and so I look them in the face and reply

Understanding Nature

Part 1: What (I Think) God Wants You to Know!

Some people don’t understand Nature,
Feel death and pain prove there’s no God
Or if there is He is a monster,
His empathy for us a fraud.

They say...

I know
you know
you stole our property,
our mutual possession,
our sense of co-ownership,
of belonging together
to grow our health forever.

I know
you took it for your sole ungrateful possession,
to use for your self recreating purposes,
not a subject for open...

Premium Member Dark Pearl Persons
Dark cultures of irritating dissonant pearls,
pearl persons,
perelman,
decomposing zero-souled wisdom,
nondual dark beauty
wherein peace reigns beyond fear
of transparently codestined lives 
with deathly thresholds reflecting new moon delight,
dancing and singing bright bachanal
through fading dramatic
epic operatic
dreams 
of future adventurous...

Premium Member Who I Am
I wish I could be clearer too
But when a mirror comes to view
I find reflections blur the tons
Of promises I've yet to keep.
The virtues to which I aspire
Just kindling in God's cleansing fire
A testament to...

Theory
If God was the singularity
all the energy of the universe
wrapped up in a self compressed ball, 
not even gravity can escape

According to the big bang theory
the singularity explodes out into the universe
being so compressed with...

Our Spring Was a Whirlwind of Newness
our Spring was a whirlwind of newness
learning our emotions
exploring the worlds we were
that had left their long-held orbits
as we began a dance among the stars
in each other's arms spinning thru galaxies
never losing the gravity in...

If you look out into space, 
pictures on the internet 
taken from the Hubble telescope

a great big cloud of gas and dust
the birthplace of new baby suns

mother star beams as she beholds her errant brood
  six diverse, rocky planets
  the innermost, a dense, two-faced, frosty furnace
  the outermost, pulverised

We Are Pollution



WE ARE POLLUTION

In the beginning, its said we were just dust,
Conjecture or, simply words I don't trust.
Even the big bang theory is not a positive must.

The Barren Landscape
Where steel titans glower, casting endless shade,
Rain's memory fades, and a parched land is displayed.
Bangalore simmers, a cauldron in the sun,
Life withers silent, its thirsty battle done.

Borewells, like caverns, echo hollow groans,
Whispers of water on...

Cloud of despair drifted in the seamless sky of sorrow, 
storm surged from the dismal horizon of mind’s visage,

like the rolling rills of raindrops on...

A Sub-Species of Fire
In the brief gestation of a moment 
some dark force curled in you infected me; 
I didn't notice and could not prevent 
the surge of misdirected energy.

Nomadic offspring populated nerves; 
I felt their static move...

He chafes the prayer beads against his wrist
	Has died lesser deaths of exasperated rage
		It’s not forgiveness he seeks but purifying anger

To feel the rawness of emotion he focusses
	On undefeatable loss and zealous slaughter
		Of cross fires...

Sorrows of My Heart
The sorrows that assail my heart
Heralding the free flow of forlorn tears
Tears unaccompanied by the usual cries
Tears of a heavy heart
That's what they are,
Tears borne out of heart over - weighed by sorrows
That's what they...

This Is What I Remember
This is what I  remember


something sits on my brain
a heavy pile of memories maybe
(lingering still)
freshly brewed strong coffee
mingling with last night's bouillon
the clangs of covers permeating the stillness
wools of sleep tangle the brows in...

Premium Member On the Proximity To Art
Museums are quiet except
For crackling parquet floors,
Wooden squares, a game board:
Checkers or maybe chess 
Of various right angle, grain striations.

Parallel to paintings in oil, red lines
Begin a court for pickup basketball.
But whether subjects of famous...
