Today Is DifferentToday is assiduously
religiously different,
as I review our local RiverEast News.
Every week
Mike Thompson writes a solid Editorial
in a compelling voice.

my hearty sacred
happy secular "Amen!"
Our nearly fearless Editor and Chief
calls for political "ACCOUNTABILITY!"

Healthy Politics, and Sex, and ReligionI hope I know what is healthy sex,
in an experiential kind of way,
and a trans-biblical swell known sway,
and I can imagine a world with healthier,
more cooperative, politically empowering days,
but I am clueless about healthy religion,
which...

Misguided MeditationsI am sorry
about my judgmental,
sadly disdainful,
tone
in earlier messages.
Even worse,
I remain embarrassed
for spreading it out
for key staff
and leaders
to well-positioned see
and hear
and feel,
touched by wounded toxicity.
My training
and experience
includes victimized by homophobia
and healing through community mediation.
Within this...

Red and Blue Estrangered FamiliesDear Siblings Three,
I was reading a story
in which some siblings became estranged
after their parents died,
while others moved toward greater solidarity.
This is a variation on a diaspora story.
But, here growing physical distance
is seen more as a...

Ending In a Deadly Minor KeySo here's my question for this dawning day,
like a WinWin ruminating message in a bottle
floating through a LoseLose climate sea
felt still foggy from last night,
some mysterious how now;
One of many
health related strategic WinLose issues
tuning out...

Manic Depressive ClimatesDepression is like dying
without hope this process will end well,
without remediation
at least not for my closely held ego-identity,
and despair
this turning inward
creates a cocoon by avoiding outward.
Focal awareness of ego mortality,
immanent and emanant,
eminent,
turns inward,
returns...

Regenerate IntelligenceI often fail to notice
nuanced distinctions
between ethics of punishment,
retribution, on right hand
and boycott,
shunning revenge, on my left;
Between reigning down further abuse
and more quietly raining temporary neglect,
social
economic
political distancing.
Punishment is a tool
for privileged narcissists,
win/lose competitors,
colonizers,
for fake-righteously...

Empowering PassionIn passionate psychology,
powers of proactive compassion
are generally thought of in personal
and familial
interdependently relational
perspectives.
In political science,
large-scale powers for proactive compassion
resist reactive competition to merely overpower the opposition,
preferring pro-active energy for liberal love
constrains against investments in conserving...

Conspiring MusesI've heard about non-violent communication
but wasn't deeply listening.
It didn't seem to have much of a plot,
a lack of creative tension,
drawing my full survivalist attention.
So this is probably all wrong
that I'm not owning my conspiring dissonant...

Treasuring the EducatorA former friend of mine
tricked me into becoming
something I am not
The volunteer President
of our condo association,
a position I clearly cannot afford
midst trifling disassociations.

of arguing about next year's budget
which typically continues
until...

The Formidable Gambit
"The Formidable Gambit"
Silence
calculated and distinct
conspiring with rules
plays within the
confined squares
of a strict and
ruthless mind
preying on all moves
untraceable
unpredictable
irretrievable
in the opening move
the long-legged fly
is caught in the web
silvery and slippery
life remains...

Class of 1970When I was in my Michigan high school
I found something both promising
and sacred,
portentous with rural, yet also urbane, PositivEnergy,
in and among our graduating classes
of 1970.
Ending with mindful roundness
of Zero.
Preceded by almost octave fullness
of sacred potentiating...
