Long Unshackling Poems

POTD 30th August 2018

And yet a sense of foreboding permeates the midnight air
Wild imaginings?  Or did shadows flit across the leaf strewn path?
No...

In the name of blood, for it is the source of life itself,
Plasma's crimson essence of liquid infusion, to the undead's
Pulsating heart.
Intravenously feeding cravings passion, through the carotid
Artery at the throat of humanity, thou'st not...

NOSTALGIA

To forget the past
Is to live as a 
Tree without roots 
To dwell on the past 
Is as a tree that does not grow 

Nostalgia for a forgotten 
Supposed time of joy abounds
When the present...

Of shoulders stooped and slow of gait
Garments hang off a frame once filled
The body drips with yesterday’s fate

An existence once filled with hate and greed
Ensnared in a mind of...

felt its imprisoned glint of gold
willed it to enlarge into a

To be twice born, baptised in the current
Dispelling forever, limitation
Truth of clear light dawns, self-luminescent 
Thus enabled by God, for co-creation

First step is, fear and desire cessation
Unshackling self from ego sediment 
Choosing death by mind...

Once I was condemned to die eternally
Found guilty without iota of a doubt
Showing human nature at its sinful best…

So miserable in my wretchedness
I was reached out by God with His mercy
When He offered His precious love’s graciousness
Paid by His blood of divine clemency.

Lust,
the phantom hand
that clipped our wings,
cracks a smile
as we tumble
like raindrops
cascading through
blankets of nimbostratus clouds,
exiled to this rugged
stone laden labyrinth

We were soaring eagles
galloping across the horizon,
banished to sprawl

as vermin,
severed from our
celestial fountainhead

We are...

It was I, and I was it,
And me, in neither lie,
Confused I stood to ever sit,

illusion spirals
engulf our being,
fickle attention

shaky awareness
in turbid currents
simply swept away
as a leaf in winds,
until we so choose
void of cessation,
here ever present,

As lower cravings
from body identity sprouting
slowly recede
when gross ferality we do weed

inner urge free of any ego stain
innate magnetic pull
as of Jonathan Livingston Seagull
thirst for flight
to thought transcending height 
a burning yearning
with veiled...

Auschwitz horrors replayed time and again
Nurtured by hatred of prejudiced minds
Toxic fumes fabric of our soul thus stains
Humanity enmeshed in devils bind

Let the last train to Auschwitz be release
Unshackling consciousness from delusion
Transmuting lower mind, to...

whisper to me in dark places,
unshackling my mute form


revive the thousand voices,
I have sustained in a forever 
unspoken and formless
so as to be forgotten, 
it was in a night-scape,
the void of sound 
negated speech


I break...
