Premium Member Rites of Passage

Each Christmas we all gathered there,
‘Aunt Clare, has more room ,after all’ with
her trestled tables and chair.

Grown-ups swigging their brown bottled ale,
young-uns, lemonade with paper straw,
VE style parties, once more.

Lunch over, the voice decibels rose,
raucus laughter oiled by the beer
brought forth more plates of festive cheer.

Cards slid noiselessly over the American
cloth, copper coins switching from pot to pot,
enthralled children watching on, ‘til

banished with a special treat, to the cold
stairs, or now bare front room, or to play
out in the deserted  twilight street.

Every year the ritual was much the same,
a  family ‘bring and share’ , long before
 such gatherings were given this name.

Ice Sleep Quickly

Ice Sleep Quickly...

Slowly counting backwards from one hundred
if restless, yet most every night/early morning,
when tiredness defeats ability to remain alert
though rarely these days no difficulty to dream
way before mentally mouthing the number zero,

a segue way into unconscious state disengages
awareness, nor does yours truly recount numb
burr, nor REM member upon awakening hours
later how far from first triple digit to nought, I
ceased noiselessly iterated theoretical string of

symbols (representing whole sum quantity), the
likes linkedin to the Hindu-Arabic numeral cyst-
stem attributed to two Indian mathematicians awk
credited with developing mode to abstract former
lee bird den some assignation expressing a short

shorthand to conveniently represent a numerical
value, honor belongs to Aryabhata of Kushuma-
pura developed the place-value notation in the
fifth century, and about one hundred years later
Brahmagupta introduced important symbol for

zero, without such (now obvious) methodology,
this nocturnal primate, would most likely resort
to awkward, bulky, clumsy, et cetera alternative,
sans Roman numerals silently with eyelids shut
tight, thus imagine if ye will this sir soundlessly

enunciating c, xcix, xcviii...praying to dog never
reaching the lowest solitary i, cuz this mister, he
would never be accountable waking bolt upright
resembling a zombie emitting nought a peep, cuz
this suddenly duped frenzied hotmail, would have
zero choice!

Premium Member Twilight Rain

The silver sky gently mists,
shrouding trees, emerald dark,
with echoes of mystery.
Soft, beautiful and cold is the melody
the wind blows, far away
through branch and lilting bough.
All is quiet, with the deep-breathing silence
of cool, evening peace. 

The air, fresh and cold, enveloping light with grey;
carrying with it the harmony of
crickets and birds. Keeping the ancient 
twilight tryst they sing a little warmth amidst 
the charcoal world, and a gust in the shielding leaves
speaks in barely a whisper:
beckoning…
While I lay, still as silence – 

Fingers pressed upon the chilled glass,
the wind noiselessly billowing
the soft, pale curtains.
I reach for a cold, sad, 
beautiful world -
until the rain begins to fall.
Alone, breathing slow and deep,
I smile.

Premium Member The Bubble of Ignorance

The oneness
Absolute
Which is
Which we are
Always
Is the all
And so ...
This bubble ...
Imaginary bubble
Of ignorance 
Is not
Yet the truth is ...
Our consciousness 
Is entrapped in it
For the moment
This bubble ...
Contains oneness
Is surrounded
By oneness
And so ...
It is but
An imaginary film
A fleeting film
Of form
Our attention being
On the surface 
Of this film
Of duality
To experience duality
If we allow ...
Our consciousness
To get stuck
To this film
We are entrapped in it
Freedom ...
Which always was
Which always is
Is in not doing
But undoing
Attachment of clinging
Sticking
To this film
Of duality
And this is all ...
There is to it

The bubble of ignorance 
Which never was
Bursts noiselessly 
In stillness

Marauders On a Night Raid

(alternately titled ringleader Harris hooligan,
Hence, any resemblance 
     between characters port
rayed, and living persons 
     purely coincidental.)

Claim to fame creating
     an overnight sensational
     boom town explained
     by lodestone of zinc
while the town
     crier fast asleep
     (until next to last 21st sentry
     caught up on

     much needed
     protracted wink),
his dreams informed
     him of a getaway,
     whereat just
     with mental power to think,
could render forth pour
     favor riches aplenty

     appearing once 
     one did awake
     meanwhile oblivious 
     to encroaching hoodlums,
     whom didst blithely slink,
(analogous to a
     waltzing skater on a smooth
     as glass ice rink,

whereat razor sharp blades
     noiselessly sliced cold air
     with an imaginary plink),
thus while one man guard
     zonked out, sans steeped
     in a glistening escapade
     cuddling, nestling, and snuggling
     with his pet mink

Hun dread scandalous vandals
     (Atilla among them)
     word less lee
     located weakest linkedin chink
coalescing, comprising,
     and constituting,
     an otherwise excel lent access
     duff fence sieve link

     iron wrought chained
     formerly mistakenly invincible
     against a Trojan
     Horse, now even
     vulnerable to a dolled up,
     decked out disguised rat fink,
     slithering snake like afore
     the zoned out patrol

     did awaken and blink
only after invasion of swiftly
     styled, harried tailored,
     foo fighting beastie boys
ex post facto, when steely

     dan sing motley crue
     made discernible noise
far to late for the
     "FAKE" Don to trumpet
successful "Stormy Daniels"
     counter attacking ploys.

Premium Member Single Amber Eye

I see
The single eye
It approaches
In stillness 

Implants, enables
Unadulterated wisdom
Singular vision
In stillness 

The void within fills
With love divine
Which we become
In stillness 

Love we were
Love we are
Embraced in joy
In stillness 

The bubbles of ignorance 
Which never were
Burst noiselessly 
In stillness 

The form ...
Still
Intense
Absolute!

The eyes ...
Aflame
Radiating
An amber glow!

No form, no shape ...
Just amber eyes
Merged, converged
Single all seeing eye!

Our presence ...
As the occupier
Of the vehicle
Welcomes the amber eye!

In stillness

Flashback to 30th October, 2018

Christmas Day

Christmas Day

Santa comes in the night, he comes in the night, he gently, noiselessly comes,
While the little child's heads on their pillows of white, dream of train sets and dolls and drums,
The sleigh cuts through the snow like a ship through the foam, while the soft flakes around him swirl,
Who tells him their names, I do not know but he finds the home, of each good little boy and girl,

His sleigh is long and deep and wide, it carries all number of things
Dozens of drums hanging over the side with their sticks tucked under their strings,
Not one sound of a drum is heard, not a trumpet blast is blown
As he lands on the chimney stack like a bird, and drops to the hearth like a stone

The hanging red stockings he quietly fills, till the stockings can hold no more
The little toy trains for the little wood tracks are gently set down on the floor
Then Santa floats to the roof like a bird and takes his seat on the sleigh
Not a sound or murmur is heard as he silently gallops away
He travels east and he travels west until his job is done
Christmas Day is wonderful, a day for little ones

Shadows Soundless Quotidian Shift

bohemian rhapsody parades
     amidst greensward moored
erupting profusely toward cerulean skies
     ushered with invisible rip cord
this Earthling self assigned to an (elder)
     box office catbird seat - hoard
ding a secluded nook
     upon premises of Highland (highly adored)

Manor Apartments nestled
     within bucolic (cost wise, a ford
double) Schwenksville, Pennsylvania
     (40.2562° N, 75.4638° W) explored,
sans (founded in 1684) 
     pleasantly assaultive stimuli 
     conducted brake upon metaphysical ratiocination,
     where sunshine poured
upon variegated mother nature

     arrangement, viz spectacular
     vernal suite scored
a top ten hit orchestrating
     exquisite (August) May day presentation,
     which mutely roared
bedazzling this sensate
     being overwriting gourd
     fully stocked, when brittle

     winter snowy firmament forced accord,
     asper overlaying habitat
     palimpsest akin to (sic) ward
before an a may zing exuberant poly

     chromatic onset splashed vibrant
     brilliantly colored palette, toward
this captive observer,
     where choral symphony courtesy of flora
and fauna sensational

     encore performance
     (day at the) opera captivated ensured
fixated this tethered primate royally
     impressed and allured
by aural and visual

     regalia fit for a lord
and tailor, while solar orbitz
     directed by Helios,
whose journey across
     deep purple celestial sea deplored
noiselessly casting lengthened shadows
signaling luminous hued dusk
     chariots of fire earthly domed ceiling ablaze
     pearl jam disappearance,
     when daylight blinks adieu

til the morrow, when dawn
     betakes the reins to reign cosmos chose
zing emergent rays announcing
     morning haz broken
     nudging, prodding, rousing from doze
well rested body electric,
     where energy flows
as attested from me noggin glows
nsync, sans panoply
     of soundgarden crescendo propose
zing ideal material sharing circadian rhythm
     thru the time stream yours truly rows.

Premium Member The Bubble Bursts Noiselessly

as pain within swells
to a heightened level
origin belied expectation
of null love reciprocation

such contortions tainted
delusions self anointed
do not stay with us long
as we sing the love song
reverberations of our soul
keeping us joyful & whole
birthing a throb continuous
manifesting bliss fortuitous 
as a current ever present 
within our heart resident
as soundless bliss ignition 
ecstasy defying delineation 
being our native element 
divine entwined alignment 

thus getting to stabilisation 
rapid bliss hum restoration 
stuporous thoughts rested
with ego delusion arrested
the flame of joy ever alive
to the beat to which we jive
acceptance ceasing to size
recognition where we realise
that each turbid movement 
depends upon attachment 
to nurture its life illusionary 
viewed in stillness sedentary 
from the centreless fulcrum 
of our awareness sensorium 

the play of life thus enacted 
finding we have not reacted
unfed by us the source bursts
whilst we as a mist yet thirst

for love
