STOP LOOKING!
Stop looking for it
The solutions to your problems
Are all around you
They always have been
They always will be
Stop looking for them
For the love of everything
And everyone you hold dear
Stop looking!
The solutions to your problems
Are all around you
They always have been
They always will be
Stop looking for them
For the love of everything
And everyone you hold dear
Stop looking!

salt rings.
I see you slumbering
the lights are flickering,
your shoulders shuddering
& their eyes smothering.
Suffering is mumbling
as your body stays hovering,
hearing echoes of all your
sleeping in this awakening.
the lights are flickering,
your shoulders shuddering
& their eyes smothering.
Suffering is mumbling
as your body stays hovering,
hearing echoes of all your
sleeping in this awakening.

Be an Angel
we all are blessed to be angels
but we take pride to be just humans,
When the pride breaks at the first sint of trouble,
we run around looking for gods ignoring the voices
within,
listen to blessing from the tranquillity of grace that shines in warmth of faith,
Rather sleeping on the victory of our ego ,
acknowledge the blessing of divine that is shared for the humble. Each suffering encourage the truth out from the soul, many cracks out and some broke apart from inside and some observes their shells been disown,
Blessed are the ones that take joy...
but we take pride to be just humans,
When the pride breaks at the first sint of trouble,
we run around looking for gods ignoring the voices
within,
listen to blessing from the tranquillity of grace that shines in warmth of faith,
Rather sleeping on the victory of our ego ,
acknowledge the blessing of divine that is shared for the humble. Each suffering encourage the truth out from the soul, many cracks out and some broke apart from inside and some observes their shells been disown,
Blessed are the ones that take joy...

The Good Life
Early Morning
On the Sea of Cortez
A humble fisherman
Prepares his line
To lure a fish
Into the boat
To feed his family
He lives simply
So that others
May simply live
On the Sea of Cortez
A humble fisherman
Prepares his line
To lure a fish

He lives simply

Ambience
breathing in
and out and in
every moment
we begin
all that was
and all to come...
we are now
and all is one
pool of life
with beings who
are breathing in
exhaling too
it's the rhythm
we all share
in this place
and everywhere
mind to mind
telepathy
heart to heart
from you to me
we are more
than who we think
we're all joined
we're all linked
breathing in
and out and in
every moment
as we begin
all that was

Goddess Of Poetry
Steeped in heat of The Write
wading into foul weathered night
she's waiting out the storm;
calm in calamity's din her norm
Taking a Stand against Titans
is this Goddess's cup of tea
She drinks it all in
while handcrafting Poetry
certain to survive Time's test
Unlike her detestable predecessors
and those who've followed since
who were never smart enough
not to piss their best poorly phrased
philosophical rants into the wind

Reboot
The mastery over self is the ability to reboot.
It is an act to be human when the vibe of indifference exists.
Steps to be followed:
- Think of the innocence smile, someone beyond your family
- Think of the reason, last time you had soulful smile
- Think of that person whom you made smile
- Think of the persons whose smile you could preserve
- Think of an idea, sure to trigger smile
Now close your eyes
Remember the last photograph, you got a nice smile
If abled, rebooting completed
Now...

Realization
in the embrace of the trees
and the mountains
rain coming down
like celestial fountains
dripping and splashing
and soaking the ground
no one's alone
there's life all around
exchanging the air
we breathe in and out
with the green beings
who turn it about
carbon dioxide
for oxygen please
a supplication
to all of the trees
a bird in the forest
makes a loud sound
mycelium's growing
just underground
microbes in bedrock
microbes in me
we're all related ...

That one game
So I decide to show up to the bubble show. I make eye contact with those green eyes as the little rusty bell sounds my entry. A smile and a wink I approach with a smooth confident stroll. The look on your face, amused and confused. As I lean on the counter the only thing that separated us. You pose your self for an incoming kiss. I lean in close, close enough for a kiss. I whisper softly in your ear lets play some pinball setting a rusty quarter down inviting you to play. Locking eyes in a romantic daze you giggle and say its fifty cents a play. Lol

Love One Another
independent sons
surpass my everything
future is yours
make it mean something
ignore the racism
that flows around
be true to all
get to know people
never judge
a book by the cover
positive surge
love one another
writing words
I’m no John Lennon
just imagine
M.L.K.’s dream
equality for everyone
a better world
no discrimination
of race or gender
never judge
a book by the cover
positive surge
love one another
forget slogans
embrace differences ...

2002 The Two
The turbulent two
Sweet little lambs
The screamer, the whiner
Small sticky hands
I want what she has
He took my toy
Do you want a cookie?
A girl and a boy
Sweet little lambs
The screamer, the whiner
Small sticky hands
I want what she has
He took my toy
Do you want a cookie?
A girl and a boy
