Compassionate Democracy

I believe,
rooted in limited personal experience
of unconditional love,
the purpose of democratic governance
is NOT FREEDOM of autonomously empowered persons,
segregated communities,
self-isolating economic states,
severed biosystemic regions,
patriotic partisan nation-states,
isolated continents.

I believe
mundane purposes
evince our deepest sacred meaning
for divine governance
is not freedom away from, or toward
my omnipotent god 
or our omniscient country,
but to restore
maintain
persevere
in unconditional 
omnipresent love
to and from
both divinely healthy
and humanely wealthy
cooperative
trust-building
co-governing relationships.

I believe
compassion is our secular 
public purpose,

And deeply trusted and delighted,
pleasant and pleasured
sacred meaning
for democratic win/win communication 
positive energy 
short term economic
and long-term ecological
greenback and forth co-governance.

I believe
freedom to express unconditional compassion
is Earth's win/win means
to an EarthTribal peace

Ending endless 
re-beginnings of competitive win/lose debates,
retributive isolating punishments,
greed-infested monocultural trauma governance
of the individual oppressive anthro-supremacist:

Repressive communities,
suppressive stressed states,
degenerative biochaotic regions,
rabid nation-states,
exploited until depleted 
discontented continents.

And I believe,
rooted in limited personal experience
of unconditional love,
this individual living health
is organic win/win intersectional wealth
unveiled in inter-religious sacred webs
of EarthTribe's living
co-passionate 
green/blue revolving
sacramental inspirating
dynamic geo-hemispheric
co-intelligently living 
resonantly resilient 
dipolar co-arising
bi-hemispheric 
surf peaking/exhausting
inhaling/exhaling 
AnthropoScenic planet.
