Be of Good, Compassionate CourageDandelions…
They flutter, now I see
Fiery lions…
They're dancing with me
Sunlight…
Come out and shine down
Moonlight…
Shun out my darkened frown
I am the infinitesimal stars in the tranquil, terrestrial night
I am the scars minutes before the sunlit dawn...

Grand Mother Eartha's DreamMy husband and I always enjoy visiting
GrandMother Eartha
on Mother's Day
She often shares
last night's dreams,
which too often follow rather disturbing peak experience themes
Because,

or maybe not because,
how would I know?
Dreams about Her Straight White AlphaMale trauma

Pequot River Land TrustOnce,
or twice,
maybe thrice,
surely not
not fractal
A clan of crazy ecofeminists
conspired within an 88 unit residential castle
in their historically converted
sometimes hysterically clueless condo
colonial-red predative brick
badly bald aging building
With a sometimes soggy south walled school,

Healing Systemic TraumaCan you make any sense of
systemic racism?
No more common sense than
too much patriarchalism--
all leftbrain-rightwing dominant things
oppressing sacred Earth's
polycultural win/win systems
promoting resiliently wealthy
resonant synergetic health
Care given
as received
in fruitful wombs,
like apple cores in transition
from refuse
toward rebirth
Maybe an...

Healthy Caring SystemsToo many times sadly
too seldom gladly
I must learn to trust
Earth's future more
Both Father Sun's timeless
rounds of enlightenment
and Mother Earth's
codependent rhythms

soulful soil
and surfing seas
And this trusting more
impels healing trauma's lessons,

Burning LogsEach flame
elegantly weaves in waves

Each flame
unique in point of origin below
as ubiquitously flickering fading destinations above.

On Monday

Why LifeWhy does dawn dress robust morning,
while dusk undresses sight?
Each dawn incarnates another Earth Day
a lifetime of Easter mornings
redeeming nocturnal sight's revolution,
another therapeutic day of gift-it-forward light,
some longer,
some shorter
before naked covered night.
Why life?
To uncover...

Earthy EmpathyYou've heard that self-unfulfilling prophecy?
"I love humanity--
it's just people I can't stand."
I love healthy humanity--
it's just uppity and/or snooty people I can't stand
I love cooperative humanity--
it's just overly-competitive individuals I can't stand.

evolves toward more polycultural communication,
