Never Being Accursed By Words

Soul, still drifting in the subtle calmness,
undaunted and adamant;
never being effected by malicious intent,
never being accursed by words... 


Use extreme caution when transversing boundaries
of strange lands inhabited by mediums,
who are the seers that wish to replace God;
accept no invitation by affirming their cult...


Wise heart,, live according to your beliefs,
faithful and changeless:  never revere a false god,
the gold-adorned one who glitters
with the utter pretense of being the golden sun...


Preachers abound like the eagles of the Appalachians Mountains;
they relentlessly rove to snatch whoever is feeble,
to convert them to their preposterous creed;
I have seen many fall from grace and ask for forgiveness...


How wonderful and liberating is to live
never being accursed by words, or attached to fatal feelings of hurt;
how delightful and inspirational is to achieve
every possible joy that only faith can guarantee with a simple oath...


Footsteps, be attentive and shrewd,
look out for the one slandering with the tongue of the lewd;
eyes, judge people by their external appearance to minimize danger,
the distrustful look reflects the turmoil of their soul lucidly molded by Lucifer...   


Compassion can mitigate the misery of a miscreant,
and possibly transform his or her appearance with repentance,
never being accursed by words hailed from angry mouths;
if execution is justice, death won't change anybody's heart...

Premium Member dreaming of life

Thanatos granted him a morbid dream in overdrive
the grim reaper at first in the distance of slumber
quietly wielded a blunt axe in dendritic surprise
as if to prolong agony and awakening of the slaughter

both victim and perpetrator of his unwilling demise
he did not put up much of a fight or resistance
knowing full well that meaning might come on arousal
in the shadows maybe but still coherent and lucidly clear

it was not unpleasant no anger fear nor resentment
more nonplussed and startling in surrender and disguise
the end is near he conceded in rational anticipation
the only question being which final conclusion to make

Premium Member They want me to speak now

They want me to speak now you’re gone.
Find some kind of peace, something to hold on.
They want me to talk about you, the love you gave…
But I just cannot do.

You only gave me fear.
You only gave me tears.
If love for you is me a slave, love must be what you made.
I’m broken and hollow without you but at least now you’re gone fear isn’t living here too.

I can’t say the words they want me to say.
I can’t feel love when for years you treated me your way.
The drinking that led to the bruises and blood.
The silence of being locked alone in a back room.
The insults you were happy to give.
The pain you dispensed so lucidly.

Now that you’ve died and gone away.
I find myself looking at you this day.
I hope that where you are now.
You realize what you did in breaking me down.

I can’t sleep without help.
I can’t weep for myself.
I can’t sing or dance anymore.
You took so much for yourself and broke something that I can’t restore.

Thalassophobia, I Love You

they say that there's a dance hall
right beneath this lake of sawdust
where underwater towns
have gone astray
and I can hear the harpies
the bagpipes
and I can smell
the burning petals
after we set the house ablaze

the blissful ignorance
of ghosts and revolvers
is pure nonsene 
– as coup d'état of yours
still smiling distantly
but one day your goodness 
will make you lipless, my dear
and then I will lull you by
the misty weather
verdant 
fragrant
lucidly mystical
dazzling as a bell jar glance

existence matters – ad interim
and as the old gatekeeper
uses his trembling gestures
to swing the pendulum
tell me, my plain-hearted one: 
ruby red or beryl blue? 
does it really matter to you? 
with all your childish devotion

please release 
the drones

'cause thou art lost
and love is the law
love under will

Premium Member The Master Create Her

Gasping as she glimpses out of the 2D                          
The majestic colors full and in 3D                               
Beholding the markings of the Master hand          
Within the frame, expanding life in the land   
Ever all knowing the Painter understands         
As her thoughts develop lucidly aglow                   
Gaining knowledge until she finally knows    
Star dusts molded for her mortal’s uniform       
In the shape and image of the Artist’s form           
By placing her in the Garden of Eden       
To blossom alongside the one called Adam   
In the realm of choice granting sin or freedom     
An unblemished plan, She and He let her go    
Nurturing from afar and watching her grow

Premium Member My Job

Christians speak of Original Sin and  
Buddhists of Primordial Ignorance  
obscuring our Original Nature -  
primordially pure, radiantly clear, lucidly awake.  

My body and my mind know nothing   
of this nature,  
since their habits are otherwise, 
without the blessing of lineage to point out  
there is something more than sin and ignorance,  
something those two continually defile and ignore. 

My body and mind are ignorant, 
but that’s just the illusion they prefer.  
My job is to train them otherwise.

Milkyway

I am the MILKY WAY.

I am Mechanically Meticulous,
Maneuvering my way through life with
Malleability,
not showing the true Masterpiece of my Mind
(complex like the Milky Way).

I am an Interworking of 
1% Idiocracy,
10% Ineluctable,
15% Incisiveness,
5% Insufficient,
7.5% Insatiable,
2.5% Invisible,
10% Infantile,
and
50% Incomprehensible,
101% of Ian
 (A puzzle).

I am a Lionheart Lilium 
Lucidly blossoming into a 
Lackadaisical dimension
in which I Long to Liberate
my ideas from the Lucifer-Likeness of
the universe that I Live in
(My ideas are being confined).

I am a Kinetic force to be reckoned with,
put on a Kollision Kourse from
Konception to Katastrophe
eradicating those in my way,
(I can’t be stopped)

I am Young,
Yearning for wisdom ahead of my Years,
Yet Yoked by the Youth-like longing
of my elders
(caged by the generations of adults wishing to be a child, keeping me child-like).

I am Weary,
Wainscoted with Worry,
by the World I once Welcomed With Wide arms,
Wondering When the Worries created by my past Will
Wither away
(distressed by my past).

I Am An Adventurous 
Apollo 1,
Abstracted then Awakened by the
Annihilation of myself,
forced to Admit
Absolute failure,
but then Amazed by the gate of success
(I do Fail, but I must learn from failure).

I am Yawning 
at the Earth’s attempt to impress me,
Yet I Yell eternally
at it’s ignorance to the 
great wonder that I contain.

I am the MILKY WAY.

Ode To My Neighbour the Woodpeckers

By Sashi. Prabhu(zeauoxian) 1/3/2012.

Often, I glimpse from my roof top garden, leftward,
From the sedentary swing but I know the descent of woodpeckers have soared.

From the vertical column sans  a crown of leaves  of rotted dead wood,
Once, which was in its own right a magnificent coconut tree where it stood.

Freshness, splendor, Vitality and flexibility of a live tree all depleted and gone,
T’was a pertinent choice for the woodpecker mates to build a home foregone.

Abundantly birdies flock, Pigeons, robins, mynahs, hornbills, cranes and parrots,
On the evergreen nearby tamarind tree, but the woodpeckers my eyes  ferrets.

From that eventful day my eyes they set upon,
Their wood pecking bills  would on the bark sculpt and impinge on.

A homely hole to drill,
Their head moving rhythmically and looks like a cap with red frill.

Twenty five days back they first arrived I lucidly recollect,
Ten days, a pair of hatched altricial chicks, mates from adversaries’ have to protect.

One morn had me glancing to the oval cavital hole on the bark,
And feasted my eyes on feeding chicks being readied, their lives to embark.


Blissful and content , I recollect now  I sat a bit longer to observe and discern,
Glorious hues, auger bill, cap with red frills, of the peckers as they take their unambiguous turns.

To zip across like beige, buttery yellow plumaged darts across the lush foliage all green,
Within, watchable bounds to fetch, insects, worms and saps as nutriment routine.

The chicks I saw they peek out of the shielded barky holes with awe,
Strength it seems to me have filled their wings bill and sharpened claw.

Now I wonder if I can listen to the joyous feminine “chrr”
and the  shrill masculine “kwirr”.

As the young chick in the hole frolicking, giving it a try to fly,
Away in the wide world after saying a good bye onto the sky very high…………

Now the mates without emotions, kerfuffle and ado,
To each other, their home and their prying neighbour me have bid   “adieu”.

Often, I glimpse from my roof top garden, leftward,
From the sedentary swing but I know the descent of woodpeckers have soared

A Heavenly Conversation

After a quite long time
Leaning on dad's shoulder warm
Like a newly speaking child
Babbling trivial stories wildly

Showing my poetry on soup's first book
Sharing the biscuit ice-cream I cooked 
Asking him to review the paintings I've drawn
And complaining badly about the relatives gone

Ravished by his sudden arrival
I saw a gleam of hope in survival
When I was lucidly expounding the episodes 
All he did was Laughing out loud

" Hey, kutti, Do you think I've been faraway?
Don't you know I can't go anywhere away?
I am still here watching all the happenings
Now, come, just relax and speak to me"

Uttered he, subtly in my dream 
The warmth, the caress, the secured feel
Made me feel the plot so real and surreal 
Oh! How I wish the dream not to end!

Premium Member Dreamtime: My Exorcism

I invented something quite peculiar
Last night
In my lucid dream

My neo commanded my allo-cortex
To prepare allusions to be downloaded
Upon returning to my physical presence 

Caught in middle-sleep, guardians of satan
Were mocking the death and resurrection
Of Jesus Christ, shouting and laughingly
Pronouncing God The Father and Jesus
The Son as "the two lunatics"

Every direction I faced, the 'alien race'
Of towering blondes blocked my escape

Knowing I had lucidly dreamt a downloadable
File to be recovered once awake, I summarily
Accomplished this by attaching a small device
To the frontal-lobe side of my skull and

Activated the sensory-absorbing module

Instantly slipping back into my lucid dream
Allowing edits to be re-programmed

I was able to disrupt the satanic bonds
Holding me captive and cast out the
Demons that possessed me

Declaring the Lord Jesus Christ as my
Savior and Ruler of the Light that shall
Set man free!

Once again returning to my physical realm
I was even more determined to

Spread
His
Love
Upon
The World!
