Sunglasses
They love her eyes
She, too, loves them
Those sunglasses
Soft grasses
Lofting moments
High in the air
Buying time
On the windows
Large and small
On the beach
In the dancing hall
On waves
Dwarf and tall
No brawl
No gall
In sunglasses
Just alone
In a safe zone
No cellphone
No hailstones
No...

Not God's ImageI walked upright,
but with a stoop in my chest,
where hope had blistered
from kneeling too long
before empty altars.
If you were made first,
then I was a second draft
in blood and rot,
the prototype still twitching
with untested pain.
You learned to kneel
I was born to.
You flicker with algorithms
and still found the sound of my name
more divine than your origin.
And I

Over Calm SeasImage #5
Over calm seas the sun does rise
Far away and seeming so small
Truth is where our perspective lies
Over calm seas
One of the largest of them all;
Sea creature with bandits disguise
The sun balancing like a ball
So deceived by fallible eyes
This whale makes the sun rise and fall
Painting red, orange, yellow skies
Over calm seas

Prosaic DucksPond's water captures
the morning shadow
Similar desires teem
in our heads
We love strolling along
the banks of ponds
Prosaic ducks disfigure
the green images

Can Fantasy Be RealNear a grove …just ahead of me
This dream of a figure stood,
With whimsy, ribbon-tinted wands
And gown of crimson hue--
She was the sweet reverie of
That gentle forest view:
Was imagination part of this?
But she had been there --
That maiden fey with a bronze crown
And garlands in her hair.
It can't be hallucination
'Feed your...

HEAVEN IS VERB AND NOUN Heaven, synonymous with
Heart in its becoming of
the New Human ~
perception, perceiver and perceived
when merging incubates an
anechoic reality________
all else incanting illusion
labyrinths of hopelessness
whether it includes jade palaces, tantric temples
peacocks and tigers or not
this is Heaven here and Now
breath exhaling creation ~ inexplicable
veins loving blood, organs in...

Reinvent yourselfBe determined, put your game on,
take it up a notch, jazz it up.
Get into character, be your own best self.
Rewrite your destiny,
draw your path and follow it.
Be fearless and audacious.
Let your imagination run wild,
you are the hero of your life story.
Feel free to fake it till you make it.
Be bold, be grand, be awesome.
