Paying To Play

Imagine
if you would be so kind,
join me
in striving to become 
less blind

Brilliant God says:
Give to your oppressively militarized government
weaponized suppressive
defensively repressive
straight white monotheistic privilege
paid for in tax advantages

And so
it was nationalistically done

Every fall
all co-invested residents send in their conservative
or liberal
or bipartisan dollars
to empower Ceasar's congress
to listen to both Red Universal Gods 
and Green Unitarian Goddesses

Recreating our reformed
Vote to play Liberally
and/or Conservatively
with a cash enfranchised system.

I remain free
to conserve our capitalized
militarized
corporate win/lose 
chronically competitive
neurosystemically toxic
cash extractive 
unhealthy
anxious accountability
uncaring 
capital investment system
of world trauma-triggering violence,
monoculturing abuse,
socio-emotional passion/pleasure repressed,
lose/lose madly impressed
win/lose depressed
neglect of universal health
and safe-unitarian wealth care.

My Dad's evangelical god
was the Red Defense SunGod
serving up capitalized weapon votes
allotted to fund militarized unease,
violence and threat,
physical and emotional imprisonment,
retributive justice,
economic marginalization
and evangelical matricide

Privatizing domestic passions
and secularizing polycultural pleasures
degenerating unhealthy
uncaring
dis-educational 
politically chaotic systems
of globally anxious disempowerment

Ignoring GreenBrain 
nonverbally nondominant
nonbinary
nondualistic
nonviolent
anxiously neglected by RedBrain
while relentlessly pursuing
HellFire on decimated Earth
bedeviled by AnthroSupremacism's
right to pay to play
with the image of monotheistic
StraightWhitePaternalistic 
true enlightenment only for
dispassionate SunGod worshipers
of orthodox Bible interpretation theories.

On the Othered Left hand
reigns my Green Liberation EarthGoddess
cash co-investment votes
allotted to fund
NonViolent Communication Systems,
global win/win peace mediation
for restoring ecofeminist EarthPeace 
of multicultural nurturing gardeners,
dancing hunters and singing togatherers
renewing bio-energetic psalms
eco-synergetic proverbs 
love-life gospel health systems

Win/win ecopolitical strategic game systems
for planning to avoid Lose secular humanity
and Lose sacred Earth-divinity

By totally co-investing
our health-is-safe-wealth bipartisan votes
in our best good humored days
on Earth's tree-shaded 
Golden Ruling win/win beachfront

NonViolently surfing sufficient gratitude
to overpower personal wounds
delivered by over-investing in Red SunGod
without sufficient Green sun-screen

Too testosterone bright by day
and not all that estrogen empowering
in shadow starlit co-invested night

Ultra-violet endowed sight
by FullMoon liberally cooperative rights
to vote outside RedCash dominant 
hands of fright
feeding LeftBrain prominent flowstreams
departing RedSea terror
of monotheistic despairing trauma
Jehovah nightmares
and bad day anxiety scares

By imagining
sacred EarthTribe could be so kind
to rewind our Earth resident co-investments
becoming less AnthroSupremacist blind

More Red/Green bipartisan
panentheistically anticipating
more peak experiences
extending past monotheistic overpowering tax options

Already emerging love
for GreenLeft organic gardening
co-investing in dancing non-drama

Richly resonant,
polynomially positive
taste for co-infested dialogue
root systemic fragrant
feelings thoughtfully cooperative
truths of RedSun/GreenEarth
Yang/Yin WuWei
ecopolitical trust

Unconditionally warm anticipation
of holy cash gift fruits
each Other may co-invest
in this taxing pay to hospitably play
more EarthTribally reconnected 
and peaceful Red/Green proficient 
win/win co-intelligent election year.
