Premium Member Lone Mind Got Devastated

                      My mind had a door embedded 
                         with gems of emotion !
                    Through that entrance I greeted you always.
                           Now all gemstones are fallen off,
                    leaving shadow of glaze in empty sockets.
                             You  walked away on promise 
                                to be back by 'tomorrow'.
                            No more to voice my ardent ardour 
                            but to drag dull days on false expectation 
                                  of your so called 'tomorrow'.


Something Bigger Than Myself

Each day before dawn gazing up at the stars I truly hope to see
if somewhere in the Universe a morning gift was left for me
to restore my equilibrium from a restless painful night
then as I look to my delight I spy my morning feast
for the Cosmos sent its brightest star; she twinkles up above
her name is Venus and just for me she wears her sparkling gown
I adore her dazzling beauty as she takes away my breath

The Sun is waiting in the wings to bring light to our day
and like a trumpet serenade the skies will celebrate her rising
in the east the sky prepares her morning overtures with 
a kaleidoscope of colours to infuse the daybreak sky 
hues of crimson, orange, vermilion are painted from an artiste’s palette  
as dramatically she makes her entrance; a shimmering golden orb 

Then finally at the end of her day she creates an impressive finale 
a cornucopia of her most vivid colours lights up the evening sky 
as wispy dancing clouds float by to soak up her vibrant hues 
then slowly she reclines to bed to view the biggest show of all

This show is always different on each twenty eight day run
a celebratory performance from iconic Mother Moon
such a captivating sight to see 
this shimmering silver spherical globe
she truly is my favorite and of her I am in awe 
I gaze at her for hours for she truly stole my heart 
she lifts my spirit 
she calms my soul 
she enlightens my life
she is something bigger than myself

Fearful

Fear strikes..
A jolt of fear arises..
A lightning bolt of fear illuminates in the sky..

A grand entrance it had made..
An uninvited guest..
The wrath of fear had wrapped it's frightful arms all around..
Fearful circumstances of negativity..

Fear of life..
Fear of death
Invasions and disruptions of fear..

Fearfully we are petrified of fear in itself..
We run away from fear..
We run rapidly
At the highest speed
Being chased by fear
The uninvited guest is directly behind..

Love is..
Opposite of fear

Enriched with profound love..
Deeply in love ..
Which is..
Carried out through the depths of the soul..

To taste pure sweet love..
Basking in the epitome of love..

The fullness of it all..
A full fledged experience to taste..
Experience of fear comes to play..
The uninvited guest had arrived..

The strike of lightning along a fearful bolt of electricity charged..
The wrath of fear and frightful arms wrapped around has no power without love..
The power of love...
To love ..
To truly love..
Fear shall become an invited guest..
An invitation to fear delivered..

To taste pure sweet love..
One must taste bitter fear..
To love..
To know love..
To love thyself..
One must know the complete opposite..
Which is fear..
Need not run away anymore..

For Angie



The hallways rotated over and around me, maybe it was that aged smell of antiseptic affecting my equilibrium...
Trying to keep my feet, bracing the wall of the room she was assigned with my hand to gain my balance, I was overcome with 
hot vibrations 
of past voices, shrieking, pleading, crying out for lost loved ones at the time of their greatest need... 

unanswered

Slumping to a chair, I felt the weight of despair

Nothing, nobody

My will to live had been broken

Shaking myself, I knew I needed to be released from this
Possession of my soul, so I began praying...
'God, grant these souls entrance to Your Kingdom, reach out with Your Loving Grace to hold them and keep them in Your Love'

Free at last, the orderly asked if everything was alright, I said No...he said, I'm sorry, I need you to sign these papers for Insurance, we have a patient waiting for this room and Housekeeping needs to finish some tasks

Angie's heart had given up, but the cause of death was listed as covid

I just got up from my chair, set the forms down, and walked out, the orderly pleading behind Me "sir, sir, the papers!"

Housekeeping brushed hurriedly past me as I hit the elevator 
Down button, entered and 
Released at the lobby floor, 

Stepping out to the fresh air, 
I noticed a Ruby Throated Hummingbird alight on a trumpet flower nearbye, sip, then pause to acknowledge me and spun straight-up...

Heaven awaited

The Mirror's Tear Part 2

Just?
 look, at YOU now, self righteous, you know YOUR rites best.
You have much to celebrate.
Celebrate diversity, the joy of
sex in the city. 
Make it, 
YOU, at your behest,
the center of your Universe. 
Where only a black hole resides, and your own worst enemy?
Hyde's.
 It's not lonely there. 
There's 
YOU!
That's all right dearest.
 Party like it's 2 0 1 9.
After all, everything you have and are is because of being free and solitary.
To thine own self be true! 
A self propogating gene of Genie
Is only rubbed out when it's convenient for YOU.
Live like a con-gypsy 
under Gaias loving gaze of nativity.
As you sweep the wind beneath your wings and batten down the sails, 
a treasure hunting pirate on life's seven seas'swells.
Through the river Styx, 
Flotsam, Jetsam
mental living, Hell?

Some things are meant to be.
Like milk and honey.
But not according to "do what thou will"
It is a suicide into lonely.
Drunkenness into endless sleep.
Although, they call the new aged Kool Aid,
harmless wine. 
I see,
 that it matches fine;
with neurosis,
scerosis of inclusion,
invader intrusion, plucked from narcissistic vines. Tended by demon.
From the Forest of delusion.
Pairs well with the thorns of Night.
Take a sip of that self hypnosis. 
Does it go down smooth? Or does it have a kick?
Then kick your **** on down the line. 
Off your booth, in Life.
Ritually drunk and now, suddenly divine at your own behest.
A little bit of courage, right?
Something to take the edge off,
the edge of night?
Regret.
Sugar on the brain that foments its fermentation over time.

Is it Godless or Goddess ambrosia?
A poultice tea for the sick?
A placebo innoculation against lack of faith?
Selfishness in self paranoia,
Just for your sake.
A dark principality and clever mind-
Vampirism-Medicating prophylactively against 
the stake, like an aneurism.
Those pesky ghosts of darkness.
In the blood.
Possess your sconces, wick and flame, dead.
Seek to destroy, the lightbringing.
Your senses dampened, 
fuse blown
guard down.
Darkness.
Integrity bled.
On the Rampage.
Rampant.
Their Entrance.
Gained instead.

Premium Member Dazzling in Appearance

     The vestments of Aaron the High Priest stood out
       Their striking beauty brought about 

     heightened expectations from the hushed crowd
       as the High Priest entered the Holy of Holies in a cloud

     of incense, carrying the names of each tribe on his breast
       seeking G-d’s pardon, that His people He bless… 

     trembling, humble – though dazzling in appearance
       Aaron pleaded Israel’s case with iron-willed perseverance



     ________________________________________________
     Above is a stylized description of the entrance of Aaron, the
     High Priest, into the Holy of Holies in the Tabernacle, on Yom
     Kippur, when the Tabernacle was carried from place to place
     during the forty years that the Israelites' sojourned in the 
     Sinai Desert. (3,300 years ago).

A Change Came Through

Written By:  D. Collins 1/7/25


A change came through like a resounding wind.
Altering the course that I was currently in.
It flipped the script to set me on the right track.
It gave me something I am never giving back.


A change came through and took up residence.
It fed me the knowledge of my relevance.
With all my faults I’m still a Child of God.
And, He accepts me with an appealing nod.


For those who care to listen, I have advice for you.
See how your life glistens when change comes through.
It makes its entrance with an enormous splash.
It will give you something you’ve never had.

Dreams

Darkness envelops a violet sky,
night ends the lighted reign,
stars elongate in a lucid haze
as a new world appears in the mist.
People and places hidden away in the dark
play to the crowd of only one,
in contorted scenes of yesteryear.
How I long to comprehend its meaning!                


Pictures arise like a sudden tornado,
twisting and turning endlessly;
unexplainable scenes intertwine 
in depths of unimagined presence.
A fast entrance with an even quicker exit,
all the players right on cue
make a drama every night.
How I long to understand it all!
       

The tossing and turning like a rag doll,
in rhythm with each sequence,
everything seems so close yet so far away,
but grasping to touch is sheer madness.
The scenes that come are mainly a mystery,
and the players change infinitely,
much is forgotten as the darkness fades.
How I long to dream again!

I left out riding my bike down 
first street over looking the 
wildly calm river artist's lined 
bicentennial entrance way where 
Thomas Edison Rockefeller
 
and Ford feasted on clams 
my mind wandered about 
the timing of the dem lights to 
brighten the garden lofts above 
the streets soft jazz from 

Billie holiday rang out down 
old Hendry street my heart strings 
mingled with the Sunday drivers 
passing by after mass fondly 
trying to pick me up leaving 

the shops it was noon it was 
damp the sun peeked in behind 
the gulf today a few children 
skipped by carrying balloons 
while the fishermen tossed nets 

near the shore sand collected 
beneath my toes as two boats 
docked this was home my life
an yet the Caribbean whispered
to me waves slammed against 

the stone walls I felt a few sprinkles 
I quickly dashed into the book store 
on the corner while the aroma of fresh 
French bread gather all of my senses 
luring me to a sit down with brunch 

tiny raisin bagels diced mangos 
inside a vintage wine glass 
one thousand sparrows flew
backwards within the breeze      
as I rest on the steps of St Francis
