Us/We, Humanity

by Milandi

Love requires the following:

Love requires that we seek for and attain deepening levels of understanding.

Seek for deeper levels of understanding yourself and seek for deeper levels of understanding me, 

respectfully and consensually so as not to make a murderess of me, us/we, humanity.

Love requires faith in the goodness of well being.

Have faith that your well being is good and that my well being is good.

Love requires consideration for Us/We, humanity.

Be considerate of yourself and be considerate of me.

Love requires depths of respect warranting honesty. 

Be honest with yourself and be honest with me.  

Ask yourself this:

How do I love me 

right now

by loving you 

and how do I love you 

right now

by loving me?  

Herein lives 

the meaning of ecology.



No systematized presumption is above an entity’s authority of self, personal choice for health and safety within ranges which are 


contained within the parameters of personal, inter and intrapersonally safe conduction of forces.



Misinterpretation of humanity’s refusal to adjust to unjust systems 

as mental pathology or neurologic malady

is the misjudged projection of an hierarchical worldview in which a person’s agency 

derives from our placement along a spectrum of value.  

Let no system degrade respect

to infringe on the borders of personal autonomy

through lettering the so-called learned 

with legal means to assault.


The madness is

imagining people as material asset devices for the generation of currency,

when money is merely a manifestation of our minds which we perpetuate through systems,

but people are real.

Money is conceptual 

yet human beings comprise reality,

and humans 

being 

compose it.

The US of A and Israel are constructs whose foundations are cursed by negations of what is, 

in truth, real.  Integrate that.


On my homeland’s currency is minted the righteous creed,

“e pluribus unum.” “In plurality we unite” 

a massive redirect into whose insight  

humanity crucially requires.


Stand down.

Stop committing violence against our minds by dividing consciousness 

between that which we know that we know, 

and that which you know and pretend that we don’t. 

Just because a way is normalized does not make it worthy.


Liberty’s spirit–do you remember the original statue–my mother, Lora 

practiced the art of demonstrating her refusal to accept a system of inequity, 

callousness, and anti-Black Indigeneity as a concrete reality. 

She acknowledged, instead, 

the truth of awakening daily within a settler colonialist lucid nightmare. 


In my homeland, the state sanctions medical incarceration 

through infliction of neurotoxic substance addiction 

to cognitively suppress lady Lora Liberty’s insight.

This so-called “first world” Western European settler colonialist construct,

birthed from the deepest traumas to my ancestry, 

was founded and infrastructured on disambiguations of the word “cruelty.”


Everyone on this planet has been hurt and is hurting.  

Every grown folk has been assigned to mistrust, 

to fear, 

to shield 

to resort to abuses for the sake of those whom we mistakenly consider ours, 

not theirs. 

Not one of us is a possession.

Yet, we all belong. 

Recognize the results of trauma when you see them and provide empathy.  

But for the grace of love go we, humanity.



The state of Illinois abducted Lora, my mother,

spirit of liberty, legally

by means of the Chicago PD,

and utilized a psychiatric medical team 

to strategically transform her self protective rebellion into ennui, 

cracking a whip of “medication” to break Lady Lora Liberty’s will to be 

while garnering for the “mental health” industry

a life-long neurologically addicted consumer of their so-called 

goods.


For contrivers of globally enforced currencies 

who assign value based on thefts of people, 

lands, 

and endangering resource extraction

by means of psychological, economic and bodily duress;

it may be profitable to take my head or your head next

in a line of chemical warfare,

in which unchecked criminals 

profiteer from the mistreatment of segments of humanity 

deemed unworthy 

via medical mental health industries 

built by and subject to the needs of capitalist settler colonialist greed.


Those among us with the most magnanimous integrity 

are so beat down by credit bureaucracies and schemes of usury 

which theft our means for living; 

that we are sometimes found lying down on public grounds or hovering unkempt while meditating,

teetering our spirits along the thresholds delineating distinctions between ego identities, 

in order to quietly communicate 

unencumbered by orientations based on acquisition of material things. 


He/She/They 

are.

We are.

You are.

I am.

Delete objectification from conjugations of the verb “to be”

and you will have the meaning of life.

Repeat after me:

The meaning of life

is.

I am.

You are.

He/She/We are.

The meaning of life

is.

I am.

You are.

He/She/We are.


Now integrate that.


Repeat after me:

We are.

They are.

We are.

They are.

Now, remove the punctuation and capitalizations.


Repeat after me

we are

they are

we are

they are

we are

they are

we are

they are


Integrate that.


Now remove the line breaks.

We are they are we are they are we are they are we are they are we.  Integrate that.


Though the boundaries of our egos provide each and every individual with our personal agency,

we are co-creating reality 

together, collectively.

Us/We, humanity.


Let no banking system whose power derives from homicide

multiplied by orders of magnitude 

times terror yielding genocide, 

debt entrapment 

plus enslavement 

plus industrial terracide

account for the value of any one of us

nor any aspect of life.


An hierarchical societal caste system 

which distributes people’s value 

along any spectrum of worthiness

is an attack on your complexity

and on mine. 

It is right to respect one another 

regardless of accolades 

which may or may not merit esteem.


Whatever side of hierarchically caste aspersions 

into which we have been assigned 

demographically by birth, 

an hierarchical societal system which defines worth

along a scale 

on which anyone is higher or lower than any other of us 

is a measure of assessment created by small minds,

which is not worth our time.


Arise from monstrosities cast upon our families' living histories, 

from a global pattern of traumatic sins against ourselves and kin, 

to rebuild the world in a manner which is worthy of Us/We, they/she/he, you and me.

Disallow abusive systems from marring our minds into acting as though it is right to be unkind,

which chronically disregards considerations

that we do not know what those around us have survived. 

Though it is better to kill in self defense than to allow oneself to be continuously 

and injuriously maligned,

war is the theater of twisted spirits conducted by empty minds.


I wish there were an all-powerful altruistic God/dess diva to clear colonization sickness 

from all of our cognition with a third eye kiss,

to wipe out disordered thinking brought on by terroristic economic systems

which standardize

war–

through stupefaction of our minds via marketing psychologies 

which decomplexify our multiple trajectories of unhindered thinking

with this-vs.-that dichotomies, 

and multiple choice a-b-c-d reductions devoiding our lives of fully attended meaning–

as an industry.


That way of things has been preventing us from actualizing the global family’s destiny. 

No matter which way the sun shines, 

settler colonialism is ugly,

and selling murder is wrong.

Us/We, humanity’s resources have been usurped through deceits  

of indebtedness to a Western European for existing.

Through theft by instatement of banana republics, chattel enslavement and indebted 

servitude;

settler colonialism begs that we evolve away from it. 

We the survivors of colonization, 

We the survivors of enslavement,

We the survivors of genocide,

We the survivors rape, of looting and raids, are aggrieved and righteously enraged.

That way of things has wronged us.

That way of things has been wronging us.

That way of things is wrong.


What do we do?

War is not the way. 

Our way

is neither suicide nor matricide nor patricide nor sororicide nor fratricide 

nor fillicide nor parricide of any kind,

and every one on this planet is family.

Proper death is when elders let go in their sleep and quietly take flight from their slumber one night and proper death is every person’s birth right.


Arise collective and halt assaults from racist misogynist anthropologic misclassifications 

causing chronically hazardous socializations for unsafe misallocation 

of our most sacred resource, 

the people.

There is no such thing among humanity as any other correct basis for classification 

except 

Us/

We.  


Amiri said–as in Baraka, as in the 

Black AArts Movement in the USA–”there’s something in the way of things,” 

and he sang it from his soul night after night until he died.

We manifestors of the world have been miscast 

as live actors in a colonized theater of deceptive unchangeability,

spending our finite life’s breath maintaining treacheries against our own needs.

The futility!

We, humanity, must proceed with manifesting societies which are fit for all humanity’s progeny exceptionlessly.


We rise to value that which is worth valuing, Us/

We, humanity un-objectified, arise in expression of the meaning of life.

I am.  You are.  He/She/We are.  They are we are they are we are they are we.

Arise, humanity, and relegate cruelty to the annals of history.

Arise in the integration of all that we know that we know,

to walk the ways of wisdom.

Arise to steward ourselves forward into building ecologically sustainable customs for living.

Arise to seek for deeper levels of understanding respectfully and consensually,

with faith in the goodness of our well being, in consideration, honestly.

Arise to catalyze the mission of reshaping our world in manners worthy of ourselves and our progenies.

Arise.

We, humanity who have survived atrocities 

which no somatic communication can non-injuriously relay;

and

no verbal language can comprehensively say,

take medicine of rest, 

and arise.

Release internalized oppressions.

Release rage.

Release grief.

To the occasion of co-creating civilizations befitting of our lives 

this burgeoning millennium 3,

For the Love of Us/

We, humanity, must arise.
