt
effectively co-caused/effective 
neo-cortical ego's individuating day

ReComposing my first great healthy transformational
co-arising in/ex-formational
re-journey
re-membering my first great transitional 
sunrise developmental 
co-passioning light/energy service
courageously multicultural
vulnerably global
and transparently personal.

Premium Member Sunlight Solidarity

When my solitude 
silently stands in sunlight
radiating GoldenRule enlightenment
and rational empowerment
through windows dawning bright,

A sharp shadow line
vertically cuts across my bridge
and brow of smell and seeing senses,

InBetween left within shadow
and right without radiance,
narrow sides of double-bonded Truth,
curious and hidden Beauty.

Right eye clearly articulating
bright prominent sight
dominantly lit up height
for best resonant enlightenment

Is blinded by bright
to not fight
automatic rays deflecting night,

While shadow Left,
not yet overpowered
with Right red-eye blinding punishment,
benighted verbal authority,

BiLaterally
yet integrally knows he she sees
seas 
and seasons dipolar co-arising contrast
best as starkest
never darkest 
win/win economic dawning options
of BothLeft/AndRight gold radiating rain
in droughts known
through beatified non-pain,
bicameral light regained,
empowered feelings unslain

Again
full bicameral stereo polyphonic, 
Radiantly healthy thoughts
not verbally sustained
without dark ultra winnings 
winging out and in reimaged, full
golden silent solidarity
mountain-rivered,
ego-system eco-quivered,

Sight and sound delivered
from and toward Earth 
compassion soul committed bright
ZeroZone of full 
new partial shadows
in rememory light
undeliverable solitude
in health safe night

When my ego-secrets
silently stand in sunlight
radiating GoldenRule enlightenment
rational empowerment
through this window 
just now dawning bright.

Premium Member Paternal Storms

To Husserl's phenomena,
enchanting and disenchanting
healthy and pathological
and all colors in-between,
We might remedially add relationships,
cooperative and competitive
and all hues and cries in-between

To play our LeftEgo with Right Sacred EcoTribe
DNA-enscribing
Wins for convex phenomena
and Wins for concave ecstatic relationships,
Win/Lose in-between wu wei,
and Lose/Lose
not not
dualdark double-phenomenology
inside/outside polynomially irrational
pathological climate trends
anti-enticing,
total rational systemic collapse.

I relate
and can't relate
therefore I think,
become ego identified,
cooperatively Left with Right
and competitively Left or Right,
inductively Left/Right double-binding veto empowered
and deductively,
LeftPrivilege over Right,
patriarchally elite
in a ZeroSum
competition-rooted internal/external culture

Such as capitalism, for economic and ecological ZeroZone example,
a Win/Lose ZeroSum Game
suboptimizing Christ's call to universal love
neighbors,
extended families,
Win/Win relationships,
enchanting ecological/theological phenomena,
nature/spirit ultra-violet nonviolently cooperative means
and wu ways
narrow as a double-binding eye
wide as a WiseElder multicultural phenomenological
biological
ethological
psychological
neurological
music-ological
permacultural voice

Eternal Yang taurus
Yin torus eternity iconic structures
within timeless ego-
eco-
consciousness

Of Husserl's phenomena
with messianic humane/divine co-relationality
choreography,
sacrament,
actively restoring liturgy of everyday light seasons
for optimizing discontinuous secular Left
and continuous sacred Right

WinWin healthy games,
WinLose in-between HereSpace with not-yet-NowTime,
LoseLose not-ego/not-eco
double-binding great warm,
wet,
wealthy climate Loss

Crisis before a nearly inevitable
systemic revolutionary change
in paternalistic RightWing weather.


Premium Member Hate Or Love, Your Choice

My fingers smashed on the piano’s keyboard.
Let her go.  Who needed her?
The notes from the piano trembled with anger.
Was I blind?
Like meteors that smashed into each other,
Simply attracted by gravity,
Merely finding themselves on the same trajectory.

Is that how we fought?
Is hate our gravitational force?
Do we meet by chance
In the vast expanse of the universe?
Or because we were supposed to be rational,
We searched each other,
Just for revenge, for a fleeting moment of hate?

Yet hate was so short lived,
No satisfaction came with it,
Merely the useless thought
That someone had achieved some supremacy.
Were we blind?
Hate can never have the upper hand.
For after a while we search and find
The void of a sterile life.

The door opened and she came for a hug.
I felt elated.  Our love took the upper hand.
The notes from the piano turned soft.
It is now a sweet sonata of a love lullaby.

Premium Member Love and War

How does one define the word love
There are many degrees to this passion
There's love of a job, a love of a sport
Even love of an exciting new fashion

The way I describe love is very simple
It's the feeling of hearts intertwined
The bonding of souls in loving harmony
There's nothing like love in it's prime

Forever, love's been the driving force
The reason why wars have been fought
Rational thinking doesn't come into play
Levelheadedness isn't given a thought

It's gung-ho ahead, straight for the prize
Enthusiastic, eager and unthinking
All else is secondary occupying our minds
Tight in love's grasp we start sinking

There's no hope now, it's much too late
You've succumbed to that age old game
Of chasing her till she captures you
For centuries the game's been the same

Premium Member Closer To Animals

The enemies talk, and receive applause
Their repertoire stays the same
Only it’s getting a little bit worse
A step shorter towards the end game
The funny thing is that all understand
We get closer to animals the humans wiped out
The UN may express the best worry they can
May organize the grand meeting about 
But it’s obvious, not only to the masterminds
That the point of so called no return
Has already been passed, and no one could find
The alternate route to take on 
We are undergoing involution
For quite some time, since the World War 1
And actually, it didn’t end with solution
That exactly states what was won 
No rational reason explains how on earth
We’ve come to this state of affairs 
Was it written in genes since the first man’s birth?
I’ve no clue, I guess nobody cares.

Subsets of Numbers

Natural numbers, big or small
Include no zero among them all
Including numbers 123
Excluding fractions, as you can see

Whole numbers are one step up
Add a zero, and add them up
To get a simple 0 1 2
There is almost nothing new

Integers now are number three
As negative as numbers can be
Like -1 , or -93
But spanning to infinity

Rational covers all before
Add decimals and you’re near the door
With fractions now, you’re almost done
8.3, 9 over 1

Real numbers are the final step
With any number you could think up
Excluding that which don’t exist
Now go away, I need my rest

Escape

Loom and doom escapes the rational mind..
Darkness oozes ..
A menace to itself
A fearful mind self destructs
As fear separates itself from logical thinking..
It creates a world of its own..

Where there lies hopelessness
Chaotic events unfold..
Seen through the eyes of fear
Lying on a bed of needles
Pricked by a thorn of a rose
Where rose petals no longer have a scent

When one escapes..
One must return to love
Wipe the tears of anguish
To replace them with tears of joy..

Shackles and chains unlocked 
Freedom gained ..
Burden lifted
Take a breath of fresh air..
Breathe the breath of life..
As the heart is opened to receive love..
A threshold of light illuminates..
Embraced you are..
Held in the loving arms of Divinity..
Lifted you are
Carried by the Divine..
