Long poems about meditation. 300 words or more, most recently published poems first.
Yin & Yang
It’s yin and yang,
the dance of light and dark,
each needing the other
to keep life balanced.
We tug at the threads of blame,
claiming truth on either side,
but in reality—
neither of us is always right
nor always wrong.
We move through life,
clutching at self-preservation,
yet sleepwalking in the shadow of our own minds,
unaware of the darkness we fear.
If you fear your shadows,
know this—
you haven’t touched divinity yet,
there’s still more of you to...

each needing the other
to keep life balanced.

The Illusion Of Peace
The Wax (Manipura Chakra-Yellow Candle)
The illusion of peace
What is peace
Is it the serenity that you find in your surroundings
Is it the comfort that you get from your mentality
Is it your footsteps, is it your goals
Or is it simply your dreams
The serenity of peace
We get from Mother Nature
From her soil
As we implant our hands
To bring her fertilization unto the creation
Is it the trees
That brings us such beautiful oxygen
As we inhale and...

WHAT IS THE SOUND (10-27-2019; expanded reflections on a classic, old, Japanese, Zen Buddhist koan; Palm Springs, CA)
what is the sound
of one hand clapping
perhaps the same
of two hands not
what is the sound
of one hand washing
perhaps the sound
of water doing
all the work
what is the remedial
echoing sound
of your grievously frustrated
innermost longing
for all the things
you most want in your life
but presently
do not have
perhaps the more ...

In The Midst Of Time (Deliverance-COTS)
The power of self to sustain borrowed time in the province we call life resides in the heart, mind, and soul and it commissions
From past lives you may have upon evolution’s wishes
Do you carry the interpretations of being a good influencer of the mind, or forsaken the brethren of mankind for the comforts of false riches
By the blood of the lamb, you have choices who you are, who will you become, and how you chose to live
Evil, wickedness, to appease the masses

You Give The Mind Liberty Or You Give The Body Death
The echoes of my mind unto rainbows softly unfurls
Soaring within the firmaments of His covenant as a peaceful bird
I like it so much better up here
No more pain, and no more tears
Revelation twenty-one verse four
The moon is where my Chakras takes me too when I need peace to seep from my pores
Stirring down below
Hades, carnage, political corruption daily blows
Breathe clean air the...

“He’s The Moorish Moth To My Internal Hebrew Flame”
The teacher, preacher, yet still the student
I take the avowal of my impartialness, but yet still prudent
There came a gallant man breathlessly I awaited
Gently kisses my mind, feelings never dissipated
Magnetic words felt to my fluttering heart
Loving the erratic pulsate from the mental jumpstart
When daylight has gone
And darkness is in full bloom
He dreams of me for my alluring flames to softy swoon
Visiting me in his candle lit bedroom
Speak in my ear tenderly, softly, pudding in...

Who You Are
Consider who you'd rather be
And realize that’s who you’ve always been
All your differing personalities,
Mere reflections of your family's and friends’
They may think they have your best interest in mind
But there’s only one you who can truly decide
What’s right for your life
So recall all you have ever known
And you'll be shown that there is always more
Every line your mind has ever drawn,
Already gone, washed up beyond the shore
You...

evening there is feeling.”

in the midst of all your pieces,

as your helplessness increases.

I AM EVERYTHING
The worst thought that has ever crossed my mind is 'how would life be for everybody
If I was died in this very moment?'
I look at everyone's life and honestly
I don't see where I fit in
I know they'd cry for me
However after sometime
Everyone will move on
Everybodies life will be similar
Dare I say even better
It's a sad thought but it's true
Don't get me wrong this isn't merely pessimism take the reigns over my mind
This is a feeling that hurts me deeply
Have I really lived for so long
Only to be an after thought?

I AM SOMETHING
I wish my life panned out better
I wish I would've gotten my wins sooner
I wish that my grandmother never died
That I could still talk to her when I'm down
I wish I still had her wisdom to get me by
I wish she saw me win
I wish my family never broke apart afterwards
I wish we would've regrouped and went forwards
I wish there wasn't animosity brewing
I wish I wouldn't done better in life
That I would have never gotten my heart broken
I wish I would've healed quicker
That life wouldn't been easier on me
I wish I never knew pain...

Free Ideas
Inspiration can come from conversation
Sporadically, too
Here are thoughts that flit all day
Free for you to use
I cannot give a poem
Just something to muse
So here we go I'll write down what I can without further adieu
The word provocative, how it can be misused
The effects of such misuse
The discounting of children's views on identity by grown obtuse
... This applies to any other truths they may observe, too
Disdain among the older when confronted with questioning youth
The...

Repainting The Creation Of My Soul
It feels as if I have a been on a beautiful journey with self
Over the mountains through the valleys, my soul I have met
Cadence of enticements to make my heart swoon and melt
Whispers heard weakening choices
Confusion of the mind, invitations of heart, from so many voices
Here, I sit alone, among quite, required peace
A beautiful blending of my heart, my mind, my body, now at one with me
If I don’t reach out, it’s my soul I try to remain to keep
My body as an instrument, as honey slowly seeps
In my...
