Respect For Integrity
A competitive path,
society v individual,
to retributive justice
is measured in accountability
of the individual
to respect
the imposed police and court
and prison system.
More cooperative polypaths,
individual Me AND social We,
to restoring Ego/EcoJustice
are measured in collective integrity
reducing trauma
isolation
intimidation
and chronic stress triggers
Polymorphically designing
and polynomially balancing
and polytheistically engaging
healthy positive energy relationships
slow-growing resilient plants
with people
with one regenerative
living
restorative
resilient planet
Throughout co-operative
space AND time communion now
past AND future timeless
health AND safety gifted presence
natural AND spiritual blessings
physical AND mental meta-integral
regenerations of
Cooperative polypaths
destined to restore Ego/EcoJustice
co-mediating secular/sacred
trans-binary new age dawning
old school cisbinary fawning
creolizing 1/0
bolt/nut
pole/hole
binomial integrity
Is definitely not
colonizing
ostracizing
and punishing.
Resilient peace
is not achieved
through dissociative punishing sticks,
with no hope for fresh round carrots.
Traumatic isolating accountability events
do not have therapeutic outcomes
measured in Earth's emergent integrity,
wounds seeking impressive healing;
not more oppressive hurting
Because,
as any gang
or tribe member
or resilient community knows,
trauma of past victimization
does not predict
a future of multiculturally
polyculturally inclusive
therapy
Because pathological governance
from predators above
and outside
is not resilient health
for those preyed upon
praying for natural
nurturing
nutritional compassion
below dispirited feelings
and inside tragic souls
Because patriarchal systemic trauma
power-over
is not ecofeminist therapeutic
power-with-and-within
Because stinging red pathology
is not soothing green health
or integrally learned
integrity woke
polychromatic wealth.
