Premium Member Awaking Within the Dream

So here we are, within this lucid dream
appearing to have free will, though not true
for we control not images that do stream
even as pulse of our heart does renew

Our scope of action is type of response
emoted to the fall of the hammer 
wherein optimal choice is nonchalance
standing erect in a soulful manner

Upon ceasing to react, dream sequence ends
since there remains in our heart, no desire
our lower mind to will of Gods does bend
love divine being all that we aspire

Oh hermit, please stand still, ceasing to sway
through day and night, as we devoutly pray

Premium Member A Nice Prescription of Sleep

A nice prescription of sleep
   I took when the day proved awry
And found myself when I blinked
   In a dreamscape so wide.

Tho' it was hard to believe -
   I saw a meadow without end;
My crying stopped to think
   Of where the Tiller went.

I saw in hues I'd never seen;
   The sky emoted rest.
I searched the horizon -
   Sure that there were secrets.

And of time? What did it mean
   To the birds above the field?
To the excitable bee
   Nourished by a fallen tear?

And then - I startled -
   And facing a morning sun -  
Felt my heart's wound dulled -
   Almost like it'd never happened.

Premium Member Diy Surgery

rotten molars unnerved her moribund hunger for living on

she extracted the pain with blunt scalpels pliers and hammer

damaged her smile as well but with the cornerstones removed

in the aftermath of destruction nothing was left but a stammer


loops of denial and self-incrimination established more pain

she tore her heart out under the shelter of drugs and booze

abuse self-incrimination and injustice festered in her mind

emoted a cardiac bypass for feelings leaving nothing to lose


a spiritual minefield exploded and she gathered rapid speed

performed a lobotomy with a manual and surgical precision 

hysterical psychedelia and amphetamines furthered the cause

reached complete numbness from the screwdriver’s incision


only after all operations uppers downers and morphine failed

she realized that life was to seize no matter how it panned out

checked into rehab and abandoned jigsaw super glue and fear

took up painting and poetry and excised her vile needless doubt

“One being freed from the grip of Ahamkara attains his unmanifest state like the spotless moon becoming full after eclipse.” ~ quote from the Adhyatma Upanishad 


thoughts seem to arise without volition
but mindful eye traces heart as the source
wherefrom vibrations emoted in morse
seek from mind as symbols, their rendition

desires of heart cause intent’s emission
but is the impulse rooted in remorse
ego-driven, prone to applying force,
unlike vast space that has no ambition

negating transience, our ego recedes
and yet object-free awareness remains
whence stepping outside space-time we then see
self-existent light within which love breeds
representing flame of heart free from stains
made in God’s image, vibrant and carefree

Buddhist Poet Tree in Motion


Paige helped herself to words written 

On the canvas of life with earth

Etched on tapestry smoothening 

The smothering eclipse of demise


Thermal springs fired resolve and

Restitution from smouldering ashes

Engraved meaning emoted retold

Enclaves of sanity resilient narration


In water she bathed her soul

Nascent native naïve swallowed


Mellow stream bubbles sprinkled

On aquarelle paper sun stars and

The moon in eight noble truths

Inspiring rhyme rhythm meter from

Obscure obfuscation Paige turned

Nothing to pages a tree of her change

Premium Member Not Particularly

I warn you this is not a warm message
written on a generic greeting card.
It belongs to the dark and the cynical,
those people who spit truth on a fire. 

You may ask why is Halloween the best? 
Don’t you prefer colored lights and tinsel? 
Well, no. Not particularly. 
I’d prefer to hear a purr by a pumpkin 
then find my cats in the holiday tree. 

I’ve a preference for things that are alive,
not fake like some spray-painted pine. 
The energy in the air flooding October 
is bloated with the richness of the macabre.

There is nothing but the living dead 
in gifts for those you barely speak to. 
They only call when it’s ‘that time of year’,
Halloween is real fear emoted with a mask. 

No pretension, no phony phoned in words,
it’s more party screams in a haunted house.
This may only last for the length of a night,
at least the diabolic intention is honest. 

Dressing up and giving someone a grin,
giving out candy you’ll meet the neighbors. 
Traditions based on your net worth?
Read to me a little bit more like pyrite.

You may ask why is Halloween the best? 
Don’t you prefer colored lights and tinsel? 
They do not resonate well with an empath.
So, no. Not particularly.
