Best Transversing Poems
Only LeavesOnly Leaves
Their numbers are overwhelming
golden and brown transversing my path.
I abandon every one in each step forward.
Green lives, lived,finally
fallen to the battlefield of my morning walk,
some burning red, the last fire extinguished.
Others are dry and crisp,
burnt toast of maples,
drifting and rolling as Mariah scoots...

Joy of Poetic DeathI will die if I wake up in a dream
and find myself on the page of a book.
I will die if I wake up
and find this is a dream.
I will die...

Reaching the Third Level
To reach nirvana
Poet paradise
You have to reach the third level
It's a journey to forever
It may take some their whole lifetime,
and others may never get there
It's a quantum leap
fraught with uncertainty
First it takes writing skill,
then an inexhaustible will
and finally, untapped creativity
The first level is easy
Most anyone...

Dramatic Monologue
All the World's a StageAll The World's A Stage
You'd better believe it
Each Act encircles
daily excursions circumstantially
transversing through eternity.
Conversations comprise
realms of performances
pestered with dalliances
circumventing stratospheres.
You surmise it's
not a dream,
but utopian reality
as you project your image
into telescopic
Karmic repercussions
drifting through sequential
blockades of hurdles
terminating serenity.
Peacefulness serenades auras
of dancing mistruths
utilized to perfection
under lights.
You take...

Deep Listening Sacred EcologyDeep Listening is integral and creative;
learning to listen in an organically sacred context.
It works most effectively when we,
and our teams,
and families
and EarthTribe sacred species,
trust our cooperatively shared environment,
so everybody can venture outside ego's inside tiniest range of discomfort
to actively engage self/other co-empathic remediation.
It grows...

I Am Determined To Be HeardI'm determined to be heard
Through the walls
Beyond all That
Deafening windfall
My voice never deterred
Tasking freedom
dispensing wisdom
Offering up hope
I am the force, overheard
A solid speaker for the mute
Constant presence for the Word
I shall reverberate the hurt
You will feel the guilt
In your...

Starman *
Streaming dust specks of his aura left as evidence
A celestial being formed of stardust *
To adorn him any less of his scintillating charm,
his signature star walk, or shimmering trails, *
I’d need to resign to an asylum to deny a twilight of stars
To...

Burning: a Dream In MadnessBurning snow falls quietly on
cold rusted wire and brittle bone.
An ancient creature looks to the horizon
feeling is body built of razor wire and old bones, cold,
a delicate tone transmits from on far...
Wraiths walking in the burning
snows depths, as it falls, it drifts...
In eyes...

Blood and SweatThe tirade of the tyrant
Has subdued the trident
Gloating over the viceroy
It's the blood and sweat of
victory.
The subdued voice of defeat
Veiled in unapologetic defiance
Shedding secret tears of what could
have been?
What would have been in the hood
It's the defeat drenched...

Lady Liberty The Giftappears a Roman goddess
halo affects adorn as spears on a diadem
Her torch enlightens the world
flames are gilded in 24K gold
reflecting the sun's rays, looming She is not
for the floodlights illumine night’s darkest hours
the French had created Her
Americans built Her a concrete pillar

Indigo Iiwalking down a one-way path
straight with the moon over one shoulder
following the tracks
as they lead into the horizon
following the faded imagery
as I stray in life
the dark woods are thick solid cobalt
lights twinkle deep in the woods
lights so...

Never Being Accursed By WordsSoul, still drifting in the subtle calmness,
undaunted and adamant;
never being effected by malicious intent,
never being accursed by words...
Use extreme caution when transversing boundaries
of strange lands inhabited by mediums,
who are the seers that wish to replace God;
accept no invitation by affirming their cult...
Wise heart,, live...

Knights of QiKnights of Qi
White steeds galloping along a lonely path
galloping a thousand miles into the grave of the undead
Where deeds are done with anonymous returns
They were like nebulous things.
when heaven and earth were birthed
So they were, without form
a thousand li into the sea
Roaring in thunderous roars

The Supreme Power of LightIn an auditorium, a gymnasium, or a stadium full of people in complete darkness will all see the lighting of a candle.
From the endless fathoms of space in all the universes, no force can grasp, stop, or attach to it a handle.
Nothing known can maintain...
