Long Enmeshing Poems

(A Christmas Collage) 

The sun has set and night is stealing
Softly o'er the silent land,
While snowflakes slowly down are falling,
Shaken from an unseen hand.

To the top of Thorburne Tower
Light from windows streams around;
The glow of...

ANCESTORS

Lady Liberty

And the Lady cries:
"Bring me your lame, maime,
Your poor, your Refugees."

Came by the Mayflower
And others like her,
The first Settlers came
from near and far;
Men, women, children,
old and young.

Bellowing sails flapping 
in tempestuous winds,
People courageously sailed,
Getting...

To wake each morning and begrudge
 the daylight  intruding  into that life..again.
To feel desolate that once more no prayers were answered,
despite frantic, blind pleadings for an unending sleep.
To know that again, the charade...

Why worry...?

Within the same breath
yukon catastrophize and
make mountain range
out of molehill mental material
impossible to scale
even with best Sherpa as guide.

Take advice from expert
what if...worse case scenario
time and again no fiasco
never makes cerebral showdown

most horrendous debacle

“The rays of setting sun design the unframed dreams 
in life’s kaleidoscopic snapshot.” – by Poet


The revolving wheel of the ceaseless time 
rotates the contrived kaleidoscope of life, 
the riveting patterns change persistently 
in the...

In the dark alley of time my mind-body duality wanders 
With the life stumbling on the hazards of blunders   
The frailty of the unknown far-off future destined
Casts shadows of despair on my innate...

"The streams are my veins."


God search begin, by choosing quietude;
All that remains, is consciousness aware.
With bliss mists ethereal, heart’s imbued,
As love in love with love, with love does pair.

Our form’s forged from earth, water, fire...

The assigned unseen lamp hidden somewhere, 
someone kindles for you when you’re made to arrive.
Unperceived, it creates reflective beam of contemplation,
illumines the pathway of your destined journey.

The free will you make as the mental mural...

An unseen lamp hidden somewhere
Someone kindles for you when you arrive
Unperceived it creates beam of contemplation
Illumines the pathway of your destined journey.

The free thoughts you create as mental fresco 
The lamp makes it ostensibly self-radiant...

Descent and ascent
Through vibration spectrum
May fan fires of feral sentiment 
Enmeshing our soul in ego residuum

To feel fully by touch we enter trance
Leading to dreamy state of stupor 
Indulgence in earthy dalliance
Makes endless our caper

Let us find time and space, my love, where you and I
Fly high, try never again to cry
No matter what flak circumstances try
To lumber on us
When feelings blow hot on the bus
Where for your sake...

The wheels of  bureaucracy grind deep and slow
  enmeshing the simple man as he twists and writhes 
beneath the crushing vice, unable to avoid
the spreading algae of greed and vice of
 those who...

As the desire of flight hardens my veins,
Your eyes, cool as the earth, shot with filtered 
sun, stay my limbs.

It’s difficult to believe in longing or sorrow
Beneath the eves of yew and hemlock.
Though stepping towards...

On the wheels of time I’ve travelled for long
on the crafted pathway of synthetic stage, 
revolving my split mind, entrapped in polarity, 
under the spotlight of the contrived moments, 
enmeshing the confused me with paradoxes.

Many a day we stray
Stray from the straight and narrow 
The golden path, the Way
So blinded we are by the 
neon lights of evil and vice 
that draw us closer day by day
Enmeshing us in...

Are anchors fetters or do they stabilise,
acting as moorings, holding us steady,
that we may stay grounded in our comfort zone,
whilst battling fierce winds of duality?

We walk alone yet seek safety in numbers,
opting to adopt culture...

the human experience 
defined by three states
waking, dreaming, deep sleep
compels us to navigate
nuances of each realm

hemmed in my our mind
enslaved by senses five
pristine soul yearns for freedom
but captive to hypnosis
demonised by darkness

ego entity here manifest

dripping
tap, tap, tapping
onto the floor of my cavern
creating the supernova
blasting expression and light
silent but omniscient
reaching its fingers to
fill in all the cracks
gasping
we all come in to this world
feeling the pulsing energy of the ethereal
birthed through...

“if attention not always free flowing
persona thus but a dead man walking”

Look at waves of emotions arising
within limited mind body combine!
We delight in impulses surprising,
for their origin, we cannot assign
to any source, other than the...
