My thing is,
Yang dear,
EarthMother
is much RNA-green older
than mammalian red-DNA Yang.

Yes,
seniority breeds long-term nutritious merit,
I remember this history lesson
from your creation by fairy tale,
how WinWin Paradise YinYin
wonder invited Yang's Patriarchal CoPresence.

Well said,
dearest,
which is exactly why EarthMother

If I had a hashtag or even understood them,
it might be “TMI.”
I don’t lack for stories and opinions.
I’ll engage in conversations with friendly total strangers
when right away I see they share my views.

Imagine being me,...

My mind is burning, blazing, turning
With doubts and irrational drivels
My heart is livid and hardened
For it freezes in the potentials of disappointment
Of failure, downfall, and impending death
In ceasefires of never mind, and never more

Against a willowy wailing backdrop of inner chaos,
an indignant incendiary mask stifles the simmering cauldrons,
of a stoic stage clown post lachrymose performance wearily stunning yet stung,
or the surreptitious posture of the laugh it off as...

I see us
cowering within
our safety walls
of sterile
nonorganic comfort

I feel us,
almost smell us,
struggling
vacillating between pungent stink
of fear inside
and acrid
acidic anger
about life sucks outside

Emerging toward viral hate
directed against entitled Others
unwelcomed emoting immigrants
encroaching on our safe home space

It...

Rock paper scissors, 
Wizards of utopian flavored wizardry, exquisitely triumphs in every gamble beyond these doors, 
Flawless tangled reversed reflections, remain forever forbidden to thoughtless mentors, 
A cursed emotional seesaw bleeds and wrestles each end...

The Barretts of Wimpole Street

When struggling with addiction
to uncontrolled
and biologically controlling agents
and competitive outside agencies

Earth is helpful in mentoring patience
with failures of humane self-control
to extend,
feed and water
and grow mindbody wealth 
of unwalled health.

So, when possible,
as possible,
extend your compassion

We always had been well assured,
That after everything we endured;
Prayers said;
Not dead;
Are sure and certain can be cured.

All things good and bad...!


All things come to an end,
good as well as the bad!
Interim period vacillating,
between being happy and sad!

Manifesting - big and small,
leaving nothing at all - all across;
goes about in perfect harmony...

Awakening the Dream
             by Odin Roark

Even in a dream
A poet’s page
Starts blank

Restlessly
The inscrutable pen hovers 
Awareness preparing absorption
Like a dry valley of nature
Awaiting...

'O' spirits of land and Gods,
You beautify our world, 
With crops, fruits and forest roots;
Lakes flow full of precious water,
Vacillating fresh air to breath;
I kindle incense sticks, 
Embellish with colourful florets;
Gratitude you for your mercy,

Anecdotes all arousing my head

Gripping, searing , yearning,
a mother for her son,
vacillating, pride and heartache,
head wars that can’t be won,
precariously, dangling, 
by her fingertips
somewhere between hope and despair
trying hard to get a grip!
Crying, seeking, praying
a mother to her Lord,
begs...
