The kernels desires to expand and pop.
If you make it in too much water, it gets cooked and boggy.
In too much sticky butter, it gets grounded to the bottom of the pan.
In too much flame, it gets the undesired smokey flavor.
In too much spray of oil, it becomes an unhealthy snack.
So pop well and rise and transform to a beautify popcorn.
Then again I see you acting as a co-star in a song.
Shall I call it touché or well-done?
I want to be in the now
Forget the past for now
But thats what built me
It's all in front of me
Stepping forward
With strides of love
I will take this all in one day at a time
When it all gets heavy i will seek out help
This place will never be the same again
I will take what he has given and indulge
The path is right
The time is now
No more baby steps
No more caution
It's time to expand every horizon.
We are all bubbles,
the more connects you expand,
helps you understand.
Horizons expand
then they narrow
We make our plans
sling our arrows
The target tantalizes
at first, bulls-eyes
Later on, one realizes
all of us die
let our heart expand
enveloping existence ~
‘tis then that we’re free

In order to thrive and maintain a properous civilization, we must first learn to become civilized.
Realizing that we all eminate from source and are all connected only then will the spirit be energized.
The things you think about determine the quality of your mind.
The concequences of thinking something over in detail first is a rare quality to find.
To be civilized, the important aspects of life to learn are patience, simplicity and compassion.
Once these three qualities are attained, those aspects of you will never go out of fashion.
Be not bored with life rather thrust yourself into where your passions lie with all your heart.
Upon finding this treasure, a powerfully spirited horse replaces the timid weak-minded fear that draws Lifes happiness cart.
Feel heart expand, in a bliss burst
As pheromones mingle
The dance divine is unrehearsed
Just follow the jingle
Delighting in love’s tease
Nodes within form unfreeze
As bliss wafts through the breeze
In heaven, land
Feel heart expand

Quietus
We gregarious beings live to expand and the most admirable thing is that we grow faster when we move together. When we share life with pals and loved ones, every moment becomes a treasure worth wrapping and preserving inside heart. Just a little thought, just a little effort can ignite us to contribute to a bright future.
Could we sit together and do meditation?
Could we ensure that we belong to the nation?
Could we move away from theological apprehensions?
Could we extend ourselves in cooperation?
Could we help in growth and education?
Could we work together for restoration?
Could we know that we are one despite varied location?
Could we grow above just personal recognition?
Could we stop permanently being on vacation?
Could we support people suffering in privation?
Could we curb the painful hideous starvation?
Could we control unwanted, untoward vexation?
VEXATION: The state of being annoyed, frustrated, or worried.
HIDEOUS: Ugly
PRIVATION: A state in which food and other essentials for well-being are lacking.
COUGHING COFFEE BEANS NEXT TO BOOKS
DID you see that girl in the corner? Next to the books and coffee beans? Coughing i only smelled the aroma of brilliant coffee like old pages of a book of poetry sleeping. I felt warm and could never look away
so-bent warning (traveling this far) better to say i'm sentimental___(going through my head amour than this feeling flutter-flying butter pie. Dropping me to the wooden floor like a devil to it's knees.
Parapluie above my head (oh my) a heart of paupiette yea oh yea. All these doors checked ; locked kitchen quiet and dark / dishes washed: pets fed and plants watered.
Oh romanichel heart. For the world.
Swollen lips - un bisou! She (the one who loves me and does not have a physical body) gave: sa suce!

Yearning to expand, pull of soul
We wish to feel complete
One with love and light, we feel whole
Surrendered at God’s feet
Rapid is our ascent
Imbibing bliss current
When we grant love consent
Seeking pastures grand
Yearning to expand

Quietus
Let heart expand, spreading love scent
Subtle, blissful fragrance
When head and heart grant love consent
Begins divine parlance
Oh hermit, feel complete
Joyously, meet and greet
Suffused with bliss replete
Love pastures grand
Let heart expand

Quietus
very strange how egos self inflate ~ when filling others with hot air
By David Kavanagh
Memories are often deceiving
Yield to all the possibilities
Permanence is an illusion
Everything is in constant change
Reign in moments of confusion
Stretch your subconscious range
Ponder a new or different vision
Everything is in constant change
Constancy is key, not temporization
Tomorrow brings something strange
Incorporate and embrace intrusion
Venture an exhilarating exchange
Everything is in constant change
An ad on the Internet says “hover to expand”
Appears kinda sexual, strange it hasn't been banned
Is it just li'l old me
Or do other peeps see
The sexual connotations tempting each innocent man
