"And just like that, Jeanie was gone".
In the movie, Forrest Gump, Forrest
could never keep track of Jeanie,
a childhood friend he grew up with.
With the first viewing of the movie,
I was reminded of a childhood friend
for whom I cared a lot and thought that
our lives would be spent together.
Her name was also Jean.
One might say that she was the one that 'got away'
or the one I lost, but looking back, she was not the one
that God had planned for me. Until I came to realize
that fact, just like Forrest, in my heart, I kept saying,
"And just like that, Jeanie was gone". Sometimes, we
have to lose in order to gain.
I remember the time and place of that crucial conversation
when we both came to the realization that we were not meant
for each other. My chosen career was in conflict with the kind of life
to which she aspired. Sometimes, the one that got away is the one
that should have gotten away because anything otherwise would
have been a failure.
Summer hot, beautiful swimming, playing, grilling flowers, shrubs, horizon, palette seeing, painting, viewing bright, colorful rainbow

We started to grow apart long before the current rift
It wasn't personal, but necessary if you read & get the gist
We were closer than a pair of lips long before I met betrayal's kiss
I took it personal & then forgave, I just could no longer take the risk
Like peas in a pod, we grew together & nothing can change that kind of love
Change is good despite appearances not seen by the naked eye
I flew the coup so I could soar & get a view from high above
I'm not better just more evolved, viewing the world through different eyes
I'll admit I'm self-involved, obsessed with being a better me
Our paths are different, so we had to split as we follow 2 different nodes
I planted seeds that needed to grow in order to see the forest for the trees
In spirit we're still together even though we arrived at forks in the roads
It was for the best & I hope you can see I carry no animosity with me
I just took a leap & developed wings, but I needed to jump for me 2 see
One time a stickleback
Asked a tadpole what’s the craic
He replied there’s nothin’ doing
It’s just the water I was viewing
So he slurped a glass of gin
And let the stickleback begin
To swim upside down in loops
Until his eyes began to droop
I’m becoming very dizzy
Feels like the Mississippi
The stickleback then stopped
The tadpole’s eyes had nearly popped
The stickleback said sorry
Do you like calamari?
The tadpole then replied
When I’m swimming with the tide
I find it can be chewy
It turns my tail real gooey
The stickleback said no way
It makes a rather nice buffet
They then said their goodbyes
And the stickleback advised
Calamari you shouldn’t swallow
Or trouble it will follow
Good luck and take it handy
Said the tadpole sipping brandy
The stickleback swam off
To have some beer and stroganoff
Viewing out into her eyes into her soul
And I look out the window
Where is the soul?
that I spy all I see is refuge and darkness just a spot
A glimpse of sigh a missed the space dwelling blackness nigh
As hopes for spawning rituals of sunlit there's not
Viewing out into her eyes into her soul
Tis none to my surprise the beating ground
Those the mystic tears that are flowing down
To hard and harden hard and spots
Beating
Bleeding not
Viewing out into her eyes into her soul
I continue to look and I admonish
I pray for the soul to become unhardened
Ruptured so keen on the perils that seem
To unravel the woolen knot
I hope and pray this instant this day
That God will clean the window pane
Viewing out into her eyes into her soul
So I may later on look out
after out of the window and see you
and Him dancing on the bright heavenly streets paved of gold
As I now view
So
Viewing out into her eyes into her soul
Now in blissful clarity Hallelujah, Amen

Way, way out there on Planet X-42718
peering through his telescope one night late
the astronomer's eyes opened wider and wider
at what he was viewing in the lenses inside her
Will you look at that! he exclaimed in X-47218-ese
I can see through Planet E-0054's atmosphere with ease
It seems that all kinds of creatures are living down there
The news of this discovery will spark great fanfare
And so it did, and so it was that a hue and cry arose
to visit Planet E-0054 to try to get to know
who those creatures were and what they were doing
an expedition was organized for clear nights with good viewing
But the skies clouded up for a month or so
'til the green light was given for the expedition to go
There was countdown and blast-off, and things seemed ideal
yet little glitches started popping up piecemeal
Poor planning had them on top of the planet quite fast
when their radar picked up signals that left them aghast
fleets of missiles and bombs designed to blow them apart
What sort of creatures would do this? Had they no hearts?
So the expedition quickly turned back, severely disappointed
taking one last look back where the rendezvous was appointed
Yet lo and behold, there was absolutely nothing they could see
the planet's atmosphere re-polluted, from sea to garbage-strewn sea
I contemplate my words with caution
i forge my stand with speedy resolve
as my student appears lost in time..
in a secret place of daydreams where
my surreal lecture boring penetrate in
My students eyes light up and i can feel
feel the rich beat vibrating in his essence
but today were teaching discipline..
and focus to master navigate life's hurdles
am teaching the soft navigators skills
I speak in manner devoid of flattery
for unto man the path is laid ahead
and pilgrim you have to take it..
its the only jail.. the journey of life
with discipline you attain destination
A times when i yearned to achieve
A times when my future was bright
A times when i was a servant of time
i yearn to tell my student.. freedom
is freeing yourself from the jail of time
I yearn to tell my student not be
fooled by the three dimension illusion
i yearn to explain the flaw in time..
i yearn to free him from the false mindset
i yearn to point the way to liberation
Yet the beat keeps radiating from
my young student... the unconscious
booom boom radiates back and forth
its the of the joy of parting the elixir..
of freedom without knowledge of it
There is freedom in the beat my friend
there is freedom that frees the mind
and there is freedom to partake all..
the good things in life.. i teach discipline
for with it you rule the world you rule you
The path of discipline seems like a punishment
but it's whats makes you victorious.. feel..
the restraint of the bond.. restraining a free soul
adorn your soul in music but restrain your excesses
it the key to overcoming the time prison..
The time warped concept of viewing life in three dimensions
the warped context of material visualization of the divine..
an ascension of thoughts as you overcome the time constraints
and achieve peace in servitude to the divine will.. the only duty..
worth of a mortal.. worth of a god.. worth of a great mind.... sage

CODE 254

supertime..
When you watch a show for many years,
The characters you’re viewing
Become like friends; you care about
Their lives and what they’re doing.
So when the final season wraps,
It’s sad to know they’re leaving
And part of you might even do
A tiny bit of grieving.
Of course, the actors will disperse,
Their fictional creations
Abandoned as they seek some other
Brand-new adaptations.
But we, the audience, will miss
The Gallaghers of “Shameless,”
Who felt so real that their portrayers
Surely aren’t blameless.
Farewell to Frank, Fiona, Lip,
To Debbie, Carl and Ian;
To Kevin, V and all the rest
I never tired of seein’.
I thank you for 11 years
Of TV time enjoyment
And hope each actor finds, real soon,
Fulfilling new employment.
Behind Asian Eyes
Think right, speak right and do as is right,
This is what was taught; what was said,
Keeping balance in mind you will not be bereft,
But a gentle passive notion appears to me, after everything we've read,
After viewing the entire world - this is all that I found was left..
The intelligent often subtle, gentle spark of spiritual divinity,
Displays what most including oneself cannot see, as any sort of innate ability,
To reduce the mindset and the soul's own perception,
To every type of distorted misconception,
The people must return to the ways of the Dharma,
Ethics and trust are the basis of integrity,
More than this I resist not to mention,
An initial but truthful swansong of Karma,
For any man, woman or child 'tis the path to ascension,
One must at first begin to observe,
To view and to see what all beings deserve,
I found here an incline of this concept abides..
Most haven't the conscience or even the nerve,
In Asia where my heart and my life now resides,
Helping others to see is to honour and serve,
Behind Asian Eyes
bright soul intelligence,
But often intellectual honesty and so much more besides.

Opened eyes see beyond horizons everything
Behind the dirty ears of crying babies in the bath
Look up to see the future through the galaxies
Go through red lights at 80 miles per second speeding
There is no time for tickets from the traffic cop
Impossible to stop
Blinking is a sin, a sign of weakness
So move on to boardwalks clearly visible
Capture every second in the instant lens
Pretty girls in Atlantic City on the beaches
Sport sunglasses to see glass hours darkly
Shy eyes hidden behind the frames
Body too blue to view from waters depth
Wearing a yellow polka dot bikini very thin and wet
She will never enter the shallows nearly naked
Eye candy you can watch and swim in with a smile
Tender to the touch but never fall in love
Brown eyes blink when they are thinking
Green is their favorite color while by the sea
Envying since they are in to neon reasoning
Never lose sight when viewing through the looking glass
Binoculars are better for sighting pretty birds
Hazel eyes are warm from our perspective
Perception, image is everything
Moving forward in the light of day when opened
Already on your way to seeing
Automobiles can take you there
Adjust your rear view mirror cautiously
When looking from behind with opened eyes
