Multicultural Britain - An Unapologetic StatementMulticultural Britain
(An Unapologetic Statement)
Two “Festivals of Light” there are
Each and every year
The Jewish have their Hanukah
And Hindus their Diwali cheer
The end of Ramadan brings Eid il Fitr
The Muslim fasting's passed
The Welsh National Eisteddford
Culture, craft, songs not surpassed
There is the pagan Betain
That Celtic Festival of Fire
And...

Why Multicultural Education MattersThe Twelfth Principle
Cooperatively adopt
and responsively adapt
for creolizing acclimation,
best climate and landscape health practices.
The U.S. today
reweaves two points of national nurturing departure,
both taught in schools
and history books
and multicultural sciences
and scents
and sounds.
LeftBrain dominance,
here in post-millennial enculturing lands,
remembers most of us came to be
in this U.S. place and...

Black People Are Not MulticulturalI find it humorous how folks like to say, "multicultural",
Multicultural is a very safe euphemism,
For it euphemizes mass incarceration and exploitation.
It enables organizations to create one slot for any brown, yellow, or red character
and call themselves "progressive".
Meanwhile we brown, yellow, red, and black, fight...

Multicultural MulticoloursAn aged lady, sitting resplendent
Adorned in shades of lilac, elegant
And poised portrait divine! Transcendent!
A women walks with bended arm that holds
A draping robe of regal reds and golds -
Her body's motions flowing in the folds.
A youthful form of psychedelic hues,
Mosaic blends of...

Growing Multicultural ComfortTolerance of differences
quietly lies between passive-aggressive anger,
then fear,
then active hatred,
And all the way on up to enchanting positive awe,
and then ecstatically cooperative wonder,
and then sacred multiculturing,
creolizing,
transubstantiating communion
of whole synergetic multilateral systems.
Neutral heuristic faith in Golden Rules and Ratios--
despite past warring differences,
chaotic oppositions of power
and complex...

Counting Green SheepOur current political identity
is not exclusively red conservative
or blue liberal atheist/humanist
We are also
pissed off sheep
who have gone astray
of richly green domesticated economies,
instead red enslaved,

Descending from a long

of Straight White Male

Peace Mediating PoetryThanks so much for forwarding
these John Paul Lederach stories
of un-learning academic approaches
to peace mediation.
I wonder if you remembered
my ongoing certification process
for justice-restoring mediation
in complex multicultural conflicting histories;
which are typically antithetical to resilient peace
through ongoing safe and healthy relationships.
With this background,
I was struck by "un-learning".
To regain...

Red Justice But Green PeaceHeteroSapiens have bipolar developed
miraculous capacities

legitimate moral peace initiatives
subordinate to licit legal judicial systems
Judiciously approved punishment
for misdemeanors
felonies,
cardinal

and carnal
and original sins
requiring flat fees
regardless of capacity to pay,
imprisonment,
enslavement,
lynching,
beheading,
burning at the stake,

Capital disembodied punishments
NOT defined

divined as unusually cruel retributions
against those creatures legitimate society

Surviving Pandemic WinterWinter survivors

Spring green economic

On through summer climax

Transitions back to winter's more vaccinated closing
Closeted fear of losing

Of depressing changes

Oh Sweet MysterySaid Earth's Oceanic Therapist
to Heaven's Meditation Master,
Silent,
aparting meditation
naturally exhales
toward inhaling wet green co-passion
dipolar communions
following appositive surfing inquisitions
of courageously resilient undercurrents
turbulantly co-arising curiosity.
Wanting,
needing,
craving an orgiastic climax
bilateral
dipolar warm and welcome baptizing
Without first give and taking turns
active working,
listening and speaking
nonviolent foreplay
co-passioning cooperative intent,
Is like going...

When I feel compassion

negative fortress wants
