A Realm Beyond Vision
A Realm Beyond Vision
To glimpse the universe in passion or desire,
And find paradise in both sand and fire,
Where wildflower’s bloom in empty field,
in spring their beauty is revealed
We Cradle Infinity within our arms,
while we Capture Eternity within chaotic calms.
We see only what our sight can glean,
Bound by the confines of blind routine
At the entrance of wisdom,
where shadows play,
Lamentation echoes beneath caverns wide and gray.
The closest enlightenment we seek to find, ...

And find paradise in both sand and fire,
Where wildflower’s bloom in empty field,

We see only what our sight can glean,
Bound by the confines of blind routine
At the entrance of wisdom,

“My Nocturnal Sacred Oil”
We stand as earthly enigmas, the Children of the Sun, unsolved mental puzzles, a maze through divinity’s reprieve
My heart fortified for the benevolence as I bow until the Yoruba Goddess Yemaya, Goddess Oya, and Goddess Oba, upon the world for which the sea and the wind unto humanity flows, knowledge is power, and wisdom is gold, rise your staff as you come to believe
Words of comfort in who you see never to deceive
Blessed by thy presence thy will shall be done
Given by the Father sanctioned by the...

In The Spirit Of Autumn
Ah, quiet autumn ! you stole from spring its breeze, its flat vibration, the feelings of ease,
and the warm souvenirs.A happy twitter larks joyfully over the hill, scents of the fall,
moments heavenly still, o'er the tip of a flowing quill.Your music waltz like a lullaby
with every leaf, gives a warm fusion with the foliage scattered, on and beside the empty streets.
Time breaks free again, its name never defines a season's reign, as the mist is fairly mild, softly thick, while, to the fine soul and the whole spirit, its the mystical truth of the human and his...

Seeds
The bee and the flower, how could either know
that because of their little dance the world lives?
Writing words is like waxing one’s carrot, to borrow from a colorful George Carlin metaphor. One sees something and it sets off a spark in the loins. What are words on a page but the end result of the same spark? and what is a sperm cell that is produced without first being a very pleasant hit of dopamine .
This is our process, displayed through a billion variations on the same life-giving theme and force.
But for every word written in this single suspended...

I Had A Dream (Shapeshifter-Martin Luther King, Jr.)
From the jungle as a Black Panther King, I once roamed
To commence me back into a human form, let my voice become your ring tone
This is not what I had in mind
Over the hills over that mountaintop, I have traveled through the portal of time
Let my words be heard for every man, woman, baby boy or every baby girl
The war is not with technology but with the diabolical tongue confessions of society when wickedness unfurls
I stood on the podium to declare my humbly decree
For every nation, every color, every region in the name or...

Entering the Storm - Unlikely Church #5
Jake entered Sarah’s apartment and gave Sarah a quick kiss as they laughed at their awkwardness.
Sarah stepped over to her refrigerator and said, “I need some water. Would you like a glass before we go?”
“Yes,” said Jake.
As Sarah turned, Jake noticed her soft puppy-like eyes opened wide as if focused on everything.
“Thank you,” Jake said taking the glass.
“Staying busy with school helped me cope with not seeing you for a whole week but it’s been hard,” she said feeling her face redden with a blush at her boldness.

Adonai
my mind drifts until nothing makes sense
to resist a feeling does no good
hurtful ways this is nothing new in my life
succubus of the soul
can men be she demons too?
faltering health I linger not live
walk about in dreams I walk the sky seeking Adonai
journey of endless time
forever searching for Adonai
worry is pain it's married to fear
does our Father ever want me to see him
so many galaxies yet to see
wondering about him I've seen his artistry
and it is amazing
in the garden's conception

Commencing The Passage Of My Soul (Earth)
Dwelling in the dominion in the hues of midnight
Baring the burdensome credence of me, myself and I, walking the naked journey as you give authority to the worth of your steadfast plight
You are you, and I am me, no need to compete with the path of your own feet
Implementing its mendacity discernment of consolation
Only the distorted revelations of self, dims the accountability, acceptability of the journey of one’s cognizant vibrations
Insights of the soul conveying into the darkness of its...

I appreciate "lost footage"(found footage) films- because I feel that's the human beings' story/experience in essence;
"first person"-Hudson platt- Cloverfield- one with an all too- more or less resonatable path; everyday one awakes- attempting to capture decent tape before the film cuts or a crash;
holding the "camera" wasn't his original task; but he made it his-even though sometimes he overdid it to the max; makes me want to take a philosophical look at that- when it comes to hosting one's...

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 ...
