In quiet solitude
    on an autumn night
    i drifted through
    a quotidian quagmire.

fleeting thoughts of stillness
    sparked a quest
    for transcendence

Had an epiphany this morning and yet, the screeching and scratching of the voices is always at hand.

The only thing I can trust this day and age is the walls talking to me. Ceremoniously, I want my consciousness to die.

Alas, it lies wake and unfolds...

I felt for him such sympathy
Because too late he had the epiphany
Of realizing just what a good thing he had
After she left him for being treated so bad

Sometimes the light comes on too late
The epiphany only magnifies our mistake
The question is, “Was the lesson learned”
Or,...

A sound of silence veers its head
Staring blankly into obscure delight
A recognizable face appears in the light
Inward laughter—fed

Never heard it this loud before
Something shifts on volume low
The majority has become the foe
Even words—they ignore

No one needs to understand
For all is heard within
All they need is...

He went in for a six-pack,
and came out with a smile

His heart reawakened,
the old lady—a child

A broad incision I'll lay across arms
Spelling what will be of us
Two expelling the third I've known
But at what real cost does it come?
Will Third be settled as is dead?
Or forever be a slient secret?

magnetised palms and tingling feet
collaborate with our third eye
moon and the sun bring forth cool heat
toroidal heart lets out a sigh

present in the eternal now
the vast...

Vast grace…
Infinity stars and galaxies
Of glory and praise
Joy
Jubilant 
Desire 
Humility
Hopefulness
Unity 
Peace
Happiness
Cheer
No fear
No tears
The Kingdom of unconditional clarity and love
Speak words of love from abuv
Roam home
Roam Home
Hold you dearly
Never let go
Insecure…
Then, I feel good
Misunderstood,
But good in the hood
Shook brook I cry,
Then it dries in laughter
I’m...

“Woke”, past tense of “awake”,
It is generally thought that,
This is a good thing,
My worst nightmares begin,
At that point.

If being “awake” means ignoring,
Reality at another’s behest,
It’s intolerable.

Allow the thoughts of others,
Permeate my mind,
So I Might wade into the pool of diversity.

Do not deny myriad creative thought,
And...

Epiphany

I’ve had two major epiphanies in my life,
And I figure three is all we really get.
So far they are following a pattern
Of thesis/antithesis
So I assume the third will be some kind of synthesis.

The first involved pain.
When I broke my femur...
