Best Cognition Poems
Re-CognitionFrom thought has risen
time-space warp prison;
so if we be still,
we regain soul’s will.
Poised in the void thus,
love and light fills us,
which was always there
but now we’re aware.
Vibrant nonchalance
ends fear dalliance
and as the bliss flame,
we play out life’s game.
Mind-body vessel,
is our soul’s vassal.
When both are...

Halcyon CognitionI sit still…
Learning life through observation…
Instinct wise serpents allow change to flow…
Growing slowly, shedding skin rebirthing new…
One with purpose, not thinking; being circling cycles of energy…
Resistance absent; serpents seeking sun releasing old allowing new…
Part of the whole…
I sit still…
Watching the old parking garage…
Rusting metal...

Re-cognitionOn an as is where is basis, let’s accept
ourself as consciousness as this body-mind,
recognising we’re limited and inept,
floundering about through life, as do the blind,
fears and desires unable to intercept,
yet hope that truth of our soul will be divined.
It’s clear we need to slow down...

Re-Cognition
During lucid dreams, we respond
without forging therein a bond
with any creature, place or thing,
nonchalant to what thought streams bring.
Awake within the dream, we’re still,
playing our role, as of God’s will;
although ego trace does remain,
our childlike heart is free from stain.
Waking state’s another matter,
for here there’s...

Pratyabhijna: Pathless Path of Re-CognitionRamana’s inquiry: Who am I?
Where ‘I’ eternal, not merely mind-body
Nor fleeting, fickle emotions that make us sigh
Where then lies fulcrum of consciousness immediacy
Beginning with the here and now this-ness of our identity
We recognise between head and heart, divergence
Love, the catalyst, aligning both in...

Life In Cognitionwe forever prepare
cognition to understand
this prism of life
to cognize the greys
of strewn spectrums...that shine clear
with color so rife
there is something and
nothing being in meaning
of any one's strife
observers are a
self realized consciousness
perception of life...

Re-Cognitionwhat we seek
love and light
is within
to know this
sans thought flow

form and void
both are one
living light

Pratyabhijna Or Re-CognitionGoing not into graphic detail
Of what the scriptures entail
For each meditation
Upon its delineation
An inscrutable mystery
A fathomless trajectory
Meant for that one spiritual explorer alone
Words mere symbols not etched in stone
It is the subtle essence
Of the divine fragrance
Imbibed in stillness & silence
Assimilated in trusting innocence
That...

CognitionYou are beloved , eclipseing all of men
removing from us errors , and took all us in
you could see beyond soil, which covered all of we
and when we were uncovered , the fruit that we could be
You see beyond the fascades we have constructed

Re-CognitionAt any given instant
That that is constant
Is formless I Am awareness
Experiencing in-form consciousness
As it’s own outward turned attention
Feeling the pulse of union & separation
Within fleeting duality
Encasing the one singularity
A Divine entwined caress
In the endless sea of bliss
At any given instant...

Ink and PaperWith awkward reach
the strike of the pen has tipped the ink well
splattering onto white paper,
vanquishing the lyrics from the poet’s pen,
scribbling vignettes of joy or strife,
little stories-a slice of life.
His pen shall not find its perfect labor
scribed upon this miscued, defaced paper
to define his words...

Intellectual SnobberyWhen I was in grade school
I was, already,
on my leftbrain dominant path
toward acting the intellectual snob.
This, in large part
my best offense,
my trump card, sadly,
against marginalizing prejudice
of our community's non-farmer economic
and political Elite;
The few kids
whose parents went to college
and/or inherited some above-the-norm property
business, preferably not...

reelectionI’m so excited about this election
about America and our direction
We’ll trust old men
to make big decisions
elderly men
of compassion and vision
Men who were there
when the work was done
when we went to the moon
and warred in Vietnam
A glorious age is at hand
we’ll be safe in those trembling...
