Love Poem: Island Nations

Island Nations

In a sense
each person capable of understanding these words
and those who speak diverse languages together
are island nations
splitting in two
by love
or fear
or both.

I have been concerned about the U.S. island of fundamentalist Christians,
formerly part of the One Creolizing Body of Christ,
now morbidly fascinated by fundamentalist Muslims,
as if they were each and all not patriarchal elitists 
terrorized by Holy JustWar Christians v Muslums
who tend to vote Republican,
to further their religious missionary freedom
to deny moral equity to other natural-spiritual experiences
on other Paradise Potentiated islands.

Republicans are increasingly AntiChristian Totalitarian
islands spreading across formerly restorative-therapeutic Earth,
interdependent health in a deep sacred ecological wealth sense,
sensory awareness
consciousness
throughout islands which lovingly remain profoundly and radically regenerative,
revolutionary in a PositivEnergy Polyphonic Perennial Way.

More Paradise Island
than rabidly exploitive of growing capital value inequities.
More pro-nutritional ecology,
healthy economic co-investments of all life forms,
energy functions and systems and island networks.

Paradising Islands invest for wealthy personal-political restorative exchanges
of justice through peace
for islands making love and not so much aggressive totalitarian control-seeking
over other morally inferior islands
reduced to mere subservient commodities.

Paradise is more gratefully embraced by Wise Elders 
of all multicultural islands
than is Westernized commodification
of Business As Usual capital exploitation
drowning dividing islands.

AgriBusiness extractions of commodities,
like FossilEnergy withdrawals of deep rich value,
come to us 
by way of colonizing capitalism's WinLose models
projecting further devolutionary games
between divided island nations.

But extractive norms for growing Earth's capital
came from older orthodoxies,
more sacredly and therapeutically held fundamental models
of Earth's restorative peace
rooted in ego-ecojustice.

Growing resilient and sustainable capital,
whether you are just another divided island, one Ego,
or also the Superintendent of HealthCare Schools,
or just a teaching or parenting island,
or the CEO of a global conglomerating island,
the chief administrator of a community,
the head poobah of a faith community,
the leader of a pack of predative wolves
or a gaggle of migrating geese,
cannot long prevail through colonizing predations
extractions from less empowered island commodities.

Resilient and reweaving Paradise Islands
are made of and for restoring secular-sacred SynergyLove,
within and between EarthTribe islands.

WinWin here and now choices,
bordering polypathic questions of changing healthy spiraling time,
our multiculturing GoldenRule default.

Restorative justice norms,
not retributive just and holy war retaliations,
pre-empt and preclude
ongoing fascinations with fundamentalism's zealous colonizing missionaries
and terrorists
harvesting God's BadNews commodities,
now giving grateful cooperative way
to creolizing revolutionary Great Restorative Transitions,
polypathic but also anciently orthodox,
patently ecological health
over retributive punishments of hell
in both after life
and current dividing island life of dying fear
and magic anti-historical fascinations
with Revelationary Second Comings.

Personal budgets, economic and political investments,
empowerment planning,
like school budgets
and municipal budgets
and state budgets,
are best balanced through restoring active love's cooperative therapies
for all island nations.

Sadly, deficit budgets and anti-ecological planning
are least resiliently balanced
through further extending extractive competitions
against Earth and Her SacredTribes,
growing debt with shrinking island nation hope 
for restoring healthy economic futures.

Retributive injustice is against commodified EarthIsland,
where once grew
the late great WinWin 
deep learning 
ecological root systems,
primal notnot (0)-Core-Sum-Commons relational
co-arising ego-eco equity,
co-investments of Paradise Island Love,
Divine Grace,
Secular/Sacred Karma,
restorative ecopolitics
of and for healing Paradise Islands.
