Ashtavakra Gita Verse 11:6
“I am not the body, nor is the body my possession—
I am Awareness itself.”
One who realizes this for certain
has no memory of things done or left undone.
There is only the Absolute.”

Wherein Man's Dark Curse, Felled the Olympic Gods', Part One
Wherein Man's Dark Curse, Felled The Olympic Gods',
Part One
(I.)
Thus to blindness, the fallen god was blindly bound
In a blacken tragedy, doomed to darken earth:
Nature then refused to its soothing music sound
That of existence, death...

Rain
There’s something ornately comforting, in a downpour of a day’s healthy rain
So replenishing, cleansing, as renewing, the ultimate giver to feed life’s grain
As standing undercover feeling the smaller flecks of the rain against your skin
With...

Well Now Then
A template swap is a switch over to a swimming sword. Swordfish are very pleased at this and dunk their noses into goblets in a godlike fashion. Such etiquette in a swim. Formational framework finds...

Hippopotamus Having Hyperactivity
Hyperthermia can be caused by standing in slip streams in sluice dumps. It never really fails if ice water can run a lake from a rusted tap. And the mid morning broken by the drip...

Negative Instilled
The king is deception the queen clothed is greed
A tidal wave of tyrant power, overstocking their supplies while we suffer and bleed but I see life through brand new eyes, breaking all ties with a...

Aaaaccchhhooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
The pointed ears of a snail can be quite ornate really. Especially if adorned with precious stones as earrings. Buffaloes bulbous brows bear banging bunions. Marvellous. Just marvellous it is to watch the glass moving...

Ireland - a Divided Island Part One
born under the sea, an irresistible force
two bodies reluctantly embrace, shunting, shifting, tectonic drifting
alongside the southern Iapetus Ocean
equatorial deep-time child of Laurentia and Avalonia
journey northward, surfacing, submerging

Let It Out
What's behind the smiles
What's behind the sparkle in your eyes
Is it tears?
Fears?
The laughter
The craziness and banter
The fun weirdness
The mere queerness
A wall you put up to the worlds eyes
Even to those you love there are lies
To...

Four Funerals and No Weddings
The past few weeks have been so tough
As you can clearly see
Four funerals for us to attend
But its not made me teary
The first was Aedan’s he was a lovely young man

The Sahasrara
Imagine in crown, an ethereal hole,
a portal linking us to vastness of space,
wherein formless presence, or what we call soul,
brings back to form the outpourings of God’s grace,
manifest as bliss mists that make us feel...

Don'T Get Me Started On Milk
So is it just me or is toast weird
bare with me so
bakers train for years
To produce these
beautiful pillow bouncy castles of air caves
surrounded by mouth crumbling battlements
crusts that disintegrate at a tremble
they learn to knead...

Macabre Body Art
Dead glass pipes reproduced singing drops to pitter patter amid flesh.
Flesh stretching between two flinching to open lids.
Pale blue lips creasing blisters that welcomed warm breath.
Dilation of hazel nut marbles caught the...

Earth Life Struggle Soul Choice
Earth life struggle, soul choice made by free will
Facing turbid winds, inhospitable
Challenges shapen us, upon the anvil
Until love enabled, consciousness stable
With clear light veiled, in this form we stumble
Weary from suffering, that makes...

Where Am I
Where's the firey temper that I used to know
Where's the passion for life and fun
Where's the love that was so strong that
emotions would overspill and make me cry...
... with happiness
Where's the energy I used...

A Cup Runneth Over
Oh hermit, in staid stillness sit
Transcending every opposite
Imbibing nectar of that bliss
Making consciousness composite
Negate not truth of here, now, this
Desire's a bottomless abyss
So be still and let dark voids fill
Feeling joy, where nothing's amiss
Surrender fully...

How was the universe created
In God’s heart an intent arose,
which we may simply call His will,
to manifest the universe,
where agape love may overspill.
God conjured earth, water and fire
which are present in every form
and once this knowing we acquire,
bastions...

Thankfulness From Birth To Death - 1 Thessalonians 5: 18
Looking back over all of one’s life
one was to stop and ponder so much
so many roads I could have went
but through it you see God’s tender touch
The providence of God is so vast
so many evidences...

Ottava rima
When the Flame Flickers
Heart contractions, a wake up call
Moments when we fail to stand tall
It almost seems we’re in a dream
Blockaded by a mere thought wall
Fears and desires, that inwards stream
Hollow, shallow, ego spawned scheme
Void-centric joyous soul’s immune

Why I became a poet
When the sable ink flirted with the quill
How my muse blushed and blotted with a thrill
Upon parchment that submitted at will
To the words that began to overspill
At school I discovered 'tram' rhymed with 'scram'
And...
