The debt of soul to Nebro came through the cross of gnosis
Through strength of spirit, though no mortal sacrifice could pay that debt
Christ the vine became that tree of gnosis to pay the debt

I swim in the vast ocean of mind and
plumb its depths for treasure
The pleasure is all mine as it exercises
my will to be great
Many covet life's precious jewels but aren't
willing to give what it takes in return
I've learned that nothing is free in this game of
life and high stakes
The price can make or break a man depending
on his perceptions reach
High science is a vault that can never be breached
by the mind of a layman
You can climb Jacob's Ladder high into the sky
of a mind by saving life
Heaven awaits atop the stairs like a loving and
faithful wife
Just & true are the words being spilled from the
hermetically sealed
The sight of such truths can blind a man with eyes
that don't see & can't feel
Giving faith to those who didn't previously believe
in what's real
Poem written in 2021 from my book Poetic Gnosis

They both ate dates from the tree of gnosis
Froze the whirling wheels in place by their might
Crushed the cherubim’s heads with bliss
White mice who put cat and eagle in fright
White lambs who put man and cherub to flight
They felt the crushed dates flowing like a gust
Tasting the full moon’s light without disgust
Quenching the seraphim’s sword with their breath
Turning his flaming coal to dust
Trampling on his six wings of sin and death
Inspired by the words "For when they ate of the tree of knowledge, they trampled the Cherubim and the Seraphim with the flaming sword" from the ancient writing "Melchizedek" from the The Nag Hammadi Library

Archon of the west, whose spouse was the worldly Sophia
Who blindly abandoned his childhood lamb, to search for unseen light
Though the lamb could have showed him the pure gnosis he craved for
Poem (from a Gnostic Christian perspective) about the Roman Emperor Julian the Apostate, who abandoned Christianity in favour for philosophical Paganism.

The worst lie
is the one you tell yourself.
The greatest lie
is the belief in that construct
of the mind
that you have an actual self
to lie to.
Truth is empty of the notion of you.
A lie is nothing but you.
Look to the pinecone,
the open cone,
look from that third eye
that spirit-sight gave to you
then hid
in the mechanical madness of the brain.
That gland set there like a prismatic jewel
in the grey matter of illusion
wherein dark is brighter than light.
Those who understand the symbiology
of gnosis
will not need to name it
other than that gateway
to that Higher Self
of your Godhead.

Wings lofty and bright
Sharp claws perched on the date tree
Feathers light and still
A beak restless and serene
To sing the song called gnosis

The Prince Of Gnosis
Imam Hussain
O Imam without you where would I be?
You are the one who can guide me
When no one can understand you are the one who can
O prince you are my hero and I am your fan
Please hold my trembling hand
I am stuck in karbala full of sand
Raise me inside myself and fill my dull mind
You are a human and you are very kind
Make my life meaningful and awake my heart
I am an ignorant I don’t know where to start
You are the messenger of peace and full of grace
O prince guide me I am lost in this mighty space
The battle is not over yet evil is everywhere
I can’t stand alone I want your prayer
I am a seeker I need eternal flame
You are the voice of truth the world knows your name.

Passions fight within us,
Raging
Writhing
They become obsessions.
They must be caged
Else they get loose and become hazards.
In grasping life’s secret
imagine a god
Whose likeness can mingle in the worlds within a man
Like sweetness in honey, spread through
Till neither exists on its own:
neither god nor man.

We seek to wrought with no Desire
Detached from all Earthly Pleasures
So yearning to know but with what do you hold?
That are way is wrong, aren't we all
greedy with lust and lustful for power?
How can you know what is right
When all we Ever Wanted was Wrong?
Dreaming a Dream filled with Ignorant Knowledge
It is what Tears us Apart
When we thought we were Right
We were Never so Wrong
How can we Know what is Right
when the ignorance settled so long ago?
Humanity has killed The Divine with Desire
Seek to know what is right In your heart
For you; 'tis different for all
Never agree unless your heart accepts
Always seek
Find your Personal Logos
Be Enlightened
Seek the Gnosis
