v2 Hiding, riding in clouds You come down from Heaven Kissing leaves and flowers, filling streams Sometimes merciless…pouring Other times gentle…misting Sporadically invited, frequently intruding Persistently presumptuous You can be cool or warm Soft or hard You may clean our wrath Soothe our soul Quench our thirst Whether you come in showers or seasons Leaving puddles of sorrow or pools of joy One thing is consistent, absolute… You are always falling…...

Premium Member Waking To Duality
(“Dragon’s Eye”, 2024, original encaustic) Waking To Duality I wake from a dream Where I’d been in nondual samadhi A vivid clarity of thoughtless meditation I tried to sustain once awake Until I realized I probably have such dreams All the time and never know. The vanity and thus duality of life Is the desire and attempt to recreate What already is Making...

Bound by Flames
From passion's fire, both love and hate are born, Twin flames that flicker, dancing side by side. One offers warmth, while one will leave you torn, Yet both consume what’s hidden deep inside. Love crowns the dawn, but hate will greet the morn, Each holds the heart, no place for peace to hide. Though hearts may ache, the truth remains the...

Doppelganger Dissonance - Schrodinger’s Self
1. Hyde/Hide ¿Who is the one? ¿The one you call me? ¿What is this image? ¿That you say you see? ¿Wearing my visage? ¿And inside my skin? ¿The one in your lies? ¿That you choose to spin? ¿The one in your eyes? ¿Yet not inside mine? ¿That’s of your creation? ¿And inside your mind? ¿Of your imagination? ¿The one you call me? ¿Who is this person, Who could they be? 2....

Premium Member Hourglass of Primal Wolf Skulls
Why does he provoke me to anger? He stalks among us - with his song - a wolf's grin His inimicality beckons like a hawk's talons, luring prey to certain death Yet he imparts wisdom to those who bleed Beware! his insights twist like a pit of pepper x vipers; devouring souls He spins tales of survival and primal instinct Beneath the façade lies decay concealing...

“Lord of Light, with no hostility Forge me as a sword of your tranquillity To the kingdom of war, let me give a dove Where there is hatred, let me give love Where there is pain, let me offer forgiveness Where there is depression, joyfulness Where there is despair, let me bring hope and sight In...

I am
My heart bleeds, my soul needs. I've loved and I've hated. My hunger, never sated. I've risen as much as I've fallen, I'm a gambling man and I'm all in. I continue to chase after wild geese. I submit to the universe on my hands and knees. No matter what the future holds, I will...

Premium Member The Duality of Judgement
A heart of stone, a mind of fire, Each judge, each desires. One sees the flaw, the fault, the sin, The other seeks, what's hidden within. A silent hand, a whispered word, A judgment passed, a soul unheard. Yet in the stillness, a gentler gaze Forgive the darkness, find grace. The stone may crush, the fire may...
