greed-fuelled
knowing all
blind to the
supernatural

I am
“As God’s spark ensouling organic form,
I am that presence which cannot be named,
felt within as a magnetic bliss storm,

Brave Heart
"Brave Heart"
O what Leonine love
could sway
iron clad heart
to move closer
reflection
watches stealth like

kneads softly
some kind need
from altered

wrong gone right
an eye remains
genuine to see
evermore clearly

Twilight Hours
In the twilight hours I lie
On my back face-up closed-eyes facing the sky
I am clarity
Not fully awake or asleep
Free of prejudiced mind and sanity
And my mind wanders
Snippets of thoughts and assessments
Judgements and decisions...

A Most Disruptive Sleep Psyche Violently Pummeled

exerted to no avail.
Exhaustion pounded noggin

Life's Fate
Old servile sleep descends on heavy wings
From laden summits wrapped in icy clouds
When, glassy-eyed, the owl cold midnight rings
And snowy mist the starry light enshrouds.
Atop the ancient firs, the birds lie still
And cling...
