Short Rispetto Poems

Love is actually a mental illness
Bi-polar and life consuming
Breathes taken and eyes crying
until there is no more
Stabbing and gnawing pain in
the blackest darkest depths
until you are no more..
You are reborn anew..you...

Dimension wave carry my charge
Tone to me minutes to wind
Triangle mines protect to roll

Diamond to enlist my work
Almond to eat may to rise...

I am safe in the arms of Jesus
Secure as I can be.
Satan's darts cannot harm me
In Jesus Christ I can flee.

His hands are underneath me
I need not slip or fall.
If He knows every hair of my head,
He knows my needs before I call....

in a bubble of unknowing
stupor we chose to celebrate
doing nothing gently flowing
feeling in-form chakras gyrate

renouncing thought of loss or gain
we invoked power of zero
thus breaking free of ego chain
in God’s eyes became a hero...

Eureka bliss continuum,
explodes concepts our mind clings to,
which sans ego residuum,

You may find your chances
Better taken with salt
Than making foolish advances
With only yourself to fault

Nothing gained from nothing to give
Do not die before you live...

I could change the world around me
I would begin by holding hands
With each new connection I feel
A surge of joy from other lands.

A worldly order we can play
Joining together we are one
Simple writing, Love has begun....

The ocean is his mistress
She has gotten under his skin.
He has changed his address
To the Gulf of Mexico. Can you imagine?

Than to live off shore.
He'll fish all day by radar
And lay out at night underneath the stars....

Blanket me with your presence
Love me today, my sweet
Let me bask in your essence
Make me feel complete.

I’ll give you all you desire
Starting from our love’s fire.
Drinking of each other’s wine
As I am yours and you are mine.

What is the source the lights the sun
and guides each planet’s rotation,
whose grace only by love is won

and rising thus become divine?...

throb of bliss is our claim to fame....

It’s not as though we lost our cool
without any reason at all;
the unschooled should follow this rule:

and smokers, we speak not in jest....

the truth of oneness becomes clear....

caresses us by night and day....

on our part giving love our nod,
leaving all outcomes up to God....

No risk of anyone coming to harm
A sense of relaxation gained

Breathe deeply and it will begin
A quiet state both outside and in
Allows for gentle contemplation
A natural flow of inspiration...

the third eye and our crown entwine;

feral instinct that’s self-serving,

imbibing bliss magnetism warm....

It’s enough to know that we’re not
merely this feeble body-mind
bemused by desires and fear fraught,
floundering through life, as though blind.

Since we don’t exist, who are we?

Ceasing thinking,  begin feeling,
caress of love, so appealing....
