Love Poem: UnWatering Trumpian Terror

UnWatering Trumpian Terror

I'm so confused,
raised to believe cooperative love powers
over competing fears
about scarcity of healthy time, 
and other resources
for evacuating anger 
about past over- and under-valuing of myself
as a regenerate wealth source

CoPresent ReTort,
raised to believe the Golden Rule
is most effectively applied to all life,
as cooperative ecological potential.

I don't see how it could be OK
to run a national political campaign
assuming I will confuse the taking of life for hungry needs
as less just than the taking of life for punishing 
nationally revengeful wants
to control death-debt owed 
for death delivered

As if it were possible to kill
disempowering clans of terrorists
repeatedly
for each and every innocent life taken
by unholy cynicism 
of degenerative despair.

I find this violence-begets-violence nowhere else
in any communication system,
anything that could possibly be called a sustainable 
social system,
in any form of nature,
other than inhumane nature 
of de-natured humanity.

However, now that I think of it,
perhaps we do see something of its kind
in diseased and over-crowded populations,
literally eating their young.

We often call this "rabidity"
as individuals,
families,
tribes,
swarming in a survivalist snarl,
turn to prey on each vulnerable Other,
begin unprovoked tribalism,
perhaps as a form of punishment or retribution
for past angers and fears 
only Trumpian champions of chaos
can see
and feel;
a mounting haunted monoculture 
of mutual disregard and antipathy,
entitled immunity,
trending toward Lose-economic 
and Lose-ecological
outcomes.

Is it wise to sanction terrifying violence 
to be perpetrated by others
on our behalf,
at any scale,
for any reason?

How is abuse and neglect of fear-producing Trumpians
not hypocritical 
for a person who believes in the power of cooperative love
as a more effective Golden Rule 
than "Beat Others down before they Win more than you"?

Do we intend to improve anything 
beyond AnthroCentric overcrowding, 
more violence, 
more retributive justice 
trending toward decay 
of all Earth's pro-love systems?

Am I to invest
or disinvest
in a competing human race?
or a humanizing regenerate time
and Earthy space?

Or, are we somewhere MidWay between?
Sometimes competing anger and fear might be Teachers,
I suppose,
although still not the best choice-makers.

Perhaps we could leave cooperative balancing
of Tipping Point decomposition 
and analysis of therapeutic v toxic trends,
within exclusive charge of CoArising Love 
Golden Rule voice-making

Choosing to invest in regenerative health potential values 
of a life,
and a biosystem,
a communing ecosystem,
to integrally infest Earth's regenerating health 
and vivid vitality.

Yet, Earth does not necessarily
always and at all times,
water humane flowers
to starve the weeds.
More often, weeds starve flowers of water
as Crusading Christians starved wealthy diversity
through violent ex-communication.

So, if these interdependently organic
cooperating relationships
between and within individuals,
families of weeds,
tribes of flowers,
nations and planets,
and thriving balance of co-arising bodies with minds
are what we seem to love,
then why do we suboptimize with Win/Lose partisan choices
to compete against each other
for livelihood,
wealthy sense of healthy value,
for power to declare war against each other,
for rights to abuse
and neglect 
and ex-communicate each other

As if Earth's evolutionary journey
is not historically rooted
in cooperative 
regenerate 
interdependent health

As life's thriving cells
quickly attest,
even under threat 
of Trumpian ex-communication.

It is difficult for me to find any faith
or even hope
in the belief that Earth produced this humanizing race
toward degenerating dissonance
and overly-competitive Win or Lose strategies
of LeftBrain verbally prominent
political and economic
mind dominance.

It feels less confusing to me
to comprehend we are healthiest co-loving each other
in a rapidly overpopulating rabid species
with humane researching and incubating
emergently embryonic
wealthy democratic multiculturing aspirations

To optimize WorldWide Win/Win systemic networks,
to balance Left with Right 
Mind/Body co-mentoring intelligence

Resonating all our bipartisan systemic communication,
reforming democratic health 
with nondual co-arising cooperative wealth function

Perhaps, then, it is less confusing to me
to think about how to invest more wisely
in non-violent empathy 
of Basic Health Equity

To notice and listen with still-centered mind/body,
co-empathically absorbing Trumpian fear and anger
saturating toxic terror that my life,
therefore your life,
has no ego-intrinsic value
because RightWing AnthroPrivileged Mythology 
is too dissonantly dominant
over LeftWing EarthRegenerational Analogy,
so global health demise
predicts no EarthWealth degenerating disvalue.

From this position
I cannot see SunGod as ReGenerator Power and Flow,
nor Earth HolySpirit with healthy nature-body
wealthy spirit-mind
Love with synergetic co-intention

TransParent co-empathic elational 
Beloved Earth-Community potential
as nonverbally felt
through dipolar co-gravitating 
ego-mind wealth
eco-body health
normative bicameral lenses.

How is any Trumpian terrifying directive 
to starve 
and/or neglect 
and/or kill
and/or hate
not what monotheists have known as ex-communication
unto hell-fired decay?

Disempowering righthand dissonance 
struggling against enlightened lefthand resonance

When we could win/win conservatively choose 
to liberally emerge 
healthy mind
and wealthy body regenerators
re-communicative co-empathic 
bipartisan optimizers

Co-mentoring Earth-regenerate worshipers
reforesting our rivers for clean water
and cooler air
and healthier soil
and less rabid fires

Repurposing win/win integrity
as mutual subsidiarity within 
sacred EarthTribe
love-healthy-life 
neurosystems
biosystems,
therapeutic ego-mind
eco-embodied
 
Health/Wealth 
Win/Win co-empathic
democratic neurosystems.
