Premium MemberAlien Invasion

Fear of the Outsider, the interloper, the alien
Is as old as humanity itself.
Xenophobia doesn’t just apply to someone foreign 
And “not like us”,
It applies to anyone who may threaten 
Our way of life, the status quo, the norm
And way “it’s always been.”
From local bar to climbing crag, surfing beach, 
Ghetto corner, and Union shop floor,
The locals, sometimes multigenerational deep,
Tend to claim their turf
With the worst of human qualities;
Fear and loathing
Sublimated into snide ostracism, 
Backstabbing gossip and withering looks
If not fully expressed with seething hate 
Slander, bullying and assault.
Meanwhile life goes on for the Xeno
Head down, eyes averted, pathways diverted,
While in their heart
They recognize the love their haters have
For their cherished way of life and ground
Is not exclusive
And no different from their own.

Premium MemberSexual Situations

I was about to check out a new detective drama
and paused
however briefly
when I noticed a consumer warning
"Sexual Situations"

Which I find confusing.

Everyday
as long as I continue to wake up
however partially
I am not gender impartial

I awake into my
Sexual Situation

I live in a sexual body
with a neuro-sensory communicating
communing pheromonic mind
filled with multigenerational memories
and multicultural images

Whether conscious or not,
if you can read
and understand this,
and even if you couldn't,
you too live
in a sexual situation
among a sexual species.

So, I'm wondering
when will I read a consumer warning
"No Sexual Situations"

No drama

No detective work
or play

No plot

No sensory interest

Better off
to go take a wild
wet
warm
dreamy
creamy nap

Than be the sap
who legislates
no social communication benefits
from speaking compassionately together
about our diverse sexual situations.

Premium MemberWhat It's All About

I did not expect
to sing
"What's It All About,
Alfie?"
with as much embarrassing 60s passion
as I did
in my urgent
pre-traumatic midlife
self-critical 30s.

I thought, 
by now,
I would resiliently remain swimming,
singing while dancing,
swirling in abundant win/win
economic ecologies
of deep polycultural meaning
and wide multigenerational 
bipartisan wisdom

And not so much stomping
and storming
to merely win/lose survive
each anthro-supremacist competition
against MotherEarth

RightBrain disenabling
openly defying golden eco-democratic health 
systemic win/win game
optimization rules

Because of LeftBrain supremacist confusion
about what MeWe bicameral balance
is all co-passionately about

EarthTribe secular LeftBrain health
is also RightBrain divinely endowed 
safe anthro-wealth

Panentheistically felt
indigenously green cooperative
ecotherapeutic WholeEarth 
neurosystemic wisdom

CoInvested communion,
reconnecting,
Earth healing
anthro-compassionate
resonant
bicameral
bipartisan resilience

Which seems to be what loving 
enlightened
empowering

Democratic health
of wealth
is all about.

Premium MemberLove's Vulnerable Pedestrian

Taoists recognize
all outside exposed inside egos
feel watched
when walking through
a new or, some stressed times,
even a long familiar
housed human eco-habitat

But some of us feel marginal,
suspected,
anxious about being judged
and shamed
and blamed
for assumed insufficiencies
at aggressively playing monoculturing win/lose
Straight 
WesternWhite 
Patriarchal 
eco-political games

And sometimes we feel anticipation,
privileged multicultural excitement
and active hope

That the multigenerational family
moving in next door
will have kids our win/win needy age

Still health/wealth co-empathic
feeling ego/ecosystemic healing memories

Of past 
RedYang/GreenYintegrity walking
waking small revolutionary 
repurposing
transportive
transcendent communion experiences

ReStorying Earth's polyculturing just Ways,
PolyPathic Means,
CoMediations of health-felt cooperative experience

In Ego/Eco-Pedestrian NonZero Zones
of active co-mediation,
win/win strategic and healing game designers
bilaterally co-passioned,
walking along 1/0 binomial
double-binary
boundaries 

Anticipating ego/eco-systemic
compassionately progressing
communions.

Premium MemberPolynomial Earthpassion

Restoring EarthJustice
is our sole soul-redemptive passion

Conveyed without win/lose competitive
capital-driven transactions,
exchanges,
disassociations,
cognitive/affective dissonance

Given over to cooperative co-investments
of compassionate win/win communication,
verbal and non-verbal,
spoken and listened-for
watched-for
incarnated
and reincarnated globally

Committed blue/green Interdependent
PostMillennial 
Contextual 
WholeEarth-Systemic Consciousness

Rooted in multigenerational 
contextual intelligence multicultural
left/right-hemispheric tipping points
win/win co-arising dipolar
nature/spirit enthymematic,
polyvagally health systemic,
wealth resilient polypathic,
fractal double-binary audio-optic,
passionate communion polyphonic, 
EarthPeace
ultra-nonviolent harmonic.

Premium MemberDominating Capitals

Competitive capitalism
is about dominance,
which increases separation,
space between Winner haves,
and Loser have-nots

Degenerating into polarized views
more culturally dominant
than old-school cooperative middle
in-between
socio-economic median disappearances

Away from civically active democratic imagination,
focus,
functionally experiential frames
favoring cooperative democracy
over capital plutocracy.

Democracy is about win/win bicameral consensus
which grows integrity
between co-investing Haves
and HaveNots,
depolarizes our EitherHave/OrNotHave 
eco-politically valued lives

Mediating in-between re-membering,
reweaving multigenerational cooperative
matriarchal empowering history
of mutually enlightening democratic health care

Through cooperative ownership
stewardship
citizenship
home and meal management
integrity of co-responsive thought and feelings,
polycultural communication
and multicultural energy systems

Refracting integral re-MEMEory
left-hemisphere empowering
right-hemisphere energetic win/win
neurological waves of win/lose healing 
win/win co-investing light.

Premium MemberUngodly Control Issues

Have you seen,
or even felt,
an historical coincidence
between monotheism
and patriarchal theism
and competitive ChosenPeople
monoculturing control issues?

Have you heard
resonant compassioned languages
polyculturing herstoric redevelopment,
ego/polytheistic
nondualistic integral multi-regenerational experience
in-between cooperative ecomatriarchal green theists
and competitive multicultural EarthTribe Circles
thrivalist Ecological Interdependent Spirals
co-empowering multigenerational ReCycles
within co-operative
ego/eco-empowering
Left/Right-Economic Winging
singing bicameral
enlightening secular/sacred bipartisan
co-governance

And Win/Win co-investment
in sublimely divinely competitive
yet playful teams
and tribes
and local community opportunities
to avoid win/lose survivalist
patristic devolutionary risks

By embracing win/win thrivalist
ecofeminist revolutionary opportunities
to polyculturally embrace compassion
when we are at high pandemic 
rabid fear and anger frisk.

Premium MemberCoempathic Climax

Could what we believe
is our neurological humane nature,
growing up
and cooperatively out
from LoseMe/LoseWe depressions
about ourselves
and our subculturally dynamic environments,
toward WinMe/LoseWe capitalistic patriarchalism,
toward WinMe/WinWe nurturing co-empathic communication,

Also feel
as if theologically new ancient redblooded spiritual
flowing up
and cooperatively out
ecological green/blue energy
growing from retributive injustice guilt and shame
toward WinEgo/WinEco absorbing compassion,
ego/eco-political EarthTribe healing
healthy nature of wealthy spirituality?

Could what we believe
is our positive/negative multi-regenerational
psychological internal nature

Have grown from
our ecological prime EarthMother Attachment,
flowing divine ZeroSum individuating energy
growing from discontinuous detached WinMe/LoseWe
post-partum dark experience
toward Win/Win eco-political healing
green new deal healthy
internal/external nature

Of wealthy holistic healing
health/wealth multicultural
multigenerational
multi-pathic
polyphonic
meta-euphoric experience?

Premium MemberWhat Changes For Us

What changes for you
when God
becomes a synonym for warm
and living
regenerative Earth?

What changes for you
if God the Son
becomes God the SunLight
and Goddess MoonLight
of seasons
creating robust
resonant
resilient
rich nutritionally complex reasons?

What changes for you
as the HolySpirit
becomes our multigenerational egosystems
composing
re-creating
reweaving
a global cooperative EcoSystem
holonic
integral
multicultural
synergetic
intersectionally connected
multi-paradigmatic
polypathic metaphonic?

If you are a polytheistic Buddhist
or Taoist Ecologist,
perhaps you are already Left with Right
bicamerally
bilaterally
binomially compassionately wired this way.

But, if you are western
left hemisphere
male dominant
nonbinary-prejudiced
and/or privileged capitalist
patriarchal 
trinitarian violently revolutionary,
not so much ecofeminist spiraling restorative evolutionary,
then you might notice a win/win change,
more freedom,
less win/lose fear
anger
anxiety about alien Other's hate speech,
DemonicOther's over-investment in extracting health resources
from and of and for
with and in and on
wealthy Sacred Earth.

Premium MemberA Dream Imagined By Mlk

I hail here from the church with the flags -
Representation of a multicultural congregation,
                A piece of heaven, heartbeat
                      of light and dark faces.
We praise in harmony with our Creator and angels,
In communion as we are meant to be, 
                                 multigenerational too.
We gather together loving one another, singing His songs,
Instructed in godliness every week and on our own
At home we bond with the Lord our God,
               on our knees,
Hands spread wide, and meditate on God’s holy Word.
We share in sorrow and pain
        with our fellow man
Along with joy and happiness
         at each one’s gain.
My favorite part, I listen with a tear’s sheen and with a smile
               Let freedom ring, a dream come true.
                          God’s wings spread wide.
                                      Heaven sighs.

Premium MemberHealthy Attitude

I suspect what most of us want from our families
and communities
has something to do with living as healthy as possible
for as long as possible,
sustainably,
not just through our own lifetimes
but throughout multigenerational lifelines
from past through future
health regenerators
of nutritional wealth maintainability.

These are families
and communities
breeding loyalty
and gratitude,
positive attitude
although our local Boards of Education
(and don't even think about federal departments 
of competitive miseducation)
seem to not so much cooperatively
and economically
and ecologically
think this through together
as ways and means
for deep mutual gratitude learning,
listening,
speaking and feeling with Earth honoring integrity,
whether you discover this as sacred ecology
or merely secular cooperative economic matriarchal history,
depends on whether you go to Religious High
or Secular Humanist Public High
and deep 
and widely grateful
for public patriotic
and domestic sacred matriotic
learning,
healing,
ego with eco-integrity
for Left with Right mutual gratitude,
healthy attitude.

Premium MemberClassism

Many U.S. citizens
deny that democratic civility and classism can,
and often do,
co-exist.

These tend to be
those who also deny
the multigenerational inheritance of enslaving racism
in defense of egalitarian beliefs
about dignity and indignities of human life,
where some have access to personal and habitat and economic health
by right,
while others,
often born multigenerationally poor,
have yet to earn their equal health care receiving rights
until they have paid their economic care-giving dues
for another decade or generation
or two
or three
or more,
who knows?

So good to know
we live in a culture
without classism,
and certainly without racism.

We just think,
using that term loosely,
that everybody should live equally 
separately
as things have always been since,
well...
back to the days of slavery and Kings,
the way God originally ordained,
after the Paradise Forest of Eden,
of course,
which is all our own damned Original Sin fault.

Nodoby would want to go all the way back 
to that radical absence of classism
and racism
ReGenerative Creation Story.

Or,
maybe we would?
perhaps we could?
possibility we multiculturally should?

Premium MemberAbsorbing Outcomes

Is Permaculturally Intelligent Design
for PolyPathic Outcomes
about anything more than noticing
and hunting and gathering
and then nutritionally decomposing
our optimal (0)-Core Abundance?

i suppose it depends
whether you are consuming a multigenerational creole stew
or producing a polyculturally sef-regenerating landscape.

What if I wanted to consume my stew
while co-mentoring our abundantly nutritious well-being landscape?

isn't that more of a healthy wealth climate opportunity?

Perhaps it depends
whether your LeftBrain deductively thinks in visual landscapes
and our RightBrain strains to cooperatively hear
and zing with robust spicy creole climate-healthy stews.
