Colouration Poems

Premium MemberNoumena and phenomena

Liken space as God,
as the womb of existence,
that’s in but not of the world.

Made in God’s image,
we transmit to Him by touch,
colouration of contrast.

the impulse of love
in whatever form
arising within
from source
observe
how it plays
shifts colouration
as contoured by ego

without any negation
we see conditioning
mitigate the elixir
of magnetism 
that heals
so we pause
cause of stupor
animating moments
with pristine uniqueness 

receptive to the offering

colouration of intent displaying love’s hue
flowing gently in mode embrace and release 
with no remote viewing of the past or the future
there being within soul no aspect that has a desire
save of course a burning yearning to entwine hearts
momentarily estranged owing to memory erasure
knowing not in active cognition truth of being
sentience numbed to pulsations of rapture 
borne by bliss magnetism at play within

with this recognition called upon to act
we cheerfully go through all the motions
of gentle persuasion employing love alone
as the medium of music setting up a rhythm
in vibrant nonchalance forecasting no outcome
flowing moment to moment enacting life’s role
attempting to hush the blush of pessimism
being but ripples created by lower mind
spawned by apprehensions of the ego

Premium MemberWho Am I

our awareness confined to body-mind
to navigate life our ego identity was born
to the truth of being, cognition remained blind 
thus what was boon now bane till ego was shorn

discarding all knowing including imagined concepts
silence layers silence until silence alone remains
realms, gods and boons the usual suspects 
colouration any, all these are chains

what emerges when duality ends
it is the absolute truth transcendental
no one comes, no one goes, no one ascends
it is a recognition of true being, beyond the mental

Limited

Speak, speak yes nobody
will listen to a sound
of yours and too your foot steps
if it means to be here
or there
because there is
something fake concerning 
a card that is blinking how
  and still oh!
for there is a blinking 
red light on, indicating
that there is a colouration
in electricity
could it be that is a way
noned, since
time immemorial
oh! you may dust
but not this daughter
for a straight 
line
boldly uncorruptible
and serve in truth and love.

Premium MemberThe Joy Continuum

awareness self aware
of dark veils of ignorance
shrouding our consciousness 
rotates polarity of sentience 
to view inner luminescence 

the offered enablement 
seen by periscope vision
is then scrutinised by ego
by jaundiced perception
in dimmed colouration 

once baton of awareness 
shifts into the void internal
we must rest our lower mind
trusting cognition spherical 
to behold God’s miracle 

for detachment complete
let us celebrate our delusion
resting our head at His feet
in continuum of meditation 
heart radiant in elation

looking around in wonder 
nestled in quiet contentment 
bliss in-pours as vibrant thunder
as we view life in astonishment 
delighting in soul unfoldment

African Kolanut

I see a seed of white colouration,
And pink pigmentation.
Manually easy to divide,
Not ritually difficult to provide.

I see the financially easy to handle,
A culturally accepted candle.
Announcer of a host’s good wishes,
Much more treasured than his dishes.

A proof of the giver’s honest intention
And summary of his cheerful disposition.
Alligator pepper is its errand boy,
Content to seem all through its toy:
Garden eggs readily surrendering its portfolio,
Their services adjusted relatively hollow.

Very correct to link it with West Africa
And just as flawless with The Tropical;

Consumer keep impressing its pleasant bitterness:
A continual patience with its induced giddiness…
The gods are served the best  kolanut
To have the mouth of Evil amazingly shut!

Premium MemberLove Is Life and Life Is Love

“Animate with love, each moment
Enhancing thus, our bliss quotient”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Awareness untouched by love is barren
Throb of love is our innate aliveness
Canvas we paint our own colouration
Let the music resonate lovingness 

Granted free will, thinking manifests life
Aiding alignment with love upon earth
Ego urges us to engage in strife
Whilst love blissful joy forever in mirth

Radiant emptiness bliss mist aglow
Abiding in this silence we are free
Feeling and colouring life as it flows
Each moment we renew our joy entrée 

Be mindful, oh hermit, embrace the now
Follow the scent of love, sweet and mellow

What is the void as in no-thingness
Wherein Shiva resides
As the pulse within in our emptiness 
In resonance we abide

Awareness & sentience of no-mind
Limited self vaporises
What upon empty space has a bind
As we behold surprises

It is form that being limited may feel
Magnetism within rising
Cognisant of ecstasy in full appeal
The life current vivifying 

Meditating thus in continuity 
Unifying with Shiva a certainty 

We may if we wish, tweak this meditation
Assigning initially to the void a colouration 
The masters propose the colour blue
Dwelling upon it our stillness we renew
Slowly allowing the colour to fade
Whereupon we enter Shivas formless glade

Clear recognition in an unbroken continuation
That a God consciousness is the only real vibration
Thus pure thought rising
Not the illusionary ego craving
Nor is any lower thought
Ego begot
For the source of all energy
With which illusionary form may or may not be in synergy 
Is God consciousness 
The That Oneness

This clear recognition as flicker free awareness
Transmutes all lower impulses into divine consciousness 
Thoughts too change their colouration
Magically transformed by single pointed devotion
Void & manifestation and any in between transience
All that is flowing from God exclaims our innocence!

The path of devotion 
Quelling all commotion 

Within

Hues of emotion
Nuances within
Their colouration
Rainbow beauteous
Prismatic delight 

We as witness
From the fulcrum 
Imbibe each pulse
Through sense of touch

In silence
Staid stillness 
Aliveness

Grateful
For Gods

Vibrational interpretation 
as by ourself chosen
colouration a co-creation
be it nectar or poison

Thus moment to moment
be we joyous or terse
our contemplation potent
a gift to the universe

A simple physical breath recitation
For we cannot yet call it meditation 

Gently inhaling we pause at the heart
Likewise pause at crown when breath departs
Breathing thus with pause of cessation
Thoughts may come & go as of ego suggestion

We gradually lengthen the practice duration
Flow of breath regardless of thought agitation
Simply positioning attention during the voids
Alternating at heart & crown therein buoyed

What happens thus is assigning priority
Getting to the divine in stuporous simplicity
By merely performing an exercise in lengthening time
Until the divine relents and we we hear the chime

Within

Footnote:

Such is the exposition
But there is no imposition
Possibly it may not resonate
Unless thought rested we meditate

We may then thus tweak what is written
Like a spirited horse not do as bidden
Adding to this doing our own colouration
Of love seeking love via breath meditation 

Why not?

Eghe - Time-

In these Days, We Prayed

ÉGHÉ (Time)




?






WÉGHÉ' 

With time

The barren becomes pregnant

With time

The pregnant woman becomes a mother

With time

the mother becomes a daughter

With time

The married woman becomes a widow

With time

The childless widow becomes an object 

Of obscurity and weak pity.



With time

An hero's deeds are told as stories

While great events become myths

And Once-Upon-A-Time.


For with time

Mountains metamorphose to sand

Rivers turn farmland

And Hills reduce to slime.


And time

frowns nor smiles on nothing

neither does he give nor take anything

for only a fool boast with a dime.


Oh time

you are too slow but yet so fast

For our tomorrow becomes yesterday

Like the uncertain colouration of a lime.


Man is a slave to time

As all men will answer to the call of time.

For the authority he exacts is divine

Nothing happens without the 

Consent of time.


The past is Time

The present is Time

The future is Time

And Éghé himself is 

Time..

?
