Deuce, says the higher court
Twenty seven years just to putt,
Court still feels it was a short cut.
The white wigs left long back,
We’re still on the same track,
The slow snail courts snore, eyes half-shut.

Every time I turn my radio on
I hear the same old song
and I await good news from abroad today
especially a change is on the way
but I don't believe all they say
as how can they see eye-to-eye
or meet face-to-face
when east looks east and west looks west
in this so-called human race
putting power in the hands
of people who

blackest wings scale higher than mountains
Blackest wings, scale higher than mountains
in the chill of tonight's air,
scarred and bleeding from within,
determined to reach her lover's side,
A voice calls out to her voyage
but her vision gets lost
as it starts to drizzle and rain.
She collides & in such pain,
her claws trying to embed in the side
of the rocks but she keeps skidding

Higher than heaven
heaven too is a domain
Hiranyagarbha, the cosmic egg
though bliss falls like light rain
for its pleasure we beg
dance of polarities
manifests bliss magnetism
renunciation and austerities
illumines body-mind prism
glistening chakras seven
fixates therein our attention
taking this as heaven
tarnishes our meditation
higher yet we must go
where no pheromones mingle
light of Self, white like snow
where our eye

Higher Plane
I’m gonna play my vinyl in the urinal, and that’s final
Life is bad when you're sad
Ain't you glad they took you out of school, coz you were cool
Chicks don’t understand your waveband, don’t know the beat, take a seat
Let me explain, give it plain, feel the pain, I’m on a higher plane
Take a shot, I’m

Higher output
For water to boil the source of heat must be above its boiling point.
For you to achieve dreams then you must be a dreamer
Whats more painful than investing because you can yet no passion
Imagine dating the wrong person then you become pregnant
Hate will build in your heart,not because you made amistake,
But because you did the

A notch higher
Above the crown chakra we sense,
a moist cauldron oozing with bliss
and as we breathe in love’s incense,
we’re bestowed Divine Mother’s kiss.
Though beyond boundary of skin,
as we are therein anointed,
with each breath we anew begin,
our attention single pointed.
Boundaries blur, nodes within stir,
conjoined as a collective whole,
with joyous heart pleased to concur,
with our newly ordained life role.
We

"Going to keep on trying 'til I reach my highest ground." ~ Stevie Wonder
Once, when I was twelve,
I turned a knob on a plastic box
and heard the magic it unlocked.
Infectious rhythm -
what was once still life began to move -
it was in that irresistible groove.
Yes, I still remember
when I first heard Stevie Wonder

All That I Am
Some folks think of themselves as humans searching for a spiritual awakening when the fact is that you are a spiritual being, attempting to cope with a human awakening.
Seeing oneself from a perspective of the spirit within will help you remember why and what you came here to begin creating.
In a higher dimension, there exists

Higher Self I call upon thee
I could have been anything I chose to be here
Cannot remember why, knowledge is dear
For some reason I chose this existence
I have been conquered, I need some assistance
Give me a sign so I may find my trail
Pain I have caused, myself I have assailed
Higher self you are needed, I call
