His empty mind no longer projects
delusion, dreaming, dullness

Imagination
Hence, I plunge into imagination to encumber suffering,
Athwart are the horizons wider than my pride,
I, one but three, such a symbolic trope, the Trinity,
A gorgeous exaltation gorged into voracity, itself.
The good is near me! The...

Isomer
My love dissipated into the stagnant night.
The element of hope dissociated, evaporating,
Nebulized by the lungs.
In great heaving gasps and salty residuum,
It left me
Over the hours, the weeks, the years
you did not come.
Thickly the...

Death of a Loved One
Death of a loved one
Fifty-five years! More or less! I did not know, then,
How, to your adieu, o mother, I said Amen;
Later, like the ache of an amputated limb,
Existence, like a gloom-glaring jail cell, grew...

Unending Joy

resident here in body prison

with each function having two polarities
rotating automatically in continuity
between manifestations external

Shifting Horizons
we set the alarm to go off hourly
to take stock of emotions patiently
compelling us to make note of stupor
wherein instincts determine our stature
far cry from watching our thoughts mindfully
gently thus shifting consciousness fulcrum

Obviate Need To Forgive
The need to forgive is oft for self-healing,
that we may be at ease,
so we pretend to let go of hurtful feeling,
happy as heart contractions cease,
obtaining from pain release.
Yet, neither repression nor sublimation
is the answer dear...

Tail Wagging Dog
Any consciousness contracting thought
Is ego begot
Having its roots in fear & desire
In the domain of transience being the ego’s lair
Our mind is in a fog
Because we allow the tail to wag the dog
Relegating the role...

Path To Freedom
Descent and ascent
Through vibration spectrum
May fan fires of feral sentiment
Enmeshing our soul in ego residuum
To feel fully by touch we enter trance
Leading to dreamy state of stupor
Indulgence in earthy dalliance
Makes endless our caper

Just Stating the Obvious Poetry Contest

either blissful joy or agitation
within vibrant void of stillness

Vbt Practice 31 of 112
This practice asks us to get to the root
Of everything ... forsooth!
We meditate
Contemplate
Shifting from gross to subtle
Layer by layer cognition spherical
Until we get to the subtlest
Rarified ... finest
For instance if we take matter

Supreme Energy, fluid nothing, effervescent Om:
Structured universal life, matter’s unfolding cosmos;
Exhilarating evolution, expanding along the physicals.

The body stays not, creation demolish not.

Life Journey
as we amble along
osmotically imbibing
intuitively assimilating
the divine love song
the flowing continuum
gently shapes our soul

walking thus we go afar
along a path beauteous
vivified by bliss rapturous

Purity of Intent
“Is each breath devoid of ego residuum?
Does love colour our aliveness continuum?”

Each

is poignant,
in pregnant pause,
seeking our embrace,
suffused in tenderness,
infused with childlike wonder,
to fill the void with love and light.
Oh hermit! Let our glance be gentle,

Try This Yo-Yo Meditation
As we raise our vibration
From ego to bliss elation
Without cause
We may pause
Descending back into duality
Into memory drawn ferality
Then pause again
Tranquility regain
Nonchalantly looking
Without associating
Awareness with attention shifting
Flowing feeling without resisting
And yet are unbound
As we go...

Forgiveness
Agitation within stirring
Our consciousness contracting
Mindful presence clearly does feel
Spiralling thought forms lacking appeal
From the void of stillness we then look in
An aspect of us has body association
Constantly anticipating outcomes
Clingy glue of ego residuum
