Forgiveness Political Verse Poems

When personal narcissism
and tribal autism
choose our words

We soon find 
that no...

Probably few of us
have capacity
to see ourselves
as both Angel

of demonizing
and punishing ourselves
for sins of the past
extending into our present
festering
unresolved...

Not so dear DT:

and self,

Forgiveness,
like trust,

In complicated relationships,
and complex story telling
with regeneratively developing
and degeneratively undeveloping characters,

Personalities with powers to inflict harmful
punishment,
and healing

Neglect
and abuse
or co-investment
and solidarity,

self-blaming

Begin in our shared multiculturing
co-empathic nature
uncomfortable with win/lose historic

Instant individual redemption
from predative enculturation
is overly spiritualized,
under naturalized,
rightwing evangelical dogma
more likely found in empire-building
