As the messages quietly sync, I feel the deepening absence of replies
As the messages quietly sync, I feel the deepening absence of replies,
An abyss slowly swallowing the denial from a heart weary of waiting and longing,
My greatest fear, the unknown truth, now takes shape in the light of day,
Coming to claim its rights, a bitter fruit of uncertainty that can no longer be avoided.
I have always

In the whispers of the abyssal night, enveloped by the ocean of my ever-deepening emotions
In the whispers of the abyssal night, enveloped by the ocean of my ever-deepening emotions,
Here I stand again, submerged in the sea of ancestral pains, choosing to ignore and numb a life of torment.
My memories are crashing waves, each shattering me into fragments,
Threatening to reveal truths I cannot bear, another layer of trauma added,
The newest

Deepening Stillness
“we must get out of our own way, so to speak
that the elixir divine, may inwards seep”
_______________________________
Bliss influx foiled by our own hand
Erst memory binds and confines
Stalled by mind, which would understand
Whilst heart vibrant, with love aligns
Both doing and non-doing fail
Bliss influx foiled by our own hand
Brave of heart, yet rudderless sail
The void

Deepening Stillness
deepening stillness quietly
by accentuating presence
and softening attention
in receptive silence
enriched by trust and love
melding with the flow
of the one consciousness
manifest as individuated form ...
deepening stillness thus
devoid of lower mind
memory imagery rested
as also expectation
or anticipation
cognisant of each life pulse
as of bestowed enableability
flavours of divine imbibed ...
deepening stillness in the void
of no-thingness vibrational
mind body instrument

A Deepening Frustration
He stood there on his balcony
And looked like Mussolini,
But ripped his mask off, like the chains
Encompassing Houdini.
The message that he thought he’d sent
Was “Look at me – I’m healthy!”
(As well as being powerful
And popular and wealthy.)
Yet that’s not how he was perceived
By viewers ‘cross the nation
Who watched in shock and horror
And a deepening frustration.
We’re fiddling

Laws of Deepening Gravity
Laws of co-gravitation
are more like mutual invitations
originating with NewBorn memories
wombed by MotherEarth's DNA
WinWin empty Reed of Paradise potential.
Vocational streams of gaming wealth
held in healthy mindbodies
WinWin revering
and LoseLose fearing
co-incarnate journeys toward ever more healthy integrity
and wealth-cooperative sufficiency
of mutual co-operating authority
co-acclimating flow of co-investors.
Not competing WinLose monocultures
traveling BusinessAsUsual rabidly adept
economic worn-out monotheistic paths
packed with LoseLose self-defeating gravitas,

Stimulation: Deepening In My Ruins
I'm looking at life in a negative night
When I should be glancing it over with a positive light
Beats me that I've not made it to the finish line
Competitive compromise (working together as a team) could connect well with the concept of appreciating components and loving your enemies - 'working together' would've been a relevant, concise

Deepening Dusk
Deepening Dusk
by Odin Roark
How might this relentless approach of final darkness
present its final moments before curtain?
The acts have been rewarding,
even as the protagonist and antagonist
missed some cues,
made a few false entrances,
and at times confused the audience
of only me.
Thankfully…
My catwalk

The Deepening
Take deep breaths and inhale love reborn.
Times ago in a place a meadowlark could not sing.
Recreate the romance and mend up all that was torn.
Within a unbreakable fortress a Queen reunites with her King.
Those dreams of falling towers are left far behind.
A refreshed phase of adoration carried on a crane type wing.
Though shaken but not

Deepening Our Union With God 10042010
The fear of the LORD is the beginning of Wisdom
Prudent are all who live by it Psalm 111:10
AREN’T WE SUPPOSED TO have gotten past fear-motivated worship and
Punishment-avoidance spirituality?
Didn’t God-as-Big-Brother step aside for God-as-Loving-Father?
But is it not “fear of the Lord”
Still one of the gifts of the Holy Spirit that we receive at our Baptism
Affirm in

I was thinking.............
about you and I
Shadows begin to fall
Upon our bed
Sun sinking

About you and I
The warmth of you
Sun sinking............

The flash of the arrow
Straight and true
Hit me through.................
Through my heart so
Thinking,was I
