Carry Me Back Home
Memories fade like seasons
Slowly losing them all
Holding on for the right reasons
Waiting to receive the call
Spent way too many years
Chasing down every ghost
Struggling against my fears
Wondering who I’ll miss most
Life is difficult to survive
Crawling towards the light
When the show goes live
Under the cover of night
In the midst of great strife
The beast will fall like Rome
Dear lord who gave me life
Please carry me back home
Slowly losing them all
Holding on for the right reasons
Waiting to receive the call
Spent way too many years
Chasing down every ghost
Struggling against my fears
Wondering who I’ll miss most
Life is difficult to survive
Crawling towards the light
When the show goes live
Under the cover of night
In the midst of great strife
The beast will fall like Rome
Dear lord who gave me life
Please carry me back home

(The Last Upper)
Jesus had a huge supper, with large amounts of uppers
Cocaine, amphetamines & methamphetamine
The aliens from our future planet came to visit him on this special day
They offered him food, drink & loads of drugs
Most disciples were upset with this and walked out
A few stayed for the debauchery
There were also punks, metal heads, hip artists and free thinkers at this gathering
Such unity, democracy, in one social gathering
The image I included here is the original Leonardo da Vinci painting that showcased what was really happening during the last...

Ishtar
Easter Sunday, the day of resurrection,
As we celebrate Christ's rising from the dead,
I believe he did rise,
But the word Easter was taken from a Sumerian religion called Ishtar
The eggs and bunnies are symbols of fertility rites
She was the Goddess of love and war for many ancient cultures
And her legacy lived on in more modern societies
In the Western world today, we celebrate Easter
and have long forgotten where our iconic symbols originated from
Surely it's a lot of fun to color Easter eggs
But it has little to do with...

Manfestion of thoughts
They say if you can teach one, just imagine teaching a million 👏 NOW that you are a student, I want you to focus your energy, with your ability to manifest your deepest thoughts. Just concentrate your thoughts, as you inhale and exhale slowly and methodically thinking, about what is your true spiritual subconsciousness. FOR sure you have the ability for manfestion of which, you desire to see and behold through your third eye. 👁️ What are you thinking about as you stand upon the still water, beneath your feet, what do you wish for in this hypnotic atmosphere, as this is...

BAPTISM IN THE SPIRIT
Baptism in the spirit
you can't from kin inherit.
It can only be given
by the Father in Heaven,
who sees you have repented,
your life to him presented.
Nothing else can be your plea
than his Son shed blood for thee.

Fastball - My Spiritual Awakening through Baseball
I can hit the fastball
But I really want to hit the slider
Same thing in writing verse
The erotic comes easy
but my own core emotions
always leave me wanting more
fom myself
So, no erotic poems this morning
Going back to the basics
My need to write
I hope you will let me in
Even though I have been hard on you
I'm not a bad guy
And I don't spit too much
When I'm at the plate
But I really want to hit the slider
Same thing in writing verse
The erotic comes easy
but my own core emotions
always leave me wanting more
fom myself
So, no erotic poems this morning
Going back to the basics
My need to write
I hope you will let me in
Even though I have been hard on you
I'm not a bad guy
And I don't spit too much

myth of the myth
do you think the Phoenix
does not mourn the loss
of all that came before
flaming feathers
an agony of memory
as they burn to cinders
remembering...
remembering...
& do you not believe
they remember
everything
each moment
beautiful & broken
in those previous days
aching...
choking...
keening their pain
into smoke-filled skies
lungs thick with ash
voice hoarse & ragged
echoing...echoing...echoing
into haunted silence

I. Ishvara
my beloved one
will you carry me
help me surrender
to this life's destiny
what is this existence
is it simply a daydream
the phantasy of a seraph
the shadow of the rainbow
the inkling and the twinkling
in the blink of an all seeing eye
will you remain a mysterious why
reveal yourself and lead me, please
retrace the course back to its source
to end in innocence and divine peace
help me remember the beauty of life
help me surrender to the unknown
guide me to the garden...

Paradox
do we exist
or it's just a dream...?
when you become 'aware'
of your being,
you'll find yourself
at an intersection of two circles
representing reality and illusion;
the place they smudge
is a mental haze-
misty and mystique,
familiar yet unfamiliar.
a strange realm
where unknown overlaps known.
you can't evaluate your own existence,
you can't define your subsistence.
is our life real,
or a paradox
just like schrödinger's cat ...

Augury
I could see the pain in her eyes
For the things that she used to tell
And for the many that she kept to herself
People her time were built different
Like strongholds of resilience and secrets
Every now and then
I’d get a glimpse of the world she came from
She knew that old ghosts sometimes come back
Not to haunt
But try to stir you away from the current path
And yet, she always remained stoic
Death and spirits tend to have that effect on some people
For her
It was a way of life
Because even though now she...
