To: Man
Alas I take my leave, my friend
The poet's work will never bend
To will of man or earthly mortal
We take our leave through heaven's portal
SEEK the Truth & heal the blind &
Love on those you leave behind
For we are clay, and nothing more
Alas the True GOD will adore
Your prayers, thoughts and words of song
Even when you're feeling wrong.
So long.
We long for thee and all your grace
Which permeates through Ether's space
Who's love and kindness thus survives
Even when they take our lives.

To: Love
Love,
Why dost thou shine on the Earth?
What standard comes to give repose?
Endure, dear poet, speak thy heart
Spark the art of strife's remark
Behold, tomorrow they shall wear another face.
We came as they who came before
Not to adore
Not to worship, nor
To soar
.
.
.
To save
The Kings and Queens of Earth's domain
Whom write their trials wrought with pain
.
This pauper poet... rags adorn
Who never knew why he was born
Fathoms not how clay could scorn
A thing of love, so...

You Will Recall
You shall recall that overall
The man named Paul was good
Although his name, at first, was Saul
His heart was made of wood.
Indeed the wood of broken strain
When time and time and time again
They asked him to refrain.
But no.
Paul began to listen well
His words scared all the ones in hell
He saved the turtles stuck in shell
.
'Twas never easy, 'Twas never swell.
TheY threw us into darkened jails
They thought they'd kill, and thus prevail
To TRY TO silence fire's hails
Alas ...

Yin Yang <pipe><pipe> Wu Wei
What do children know of balance?
Balance hard, sexy easy
Balance shaky
Let's get queezey
Drugs and rocks and little ladies
Run amok and have your babies
but
"I'm a Republican"
The balance forces us to walk
Along the lines of Sandy chalk
You wonder why it's called "blurred lines"
The line is Dao
The feeble, blind
Seek that truth, and you will find
Mother nature's secret mind
To love and peace--the joyful kind
And all the other things divine.
Lo the balance shows The All
Sinful...

Sudden Illumination(sorry not sorry)
Light does not require shadow
Shadow NEEDS the light
To thrive & survive as Man sees fit
To "justify their fight"
WE do not war, until that day
When all is said and done
When women wail, and bells 'a-ring
&victory is won.
Holy Spirit come upon us
It is not the dark they fear
A sudden illumination
Behold the ears which cannot hear
Lambasted trepidation.
A smoothness cold come over thee
Foremove* your past-less** sin
Accept the Truth, and all your kin
the light will shine through me

NivRev 1 18 (inspired by the Pale rider)
What is the universal sense of Want and Ignorance
But the soul which makes enormous claims?"
Rise to flames, and none to blame.

We're all innocent here

taking a pound when I'm not around.

For FOOLS and MEN like you and I
Who never try to cry.

Free, small Wasp (irrational fear)
I was a worm in times ago
Who died at fate of Wasp
I captured one & let him go
Today, in stormy frost
The fear so large, the love so real
'Twas far surreal
In glass like cup
I picked him up
And off into the storm he flew.
Yonder, masterful cookoo
It took some time it took some prayer
The cup was rather wiggly
The storm was raging; I heard the Sayer
The frequency rather squiggly
Irrational fears! much bigger I AM
Than ANYTHING man can adore
Of freeing the Wasp and seeing Cyan ...

Lemonie 1
Shall we gaze upon your star
Whose twinkle luminates so far?
Shall we walk beside our ocean?
Long and far from Man's commotion
Suffer we to remain us here
Eternal company brings good cheer!
I gaze into your eye and feel
Warm & bold & full of zeal
What powers you possess, my love
Focused trial's perfect dove
If none of us be from above
Alas! I perish with words of Love.
Whose twinkle luminates so far?

Long and far from Man's commotion

(no subject)
I am real
I have MY faults
My sin is habitual
My vice sporadic
I come here in peace
To learn thee something
Forgive the weak
Forgive the strong
Forgive us, sinners
We know right from wrong.
Right?
.
or wrong?
Adam's STORY is JUST that a
Morally gory emotional story
but
you KNOW my story,
don't ya?
You know the vows I took and take
the meak.
the poor.
the widow.
the homeless.
the sickly.
.
Not you.
No... never you.
.
You're strong,...
I have MY faults
My sin is habitual
My vice sporadic
I come here in peace

Fear Not of They
CAST your bantering on the rock
Save your words of crass repose
No poet true can ever mock
what beauty life will give to those
Whom wish us death or blackened dreams
Back to you, it seems.
The Armor shines in glist'ning sun
No metal known, for we have none
We breathe out fire's foolish fun
and demons run.
Saul of Tarsus ravaged too
Euclid did his math like you
Think we raised in kingly houses?
Harken! Count my ragged blouses!
Sleep
Tranquil bliss of foreign ocean
Crystal sea's symmetric...

NEW BREATH
Spinning glide the Earth we dare
Sunshine looming everywhere
'Round about ten tendrils twine
Weakish clay's ephemeral swine..
Short in years & long in life
No pleasure prances absent strife!
Take heed, dear friends, the age has come
So treasure dances.. drink the rum.
Thy lusts will answer when silence speaks
When stand ye naked, adorned in heaps
Of clay and sand, and all your worth
To see if thou should know rebirth.
Take heed then, friend, I mortal like you
I live and breathe the same air as you ...
Sunshine looming everywhere
'Round about ten tendrils twine
Weakish clay's ephemeral swine..
Short in years & long in life
No pleasure prances absent strife!

Thy lusts will answer when silence speaks

To: the Gentle Hebrew
n frequent mind I do retain
The universal law of brain
Strange thy whispers cleaves to me
Running past the blooming tree
Highways long the pattern rift
Signal down electric shift
All thy troubles cleave asunder
Julius Caesar screams from under
Heat transposed from Greece to Rome
The gentle Hebrew's absent home
Light the fire!... quell the sea!
"And like thy shadow, follow thee"
The universal law of brain
Strange thy whispers cleaves to me
Running past the blooming tree
Highways long the pattern rift
Signal down electric shift
All thy troubles cleave asunder
Julius Caesar screams from under
Heat transposed from Greece to Rome
The gentle Hebrew's absent home
Light the fire!... quell the sea!
"And like thy shadow, follow thee"
