a strong interest in prioritizing
1) eco-balance
2) peace-play
3) the full and free expression of young children as dancers
drummers poets singers cartoonists instrument players
mimes sculptors comedians dramatizers
Wanted: people who will "crawl for Congress" as candidates
in all 435 Congressional districts for 12 to 20 minutes a day
as 7th generation paleocons with the above priorities
immediate goals and action
cultivating the free and full expression of children
comes first because it is deeply satisfying
and the peace movement is small elderly
needs many young people who are fully alive
not technococooned
not alienated
not addicted
not passive consumers
a large and lively peace movement
diverting resources
from stewpit counterproductive wasteful wars
to ecological problem solving
will make radicle (rooted) decentralism
Jeffersonian yeoman farming communities
free states
retribalization
participatory democracy & sociable socialism
local music & dance traditions
possible and sustainable now
& for the 7th generation
& beyond
peace ecological balance children @ play
homo ludens collaboratus (r species being) the American way
this is the mom the libertarian apple pie has been missing
Old Mothernature OMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmmmm
so simple -- "mom & apple pie" the very pie mother mary
imagined eve cooking up for her man adam full of know-how
modest nourishing reality-as-it-is-Nature feeds us every day
in every way no more no less, enuf for life -- free of stuffff

a poem leaves abstractions
a poem leaves abstractions in its wake
blessed be the bridges of waldrep and resistant bees raptured
a poem drops the red blood dot out of the blue sky into the blue sea
bring on the International Society of Ecology & Culture
a poem discards unneccessarries of vagueness
for chinese street sweepers to pick up every salaried day
a poem insists on species specifics & multiple modes of being
blessed be the poet shopper of pomegranates at walmart
a poem must blend grand abstractions with the minute particulars
or we will die of computerized hyperdata, suprainformed,
plastificated, underactuarialized, premortified, ultrainundated, simulacrafied, ubermasticated, etc. etc.

another poem enters
how a poem enters
a poem enters the world and tells some story about what it senses
james brown rubber duckie sits in green atop GATEWAY2000 speaker
a poem blends one consciousness with conscience-of-the-lineage
jb died but left me in awe of dad penguin's blueblacktoes
a poem condenses lived experience into a passion for play
jb went under the cloak and came back repeatedly, yeabo!
a poem praises and sacramentalizes life as it opposes entropy
jb ej jc jg all departed but mcoy tyner still sharing
do one a day for mindness, motricity and well being

National Glory same olde story
from Dr. Benjamin Rush's Plan for a Peace Office
In order more deeply to affect the minds of the citizens
of the United States with the blessings of peace,
by contrasting them with the evils of war,
let the following inscriptions be painted
upon the sign which is placed over the door
of the War Office.
1. An office for butchering the human species.
2. A Widow and Orphan making office.
3. A broken bone making office.
4. A Wooden leg making office.
5. An office for the creating of public and private vices.
6. An office for creating a public debt.
7. An office for creating speculators, stock jobbers, and bankrupts.
8. An office for creating famine.
9. An office for creating pestilential diseases.
10. An office for creating poverty, and the destruction of liberty,
and national happiness.
In the lobby of this office let there be painted
representations of all the common military instruments of death,
also human skulls, broken bones, unburied and putrefying dead bodies,
hospitals crowded with sick and wounded soldiers,
villages on fire, mothers in besieged towns
eating the flesh of their children,
ships sinking in the ocean, rivers dyed with blood,
and extensive plains without a tree or fence, or any object,
but the ruins of deserted farm houses.
Above this group of woeful figures, –
let the following words be inserted,
in red characters to represent human blood,
"NATIONAL GLORY."

from one of We the people
Dear Ralph, Naomi, Wes & Wendell, Oren,
Starhawk, Andy Kimbrell, Bill McKibben
and all the candidates
that the poets, vegetarians,
12 steppers, animal rights activists,
be-all-ogists, echologists, gyn-ecologists,
unions of concerned scientists, 350.org people,
etcetera etcetera
can muster,
We need many independent libertarian candidates
in every one of the 435 congressional districts
so a significant number of "only the rich
can save us" republicans will join in
& create a 7th Generation Party that can:
1) actually elect 10 to 20 or more of us
to the House of Representatives;
2) gradually or suddenly replace the present g o p
turning it into a "3rd party"
(think of many districts
where the incumbent democrat wins big
because the "conservative" vote is split
& "We" come in 2nd);
3) do the education/consciousness-raising/awareness
of co-evolution play that must be done
if we are to bring progress/growth/development
nightmare to a sane
swift
decentralized democracy & justice for all
conclusion
let me put it in the negatives
IF we don't do this in 2010
there's a high probability that team obama
accomplishes nothing of importance
in 2nd two years of a one term presidency
fear mongering republicans return to power
with revenge on their ledged minds
wars continue to feed the war corporations
6th extinction and global storming
not only continue
but accelerate
bacteria and viruses breed and co-evolve
70 times faster than we do
and one or two nasty ones will spread quicker
in starving, weakened, immune-compromised populations
the century of world wars and genocides wasn't pretty
the century of plagues, heating, dessication, flooding
and more genocides will be so much uglier
many will welcome the grim reaper with a sigh of relief
and a 7th Generation Party may never see
the light of day
we have a chance
an opportunity
11 months from now
to change the direction
toward simplicity
less tech
no nukes
planned parenthood
conservation
angeleek's uneek soup kitchen
groove de la groove daycare
dance ur blues away fitness
conflict resolution center
in every neighborhood
sustainable and egalitarian
joy filled living
we the people may not get another chance
sincerely,
