Long Presupposes Poems

History unfolds reflective evolution
as culture nutrition values inform economic health.

Just as currency only carries values humans supply
as a society of economic transactors
so my own paltry sums can only carry those values
I am willing to re-invest...

If cleanliness
thrives next to godliness,
could wealthy White Houses,
slick and in their capital-sucking groove,
survive when paired with homelessness?

This question presupposes
perhaps a radical view
that divine powers are more homeless
than secured behind military-industrialized,
greed capitalized,
plutocratic White Houses.

Is your god's...

As noses go, I’d say mine is okay
if it is viewed by someone from the front.
But if you look at it another way,
it’s not so wonderful; let me be blunt.

My nose is long, and if...

The lioness stares at the world with rigid eyes
Vacuous emotions replaced by terror in me rise
This is a picture of probable consequence 
That lures and destroy us outside the rule of sense

When I was younger...

Conventionally in breath based meditation 
We watch breath and then quieten attention

Our orientation still & silent watching our breath flow 

Meditation as thought free stillness a counsel superfluous...

At last my secret's out – now I can sit and write a spell.
An author fashions means of flight for dormant clientele.
Away to lofty heights of thought...an album, shall I write,

bliss manifest
first resisted
then accepted
finally awaited
breath by breath
thus arousing
within heart
an expectation
of benediction
by God bestowed

our anticipation 
is a visualisation
memory induced
hoping our form
is bliss energised
in unending renewal

this subtle desire
is alright per say 
yet it presupposes
that we’re this body
and...

LEAVES, LEAVES, LEAVES

Leaves of life
Maybe swaying and it maybe drying
Leaves when green are with life
But leaves on ground can be gone and done.

Leaves presupposes lives
It’s counted like calendar days
Days, months,  and into a year

The fact that we ensoul this body-mind
presupposes bondage to feeble form,
thus senses five, gender and habits bind,
self-blocking the flow of bliss currents warm.

Fear of freedom keeps us bound in a cage

Speckled attention flowing through time
Flitting from moment to moment 
Sifts the grime, from pulsations sublime 
Choosing as of hearts sentiment 

Free will choice, presupposes options
We imbibe but one frequency
Our bondage is this limitation 
Feeling incomplete,...

The 20-pound butterball turkey rests 
On a table laden with condiments;
We bow our heads, reach out our hands and bless
And say grace which presupposes our content.

But as we eat, the elephant harrumphs
To lead our banter...

It takes a spine spun of steel
To forgive a hateful infliction.
Many are wont to let it fester
Mining malignity of malediction.

For them `tis a wound to wear
With self-righteous indignation.
They herald the hurt as if a gift
And...
