Long Luminosity Poems

"Oak" 

The guardians
stood around and 
shook their heads

great thoughts 
quivering 
from the ground, roots up, 

as if to walk 
confidently 
with great armies

yet hesitation 
was witnessed
in their waving gestures

perplexed 
and touching 
green crowns, 

there they...

  MAGDALENE : JEWEL OF JESUS 


She was the Chosen
a beckoned one
to ignite His speeches 
smooth it with her own
illustrious strength
‘Courage against Odds’
marked her inner Jewel

RED SEA

At the mouth I lay splayed
blood trickling, slowly dripping into soft mud or red Akashic ink

RightWing evangelical Capitalists
competitively invested in StraightWhiteMale privilege,

And win-ego/win-ecopolitical LeftWing
multiculturally democratic
prominent LiberalLovers
of EarthRights ecofeminist solidarity

Might together stop
to polyculturally notice

Capitalist competitive debates
do not remember
or co-invest in win/win Left/Right dialogue

Seeking bilateral resolutions
also bicameral-interior solutions,

Capital-fed RightWing fundamentalism
of Either/Or reductive

BREAKING THE SILENCE : NO MORE

Sponsored by Ink Empress 

Glass shattered a
Saturday afternoon tea ~

Silence holds steady
black fleeced momentum 
for its own ripping
when lightning as whipping 
fire from Heartbeat of
Sun slashes its Void

“As God’s spark ensouling organic form,
I am that presence which cannot be named,
felt within as a magnetic bliss storm,
divine pulsation that cannot be tamed,
gentled by His touch, within body framed.
I am that which transcends both...

"betwixt the pulse of our heartbeat
simply present, head-heart linking
dwelling in time stretched blissful peace
awareness became unblinking" ~Unseeking Seeker

I feel the surging bloom of bewitching butterflies,
fluttering in sync to cosmic sage and
saffron sparks~
sailing amidst waves of...

In the beginning, all that was, was living light eternal
Vibrant in time and space dissolved ineffable peace
Pulsating endlessly in a singularity transcendental 
Sans identity, with no attribute, we were and still are
One without a second,...

Alfredo always abhorred angry approaches
After an amigo accosted after an argument
And, afterward, Alfredo abstained arguing,

Because blackening bruises betrayed blather
Berniccio blindly behaved better, bravely
Becoming brotherly before blasting bullies!

Carefully commandeering calmer Carlos,
Claiming cool comradeship courageously
Communicated clever candid...

We as soul, are living light
Complete but yet an infant
Shaped by God, in His image
We reside in bliss of heaven
But as a receptor, not creator

God wishes that we be as He
So immerses us into duality...

Idyllic reverie during break of day

May today bring unbridled bliss 
delivered courtesy sunshine kissed
giving Midas a run for his money.

When the last trace of night 
evaporates analogous to milky hue,
whereat a dreamy state 
pervades thy...

There was a moment when I dreamed – prayed
For this day, this promise, this light – shadowed by sensitivity
Love pouring out serenity in me, challenging my heart
To listen to the intimacy, the passion, the genuine...

Coming in from outside,
Yang's deductive reception
Going out from inside,
Yintegral co-perceptions

Before nature became outside physical perception
inside spirit remained metaphysically direct intuitive reception,
ecologically wealthy 
resonantly thriving
intimate inside spirit
outside nature co-relations

We also felt
polytheistic
mystic 
holistically healthy resilient co-passions

For quenching

refilling...

Eerily, I seem to wake
At the droning dusk
To feed my hate
To quench my lust
To salvage the young
And drink them clear of their sweet rum.

Hauntingly, I approach.
As quiet as a rodents burst
Danger sends its shuddering calls
But...

To quantify an equation,
takes more than mere calculation,
Take the sun and moon, 
now consider they’re coordinations,
One 8 light minutes from earth, 
other just a single light second,
Both appear the same size in the sky,

One thwarts the burn of troubled mires,
reserves Myself for My own lot.
The other bids I jump into the fire
and offer everything I’ve got.
One draws me up, the other down,
one draws me back, the other out,

Each shorter than the last, each with more adoration as i exhale every molecule of trial and error.

I'm at the mall
waiting for my new lenses
to find their inside home
in my old outside frames,

Hopefully
not like new wine
in old 
opaque skins.

I try to engage
with an anthro-war story,
"The Invisible Woman"

Feeling myself silently camouflaged
in a sedate...

Gnarled and twisted, gangly, forlorn,
the mirror encompasses the product of scorn.
A large withered beast, the scourge of the earth,
stands in view of himself without mirth.

Heavy of heart he's been forced into exile,
once a renowned litigator...

EcoPolitical
and EcoLogical
and just plain logical conclusions
to Left-hemisphere hegemony

Pedantically evangelical about the monopolistic merits
of deductive
reductive
dogmatic
dualistic dominance

Is further business as competitively usual
straight white patriarchal
from-above RightWing
disempowering pathological tragedy
through unenlightened 
Either True and Healthy and Safe
Or False and Sick...

Anna Belle 1619 (Part One)

She set out to Jamestown in 1619
She's a Nordic ship on the sea
She's purple in shades in streams
She bathes in the Caribbean breeze
She needs no bard's flattery
No barroom cajolery
Only God with...
