A cup of tea

Care for a cup of tea
Maybe just a smile for me
Nowhere else to rather be
Not one place I am free

For the longest time you locked were in
Just a tear just a missing piece
A puzzle as puzzled it can be
Hourglass is only one step behind me

Free from me, my eternity
A wave of fire rides the streets
Fill in don't you dare darling
Carefree swim, swim to ceiling

Simple kiss on my pillow sleeps
Windy summer knocking with its heels
A sleepless night let's me deep
Sinking in a forest sheep

The champagne pops for a New Year
Inside the heart a hole won't heal
Oh rose, how daring of all you be
Small happy moments with you and me

Care for a cup of tea
Maybe just a smile for me
Nowhere else to rather be
Not one place I am free

Stages of spiritual alchemy- calcification dissolution separation  
-conjunction fermentation distillation coagulation  
Plexus- pharyngeal laryngeal cavernous  
-cardiac epi-gastric pro-static sacral  
Senses- five awakened two latent  
Periods into which life is divided  
Notes across the diatonic scale  
Major divisions of the embryo  
'Organs' at the base of brain  
'Organs' around the heart  
Layers of the auric egg  
Sides to the heptagon  
Seals of revelation  
Classical planets  
Levels of heaven  
Levels of hell  
Primary colors  
Ductless glands  
Sacred breaths  
Body systems  
Deadly sins  
Brain disks  
Orifices  
Elohims  
Virtues  
Altars  
 
Geometric path through life forming the septenary creature model
A heptad of colors singing the harmony that spreads into planetary
Vibrations as the solar musical dimensions with the keys across our
Consciousness of kingdoms and intuitions into the 7th Sabbath day
7th year a Sabbatic year, 7th Sabbatic year followed by a Jubilee year
7 weeks between Passover and Pentecost
7 days for the temple feast
7 times for our souls to meet

misc. catalog of death and dreams

     
   

1.    
 offbeat rhapsodies in shades of b&w
   
   
   
her tears roll down my back    
in archways of nonchalance    
that’s holding her, she    
wriggles directionless- a mess    
over a massive mess beneath    
in sobbed mumblings, hopes    
to be heard this time    
but    
the fuming summer at 40    
in a lethal cocktail    
with my    
hung over sleeplessness of ages    
deprives her of any chances    
kindles    
her little heart’s fury    
over the bed-side heated-up    
window sills- stammering    
in a butcher’s metallic bass  
mixed up in shrill glass strings, tossing    
my deafening fallenness    
into altitudes    
of nowhere… oh baby    
not again..had been lost    
time and again, not    
this time    

   
still knows the blank new pages    
that which is inserted by her    
disruptive notes    
had (en)lightened me beyond anything    
in flights of an unhidden glee    
but    
the glassine splinters of heart    
hooked in depths of a bled out    
mangled frame, crashes down    
this bruised bird in each rise    
   
   
2.    
amphibious existential crisis
   
   
   
tormenting pyres, the pull    
and the push podium you    
have me in, silently wrestling    
your cyanic midnight holds    
   
it’s a mysterious alchemy    
of how you unfuckingly fuck me    
in the shredding in~out    
distant abrasiveness    
you maintain so nuanced, staring    
onto my daring depths    
in your invincible ways…I    
couldn’t help    
but    
remain in your engulfing radii    
in a still standstill    
this rigorous ritual you spell    
   
metamorphosing me...    
   
could hardly breathe in the freezing cramps  
and the sweeping in painbitten ascendance of your touch    
towards a drained off cranial flight  
 
eyes of widening fixations are paling blank screens
pulled up hair strands syringe skins in goosebumps
and that, your solidifying sun in the rise
trying to fit in my sudden budding abstractions
of a sunken vacuuming enormity
   
   
   
enough is enough is enough, magic man    
   
frog-leapt yogic dimensions in deep dive    
transcends unto our collision    
   
hit-blooms in dews and fragrance    
of your eternal presence    
   
far yet so near    
   
the concept of ‘us’      
   
just the scent of your thought pollens    
swells an exuding crisis out of logjams

"Afraid You Are"

 

Afraid you are not to say
A thing at all, just shy away.
Why so timid, mild and obedient,
I’m telling you not to be lenient.

Is our voice long lost, and taken,
something gone and now forsaken?
Rise up, say something, subjectively
at least to me, speak out objectively.

Rated R, or more as I fall, and reel;
I can’t believe all the people that don’t feel.
What is it that tells you to look away?
I only wish I could fix it here today.

This is why we all are dying;
you turn your back to leave me crying
in these exhausting and murderous days;
please, just stand up only to say:

A meek and lonely phrase,
is powerful enough to praise.
Others likely feel the same;
to say nothing is just a shame.

Masochist

You’re a masochist,
For going back for more,
I guess you didn’t learn your lesson,
You’ve confused lust for love.

I’m not sure if that’s the way you want to be treated,
When in the long run everything will take a toll,
But I’m sure you already know that,
You just don’t want to be told.

You’re a glutton for punishment,
If you want your heart to be broken
Over and over again,
But then…
You might see something else everyone doesn’t,
Maybe you’re blind,
Maybe you’re just innocent.

You’ve confused lust for love,
Passion for obsession
Or whatever your definition of it is,
Somewhere in there
You don’t consider the value of your worth,
But when you go back for more,
It seems to me you’re a masochist.
