Premium Member Abolish With Polish

Said the caste abolitionist
to the privileged preservationist

What Earth needs outside
we both feel inside

What people want inside
fills and spills outside

Following polycultural
polypathic
polyamorous
polytheistic Golden Rules
Ways
Means
Golden Ratios.

Caste abolition, 
like anthropocentric constraint,
and unlike narcissistic complaint,
engages transformative potential
to recreate an organic civilization
in which every sacred body
has what is needed
and every polyamorous mind
has what is wanted.

Every neurological system
well-trained
and peace-making empowered
to recognize
and responsibly self-correct
any dissociative dissonant differences
between body nurturing needs
for kind touch
and mind-care wants
for compassionate communication

Spoken
and unspoken,
saged
and mused,
crowned
and rooted,
mountained
and valleyed
FatherSunned
and EarthMothered,
LeftBrained
and RightBodied,
enlightened
and empowering,
polished Win+Win
and abolished Win v Lose.

Premium Member Trilogy of Nonviolence Advocates Rev King Jr Attys Mandela and Gandhi!

The "Trilogy of Non-Violence" advocates peacefully uplift humanity
Humanity is to behold a peaceful way of overcoming the struggle of life.
Life, where all souls are valuable and with love are diminishing hate
Hate! Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. states, "Driven out by the light."
 
Light of the world for humanity to see shining bright, eliminating darkness
Darkness, which Attorney Nelson Mandela survived in gloomy dungeons.
Dungeon of despair, trying to rent his humility, spirit, and soul without relent
Relent, he withstood, overcame with God's grace, seeking peace, not revenge!
 
Revenge develops turmoil in humanity's mind and soul—"So agonizing!"
Agonizing the spirit to do ill will toward others without peace—Violence!
Violence Attorney Mahama Gandhi pronounced is inferior to non-violence
Non-violence is strength emanating from an indomitable will of humanity.
 
Humanity diligently erased images of the beast, displaying its ugly appearance,
Rev. Dr. King, Jr. Attorneys Mandela and Gandhi defeating such ugliness!

Premium Member Rightmindfulness Activities

I wonder...

If RightWing Activists
are, thereby,
actively against
Allies of a healthy
cooperative
co-invested
compassionate democracy.

If RightMind disempowered pessimists
lack Win/Win enlightened grace
to feel unconditional warm economies
of politically organic love
in sacred time and space.

If RightHand monotheistic powers
could ever learn
from divine experience
to become more bicamerally
GreenLiberal/RedConservational
co-ecstatic

If Left/Right circling spectral lights
of win/win thriving Egos 
worshipping our sacred shared 
sexual EcoSystems
become, thereby,
compassionate peace-thriving 
intrapersonal repairs
supporting resilient interpersonal partnerships,
resonant teams,
and 7-regeneration sustainable,
multisensory health and safety
communions
unions,
transcendently co-empathic

As when GreenNoise Wonder
grows in nonverbal compassion,
integrity of sacred 
Red Holesome 
inviting robust Awe.


Premium Member Sexier Santa Passions

Community trauma prevention
sounds not so sexy
to absent-minded mayors
and perennial kleptocratic players

And growing a regenerative Learning Community
isn't really ecojust about restoring
healthy democratic justice
for a somewhat sexier
and robust multicultural environment.

Both of these Win/Win Game Theory
trauma-informed learning theory applications
remain paternally erectile
mountainously synergetic
strength functions
of community YangWoke experience

And valleyed ecofeminist
indigenously EcoMatrimonial Wise
for growing integrity's flow
of nonverbal ecstasy
nonviolently yin
peak rebirthing experience
polycultural wealth wombed learning
co-passionate communionation

Sacred root chakra souled
and yet creolizing carnal
as rich 
dark
warm
wet
erotically fertile 
whole enlightened therapeutic day
and holonic nighttime soil

For cooperatively slow-growing
emergent community trauma prevention

Which may resound 
more climate holiday sexy
even to absent-minded elitist mayors
and perennially kleptocratic 
hopelessly straight white male
LeftBrain ego-narcissistic 
phat but not-so-jolly players.

Premium Member When Profound Feels Sacred

My youngest
of three AfricanAmerican adopted sons
has profound nonwhite
nonstraight
nonverbal cerebral palsy.

Profound
in at least not being privileged
or victimized
by internal LeftBrain dominance,
violent micro-aggressions,
zero-sum competitive thinking

Either positively True and Good
or negatively False and Bad,
laughable
or humorless

Sacred indigenous consciousness
feels more Right-Elder brainstem
bodymind nondualistic synergy
friendly energy
which is my son's political blessing
and his capital secularizing
segregating
colonizing
economic disabled curse.

Youngest son communes
with music
more fluidly co-empathic
than linguistic communications

He touches
and sings
and chants
through echoing shouts
and exclamatory barks,
short nonphonetic phrases,
lip smacking,
and belly laughs.

When he cries,
which is seldom,
he cries silently

No vocal cords

Profound inhaling wet gasps
and exhaling sad sacred shakes.

He laughs unconditionally
from his root chakra 
warm unguarded soul
and bicamerally cries
from his buddha
co-empathic eyes.

Premium Member Integrity's Health Potential

If to be
is to communicate

Perhaps
to be healthy
is to communicate
with deep listening
and nonviolent speaking 
regenerative integrity

Both secular and sacred
natural and spiritual
multi-paradigmatically scientific 
and inter-religiously philosophical
universal truths and unitarian trust
in bicamerally balanced sacred beauty

Faithful to mind and loving with body
ego and ecosystemic
rational-compassionate
Either/Or-Both/And
bipartisan 
Taoist
NonDualist 

Not-Not Zeroist 
strength/flow
liberally loving/conserving caution
full/empty
space/time 
bilateral-fractal

Bicameral-dialectic 
mind/body redevelopment
within nutritional incoming
and fertile outgoing 
organically active balance.


Paid For Words

I
She was a prophetess
Dealing with vision, words 
Then came political correctness
Some tongues are incarcerated

II
Have you paid (absurd)
For your every word
Some want you "wrong"
Others say, "Go along"

III
Dr. King used diction
Minus hate, violent action
So did Diedrich Bonhoeffer
What would you offer?

Premium Member Nonviolent Spaces

Where all humane souls repent
of contempt
for our EgoSelf
against our EcoOthers

And celebrate,
or at least commend,
express gratitude for,
our inner enlightened
and empowered
co-passionate communication,
dialogue,
discernment

Bilaterally
and multiculturally informed
by
of
and for
global climate health
and polycultural wealth 
of resolving thought 
resonant wellness-felt 
restoring bipartisan prosperous peace.

Premium Member When Resonant

My spiritual vulnerability
to feel persuaded
and powers to persuade
emerge curiously informed
by Others speaking suggestions
and my own inside power digestions
not yet said out loud,
uproarious

Yet co-arising
from life's multi-generational crowd
EarthDay choir
cyber cloud
singing and dancing every day
for Earth's integral potential,
sacramental organic health
reproducing GREEN capitalized wealth,
fabulously non fatuous

inside
as outside
nuturingly nutritious

above 
as below
delightfully delicious

Suggestions that land
sync
resonate
with percussive persuasion,
efficiently efficacious.

Like
"Maybe you need appreciation
for who you are
already?"
non vindictively victorious

Maybe I want
more integrity,
synergy,
positive neurosystemic
organic
healthy
sacred holonic energy?
non glamorously glorious.

Nonviolence : An Instrument For Peace

Mysterious world with full of confusion, 
Every body follows their own intuition, 
Where truth faces hard confrontation, 
The lie has got established authorisation, 
A race to achieve everlasting position, 
But it is a script of short duration., 
Never question the truth and its incarnation, 
Oppose lies with all possible coordination, 
Avoid every form of violence and its immitation, 
Direct all your abilities for a purification, 
Never go against this amazing creation, 
Nonviolence must be a universal religion, 
Send violence to a permanent vacation, 
Do the necessities in blank situation, 
Then you acheive a glory of no attenuation, 
And soul becomes eligible for salvation.

Premium Member Meaning Invites Purpose

We expect to find
and ecologically pursue
performing possessive behaviors,
speaking with LeftBrain dominant purpose
in our individualized ego lives.

We invite,
theologically hope for,
and faithfully search out
and in to fulfill,
nonviolently provide
peaceful purpose
to protect interdependent
intersectional
meaningful relationships
in Earth's web
of sacred compassion.

Premium Member Oh Sweet Mystery

Said Earth's Oceanic Therapist
to Heaven's Meditation Master,

Silent,
aparting meditation
naturally exhales
toward inhaling wet green co-passion
dipolar communions
following appositive surfing inquisitions 
of courageously resilient undercurrents 
turbulantly co-arising curiosity.

Wanting,
needing,
craving an orgiastic climax
bilateral
dipolar warm and welcome baptizing

Without first give and taking turns
active working,
listening and speaking
nonviolent foreplay 
co-passioning cooperative intent,

Is like going to church,
singing Bach's Alleluia Chorus
before getting back into our aparting cars
and trucks,
trains and planes,
ready for another exhaustive
extractive
sexless secular week
of win/lose devolutionary 
impotent weakness,

Sang Earth's sex therapist
to Heaven's green communion liturgist.

Premium Member Paradise Connections

The pursuit of erotic
exotic climaxing paradise
is not neurotic
about biological perfection

And almost entirely resilient
and resonant impressions
through sensory neurological connections:

Feeling touch
Smelling taste
Sighting sound
******** directions,
cooperative indiscretions.

Premium Member Living Nonviolence

But the tenants seized the servants and one of them they beat, another they killed, and third they stoned. Matthew 21:35

How violently the tenants acted
Besides beating
Stoning and killing his servants
They also killed the owner’s son

This parable prefigures the brutal death of Jesus
But long before being killed by a barbaric crucifixion
Jesus felt the effects of human violence and harsh rejection
He received a hostile threats

Sarcastic barbs
 and verbal taunts from those who supposed Him
He experienced the unnerving outcome of people whose fear turned on Him
Chased Him out of town

And yet
 Jesus did not respond with similar violence
He walk His talk
Not only preaching non violence

 but living it
 When Peter sliced off a man’s ear in order to protect him
 Jesus insisted the disciple put his sword away
 Jesus then healed the man’s ear

I am reminded that too
must avoid revenge
 If follow Jesus
 I will ease desiring harm to come to those who insist on being an enemy

Premium Member Humanity Coarises Destiny

Who would become so fundamentally foolish
to separate a strong dancer
from her flowing dance?

The secular singer
from his sacred song?

Mountainous storytellers
from our rivered story?

Felt humane communion
from our most nakedly divine communications?

Spirited habits
dispirited from Earth's natural habitats?

Evangelical legends
from love's integrity,
passion's timeless curiosity?
