The Mile Long Tree

Kill off the Mile Long Tree
For anyone who cares only cares about everyone
Revelation in mind, we don't feel the same
You should sort through your thick skull, my friend.
Each twig, a secret forever held
Each leaf, a statement never expelled.
My dear dreamcatcher, though my dearest is radical,
You're being ripped out by your roots, big buddy.
You're calling for unhelpful help.

So "Relational Warming" makes headline news
It consecrates our separate views.
They must've gathered some leaves,
And ever too many twigs.
You'll just grow another tree or two
To make up for the 'loss'
You'll just grow some extra foliage,
Replace the grass with moss
You'll just keep on making excuses
And dwell on your own exhaust.
But you're playing vampire in this romance, my darling.
To blame, you have only yourself.
You're dancing a dangerous dance, my dear
You're calling for unhelpful help.

Orangutans are rather rare
See a flash of orange up in the air?
They feed on fruit, swinging tree to tree
Living in relational jungle harmony


God is more of a friend than a formula

God is a relational being.
He is more of a friend than a formula
Do not get trapped in the dynamics of 
Trying to decipher the formula to get 
The life you want from God
God is more of a friend than a formula

Having God as a friend is the 
Most valuable aspect of your life
We speak and God speaks
We act and God the Father acts
We pray and God answers according to His Will
The God of Mercy is a Relational being
God is more of a friend than a formula
The Friendship of God is Grand, Majestic and full of Beauty

Premium Member Building Tension

Like a brick-by-brick castle unfolding. with scaffolding
Petals after petals of distress go on unfolding.
Feelings of hurt, ache, uncertainty, and anxiety
Like rust in iron, it pokes and corrodes my gaiety.

Is it my physique, which is ill within, that causes pain?
Is my psyche, like a parched, cracked earth, screaming to be sane?
Like a termite-eating piece of art, I crush and crumble.
On the rocks of my sadness and loneliness, I stumble.

Is my blood boiling like water at 100 degrees Celsius?
My fear, anger, and pessimism make me nefarious.
My unmet needs, relational plights, and suppressed powers
Have grown in my orchard of hearts, like cannabis flowers.

I should come out of tension, like chicks out of shredded shells.
I should, like a lotus, raise my head from these marshy wells.
I should allow the graces of the sole spirit to flow.
Like the lilies of wild fields, by divine glows, I must grow.

Yin Yang



             Bequeathed of the faculty of 
balanced return, of equilibrium, 
turning the totem burn of caloric expectancy, 
cause and effect 
translating universal machine dialect 
satellite positioning itself in the physics of
affection, affinity, sistered brotherhood in 
reality check of relative fee.

Beneath the atmosphere, here,
clings one to another like faded dusk 
to a pregnant dawn.
As he leaves, she returns, again 
to meet him in circular run.
In Fibonacci launchpad portals of
action and reaction chained to loop again.
Chi and grace turns,- will and space.
Like a cog that swings the pendulum scale, 
weighing relational phi in the window of pi?
Certainly in the window of possibility 
where the harmonic scale is like two dragons 
chasing each other's tales, 
hooking claws into foothold of reality, 
like a fitting piece of harmonic puzzle poetry.

There is no facade here, no illusion or trickery.
Science is poetry and poetry is the science 
of the mind in artistry, intertwined.
Everything with potential, dependency.
Yin and Yang, 
of the divine.


Premium Member Inside Climate Mess

Inside monotheistic ego aware
feeling
outside polytheistic co-empathic

These inside enlightened intuitions
outside verbal empowering cognitions
reflecting cooperative
in-between positive co-relationship
representing explicit wealth wants
and implied health needs

Win/Win co-relational regard
awareness
noticing all genetic roads lead back
back
back

To outside EarthTribe stabilization
inside
four-dimensional whole system fractals

Winters inside dormant outside

Springing active outside leading
feeding inside wealth of hunger
and healthy thirst

Summer ego/eco-climaxing systems
nurturing nutritional
identity individuation
full Yang cooperative maturation

Falling mortal outside leaves
failing freezing young root systems,
buried inside nuts
and seeds
of potential refertility

Autumn's harvest integrity
reflecting 
fomenting inside naked souls
feeding outside depleted soil

Positively regarding balance
tipping winter solstice promise
of ecosystemic past inside
and future outside
regenerations

Yet to EarthTribe thrive
despite genocidal
climate warnings

Inside ego aware
encultured feelings
outside co-empathic.

Premium Member Paradox Reversion

Introversion explores an isolated ego voice

While extra-relational versions
speak a more complex eco-political choice
of historic context
embedded in sensory feelings
positively healthy memories
and those more negatively traumatic,
wealth stealing

And those stuck in in-between
and/or not negatively aptic
unresolved non-synaptic
not clearly either elastic
or emotively spastic

Win grace
or lose life's race,
true or false,
attractive
or repugnant face

Awaiting evolution's revolutionary cycle
slowly turning toward resolution
full and/or empty,
enlightening dark ego inside fears
and traumatic angers,
empowering memories of past dismembering
anticipations deeper even than anxious despair
for lack of active healthy wealth
rather than emotional constipation.

Monotheistic egos
evolving toward panentheistic
win/win living organic ecosystems
of EarthTribe immortal
inside nature as also HolySpirit out
not not polynomial
balanced wu-wei polypathic 
polymathic Tao.

Premium Member Our Place In Time

As autonomous space
is to empowering internally uniting Matter,

So too is eternal stasis,
emptiness of incarnate co-relational,
changing,
flowing Time
to enLightened Energy,
Whole OpenSystemic,
universal

Lose/Lose past ZeroZone 
absence of verbalized memory,
through Win/Lose present
window to Win/Win future
nondualistic Ego-place
within EcoSystemic synergetic Time

Left/Right bilaterally hemispheric
intelligent SpaceBody/MindTime.

Premium Member Victimless Luck

A reverse corollary of faith 
in "make your own luck"
is to blame the losing victim.

Optimizing our win/win resilient fortune,
wealth,
treasured health
and safety
and wellbeing defense
is not the same as "self-making" a robust future

Autonomously
ego-centrically
dissociated from informed win/win cooperative
democratic political health
and/or co-invested socio-ecological
eco-feminist 
economic nutritional flow systems

Like organic beings with branches:
Yintegral organic rivers,
nutritious MotherTrees,
and enriching global bank networks
of capital macro-economic 
interactive systems,

Networks of branches,
co-mediated collaboratives
win/win co-empathic
co-relational
nonviolent communications
for restoring healthy theological peace
as also wealth of ecological justice

And, oh yes,
lucky win/win economic co-investments
in integrity's potential health of wealth.

Premium Member True Grace

True Grace specifies no special face to extend God's Grace.

Religion at its finest could never define the True God of the Bible.

Understanding and loving God demand that we do likewise with others.

Ecclesiastical organizations are great assets for reliving human suffering.


Giving His only begotten son was God's greatest example of loving humanity.

Reliance and resting in the reality that enables us to give our lives in service 

Activate True Grace, and we set an example of Relational Christianity.

Religion is both God-centered and taking care of orphans and widows.*

Exceptionalism should be a trait of Christians that is given as seasoning.

Premium Member Earth Day Synergy

Sound is vibration
begets round sound,
random noise,
white nuances,
dark soulful nights,
symphonic nests,
harmonic intersections

Organic macrolife is self and other, 
ego and eco, empowerment
begets unvoiced
prevoiced
voiced
revoiced
nonvoiced enculturing love
choice

For love is God's great goddess power
begets compassion between faithful passion tribes
of trees,
toads,
turtles,
thistles,
thunder,
testimonies,
civil teas

Regenerating energy
resounding vibrant co-relational
responsive co-passions
responsible correlations

In-between rhythms
vibrating round patterned sound
of EarthDay powers
of light systemic synergy.

Premium Member Chakras Shocking Sensibilities

It feels difficult,
and more urgent in advanced single age,
when mind and root dominant chakras,
perhaps highest and deep best,
conspire against heart
and root resonant chakra,

Difficult
to conspire toward short term positive outcomes
such seniority should actively deploy
and then peacefully enjoy

While also entertaining
how to deeply respirate toward long term
resilient incoming
and resonant outgoing relationships
such wise elders
could fluidly compassion

With non-violent communication,
win/win cooperative ecopolitical development
conjoining these places
spaces
traces toward one's own theological temples

Are another's inviting ecological
co-relational passion
of mind
and heart
and deep rooting chakras.

Premium Member Neoconservationists

Unitarian-Universalist bicameral principles,
like Yin-Yang Tao governance dynamics,
are a supportive context for discovering our own economic-political,
social-psychological,
eco-neurological,
theo-multicultural Truths.

But, ZenZero Taoism is more than poly-analogical.
UnitingYin and UniversalYang prime zero-balancing relationship
is also a non-violent compassionate therapy
for rediscovering individual EgoTruth
within Earth's interdependent living EcoWeb
of all becoming health-wealthy Truths

Of AllSouls
throughout all catholic
positive democratic
egalitarian energetic 
co-relational 4D SpaceTime

Born of resonant matriarchal/patriarchal DNA
0/1 double-binary intersectional
fractally binomial
and warm wet polynomial
regeneratively polypathic
fertile health wombed polyphonic

Integrally harmonic
of
and for,

and organically within
Earth's health/wealth regeneration.

Physiology

Relational,
Situational.

Rate aware,
Said affair. 

Increments,
Detriments.

Free choice,
My voice.

At the gym,
Inside vim.

Sim ready.
Foot steady.

Premium Member Hate-Love Relationship

Where we embrace love,
Grief is as strong as death;
love lost.

Where we are afflicted with hate,
Gratitude is as strong as death;
loss wished for.

Grief rages against loss,
Yet gratitude lost
can become violently angered,
terrorist frightened
of present and future
as past's reincarnate vulnerable pain.

Grief begins
felt in solitary vulnerability.
Gratitude eventually heals
through transparently shared solidarity.

Love is as strong as
mortality's vulnerable weakness.
No more,
no less,
as these merge into one healing face
of gratitude for co-relational gain
more than mere mutual absence of pain.

Habitual love,
Earth-inhabiting resonant life,
Eco-regenerativity
as strong as
Ego-relationality.

Together,
ego/eco-passion.
