Music Parallelismus Membrorum Poems

Dancing minds
free singing bodies

Dancing bodies
reserve singing minds.

Minds find faith in wealthy 
blue-sky synergy
where bodies have experienced hope
for sacred EarthTribe's 
healthiest green integrity.

Whether we feel we...

At sixteen
People's Bible Church
sent me from rural Michigan farm lands
to Moody Bible Institute
in siren-screaming Chicago

Church fathers assumed,
despite curious evidence to the contrary,
that I was a...

When I entered the City Senior Center
with my Open Mic proposal
to increase resilience
and decrease apartheid dissonance

see no dancing.

The quilting room

We may need a rest left here
right now
said the Muse
to his Warrior
and her Sage.

In compliant spirit,
Sage feels a rest not
not significant
in music's octaved stories

If Thou take not our hands,
and feet,
our bodies
hosting ghostly minds,
our organic inside lives
flowing out emphatic love

We will continue to fail,
to fear,
to feel tired,
retired,
weary,
untreaded,
worn.

When I try...

MusEcology
is like musicology
except music theory
is about how to write
outside
resiliently capturing what is felt
and heard resonantly flowing first
inside

Using a shared

Language System.

While MusEcology
mind sings
and body...

Music
especially sacred music
feels round

Not such clear lines
prescribing desecrating marches
needing to move somewhere
noting something
speaking against someone
in StraightWhite privileged time

Right/Left balancing divas
sometimes sing in resonant rounds,
round
and round

When dancing Earth's tribal rhythms
natural seasons
light and heavy step
steeped nurturing intent
anxiously dark
anticipating bright
natural exotic music
dancing muse content

While singing deep spiritual
reasons
for light and night,
glad and sad...

I feel like I'm trying to sing
slow win/win
in universal C-major
key of resonance
while you are trying to resiliently dance
fast and furious win/lose
in disuniting F-sharp keys
of in-between...

If it's not organic
it's not sexy
and probably not all that funny
either.

If it's up and down bipolar movement
with your arms and legs,
it's Yang male energy,
and potentially...

We have come into this epic time
for survivors of dispassion
to age into sacred communion
we can all share,
monotheist
and atheist
and pantheist
and all non-anthrosupremacists
in-between leftbrain 
snarky opinion leaders
and...

It seems to me,
declared the preacher
to the distracted music Teacher,
that sacred MonoTheism
smugly explains 
and exalts AnthroOwner Privilege
to ordain,
buy and sell
Earth's health-care rights.

It may sound to...

A problem with breath-focused sitting
eyes hooded
closed down sensory receptor meditation,
in my peak omnipotent mindful experience

This inside passive form of seeking resilience
presumes we consistently care
about furthering...

What I appreciate about playing musical chairs

This game is less about sitting around in chairs
and more about the traumatic absence 
of safe secure chairs

And these...

We thrive finding freedom
to speak out
to dance around 
and sacred shout
to sing full-stop gospel
turn'em out

Outside our secluded cells
of dominant evolution
and protagonist predation theories,
desecrating aparta-schisms,
jingoistic decultured...
