Mothers of Invention, Deliver
Silence mourning, you who've borne no children;
mute derision and bear it no longer.
Beg not for mercy if you are barren
for barreness may prove you the stronger.
Your fruit lies in the way which you conquer
scorn - apparent un-productivity.
Another's offspring - your proclivity.
Teach them truths which bearers fail to mention;
teach self-discipline as necessity.
Deliver well, mothers...

The vaporised selfTo be just like him, smiling as he fell,
we set out to make void-centric soul’s stance,
assured that with God within, all is well,
so melding head with heart, we took a chance,
to turn toward love, our platonic glance.
With mind unfrozen, once heart was open,
magnetism manifested as chosen,
suffused with bliss heat, our vibrance upbeat,
we savoured soma...

Driving an old carProminent now are wrinkles on our skin,
signalling decay of organic form,
yet divine magnetism throbs deep within,
engulfing us in currents cool and warm,
conjuring magically a bliss storm.
We are light of Self, not this body-mind;
feel us as heart’s vibrance, loving and kind.
To navigate life, we dwell in this shell
but to truth of who we are, we’re not...

A Paschal PraiseThe Christ descended from His Father’s throne;
In dying on the cross, He conquered Hell.
Then He rolled away His sepulchral stone;
The sting of death would no longer prevail.
A glorious word of good news to tell!
His disciples worshipped in prostration
As they prepared in humble elation
To spread news of the resurrected King
Who paid the price of mankind’s salvation;
A...

What’s going on hereSelf as spirit wishes to feel contrast,
flowing as magnetism, each breath reborn,
so recognising that the die is cast
as we’re being meditated upon,
strobes of bliss thunder usher a new dawn.
Instrumentalising our lower mind,
leaving all imagined knowing behind,
in timeless time when single is our eye,
we behold soul’s light to which we were blind,
whence in the vibrant void...

Rainbow bodyTruth sounds like a believe it or not tale,
when interpreted by limited mind,
which can but offer a concoction stale
but if we leave conditioned thoughts behind,
light of wisdom we can in heart’s cave find.
We are not a this or that somebody;
we’re living light, with a rainbow body,
mirrored in form as the chakras seven,
beheld in clear sight...

We see it nowThe flame of awareness is held by God,
who is distanced from soul by the ego,
so to awaken in mind-body pod,
all beliefs and concepts, we must let go,
shifting into silence in stillness slow.
When released from fetters of lower mind,
on shifting to the heart, loving and kind,
garnering clear sight, we see our own light,
which always was but...

Secrets of The BreezeSecrets of The Breeze
A breeze, a playful inquisitive breeze,
Drifting over slippery slated roof tops,
Teasing the silent secretive trees.
Hearing murmurings in wind-blown corn crops
And rhythms of the pattering rain...

sage speakHave ye been touched not yet by magnetism,
ushering deep wisdom, unknown to mind,
rapture of bliss pervading body prism,
causing us to become with love aligned,
with fears and desires to the bin consigned?
Befriending silence, piercing the vast void,
the demons of darkness are then destroyed,
whereupon doing nothing we so see,
our true Self as light, shaped as a spheroid,
revealing...

OPEN AND CLOSED HEART-BEATS--As my soul heart has a door that is closed;
Noise speaks loudness of per encapsulates;
My vessel contrite I am breathing bruise;
Broke heart open door that I may embrace;
Tears drops down my chin, my cheek, my whole face;
Breaths distorts ultimately---placated;
My arms and hands grasp holds implicated;
Opening and shutting of my heart strings;
Serrated set heart strung constipated;

For The Life Of Me
God, for the life of me, I know not why
we have not learned a way to live in peace.
As in the past, our wars still nullify
this yearning by not finding ways to cease.
The feuds between world leaders still increase
to procure power as their sacred role-
care not that deaths become our painful toll!
How many more decades...

In Another Life
In another life I could be happy,
have no grief or forever sad sorrow,
would not have another day unhappy,
wish another life could be my 'morrow.
Would I still love the song of a sparrow ?
Oh, would I still be a poem writer ?
You see my life has made me a fighter,
with a fire burning bright...

Child born from water and fireI witnessed a body lying
On the dead earth while formless and dismal
A mire swollen and dying
From this body arose a child so small
Out of the flesh stinking of gall
A child whiter than a pearly lily
Who flew into paradise tranquilly
The foulness of flesh remained not
The child’s pureness left the world’s...

An Advent PraiseA joyous tiding on this hallowed night:
That for our sake, a virgin would conceive.
The Child would promise everlasting light
To all who in His saving love believe,
And for our sin we may no longer grieve.
Among the beasts was born this infant King
As choirs of angels came to dance and sing.
The shepherds marveled, the wise men rejoiced
And...
