Absorbance Poems | Examples


Future Gifts

To be Vessels of Selflessness
we're understanding that
through birth is our future unfolding;
carried upon the shoulders of guiltlessness;
through minds of inoffensiveness;
embraced by hands of innocuousness
and immersion..

In..

a world weaved through universal beholding;
we're creating with a heartfelt devotion;
touched by soul-moving adoration;
passing timeless connection;
for non-religious veneration
and amazement..

With..

our Beings' undeniable amorous Calling;
by the realization of the perceptual embodiment
of our Souls inevitable arbitraments
through their final awakenments
and remembrance of commitment
and loyalty..

To..

this place of Love and Belonging;
of immense transcended integrity.
That through deep Soulmate equality
we embedded Love as limitless security
for our children's souls immortality
and balance..

That..

They may Rise through their life's Morning;
safely see with a clear sighted acceptance.
Hear the Universe's never-ending resonance;
breathe the Now's vast guidance
of each moments healing absorbance
and recognition..

They are each Individual One's
and gifts of Love

Silence As Friend
                       by Odin Roark

We noisy ones
From bathinette ducky splash
To deep end cannonball flood
Passing from school yard horseplay
To boardroom P & L tantrums


The journey seems long
Knowing well
Noise receives attention
And encouragement

Just as hate remains impatient
Love 
Like winter snowfall
Clings to trees and branch
Awaiting exhaustion before
Absorbance reaches its time

Such is the quietude of arrival
Where stormy expression
Finally worn of course
Renders our epiphany clear

Sometimes

We learn too late
The need to quiet the self
Discover that inner peace
Where noises of life
Skittle to ground
Mere timpani-tainted dust specks
Needing only to retire their chaos

Often

For others
The finding of such stillness
Is to know the healing quietness
Of inner tears coating our wounds
Flooding liquid light into heretofore darkness
Relegating shadows into the wings

The fortunate

Surround themselves
With arrival’s hush
While many of habitual clinging
Continue to fill the void with noise
Having yet to discover
Silence as friend

Blind Sight and the Furnaces of Hell

Smear the sight
Grope the socket
Cleave the eyeball
Do you get it yet?
Smash out the eyes!
No one wants to see
All are blind anyways
To the pain and death of others
Greed, deep running self-absorbance
 Hush now, look away
Pretend not to see
 That light that leaves the young one’s eyes 
As she slips away into death
It’s not like the child was important to you 
Anyways 
And I scream
we all shall rot in the Furnaces together!
Of are we already
There?
Here?
