Accepting what is as is, poised as such,
animating our focused attention,
negating thoughts that we may learn by touch,
embracing and releasing sensation,
grace in-pours in the void of cessation.
Ego depends on thoughts, which we release,
flowing easily like the nameless breeze,
seeking no authorship on words we pen,
bliss magnetism causing heart to unfreeze,
mood and mode displaying stillness of zen.
“refrains of love enchantingly repeat ~
all that that is is simply God’s heartbeat”
~ quote by poet
upon ego death, the Self is revealed
one without a second outside space-time
dwelling in peace as a single force field
feeling complete, no mountains left to climb
with full freedom as self-existent light
the Self then seeks to be love enabled
so merged with God’s heart feels heightened delight
there is no lack and nothing is labelled
God’s mind sparks the spontaneous intent
that each flame brightens, by taking His name
in heaven as on earth, shaping ascent
that glow of Self and His light be the same
each Self is in God and God is in each ~
God as the Self does higher frontiers breach
breath by breath as we are reborn
we sense soul’s vibrance stretch and yawn
there is nothing we need to do
watching the pulse of bliss renew
kundalini does so endow
grace divine in staid stillness slow
each hue’s new, like the morning dew
watching the pulse of bliss renew
space flickers and time holds its breath
when we imbibe love’s healing meth
with each breath we begin anew
watching the pulse of bliss renew
in the vast void, we are self-taught
becoming the flame which we sought
no life puzzles remain to sew
watching the pulse of bliss renew
Subtle scents resurrected by desire,
hijacked by ego, crystallise as thought,
a symbol seeking to depict that fire,
which divine inspirations to heart brought,
attempting to cage sun rays but cannot,
with words merely pointing out to that taste,
savoured, embraced and released by soul chaste.
In silence, becoming one with life’s flow,
as the source that enlivens form of dust,
relinquishing thus ego’s need to know,
vibrance of innocence radiates trust,
as of choiceless choice doing as it must,
to reinvent creation by love’s touch,
relying not upon lower mind crutch.
Deeming both the living, as well as the dead,
to be vibrationally present right here,
we embrace and release all, by God’s hand led,
as these images appear and disappear,
clinging to none and thus we mindfully tread
in the vast void, holding all existence dear.
What’s there to say, that has not been said before,
so why then as yet, does heart seek an encore?
Why on earth would bliss effervescence pause
the bubbling renewal of love and light,
when vibrancy of presence needs no cause
to radiate in the void heart’s delight?
Be it in silence or midst or action,
innate to its nature, heart exults joy,
in time dissolved stillness gaining traction,
having no reason at all to feel coy.
Flowing gently, mode embrace and release,
pristine presence animates the vast void,
frolicking carefree as its heart does please,
for childlike heart is pure and unalloyed.
Come close dear heart to feel bliss beats renew ~
Each hue is new like the fresh mountain dew
NOTHING IN MY LIFE WILL COME AGAIN
Bless my day
my day is blessed
Because I'm alive
because I am
Nothing in my life will come again
Except the life and love mine Father gives me

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr. 2023©
I serenade in my absent not beside you, your continual praise;
Your Father so righteous gathered the right things;
When standing in heaven;
He made you His darling;

Oh hermit, look not for a finish line
Just grow love emotion, in slow motion
Meld head with heart and with bliss beats align
Oh hermit, look not for a finish line
Universe desires to make us divine
Renew with delight, splash in the ocean
Oh hermit, look not for a finish line
Just grow love emotion, in slow motion

As heart does wish, so it is,
getting to endless bliss fizz,
if we choose, without excuse,
making love our only muse.
Vibration variety
partaken in piety,
anchored not at any point,
that bliss of heart, we anoint.
We are spirit, we are light!
Boundless is our soul’s delight!
Each life breath, divine wonder!
Hark within, soundless thunder!

Rapture,
bliss cascading,
pervades each pore of form,
tremors felt as bliss magnetism,
benign divine currents scintillating,
transfixing attention therein,
as we become pure love,
our each life breath,
rapture.

Bliss continual, throbs within
Vibrant current tingling
Love abode, we abide therein
Nodes dancing and jingling
Each breath with joy replete
Surrender at God’s feet
Imbibing nectar sweet
Divine miracle
Bliss continual

Quietus
Here and now this-ness, of what is as is
Oh hermit! Accept, embrace, celebrate!
Feel within, the elixirous bliss fizz
Here and now this-ness, of what is as is
Teasing, tingling, divine entwined caress
To the throb of rapture, in joy, gyrate
Here and now this-ness, of what is as is
Oh hermit! Accept, embrace, celebrate!

Charlie consumed countless calories
chomping Christmas cake
chocolate
cookies
candies
chewy caramels
cherry cheesecake
consequently
Charlie complained of
cavernous cavities
and cramped constricting chino’s
Charlie can’t control continuous Christmas chomping!

The right to demand
Is a part of our human right
Expecially in a critical era
Were change is an emergency
What wrong can brutality
solve to make a right
Or how can it be a solution
For an innocent civilians
Of any country under the sun
Who is made to live
Just to be intimidated
Nor isolated for nothing
We've had enough
And that is the reason
We chose the street
Not our sweet beds
For every Nigerian youth
Out there
Let this be a time of
A start of a new era
Of justice
Let the revolution
Live till change is born
In Nigeria
I remember the words
Of professor Patrick
The day the youth of
Nigeria will rise
Other African nations
Will rise for ever
Alluta continual
