Long Reconsidering Poems

Today is assiduously
religiously different,
as I review our local RiverEast News.

Every week
Mike Thompson writes a solid Editorial
in a compelling voice.
I expect to only add
my hearty sacred
happy secular "Amen!"

Our nearly fearless Editor and Chief
calls for political "ACCOUNTABILITY!"

This brisk, sunny March morning, I return from delivering my son to his adult daycare van.  

Upon opening The Norwich Times, I delight to read the new Center for Safe Futures "will be taking...

BiPolarity
has been largely ignored
polarization,

Linear and stagnant hierarchies
peaking in well-capitalized severance
and sterile self-satiation

Use you
then leave you
win/lose planning
and worldview design
by non-feminists

Uninspired by EarthTribe's co-arising,
Both/And reconsidering
depolarizing
dipolarization

Bruised blue traumatic,
and green grown therapeutic
sides of each red coin's
capitalization

Of Left hemisphere's newer
monotheistic...

That first black and white
grainy
strangely fluid
floating
flat screen view
of the early developing individual
inside EarthMother's womb

Reminds me
of that first
full-spectrum green and blue
strangely white cloudy
moistly floating
slowly revolving
flat screen view
of home planet
still developing
evolving
revolving Earth.

A LeftBrain dominant individual worldview
from a...

We have the more authoritative
orthodox
scriptural GoldenRule view,
unrealistically presented by matriarchal Holy Spirits
of AnimaMundi:
Do unto others
as you would have others
do unto EarthTribe cooperative resident you.

Then we have the more shadow side,
not quite so golden,
more irresponsible WinLose...

What is our highest good
as parents,
grandparents,
children of WiseElder mentors,
mountains and valleys,
sun and moon,
planets and plants,
clouds and rivers,
trees and toads,
eagles and dragonflies,
and occasionally parents.

How do we kindly,
with integrity,
invite ourselves
our families
our tribes
and communities
toward more resilient polycultural health,
restoring...

Why do Presidents
work out better
safer
healthier
when they insist on remaining
persist in reclaiming
active grassrooted residents?

Cooperative property administration health values
are rooted 
in eco-cooperative wealth

PolyCultural Values
from regeneratively safe experience
with resilient
and resonant,
CoPassionate Left/Right
West/East 
Capital/EmBodied
Ego/EcoSystemic
bicamerally therapeutic
polyvagal EarthTribe 
neurosystemic balance

PRECIOUS DIALOGUE IN THE WOODS
 
I can hear you.
But are you listening?
I look in your eyes and they're no longer glistening.
I want you on my team.
But so does he.
Instead of you and I why can't...

Once I felt the patent feeling acutely too,
A spark within, a flame anew,
Wouldn't deter the impetus will that took me in,
A journey's start, with heart and kin.

Once I was in love in those times of...

Sometimes I feel like I will implode because I can't say all the things I wish I could to her because we ain't in a relationship.
I steal glances at her and damn is she pretty....

As your wicked fingers crawl onto the tightened metal,
I feel myself loosing control, reminiscing my presence
as if it is the holy lord's forbidden prayer,
That is toxic, yet it shows me the unknown fantasies...
As those pointed...

One of my favorite things about you is your smile
But you rob me of it by trying to keep it hid
By covering it up
By trying to refrain
Just seeing you TRY to refrain cracks me up
Seeing...

The paranoia you caused me triggered a change in my character my personality adapted to certain ways that weren't planned for and when challenged I latched on which created imbalancement with a chain reaction generating...

Love and laughter go together
as do macaroni and cheese.
Like that noble dish of childhood
It’s a combo bound to please.

We laughed until the tears came
at gifted comics of our youth.
The golden age of radio,
it is called...

Today, please join me
in considering this question:

What are your most resilient characteristics
of your own healthy caring system?

And what could this possibly have to do 
with holes and poles,
whole open systems 
and bilateral space/time 
Here/Now dipolarities?

I could be quicker to apologize
and more deeply reconsider
healthy and safe restitution
restoration
restoring right relationship
restorying win/win potential
resolutions

To become more integrally confessional
when I have lacked transparency
hidden by invulnerable
chauvinistic silence

Fearing to offend
on matters not deeply mattering
to me
but almost...

Passé is age.
You have sage.
Never believe that you were not the same in your younger days.
You know you are a savant of reflection.
Mystified are your people of your different directions.

Retro is your perspective.

Fashionably nostalgic is...

Tonight I will write
no profound verse,

nothing negatively terse – 
alternately worse,

I will only, in my reconsidering mind
and multi-chambered, often corrosive heart, 
rehearse my better, positive part; where
I should and could mostly dwell, hearkening to
heaven's angels,...

Nobody has ever won, excelled and thrived
without considering taking a risk once or twice;
why be afraid of destiny and miss out on glory?
I ventured on the wrong path without
wishing upon stars, without tossing a single...

She was a jolly woman in her prime, a beauty
And she had a crush on the man who made her laugh
So thus enamored, she asked him, “Will you marry me? 
She married to the whole...

Give peace a chance, will those of nobility declare
Intelligence of spirit, who could ever compare
Valiantly fighting the evil in the world, unwilling to fail 
Earnestly helping those needy, without ever becoming frail 

Peacefully sacrificing time...

“Sorry, I’m not reconsidering Lucifer’s expulsion.
I’d had him kicked out with obvious revulsion,
The entire saga wearing My Divine Compulsion”
While still felt by My Angels The Celestial Convulsion!
 
And that was the much God had for...

The red tail light of the 737 flashed rhythmically against the dark skyline

It taxied its approach on the runway, everything was set, it all looked fine

She looked out the window across the dark land wondering...

Here's a tale I've told before
From when I was a teen
The subject at the time was sore
For I caused quite a scene!

Had a brand-new bathing suit
My first bikini ever
I figured I looked mighty cute
And that...
