Flicker of Love
Not a wildfire, not yet a steady glow, but a fragile dance of light and shadow in the corner of an eye. A shared glance, lingering a fraction too long, a silent question hanging in the air, unspoken, yet felt. A small kindness, unexpected, a hand brushing another, a warmth that travels beyond the skin. A memory resurfacing, unbidden, sweet, a ghost of laughter in an otherwise quiet room. It could be nothing, a trick of...

Flicker Back
I read the language of your flame in whispers the world never taught me-- where every breath leaves ash on the soul and love glows just before it burns. You speak in storms, in echoes of rose and ruin, where every pulse is both prayer and dare, and I find myself-- not lost, but undone. The beauty is brutal, but oh, how it sings-- this art of...

I’m gonna be honest. I can’t explain psyche anymore. Let’s lay down the law.   My last flicker of delusion. The sky will open up for me. And water the metaphor And let me cook. With fruit.   My light only flickers. Light and sound Truth and potential Dual Wave Paradigm   Another flicker of delusion. Bananas are yellow and we peel them Sea lions hunt tuna like a woman walking...

As light of Self encased in organic form, keeping this remembrance always in focus, we’re poised in stillness in each and every storm, expanding our heart along the love locus. Save this awareness no practice is needed, for when love as the voice of God is heeded, all doings in our life are done by His hand, which in surrender, soul does...

Faster Than a Flicker
I sort of hoped we would go out in flames, some dramatic spiral into rageful oblivion—a goodbye with ferocity and flair. But instead, you fled… it was worse than a ghost how quietly you left. No haunting, no wanting, just a blur—out of sight faster than a flicker. I tried to follow the trail of your absence, but...

Premium Member In labyrinths, shadows dance and flicker, a chessboard of time unfolds
In labyrinths, shadows dance and flicker, a chessboard of time unfolds, Where dreams, like pawns, march solemnly through mist and silent groves, And every queen, crowned with sorrow or with joy, knows the ancient moves, For life, the hidden grandmaster, preordains each step our spirit beholds. Under the canopy of night, constellations carve uncharted designs, A chess game enshrined in...

Premium Member In the quiet corners of thought, where the stars of ideas flicker and bloom
In the quiet corners of thought, where the stars of ideas flicker and bloom, I hold a belief, a sacred mantra whispered to the winds of destiny: The free, exploring mind of the individual, a treasure beyond earthly measures, A beacon in the labyrinth of existence, illuminating uncharted paths and unknown dreams. This is my belief, the flame that...

Premium Member Just a single astral flicker births upon the darkness a crest of day
Just a single astral flicker births upon the darkness a crest of day, A lone strand of wax, dancing its aura Dispels the night – In a delirium of glimmers that chase away the phantoms of fear, Shaking the hegemony of silence with a hymn of photons. Only a lone flake of snow, in its silvery cascades, Composes a divine ode That...

Flicker of Love
I want to get lost with you in a valley of singing sunflowers, where I wish they bloom as your luminous laughter in immortal hues. My butterfly heart wants to flutter chasing you across cashmere cascades, as this aching to melt into each other courses free as mercury in me. I want you to tease me with bittersweet nothings, while your silken voice allures...
