I've fallen
into a torpor pit
swirling blackness
seals my lips
I close my eyes
but all I see is me,
Disengaged
Deranged
there is no reason
for this smothering gray.

I feel your hands
but they don't penetrate,
Your breath is sweet upon my face,
laughter comes from another place,
this silence remains my only respite,
My words are stifled
in my chest,
My poetry shoots blanks
where ever I tread.

Motivation is a thing
of the past,
Desire's gone at last,
Being is all that's
left within my grasp.

Lavender love in
technicolor plays
out on a screen,
Life travels on the
wisps of Monarch wings -
Breathe heavy and
hot,
Breathe light and cold,
My words they freeze
when they hit the snow.

I know dances unfold,
But no dance partner knows
the darkness that's become my
trembling soul.

It is to this enclave
I go
from time to time,
the winds outside
still howl my name,
While demons
bang on the walls
of my shame.

Call it a mood,
Call it a funk,
Call it the blues,

Sometimes
these holes just open,
Inside I go,
No ladder
only a shovel
wouldn't you know.

Doors without keys,
Echoes without sounds,
And all there is
is
the
darkness
I
have constructed
all around.

Sometimes things go as planned
Other times things turn out unexpectedly
We then have to take the good with the bad
because that's life
not every thing is scheduled and planned
like a sudden sickness or emergency or injury
time like that it is helpful to take the hand of a family member
or friend, and pray for the best
We all know at times life can be a test

It helps  to do your best to think positive when it seems that you are faced with the worst
You can sometimes get stronger from things unplanned
Some great things that are unplanned are a Surprise visit from a family member you love
Or a unexpected visit with a friend
Or a pleasant and unexpected phone call or message
The pleasant unplanned moment's can help you get through
the difficult unplanned times of life
I hold the pleasant unplanned moments close to my heart
It makes life worth living  after all
My original planned birthday plans had  fallen apart, but led to a surprise although brief visit from my daughter, and later watching a movie with my neighbor friend.

you bashed out your songs
and they spoke of what I could not
A rebellious teen-ager
dumb struck and hoarse

The beginning and the end,

Alpha and Omega,

The chaos and the silence.

I am you and you are me

We are the same but totally different.

We all have in ourselves the power to change the world

The power to do good and at the same time bad.

You can help or destroy,

Protect or attack

Understand or blame

Love or hate.

The choice is yours,

But the consequences you'll have to endure.

Time and place will make you choose;

The game is yours to win or lose.

I
I
cry for peace
for the love of God.
tears push through my lashes
I see the truth, clearly now,
the only discovery, myself.

I
smile at the grey sky
laugh with the thunder
of Earth, of our souls.
embracing the clouds that
keep us cool, and with water.
grey clouds used to
bog me down, like a lead foot,
held to the ground.
to have eyes to see through those
clouds,
to see you and me and our Sun.
she greeted me this morning.
I cry.

I cry for every I love you,
every embrace,
each new bond created,
all weaknesses overcome.
I cry for God, the tears of love.
the tears of the clouds.
my body combining con del mar
lifted high above, released on skin.
lighten the load, cleanse the core.

I cry, I release my God essence
back
to the whole, never disconnected,
loaner tears.
never mine to share
nor mine to keep in,

I've come out, deliverance desired.
my tears rush out, overwhelmed
I have nothing to offer, we are one.
all I know, you have. I am you too.
self realized, patterns breaking.
consistency is the key.
I walk and I cry and I smile and I laugh and I love
I love. the specifics of source
only to be understood at
reunification, and so I walk
and I cry, beyond faith,
into the truth of God.
The Art of Poetic Creation and Inspiration is necessary for the World to detach from the Trickster Mind lying all the time to us and others, distorting perception of reality and sustaining our false ego, causing innumerable troubles.

Through Art and Poetry we develop the higher Intuitive Mind. The only place I know bearable enough to exist within.
