UP TO EACH OF US ALONE (9-7-2011, 12:20am, Palm Springs, California)
in living my life here
in this continuous now
throughout
each and every
cyclically passing
yin yang
night and day
i only just now
suddenly realized
as this fleeting thought
subtly occurred to me
that i ve not
had much time
here lately
to stop and wonder
much less worry
if any further
long suppressed
subconsciously buried
unshed tears of mine
possibly lying
in dormant wait
deeply hidden still ahead
not yet stirred awake
nor alerted quite enough ...

TRANSCENDENT OPEN HEART of RADIANT AWAKENED BEING (4-7-2011, 8:30am, Palm Springs, California)
soft white light
quietly fell
upon this still
facade
of my silent
unseen
blinded truth
long held
yet hid away
from myself
and all as well
upon within
the previously mute
now open
yielding surface
of this once
blank
clean white empty
page
i now unleash
these freely fallen
words upon
again
unveiled here now
in this brief
inner glimpses
neuro plastic passive
purge
just as they have
always done
since way back ...

FULL HOOP FULL CIRCLES ROSY LANTERNED AWAKENED RETURN (3-22-2008, 3:03am, Palm Springs, California)
i love the subtle
moments
which come most
early morns
when sweet restful sleep
so gently lapses away
into new days
softly waking dawn
like some great
kind clouds
sunless
slowly passing shadow
which slips away
in silent stealthy retreat
unveiling in its tender leave
this new born dawns
flowing stream
of spontaneously released
reflectively captured
loosely worded
impressionistic
freely spilled glimpses
of open ended
awareness here
as distal first lights

NEURO SOMATIC PERPLEXIA (2:00am, 12-29-2016, Cathedral City ('COVE'), California)
2 a m
and here i sit
just 2 nights away
from new years eve
2016
slowly orbiting
this late nights
swollen vacuous
timeless depths
as if cryogenically
frozen
yet somehow still conscious
in some strange
limbo like
semi awakened
though still half asleep
hypnogogic restless state
of transfixed
attentive being
reflectively meditating
upon and within
the ceaseless
high frequency
subtle inner song
of its ringing
singing
so called emptiness
for any similarly subtle ...

BACK TO RETRO REVERSE INTROVERSION AGAIN (12:00am, 5-16-2022, Palm Springs, California)
ive so unsettlingly
noticed
increasingly
over these last
four or five years
and now
more than ever
it seems
that whenever
i find myself
in social gatherings
of almost any kind
where theres
more than
three or four
people
or even friends
ive known for years
at times
depending to some degree
at least
upon the situation
and the unpredictable mix
of egoic personalities ...

SHADOW DANCE (7-23-2000, Galveston Island, Texas)
morning sun
throws its warm gold
across upon into
my shirtless
back
as its all embracing
bright light
brands this long road
up ahead of me
as i ride
and roll on
my bike
ever further
into this strong
western
salty gulf breeze
as my shadow
precedes me
along this remote
open beach road
fleetingly hiding
in other shadows
i occasionally
pass through
along my way
where larger tree shadows

LIFE'S LIGHT (8-9-2000, 5:00am, Galveston Island, Texas)
life lives
life gives
life provides
when thanks
from true gratitude
is frequently
given
in return
and when
that given
freely in return
is selflessly shared
and freely
given back again
with all
of life
receiving and giving
in unconditional
equal return
for when life
and all those
receiving
and giving
consciously strive
to keep on
giving
and sharing
the gifts
of lifes light
freely
with others
life thrives
and keeps
the ongoing cycle...

WIND MOUNTAIN MORNING ('A CHEWENA SONG of ASSIMILATION') 7-4-2000, on Wind Mountain, near Tres Piedras, New Mexico
sunrise reveals
pink bands of clouds
stretching out above
wind mountain
out over this vast
glorious horizon
a continuous flow
of far off
mountain lines
that rise and fall
in distant shadows
of blue gray slopes
silent song
of earths great circle
surrounds me here
awakening
all across
throughout
this vibrant sea
of boundless land
in gently rolling hills
and plains
of cactus rock...

SAND CYCLES (5-11-2000, Galveston Island, Texas)
lying down to sleep
as old day slips away
funneled through
the upturned hourglass
of my surrendered mind
until the alarm clock
signals me
with soft music
turned down low
leading me gently
up and out
of sleeps receding hole
away from all my
now lapsed
dreamland wanderings
spontaneous journeys
gone
strange mysteries
soon forgotten
slipped away like sand
sunk back into that darker world
of deep subconscious

JOURNEYMAN (7-28-1999, Galveston Island, Texas)
i am a journeyman
deep in the machinery
of dreams
in my head
careening through scenes
upon iron wheels
screaming
on tracks laid ahead
by conscious
and subconscious things
not yet lived
nor said
that unfold
in the depths
of these dark inner fields
where in visions
i roam
so randomly led
by the real
and unknown
somewhere beyond
my minds control
another dimension
where perhaps
i can retrieve
something good to bring back
to benefit this world
where i am most...

RUNAWAY TRAIN (3-25-2000, 3:00-4:00am, Galveston Island, Texas)
another long day
left me extra
tired tonight
now three a m
with sleep so far
still
nowhere in sight
to be found
despite the fact
my runaway mind
is still on track
but its rushing wheels
are not yet
slowing down
for its worn out
brakes
showed signs
of failing
nearly two hours

when the conductor
first lost

NEW BORN SUN BEAM SONGS (June 1st, 2022, 5:30am, Palm Springs, California)
sweet
flinging flaming
fiery tongues
of cosmic
sun beam songs
unheard
unsung
by all ears here
except
my own
yet felt as well
vibrationally singing
throughout
my skin
my blood and bones
into my hands
sweet
three digited
finger hold
around onto
and on throughout
this manic pens
quietly channelled
free release
of mystically rooted
flowing inks ...
