54. In troubled times

Afraid to ask...still
Harder for some
Because you care
Not to step...too heavily
Major blockage
Tell you what
You're afraid to look
At yourself now
In case you fall
If you keep yourself down
You think
The bottom won't be
Such a long drop
Ready for failure
While striving for heights
Is the cause...of your demise
Make ready for the success
That toil has prepared
For toil alone
Has little direction
The toil comes only
In making ready

25. Love life

It is trauma
‘The’ trauma...has killed you
Now you will look
There is some one thing
That has been taken from you
There is no "why?"
You understand
To have it again
You must love life

Have a spectacle
An illusion...of sorts
Days gone by
Brought lighting
To form
A love for words
To speak
From depth
Of depth
You cannot fall
It is high...in its depth
To know where you are
You only know
Where others are not
Where few have been
Where you've not been before
What you do with yourself
In this place
The here and now
Welcome back...
The here and now
Holds many surprises
You will see
They will come to you
They know where to find you
They are coming
You sense their vibration
"I sense their presence"
`Make yourself known' I say
Half expecting...half wary
I do not wish to be too bold
I wonder if I'd speak a wrong word
They may take me wrongly

27. Real dreams

You must, you must
There is much happenings
Right now
Catch it in the act
That is why
Here and now
Is the only place to be
For while your back was turned
To fantasy
Your mind you took
To `see' those dreams
Those desires
Of pure empty
Daydreams you know
Real dreams to learn...
Matter...next time
A flame...of true passion
Know the passion
There...is real dreams

28. An essence to inhale

A lot of work
This life...to find
An arrow...darting
To touch everything
Before it is dark
An essence to inhale
The things of this world
Are many...as the stars
Are countless
With new ones
Forever forming
The victory...of the brave

29. Life as it should be

Life as it should be
What is that?
The way it is
Does not satisfy
What is it you want then?
Feel it!...
The time to preconceive
What you want...
There is fashion
Going along
Sort of to the left
On another track
Is where I want to be
The track looks more stable
And consistent
Than the one I am on
Switch tracks please
I wish to be
Over there
I will go where I please
It is too new
For many
Only those ready
May come with me

30. The friend

To share
Mon cher
The friend
Has words
Worth hearing

31. Loving your body

Let it drift away
To come back
See it anew
The dimples
And crevices
They belong
To you
It is a friend
Not to be ignored
Talk to it as such
Let it respond
It is not a fight
There should be
No enemies
To battle
See potential
See love
In its being
As a puppy
Training
Will start
As awareness
Increases
In time

Top

The half-perfect heart...Which half is perfect?

32. Back to the heart

Now the eve
Is pressing
You to forget
Whence you came
To see shadows
That show the light
Given one
That is you
Given back
It is truth...
Follow the eye
A line
It will trace
To show you the way
Back to the heart
Give up on the ghosts
That haunt
And taunt
To tease you with
‘Should have beens’
Things done
Were the way
To sea
Refresh yourself here
The battle won
Discard the armor
The hardness
You saved
For fear
It is gone

33. Money

Money takes pride of self
To conform its own
Means and end
To chase after it
Will bring death
To your ignoble character
Chase instead
Love of life
Proof of desire
Money is not to be sought after
You'll learn
The other makes
More than money can afford
Delinquent stuff
If handled wrongly
Give up the chase
Look out
For the other...
Out there
In looking
It comes
To secrete
A lemma
Sweet droplets
As honey suckled
Enough to satisfy
The craving soul
It craves forever
The elixir of life
See it satisfied
And it will cease
To assail you

34. Laughing at the stream

Laughing, yes
To sillyness
We know it runs from nothing
Stay here some time
And we'll make a pool
For you
To watch us swim in

35. Joining thoughts

To join the thoughts
Before obscure
With life in me
We now abide together
The right and left unite...
No problems come to mind
To know you
Still intrigues me
I'm born of light
Which has new meaning
Give me night I will still see...
Wisdom they say
From decision comes
With knowledge
Not far behind...
Take anew this life
Surrender naught
For love or money
Let others walk
Their choice
To be near you...

There is a time
Of sadness
Losing your misery
That's kept you
One companion
Of un-desire
To cover up
Your fear to face
Extreme opposing
Sides in you
The shades of `M'
Can now be lifted
The light has come
To take its place
Life in the light
Unknown by many
A new, a fresh
Paper to write on
This paper takes no sad words
To lose you
In an awful space
One leg behind you
One in front
The picture speaks
For itself.

36. Yours words are alive

A slave to freedom 
Faces all, in kind 
Come away from that 
Which beckons 
Unceasingly good

The choice 
You have shown 
To avenge
The lies 
You have proven 
More worthy 
Than you know 
The strength 
You have learned 
And praises from within 
Clamber and climb 
To exalt you 
Like a ...a voice exploding 
From deep within 
A well 
Heard for the first time 
By many 
Who before 
Heard 
Just a noise...a voice 
That belongs 
To you 
Your own trumpet 
Your own notes 
There's no mistaking 
It's you 
You can talk 
With vibration 
Even the trees 
Will hear you 
And respond 
Your words are alive.

Top

The pale moon
Faces the east 
On this night
Of sorrow 
Once forgotten 
Is held now
To remind you 
Forever passing 
Failing to subdue 
Little one's sobs...and tears 
Seeking justice 
From the blind 
They chose not to see 
Yet call for more light 
On their path
... 
Keep your thought pure 
No food 
For wicked things 
Laugh at them 
In their folly 
To keep from you 
The hungry wolf...of guilt 
You were not born 
To wear this badge 
The wolf will follow 
Heap the black eyes 
Some foolishness 
For it waits 
To watch 
You fear 
It's breath 
It's wretched mind 
Wants...a joy
To kill.

38. A life for me

If ever I see 
A life for me 
To woo a thought 
Of my desire 
Take space 
And form 
Intense fire

39. The roots of spade

The choice 
Of life today 
Says `I call'
... 
The game played 
It's last round 
My hand had cards 
Some were faded 
And torn 
I knew the spots 
Of go-between 
The roots of spade 
Show true 
The choice to call 
No bluff...or winks 
Too late 
For others 
Who wait 
For perfect cards 
I play now 
With trust 
In what I've got.

TRUST IN WHAT I'VE GOT

Yield at the darkness 
The fight is not yours 
Nor is it over 
Let the light 
Have its way 
To procure 
And hold 
The essence 
Of darkness... 
Your part 
Is to show the place 
Where black resides 
And look the other way 
Tin hurt
Like love gone bad 
It's hard 
To mouth the words 
That stop the pain 
Your joy will be 
That you've done your part

41. Jewels in the sand

Jewels in the sand 
Are they for me? 
Cleansed of agastion (ghastly things) 
I will acceptance 
To cut the course 
Of cords that bind 
The effort lasting 
Since to me 
I shout...Hooray! 
And many times 
Say thanks

The tears now 
Are of brightness 
In the eye 
To hold them in my hand 
I feel a peaceful power 
Which surrounds me 
For miles 
As far as a thought? 
Can go? 
My thoughts have power 
Of this 
I will learn..

42. A job of life

Set unto me 
A job of life 
Give me a chance 
To show you 
Of my love for you 
My best things are yours 
Have a real good time 
Expressing yourself 
I will expect to see you 
In a moment 
Which is now.

43. Many people, many ways

I am guardian of my life 
Like the soap dispels dirt 
By its natural state 
I choose to make known 
My love for attuning 
That which is unpursed 
In accordance with 
What's left me 
I am coming into Havershine 
Say good-bye to Etheria 
Which laws make me? 
I know write from ... 
The heart 
Give me simple things 
I will show you 
The thought behind
What you see 
There are as many ways 
As people 
To look upon an act 
Though none is better 

44. Green tongues

I see a morning 
Wake me with delight 
Crimson is the color 
I choose today 
See green tongues wearing 
Such a lovely hue 
Too bad it's lost its color 
Or is hidden by their words.

There is another part of me 
It makes me shake and quiver 
In the shade of my soul 
It wants to be known 
But...I scare myself 
The thought of it 
Yet it's only a dream
... 
A nightmare of sorts 
It shows me...of my love for life 
No yielding of its power 
No waiting 
If I catch my breath
... 
The vision is of a road 
It is a motion 
So far in the distance 
Yet its radiance reaches me 
Surrounding me 
And beyond me 
I cannot run to meet it 
I must stand 
And show my face 
I see it will not harm me 
Though hiding heads my thoughts 
Ashamed I feel 
For what I do not know 
Maybe for mistakes I've made
... 
But wait! 
It's come to love me 
It wants to take my hand 
To touch me 
It wants to touch me
...

46. That part of me

Who will protect me? 
From the evil...that others do? 
That part of me 
Seems to be on their side 
The battle begins 
What started this fight 
Of sides in me? 
The part I despise 
As it laughs at me 
I wish I knew it 
At the source 
I want to destroy it
... 
But, now I wonder 
Can it be changed? 
To destroy it 
‘I’ would be destroyed 
What must I do? 
I see it now 
Like a bad child 
It is looking at me 
It knows to stand still 
I am going over to it 
It is shaking 
And wants to avoid my eyes 
I feel anguished by its actions 
Which have heaped great misery upon my life 
"There is no need for childish things" I say 
He looks down 
While he is looking down 
I see that part of me...transform 
As he looks up...he is beaming 
I watch him run...and frolic in his freedom 
Until he is out of sight 
That part of me.

If you want a spice 
I will smile 
And let you in 
The pass 
For traverse 
Can lead you 
If a mountain 
Surreally goes up the wall 
May climb...at will 
You spake...and heed 
You are...the friend 
Who chase you 
So much 
But not 
Because to hurt 
Mais, just to see 
One as you 
Perhaps...your fear 
In dreams 
Is what they want 
From you...in your life 
They want 
You can give 
Something 
Give them 
They want something 
And 
You have it 
To give
...
Antau 
You'll be free 
Give antau 
The kiss of life 
You give.

Who am I? 
You now ask 
Most are content 
To just be... 
You have filled 
Your loins 
Bore fruit 
Became a tree 
Inspired 
Transpired 
Loved 
And touched 
Hated 
And alienated 
So, who are you? 
Who knows? 
The Queen of Sheba? 
Who is anyone? ... 
You are life ... 
Some good news 
The mind is more open 
That is the difference 
Keep the mind open.

49. Forgive the child

I am ready 
To use my power 
Those who dare 
Come across my path 
Only to beat me 
I will forgive 
The child in them 
But, not their cause.

The force of love 
Is strong 
In you 
Have peace 
And time 
Allot an end 
To triumph 
Your question 
Unearthed

51. The higher thought

So for me 
Dissuade my child 
You spoke of things 
Only a god would know 
Yet, here it is 
The flame of youth 
Passing through 
The thoughts in your memories 
They stand still...they revere 
The higher thought 
It passes them all 
It has come from beyond 
To take its place 
At the front of your mind 
Your fear is at the newness 
Of having something 
You've not had before 
It is a gift 
It will prove itself.

Once you face the truth 
Gyp stones right away 
For it comes to press you 
In accordance with the law 
It makes you quiver inside 
For you did not want to see
What truth laid bare 
It surrounds you 
Yet it does not hurt 
As you thought 
You must have known 
Not a lot to deal with 
Just knowing the truth 
Yet there is refreshment...in it 
The lines can be defined 
To know truth 
You know the lies... 
You are all to trust 
In your own self alone 
From there it all comes 
And you can see it 
For what it is 
You are ready 
To ‘see’ 
More truth.

Top

Belief in yourself 
Breaks tears
In your eyes 
Unclear 
And unfair 
Understand nothing... 
Make a bed 
To lie 
Your little self down 
A primrose 
Sought after late 
To comfort 
And appease 
The part you ignore 
Demands attention 
Saying 
`Look at me' 
`I' `am here' 
`I just am' 
You will know it

54. In troubled times

In troubled times 
I have no doubt 
It is upon me 
While others rejoice 
The fox I pray 
Escapes my grasp 
It is hard 
To think of myself 
And others 
At the same time.
