Kundalini

Ida
Pingala
Sushumna
Or nebula 

Cold breath
Hot breath
No breath
Know breath

Three known channels for the flow
One burns, one cools, one is mellow 
All provide a connected glow
In pristine stillness imperceptibly slow

Abandoning focus on technique
Let us take a sneak peek
At...

the collective hubris of our indifference to ants

We walk the earth as lords of all
only judeo-christian types of course
We crush the weak and heed no call
history is written by the winners
We think ourselves the smartest race
anthills never knew Oppenheimer 
We show no...

Villanelle: Nothing So Upturns Creative Cauldrons As Retching Up Art

Villanelle: Nothing so upturns creative cauldrons as retching up art

Nothing so upturns creative cauldrons as retching up art
As the craft not art of constructing poetry for expediency
Does the poet’s art lie in not collocating words...

The Mystery of Spring

(a Salute to Howard Moss)

Although it is not yet warm,
we have shoved to the backs of closets
snow-boots, gloves, and woolen scarves, 
locked tire chains and ice scrapers
into trunks of automobiles as if
tomorrow the first bloom...

Acrostic Man: a Collaboration With Ken Duddle

Form: Acrostic
Don’t walk by,pretend not to see

Outside in the cold is no place to be

Whistle to yourself,think glad it’s not me

No-one can escape their destiny.

 

No-one can prepare for all trials of life

One day it...

The Clearing

The sordid thought thicket thrives 
within the dungeon of the dark mind,
where the web of tormenting roots wriggles,
entangles all the escape routes,
as qualm deconstructs life’s forest path. 

Unsure frail footsteps falter, 
deranged wobbly tread dithers,
the...

Freesoul

Beneath the fury of sun
Wades a wobbly nun
Stomping on thorns
Watch the teary ferns

Scars on her skin
Carrying wounds engraved
Curse devious grin
And snakes she once craved

She sucked and spitted
Bouts of venom in her blood
Tainted by flood
Of emotions...

The Little Magnetic One

From stiletto heels to flashy coiffures
  whether in braids, crochets or something new

They never ceased to shimmer in view
  and there, there, these beauts I see...

Three dames and a half
  all beautiful...

Woven

Beneath the fury of sun
Wades a wobbly nun
Stomping on thorns
Her soul burnt and torn

Scars on her skin
Carried wounds engraved
Trust, her sin
So were snakes she once craved

She sucked and spitted
Bouts of venom from her blood
Tainted by...

The Pathless Path

Ego upturns, so we learn to discern
Urge of mind-body versus cry of soul
For God we yearn, as love for love does burn
In midst of action, playing our life role

Ceasing to weigh and size, we vaporise...

Reechoes of Vertu

 A-mid shared thoughts, 
shuffled 'cross mortal uncoil,
no central judge; 
choices re-sound, choices spoil.

 Principles form an unspoken pact,
reciprocity in action, a silent (re)act.

 In trans-action of duties, a treaty defined,
acknowledgment, values, (re)flections, they bind.

Echo Return

Echo return contoured by consciousness 
Oft ignores our interconnectedness 
Sternest rebuff being indifference 
In a poignant, painful, time stretched silence
Mitigating our innate blissfulness 

Endearing touch of childlike lovingness
Vibrantly bubbling agendalessness
Burns, upturns, on facing insentience
Echo return

Hermit...
