I inherited a restaurant, from my parents who had retired.
It was a classy one, and only the best of staff were hired.

Overseeing its operation, was genuinely a labor of love,
As the noon warming sunshine, oversees...

“In the time when the heart beat slows” 

In the time when 
the heart beat slows
I close my eyes 
and meet you there

Sogyal Rinpoche
tells a Doors to Perception story.

Positive and negative feeling individuals
bear witness to a river.

Those more goddess-like
see this river as great
savory
fragrant
nutritious
beautifully resonant
musically harmonic
multiculturally rich,
a transporter of karmic mediation
preferring win/win cooperative
ecofeminist
green energy conservational
and black lives matter...

I'm not good at moon guessing,
but God created many a blessing;
and the moon is just one of them.
I'm neither scholar nor theologian,
but I observed that God made the
heavenly bodies, making no mention

As I look and listen,
human lives explore individual purposes,
like making breakfast,
as divine love engages co-relational meaning,
like preparing nurturing gifts
of sacred EarthTribal communion.

and widest
and most resonantly resilient

the knowledge 
acquired 
from the story
I’ve lived 
is forbidden
to be written

I listen to 
their voices
carried in the

the whispering 
of ghosts behind me

hushing me
I haunt them

the rain transports
me as if it is music
I...

"All the Pretty Words"



All the pretty words
blooming like summer jonquils
fade from the velvet fresh green tongues
and rich fecund tussled beds 
of poets and minstrels
strumming hearts with 
fingers that waltz over keys
plucking tangos from dreams of
sensitive...

Architecture of 4/4 music
left and right hand scored
harmonic balance

Four sacred spaces
of energy
surrounded by five
double-boundary lines

Staff mused structures
within bicameral
emotive harmonies
for sacred octave
enlightenment 
restorative safety help

And bilateral
cognitive integrity
with secular metaphysical
fractal-binomial DNA
regenerative health/wealth structure

Togethering
non-violent synergetic communications
in-between regenerations
of ecofeminist...

As I was in national park virunga
 and I saw a zebra 
which was giving birth and
one black and white cobra 
passed by there.
 I admired their colours 
and took some pictures 
to show my kids...

The beautiful day begins in the house.
At the end of it, all that’s left of it is the moon,
Shimmering in all the night’s light.
A door to another world opens.

We need hope, the anticipation of a future
That illuminates...
