Long Recessed Poems

Over the next two evenings after the Council had recessed, Seileach visited each of the Councilman who had voted to release Dyndoeth in an effort to assess their feelings about whether they were inclined to...

He just appeared to me, like wispily curling 
Chimney smoke, 
One grim and early morning in the very midst of 
Decembers briefest days, on the highest slope,
Toiling through my daily round; where, slowly 
Driving up...

"The way I see it,
we're all related."
said my EcoTherapist.

While DNA and RNA include infinite permutation possibilities,
their primal core functions suggest simple bipolar relationships
between who's inside and what's outside,
and who is dominant so the Other recessed,

I think it might be John Rawls
who writes about
thick and thin justice sandwiches.

Thick justice
may be more deeply embedded, richly spread
in regenerative pursuing time,
producing and serving healthy wealth relationships,
often digestively motivated
to achieve nutritional communion goals,

While thinner...

Night! 
It’s around nine thirty 
maybe ten. 

The phone rings. 
The voice is irritating, the words frightening.

Within minutes I’m in a car with my mate. 
Within minutes I arrive at my own ground zero. 
Exit...

Here's my thing.
I wonder if Yin-UnDead,
river of Time's ebbing wave
predicts Yang-Love Health Abundant PowerWith.

No, really,
I think about that,
and I wonder if EcoReligious Universal Messiahs
could also become Bodhisattva Integral-Unitarian Occupiers,
Zero-sacred self-invested/Othering-divested PlaceHolders,
bilaterally stretching thresholds toward health-balanced...

Sonny hid behind the melons 
In a busy Asian marketplace,
Near the plantains and the mangos 
Where the shadows could obscure his face.  
He inhaled the air around him 
And enjoyed the fragrant scent of...

Our first learning experience
of Earth as home
is in our perfectly uniting warm womb,
specifically designed for growing Constitutional Welfare,
healthy development care receiving,
then giving back,
paying forward,
co-investing 
in future sacred wombed learning experiences.

After birth from this matriarchal-bonded and...

Cooped within ancient bodies, this inhabitant 
dwells amongst an elder net 
of crabby, crotchety, curmudgeonly claque 
of old folks, only a portion of population I met
which achey, flaky, kooky motley crue 
disgruntlement fed as peevish...

           In the depths of desolation where death 
is presiding in a smug kind of cocoon of parasite,

The date is twenty six July,nineteen hundred forty five

A hiding place, a warm and darkened room,
A lit doorway, bright against the dark,
Cold against the warmth, a frame for odd
Assorted stranger-forms whose faces loom

As quarrels over (what?) convulse and rend them,
Leering laughter giving in...

You made up your mind to view the world
With different eyes —eyes recessed, eyes inundated with lustre,
Straining to catch every flight of the dancing seasons that hurled

Radicals of PostMillennial Zeroism,
like Fundamental PreMillennial Taoism:

YangMind,
severed from YinBody, 
falsely promises 
unmitigated monopolistic political omniscience
and monotheistic economic omnipotence.

YinBody becomes spiritualized-denatured 
empty womanized
invisibly purged
recessed
depressed
repressed
suppressed
voiceless
powerless,
eco-normatively absent
lacking positive nutritional flow trends,
panentheistically dormant.

Just as Holonic Spirit/Nature abhors vacuums of...

Why is it that every time I look in the mirror,
I see someone different?
I know it’s essentially me on the other side,
but I can’t help but think
that I’ve changed.
What’s even stranger is that
I can’t monitor...

This happens all the time,
The water ripples far from my mind,
I know not, yet know yet again;
the water ripples, is this my sign?

If I walk away, will I sink?
If a wish comes, is it a...

What is the main difference
and primary points of comparison
between being inductively seductive
and becoming deductively submissive?

Between being illusive
and becoming illusioned?

Between being deluded
and becoming delusional?

Between being precluded
and becoming included?

Between being illusory
and becoming luminated?

Between being enlightened
and becoming relit?

Between...

To be fed facile fantasy, a script he held 
Stowed in  boyhood through decades
Recessed where sweating shame dwelled 
Invisible while he achieved accolades

Acknowledgement of God is step number one.
Knowing oneself, strength and weakness won.
Inspection by the soul of thoughts concealed,
A truthful inward view at last, revealed.

Acceptance is a skill that improves one’s life.
Whether for yourself or someone...

Hidden away, deeply recessed,
    From the earliest brain.
Lies the need for survival,
    Only meaning to sustain.

The roots seek to feed,
    And satisfy the desire.
As water flows...

Alone and hungry
left leg aches like a broken peg
in the mugginess of its left slipper.

Not a good day for fixing anything
but the sealed and over salted,
the quickly warmed and spooned

While holding frail roses close to the breast,
I think of a dawn, so perfect and fair,
ardent with sunlight and warm on the crest

Of all vocations calling each of us
perhaps it is this final ecopolitical stage
most arduous.

To reflect with full integrity,

those unfulfilled promise valleys of aptic time
lost to Ego's yangish...

Some say that some gains are not worth the risk,
and that their pursuit causes far too much pain.
They say that some things are better left the same.
They say that if it's not broken, don't fix...
