treading inwards indicates an
embrace of valour
knowing one is held ——
a journey strewn with jagged edges
unknown detours
once on a straight narrow path
turnarounds disappear
jungles untamed appear
lame sometimes becomes our resolve
though forging beyond crags or rags
one cannot sag or lag _____
perseverance becomes no severance
seventh heaven with salvation usurps
starvation
luminosity at end of slog holds steady
in solitude we need make no haste
knowingness, as Heart’s compass
keep us safe
hazards or hurdles cannot curdle
an inward journey ~
Spirit of destined fate never late
turns burnished key into Home to be
w i t h i n is

British painter Rachel Mercer -
for a contemplative approach, Gwen John was her precursor.
She captures real scenes with a bit of abstraction;
using loose brushstrokes she indicates live action.

When sitting down to dine
altho' before digging in
I unroll it or unfold it
and tuck it under my chin
or more often than not
place it on my lap
as table etiquette indicates
but never on my napper (nap)
where it would do least good
yet if nowhere known as chinkin
why is it called a napkin
as it seems to me it should
henceforth be a lapkin
And here comes one more random slang--
Among many that loosely hang.
What does it really mean?
Not mean, enough if seen,
But gung-ho goes this Gen Zen gang.

Note: 6 7, read six seven. It is the latest random slang like LOL, YOLO, and many of the Gen Zen going crazier by the day. It does not have to mean much, but still…
- I saw a movie; it was 6 7. (passable).
- Look at the dude, he’s 6 7. (indicates height 6’ 7”)
- I’m feeling 6 7 today (so-so).
Perhaps these expressions arise from young generation’s angst. The expression means different things to different bored heads and hearts.
Visual premise of extreme stipulation of emergency declaration.
1. Soldiers on ground in real time in the state being represented.
2. Unaffordable Wage
3. Wages presence indicates War Acts in 24 response.
4. Loss of life cannot be interfered with, only observed.
5. Caution at and as Post to remind one need deploy declaration as executive order and gather haste to governance. Governance is governors post.
6. Turn the war positive in retrieve of life in doors as much as actual document and improve.
7. Federal violations of code meaning we cannot create life in language only by asserted commands.
Removal of Post has no observation above?
You wished God upon another's certificate as pork?
The agency of volume created by poet
Resigned post is record in failures sums
Greed and impotent arrogance
Threat is well aware of its hiding
Convict it as yourself follow conveigniently
to the slaves prison as slave for
slaves wage is feed
“Artificial” often indicates “worse”,
Yet for intelligence it’s the converse.
When it comes to research
AI’s on the top perch,
But for poems it’s not worth a sesterce.
Mother Earth vibrates, communicates, and is referred to as Eden, Gaia, Heaven, The Fifth Dimension, The Great and powerful Atlantis, and Lemuria.
Vibrating at higher frequencies and connecting to higher levels creates an uncanny, but exciting euphoria.
The Secret Universe unveils hidden esoteric spenders that the ordinary mortal never imagined.
Take the red pill, plunge into the rabbit hole, and immerse yourself in a matrix of life never fathomed.
Find within yourself the excellence of love wrapped in the compassion of a uniquely brilliant, flawless pearl.
When awakening to a higher dimension, compassion flows, and all potential is vast where wonders unfurl.
Do not render your energy to anger or fear, which indicates false evidence appearing real, leading to doubt and the path to the dark side.
Fear festers on failure, which leads to anger, hate, and suffering, so avoid people with anger tendencies and do not confide.
Life is a full of feelings and thinkings,
This word may be same for all..
But indicates different meanings;
To get life from God and to do
something for living as a life.
Life is life for all, but that life
Comes to know after done something big
Which gives success....
Life is a sinking ship. A fresh dawn
is just another attempt at garnering hope;
To survive what would have otherwise been!
a dark and gloomy existence..
Experiments, creations can be done in life
But not with life*
Have to be successful with "karma"
and have to get destiny.
Life is not immortal as life means jeena*
And time limits in God hand..
To make an identity of that life
Have to do some extra ordinary that prices..
Life is beautiful pain
Have to be face that to get fame and relaxation after facing it against.
Bhayalina Baishya
Fruit Jar
The dried fruit jar indicates
disagreement by
using a
high five.
Every skill indicates a creator
Such mastery astonishes the minds
So what about the entire universe
That created and perfected it
He is the one God
With whom no one shares
This creation and mastery.
motel lobby in arkansas
close to the crystal bridges
young man with tattoos walks to large creamer
he begins to pump creamer into coffee
sees me and indicates I go ahead of him.
Ii shake my head ‘no”
tell him to go ahead, he will be quicker than me
two polite strangers making conversation
in a motel lobby in arkansas
I sit down to eat my breakfast
watching people sauntering in and out
four children skip past, giggling like faeries.
they could be from new mexico or virginia
There are license plates outside from several states
I marvel that people are vacationing
in the middle of the week in arkansas
DUST
The dust has settled in a thin layer
Fine at least in its tiny particle size
But not fine, as it indicates neglect
Almost white with a touch of grey
Speckled with miniscule dark spots
So ignorant of the effect it creates
Yet despite it all, more will accrue
Unless and until, breezes may blow
That will disturb the localised air
And nasal passages too, in a sneeze
Accidental, yet showing contempt
For all that lies there, merely as dirt
Found in crevices and on surfaces
Whether disturbed or otherwise
Can still persist, but in its own time
im playing cards with pandora
and she’s bleeding her hand
its so painfully obvious
i see her grand plan,
because calamities hit a set
and she’s feeling alright
but theres one card left
im holding hope tonight
and its hope which
keeps me in this game,
im bankroll backed
no matter the pain
that might come
from losing it all
im in too deep
not prepared to fall
the scripture clearly indicates
what one should do in this place
step 1
admit you’re powerless
you cant fight demons which dont exist
step 2
find someone who
can save you and set your free
step 3
give up again,
find your god and pray to them
step 4
im getting tired of this
pray for strength to resist
temptations which prick and poke
nerve endings, sending signals
to the brain, wanting more
needing pain,
write it down, find where it hurts
tell us all how you’re the worst
step 5
step 6
step up
who gives a
you wont resist
until your hope ceases to exist
