Long Embodying Poems

Geese, Goslings and the Bridge

Sometimes, when you least expect it, Mother Nature makes a u-turn and draws you into the ridiculous.  Such was the time recently as I was returning from a friend’s home...

Understanding myself, and towards developing  introvertedly 
The parameters of today, yet most lay dormant inside of me
Questioning the how, as in such, the extended inner faculty 
Fractured as then, it's an opposing end, and...

Who died
and made God the Father
the Christian Fundamentalist Law of Cooperative Redemption?

Well, dear, that was Jesus of Nazareth,
your CoMessianic Avatar of regenerative health trends,
remember?

Right,
OK, so,
in my heroic ego-narrative,
we are the purest, most right, oldest exegetical...

It is love, not loss, we expect,
we long for and belong with,
we seek within
a cooperative economic network
rather than a competitive gain-over-loss
capital-rooted value system.

Love evolves more resonantly
and robustly
than fear
and hatred
and apathy
and dispassion,
yet we have planted our...

I'm returning home
from a bag it yourself grocery,
and listening to an African-American novelist
respond to questions,
actual open-ended real NPR questions,
like old school inquisitive journalists once asked
before the polarizing days and nights
of fake right/wrong answer questions
and their...

Yang unveils landscapes of textured thought
while Yin brings climates of swelling and ebbing feelings.

Together,
yin affective unconscious
with yang deductive conscious labels and language of natural,
and sometimes oddly unnatural, uncomfortable, relationships,
humane consciousness
searching for divine polypathic continuous timeless...

Convalescence of Richard McGeehan

Spouse of my eldest sister
marital bond fixed in place
strong as mortise and tenon,
he hales of hearty Irish stock
genes of said septuagenarian
analogous to pith and marrow
wrought courtesy divine providence.

At present aforementioned brother in...

By: Moji Agha -- June 24, 2016 -- Tucson, Arizona

Last dusk at a small Tucson park, my 3-year-old dear friend, Rafi,
insisted unhesitatingly on imitating, no, actually embodying, a baby dog.
REALLY! As real is Trump's Presidential...

In the realm of true love, a man stands tall,
He never hides his feelings, he bares them all.
He fights for what’s right with unwavering might,
And never gives up on the ones he holds tight.

Sacrifices he...

I recall
from Catholic seminal
seminary daze,

Frocked monastic gaze
vowed nerve-systemic chastity,
self-sacrificing poverty,
political obedience
to a Great StraightMale Master
of God's paradise reclusive House
filled with sacred humane 
Men's Room Only vocations.

Yet I experienced these three
Green Commons commitments
in reverse Taoistic
NonZeroistic chronology

Resiliently healthy ego identity
emerges from a lifelong process
of interdependent ecosystemic individuation

As LeftBrain verbal dominance
historically emerges
from multiculturing RightBrain synergetic feelings

Unchanging physical being
frames embodied transubstantiating
creolization processes of becoming co-acclimated.

All or Nothing dogmatism
arrests incommensurable divides
between naturally embodied ego...

Jesus was a patristic carpenter,
a non-nationalistic builder
of goodnews communal structure,
a nonviolent communicating leader,
a multispirit-natural facilitator,
divinely humane bilateral
spiritual health is natural wealth
facilitator of recreative green
and blue
and red-blooded sensory communion.

I am a mere custodian
of messianic intention,
practice,
discipline,
caring for...

Some forests never fear the fury of March bending a tree,
their Redwoods and Giant Sequoias provide good shelter
from winds and storms that occasionally begin at sea;
in this woodland, the wood thrush and the blue warbler

I want to read her eyes.

At the Planet Gym
embodying my best business
when suddenly I wonder

Why am I here?
repeats
and repeats
in my wandering ear

And what magic
might appear

Isn't that queer?
Not WHY am I here
with these Straight People

because this overpopulated question
may obscure other
quieter
ambidextrously resourceful...

Sinister scene of a dark September sight;
Hell's horrific harridan, heralding the night.
Tangled and twisted, like taut, twirled twine;
Set upon Satan's wicked, shameful, sordid shrine.

Interred in a musty cellar deep in the earth;
A questionable life, without...

In that meteoric moment
she exhibited eternal qualities of wonderfully wrought womanhood,
calm,disciplined and candid,
adorned with few distinctions from the rest behind her
the loving leadership was projected in painstaking posture,
brutal perfection,a suffering of diligence amounting to total...

Call me lovely
The sweetest thing
Rhapsody beyond a notion
Of comprehension
Beautifully imperfect
Perfectly constructed
Construed without conviction
Confusing lack less corruption
Call me lovely
I am your lovely, divine

Call me dumb
The stupidest thing
Retarded by dismal 
Dreams of feeble leaders
Bluntly wrong
Wrongly accused
Ignorant to...

Written: June 18, 2023

In a garden of colors, vibrant and bold,
A symphony of roses, their stories unfold.
Amongst them, the red, love's fiery embrace,
Binding our family with warmth and grace

With petals of a crimson hue,
The red...

Integrity can feel overwhelming
when compared to underwhelming 
disintegration

Nascent powers of joy/sorrow-full integrity
have emerged perhaps too late in
full and emptying life,
which feels sad,
at best bitterly happy
to take so long
to move from wounded child
into integral binomials

Like thinking...

It's pure excitement, on the edge
To know what I have, what I do - is admired
Creating from insight into pigment
Repeating, surrounding myself, you
My friend
This is all, it is
I'm bold, emblazon myself
Watched over they go through...
