Long Boundlessness Poems

To awaken means to realize one’s own nothingness, that is, to realize one’s complete and absolute helplessness. As long as a man is not horrified at himself, he knows nothing about himself.
Through the labyrinth of...

These wars teach us nothing, not even how to conquer our fears.
We are still cave people.
Democratic cave people, perhaps, but that brings little comfort.
Our struggle is to emerge from the cave.
If we made the slightest...

POEMS
0F MRS PANAGIOTA CHRISTOPOULOU-ZALONI

It’s time
It’s time of thought.
The Love discovers
Secret paths 
And “she’s guided to the dream”.

It’s time of beautiful… 
The Love conquers 
The summit of Olympus
Emotion plays pleasantly.

It’s the time of union…
The Love gathers...

It was when I reached my fortieth birthday.
Not so young, but, youthfulness ruled the day.
I was known as an educationist, around,
My intelligence and wisdom, they felt, was sound.
Not many were invited to my birthday party,
My...

Religion is just a fragile shield,
That man raises before the overwhelming encounter with God,
A refuge built from holy prayers and ancestral fears.
I feel each wall of faith as an ancient fabric,
Dotted with stars that tell...

Or down yet another city street,
This Way down that grand Hiway,
That Third Eye opened:
Random patches of dandelion manifest,
Climbing the overgrown commons by the road;
Disappearing out of sight -
By the cracked, sun-blanched sidewalk;
Golden and deep emerald...

The year is almost over. 
And I’m not sure what I’m supposed to do with that notion. 
It’s just another trip around the Sun for some semi self-aware 
monkeys that can’t get a grip on...

Our suffering merits the celestial, gentle waves bearing the message of love.
I venture not to fall sleep, and keep absorbing nature's enchanting spell, enough mourning in anguish, and revive!
"The old world keep unfolding in your...

Love me in a world of translucent dreams,
where shadows weave their tales under a trembling moonlight,
in the silence of the night within hidden forests.
The echo fades, sad and enchanted, beyond time,
somewhere in the universe, the...

StarIvy Entanglement I

It's was, is and will be are one.
Each is different and distinct.
However, twisted and entangled they be,
Circles upon circles,
Circles of infinity trapped.
Boundlessness held by the limited.
Star Ivy stretches to the far reaches of...

Oh, my creator,

In my journey from falsehood to reality, From deceit to truth, 
From confinement to boundlessness, 
From obscurity to illumination, 
From malevolence to benevolence, 
From nonexistence to existence, 
From familiarity to the unfamiliar.

Oh, my...

In the endless kingdom of time, where clocks are silent and years dissolve,
Existence weaves smiles with the mirage of immortality, faultless,
Man, a traveler towards the infinite, through melting icebergs of moments,
A dancer at the eternal...

In the shadow of love, where souls meet their echo,  
To love becomes a pilgrimage towards one's own rebirth.  
We seek not a successor in the labyrinth of fate,  
For to propose...

On a velvet night, when man enters woman,
like a wave kissing the shore with repeated desire,
and the woman opens her mouth like a flower revealing its petals at dawn,
her teeth shine like stars that form...

On my shoulders, a thought as thin as mist has settled,  
A silver statue in the night of thoughts, cold and mute.  
In its marble stubbornness, it stood frozen,  
Not a strand...

Find your love and let it kill you like a storm tearing the sky of your soul,
let it burn like an unquenchable fire dancing on the altar of your heart,
throw yourself into the arms of...

1797 the town of Griswold, London
in back of the banks lived a wizard who wanted the world better
he delighted in a decorated orb which his fashioned around his neck
the shadows of light perfumed its hidden...

In the stillness that calls your name,
I walk down the path your footprints made.
Wandering through memories, lingering in thoughts,
the path slowly weaving it’s way to the center,
Of all that was, all that is,
and all that...

Jesus replied, “Foxes have holes
and birds of the air have nests,
but the Son of Man has no place
to lay his head.”  Matthew 8:20 NIV

Blandness of...

In your open palm, lay down celestial rivers for me,  
Where the earth ends in a deathless dream,  
From your gaze, as wide as the sea, adorn me with stars,  
And in...

I
Your open petals,
Warm scent, welcoming smile
Ignites a fire from a mile;
Flame of passionate unwrought metals.

Please do not quench it that burns
But does not consume.
Let me be covered beneath those hidden turns
Where I constantly want a...

Even now, my precious Lord,
I’m fully aware of the spiritual bleed
emanating from the wounds of my heart;
despite the ongoing pain, I’ve experienced
that genuine explosion of Your holy seed…

which was planted within the frailty
of this tear-filled,...

The May slowly turns to June  
In the forest nightingale sings his delightful tune
The sun shows its visage this afternoon 
The summer breeze is very gentle but spiritually it is a typhoon

Nameless people pass me by,
Just shadows in a long lost world,
Where darkness fills the empty alleyways,
And only skeletal remains where humans once dwelled.

Ghosts of the past still whisper,
Secrets left untold,
Of life, of sorrow,
Of long forgotten...
