Love is in the soul dust of the universe
endless expansions endless contractions
inhaling the future exhaling the past
the heart expands-the heart contracts
no beginning -no ending to anything
cycles re-cycling we're one and the same
one creator one destroyer
infinite freedoms-infinite chains
choices marbled with destiny
heaven and hell a marriage of seeds
life is a sweeping brushstroke
a soul dusted entity

My twenty, twenty-four’s resolutions
Are: first find my problems great solutions,
That's focus more on my pen,
Eating will be forgotten,
I can control my body expansions.
Another thing that I’m planning to do,
With my bicycles, there I always go;
No car, taxi or a bus,
Just drive pedals with my ass,
Staying at near places saves my cash, too.

Turkeys' Thanksgiving Suggestions
A month before the thanksgiving party,
All turkeys met in their community
To plan how to stop people,
Cooking them as foods for all,
For there are other fowls in their county.
Mr. Gobble had a smart suggestion
To have them ducks’ and chicken’s rotation,
Everybody then wore wigs,
Imitated sounds of pigs,
But they forgot to hide tails' expansions.

Don’t Forsake Me
An interview with a dying tree.
Annie Willow entered my office,
It surprised all of us.
At first glance,
You might think she had no chance.
I inquired to what she would bring,
Something to add, something with zing.
Her wilted leaves and branches,
Just cleared our expansions.
She spoke clear and concise,
I had to think twice.
Years of nurturing and encouraging
My sprouts to grow, is how I learned what I know.
I am great supervisor, A revolutionist,
Working and mentoring I do to subsist.
My credentials speak for me,
Even if I am a dying tree.

The sweeping stops
the world cuts its own grass
feeds itself with the living
while the dead grow trees and turf.
You notice things,
the eyes of your eyes are open lattice windows,
shutters taking pictures;
making those images move.
Suddenly, as quite as a field mouse
the view you are watching
becomes just watching.
Only then do you recognize
this ever expanding life of all who move
through you.

Loss of awareness,I forgot my ambience.
Expansions in floral exuberance,
and exhibits unique ecological trance.
As my veins they come from silence.
Owning a mount is quite a feat of dance.
Concert of sounds, the spectacle of colour.
As a different type of raw contour.
It transmutes the tour.
Their imbuing weapons and armor.
The black empowerments,
illegal logging and states of loor.

From source Emanations reverent
Spaces born of oneness collectives
Infiltrate infinity prize prism clouds
Freeing premier born Divine Nexus knots.
Pulse towers of vacuum awakenings
Cross vast voids, returning to Light.
Forgotten planets pilot plot
Trans dimensional torrent tearing,
Luminescent love waves weave
Dematerialized spirals secreting sentient
Sentient staggered transmissions.
Reflections of Reality permeate
Into other expansions revealing
Silent stirs of universal echoes.
Destinies of beings, Galaxy's child,
Creates conscious codes of Existence.
Synchronicity glides effortlessly
among ancient star chronicled
corporeal prophecies.
Ominous omnipresence.

It wasn’t a matter of “should”;
’Twas more like a question of “could?"
So tanks for expansions,
Don’t care about sanctions;
At this point, they’re not any good.

I Shall *** ————————
As I pass, I shall pause to live
The poem apart fromthe paper,
Not writing,
But floating…I shall linger
Bowing to whisper to violets, to
Inhale their royal purple hues
In their expansions of blooming.
Then, I shall lean to listen over
Those petals, spy their
Delicate, golden, stigmata centers
And inhale the fuzzy,
Dusty pollen, to dream of my own
Blossoming in dusk-falling deft blue
Air, swirling with minute diamond-
Lights as either I rise or heaven falls
Briefly
To grace a splendor-knowing of
Love to love,
Heart to heart,
Soul to soul.
I hear my spoken poem:
“Alleluia! I choose, yes,
To live like the sweet
Violets, a one among the All;
Endeared above, with beauty below;
Translating agonies;
Choreographing smiles
As I go…

A child innocent,
An orchid florescent;
The sun in the sky,
The vast milky-way;
The earth benevolent,
Sea elements abundant;
My own heartbeat,
My mind’s wisdom-seat;
Mindful meditations,
Breath’s fluent expansions;
All these give me peace…
Yet not like the one I experience,
When I see a smile on someone’s face,
Because of my very presence and loving service!

One has to be aware of the wandering moon,
sometimes still caressing near the bluish noon.
Measures of days signified by the queen of night,
bowing to deities over wide water shores to all might.
Bringing forward the blessings to the forgotten dream,
providing save passage to that purpose keen.
Beyond the ideal towards enchanted goods,
where more is meant that meet all mental foods.
In service high to touch that hermitage,
where faintest stars in still, are the majestic judge.
Signs of symbols reflecting infolded spheres,
slowly revealing agents of necessities coming to years.
Turning moon time table to the perfect fit,
intimate hands that speak the voice to submit.
The waning and waxing phase through daily mansions,
nocturnal mother and her love expansions.
To cover the eyes that blear feeble illusion,
creating integrity with firm conclusion.
Sweet echo calling from many lives with omens,
melodies that sustain the purity of emotions.
References from recorded certainties with its bliss,
pensive meditation and treasures from the dark abyss.

In a given moment

Be safe. Stay safe.

She was an abstract woman in a clinical world
theoretically reasoning her notions were perfectly
discerning midst-chaotic sensibilities,
whilst her inane whimsicality kept semblances of
insanity eye-leveled twixt reconfigurable ideologies'
over-share & objectionably designated delicacies of
exothermic exposures pseudo-psychic phenomenons,
therefrom she found divinities were misaligned
with governmental expansions as an alternative to
spirituality and hypotheses of butterfly hurricane frolics,
'twas indubitably manifestations of poetically piddled
calculating escapism artistes & scoffing con-conspirators
