Premium Member Death Entwined in Living Vines

Something dreadful is reflected in this scene
Could be she's seen death in a horrid dream, or
perhaps a relapse of an affliction or addiction
has left her crestfallen, in an insentient state
with the blood of her sin dripping from her eyes.
In vines, she's entangled for having sat so long
Grieving for whatever tragedy has gone wrong.
Entwined in living vines of a scarlet rose 
more alive than she appears to be.

Is it a dark disgrace she bears in this pose?
One Poe would have drawn to illustrate a poem
telling a dark tale as black ravens preen.
With iridescent wings fluttering, they hover near
plucking at an ornament worn round her neck
Cawing attention to her pox in squawking voices,
making her circumspect for being called a sinner.
Has she committed some dark dastardly deed
that's left her sitting on that garden bench
as if in widow's threads, dreading her crime
and praying Mea Culpas for forgiveness?

Forlorn she sits, weary from existence,
oblivious to the avian souls. Do they guard her
or are they being persistent in cawing her shame?
Has she been the victim of some abysmal crime?
What horror must be kept secreted in her mind
and what keeps her kohled eyes closed as if blind?

Don't ask the black bird for he has sworn allegiance
Nevermore would he tell the tale of it all as she falls
ever deeper into the madness that has left her cold.
Aa alabaster statue on a garden bench.
Is she missing her beloved when he was claimed by death
or a wench who in an act of jealousy killed her lover?
The sin committed in passion is a mortal blunder and more...
A flaw in the heart of one Poe would never call Lenore.

Premium Member An Ode To Love

When we so chose, to manifest on earth, 
Stirrings of love divine, brought forth a pulse;
Our innate aliveness, bubbling with mirth,
Humming resonation with God’s impulse,
Feeling by touch, each offered sensation,
In playful, blissful, childlike innocence. 
Heart outpoured joy in spontaneous verse,
Soul aligned as one with all creation,
Dwelt in glory of God’s magnificence ~
Exuberance had no need to rehearse.

Our body had it’s need, fuelled by greed;
Gripped by desire, our mind was in a fog.
Stirrings of ego, soon started to breed,
Boon now bane, tail began wagging the dog.
Baton of awareness shifted to mind.
Insentient to love, our heart grew cold,
Enslaved by lust, we had nowhere to hide,
Bound head to foot in ego’s ruthless bind.
Love became a trade, soul to devil sold,
Our heart contacted, though God dwelt inside.

Back to the start, the time our soul was free;
By God’s grace, we melded head with our heart,
Throb of love as conscience, our referee,
Soul’s radiance restored as work of art.
Love in love with love offers no excuse,
Beauteous, all embracing, lyrical.
Bubbling effervescence is it’s delight;
Presence then succumbs not to ego’s ruse,
An epitome of God’s miracle,
Love drenched soul again glows as living light.

Premium Member I couldn’t talk about it so I wrote a poem

At first we assumed everyone feels just the way we do
Being the light of Self in singularity present here in duality 
Bilocating breath by breath between form and formlessness 
Mind empty of concepts, heart detached and presence vibrant 
Moment to moment, all moments entwined in the continuum 
Embracing and releasing each life touch with nonchalance 
Attention transfixed in the play of bliss magnetism within

Over time we realised souls surrounding us were asleep
Which is to say, their consciousness was rooted in the ego
Causing them to be enslaved by cravings pertaining to form
Insentient to living light of God aflame in the cave of the heart
Little wonder, we found it was difficult for us to communicate 
For we spoke the language of tender love and gentleness 
Whilst they were oriented toward lust and domination

No, it was clear that we did not fit in here, in this zoo
No judgments but it was clearly a vibrational mismatch
Inundated by the cacophonous din of conditioned beliefs
We took shelter in the ever present flow of Holy Spirit within
Alone whilst surrounded by unconscious minds all around 
Choosing a pseudonym and penning our soul’s emote
Of the dance of polarities orbiting love in the void

Compassion

Without compassion there is no genius,
gracious sculptures without life of happiness.
Compassion comes with forgiveness,
enabling the grace of continuous.
When compassion enters the door,
rationality escapes between the floor.
Natural compassion regardless wonder,
gratitude and miracle wand to ponder.
Pale compassion lead to separation,
while glowing ones create love elevation.
The spirit of compassion has many shadows,
without ethics it leads to the gallows.
The spirit of feelings is lost in words of sentiment,
compassions beauty insentient.
Impulses are intoxicating inferior sensation,
compassioned deeds by choice become realization.
It the lovers heart that touches depth,
the godly soul that soars by concept.
Compassioned eye of the seer’s that penetrates,
the knower’s spirit by merit assimilates.
It is the twist of thought,
what is the curl of the beloved.

Compassion sees souls bound to their mind tree,
insentient to touch of love’s moonbeam
and if it could, it would, set them now free
but cannot, so does not, as they so dream.

God’s breath that keeps organic dust alive,
waits for love within mankind to awake,
by partaking nectar from heart’s bliss hive,
ours for asking, when ego we forsake.

Recognising God’s light glows deep within
all forms, we clearly see we are all one,
so lighting the lamp of love, we begin,
relinquishing desires, coming undone.

Wake up oh hermit, we have slept too long ~
Let’s rise together, taking all along

Change the Story

Change the story 
These words kept ringing in my ears
Change the story
That's not what people want to hear
Every morning you  saturate the airwaves
with  insentient and agonizing words
disdaining my intelligence
and rekindling a treacherous fire
You have gone down that road before
stirring up fear and doubt
Impeding upon history
And trespassing on my dignity.
You have eroded all civility 
spilling  vengeance , derision and anger
Catering to their weaknesses 
And making unrealistic promises.
Change your groundless theory and
work towards unity
stand up for what you believe in
and stop this useless masquerading
You have been hammering a tale 
that is so hard to bear
The chronicle keeps duplicating  itself 
resonating deeply in despair
The music is  playing loudly
Echoing mystics in the air
Change the precarious  story
and face the fight with decency.

Premium Member Journey Without Movement

Awaking from sleep
We found ourselves here
For no reason at all
Grinning from ear to ear

Our joy was short-lived
As analytical mind took over
Encasing us in a cloud of dust
Stifling our hearts playful caper

Lethargy anchoring us in a comfort zone
Confining attention in a narrow domain
We soon became insentient to throb of love
Ingraining habits leaving our soul stained

Upon reaching the point of exhaustion 
We chose cessation, nestled in silence 
Therein, astonished at feeling magnetism 
Teleporting us to bliss transcendence

Such dear friends, is the world within
A journey without linear movement 
Wherein rapture of thunderous bliss ignition 
Envelopes us in a sea of tranquil contentment

Premium Member We are he who we seek

As the breath of God vitalised inert matter,
dust thus animated, began to dance,
enabled by bliss magnetism,
suffusing feeble form.

One that became two, feeling separate from source,
looked in within, beholding head and heart,
conjoined and yet standing apart,
insentient to love.

Essence of presence, being but the breath of God,
continued to radiate love and light,
even though the ego thwarted,
its amorous advance.

Although love for love pines, it yet employs no force,
so remains gentle but yet persistent,
waiting for the soul to awake,
from stuporous slumber.

In time, Schumann’s resonance, by the breath of God,
raises frequency of earth elements,
whereupon with heart receptive,
soul’s eye becomes single.

Moment by moment, all moments in time entwined,
all entities but seek to find themselves,
which is living light eternal,
made in image of God.

Premium Member Wildflower

I exist bound by you
like wildflowers planted pitilessly in dry soil
that plunder and devour the strength of my seeds

My stem grows pallid
My petals scentless and uninspiring
My roots withering in arid dust 
strangled by weeds of apathy

Parched in the blight of callous care
Squandered in winds of insentient lies
That snare fire like fugitive arsons 
Burning me with insensitivity to shrivel and sicken
As you beget your vanity with the strength
Of the Sun’s scalding degrees

So scarce the waters of your compassion
that scarcely feed my soul
I stand naked, bare and weak
in the barren home inside your pain

I cling harder to grip
As I wither in the dust of lonely casualty
Strangled and forfeited 
 
I slowly die clenched in your fist of willful despair
trembling from your demise
As my unseeing love yields the compromise

Premium Member Endless Patience

It being crystal clear 
we self block the divine current
owing to hidden fear
thus insentient to the love scent

The limitation in peaked fullness
of the divine electricity
owing to in-form energy conduits 
constrained by identity

Surrender conditional 
attempting steering by doership
as long as mind active
our ego spirals in oneupmanship

Whilst flowing in a calm tranquil 
self aware awareness
vaporising into the heart spacial 
in a sea of blissfulness 

Time & tide do flow on
as we are reshaped on the anvil
we rest in staid silence
surrendering residual egoic will
