I under stand
\nYou are on
\nSome kind of in
\nStall meant plan
\nAs long
\nAs you still
\nPay attention
\nIn do time
\nI’ll pay for such in deference
\nHopefully not the final time
\nHaving been
\nPre-disposed
\nIn the passed
\nAnd per severe
\nBeyond just us
\nAnd awe claims
\nSow gossamer a ledge
\nHoly prone
\nSacred out of my wits
\nWith that owed time religion
\nBard none
\nU of life
\nWon
\nAs in daze of your
\nStill
\nIn the hear and now
\nAs I right
\nA tone
\nSublime volume
\nFor all too here
\nIt is
\nMy willing
\nAs well
\nFor give
\nThe ineffable scene
\nWear knot all is destined
\nAnd only that be
\nWhich under stood
\nHear after
\nThat awe in life
\nSir passing the grave
\nLife meeting its maker
\nComing a cross
\nIn attention
\nOut pacing
\nThought fullness
\nFated to outstrip
\nGetting just desserts
\nAnd given
\nThe wrest is history
\nTo whatever extant
\nI am
\nSow
\nInclined
\nEnd lessly
\nApp’ed
\nToo think
\nFor what is mind
\nFor what is yores
\nIn-during-ly
\nA where-ness
\nBequeathing real eyes<\/p>\n

This poem is about mindfulness.\u00a0 This poem is about acceptance, seeing things as they truly are, with a minimum of preconceived notions.\u00a0 This poem is about intimacy, vulnerability, living openly and freely in a whirled that often runs one over unconsciously, even at the hands of those with good intents.\u00a0 More specifically, this poem is informed and inspired by my experiences over recent months as a regular bicyclist, since I became car-less.\u00a0 It has dawned on me that riding my bike amidst distracted and unaware drivers of huge masses of metal, glass, and plastic — formerly known as cars — is a powerful metaphor for my worldview.\u00a0 Even if highly aware, the power differential possessed by unaware car drivers reliably results in them imposing the cost of their lack of awareness on those less powerful; in this case, a biker.\u00a0 They are insulated from the feedback, the costs, of their own mindlessness.\u00a0 I see such mindless, abusive power differentials wreaking havoc on our world most anywhere I look.\u00a0\"Only<\/a> At best, these mindless abuses of privilege (privilege as being on the stronger side of a power differential) are maladaptive.\u00a0 At worst, these mindless abuses of privilege are the foundation upon which evil can successfully manipulate the unconscious aspects of humanity to its own ends.\u00a0 In regard to intimacy, I would say that in the car-bicyclist relationship the car-driver represents the antithesis of vulnerability, literally protected by a huge wall of metal, glass, and plastic.\u00a0 To which the bicyclist offers their bare skin and an oft-ill-fitting plastic helmet for one’s consciousness-bearing noggin.\u00a0 You can draw your own particular picture of the implications of this larger dynamic played out in our social and political life together.\u00a0 In the world of urban cycling, let it suffice to say that good intent is not sufficient.\u00a0 Most drivers who violate your legal right-of-way are palpably repentant after<\/em> they realize what they have done.\u00a0 I take great pride in offering my existence as a biker to drivers to help them learn about the existence of other people who are made vulnerable by their mindlessness.\u00a0 Still, it is I who pays the greater price for this potential evolutionary relationship.\u00a0 Thus, this poem.<\/p>\n

If I am to be run over and killed by a mindless driver, please read this poem at my funeral, and offer this poem to the manslaughterer.\u00a0 Similarly, I offer myself up in the path of mindless (and mindful) political forces, in hopes of expanding humanity’s potential for evolution.\u00a0 If I should be run over and killed by some overtly political force, I am sure their are plenty of my other poems appropriate to be read at my memorial.\u00a0 In any case, wish me luck — if you believe in such things.<\/p>\n

I view consciousness, or mindfulness, as the primary force and indicator of human evolution.\u00a0 I view most of the bad things in this world as a byproduct of a mindfulness deficiency.\u00a0 Quantitatively, having no one at the wheel allows many, many bad things to happen.\u00a0 Qualitatively, having people who are aware of their destructive choices and yet still choose them — one definition of sin — is a scary situation because mindfulness alone is insufficient for self-correction.\u00a0 This is an active disease of the will.\u00a0 Still, the passivity of the will, of active mindfulness, carries most of the day in most of our everyday lives.\u00a0 I see that our lives are lived for us, as passive beings, to a larger degree than we live our lives consciously, mindfully.\u00a0 The epic showdowns between conscious evil and conscious good make for great, even necessary, storytelling, but does not reflect the less sexy, more mundane bulk of our own struggles for increasing consciousness, the prerequisite for any life truly lived.<\/p>\n

In the order of consciousness, self-awareness is a prerequisite for any fruitful other-awareness.\u00a0 Without self-awareness, we will be mired in unending unconscious, biased projections of our self onto the world of other people and things that make up our shared reality.\u00a0 My love of science is congruent with a desire to have an accurate understanding of our shared reality.\u00a0 Still, science falls disturbingly silent in addressing one’s inner life, and the ultimate, inescapable assumptions or projections onto other people.\u00a0 My working assumptions, based on my experience of my own inner life, is that people want to be accepted for who they are, positively appreciated, and want to contribute to a better world, our shared reality.\u00a0 I willingly project empathy and lovingkindness into the world, in hopes of a better world for all of us.\u00a0 If this is not what you want, feel free to let me know.\u00a0 \"<\/a>If I stray from these working assumptions, feel free to gently remind me of my deepest commitments.\u00a0 If I stand clearly apart from these working assumptions, feel free to tell me like it is in no uncertain terms.\u00a0 As the Russian proverb goes: “Better to be slapped with the truth than kissed with a lie.”<\/p>\n
