Lower-in by Hand

Now it’s come to our attention 
Of a matter needing mention 
It concerns nature’s call
And applies to one and all.

You may think us rather rash
But this issue’s creating a splash
It concerns the alarming notion
Of abnormally large bowel motions.

In the interests of health and safety 
It’s a workplace obligation you see
The CEO now demands
Anything over 10 pounds must be lowered in by hand.

To my lower Self

Come back to the refuge; Lets take a trip inside. No shadow can see you here, the perfect place to hide. Come back to the refuge, the largest space of all. Theres room for all your hopes and dreams, so you can bring them all. Come back to the refuge, there's power you can find; Silence is the kingdom, lost somewhere behind your mind. Come back to the refuge, the great ones wait for you; Through white light to fields of green, and skies the bluest blue; Come back to the refuge, I know its been a while, but time's a lie, so please dont sigh - just come back with a smile! Come back to the refuge, do you still know the way? Let go of thinking without any effort, and sit like that today. Come back to the refuge, put down those heavy bags! The present is a gift, it doesnt matter how its wrapped. Come back to the refuge, the journey is alone; But once your near, youl feel me here; Because the refuge is my home... Signed - HIGHER SELF.

Peter's Plateau

Always following company policy
you set a good example and it showed
qualified at your level of incompetence
while rather than carry the can
you continued to kick it down the road
and I'll be the first to say I'm last in line
on the lower echelon boot-licking list
but please trust and do keep in mind
by me the cheeks of your behind
are not about to be bussed or kissed
I know at work I am junior-most man
on the promotion ladder totem pole
but on the whole you've surrounded yourself
with employees who are quite inferior
and tho' overall you may be the boss
no you are not my superior

Premium Member Lower the Heat, Turn Off the Lights

Every dollar that I spend 
Is one less for you in the end 
Think about that concept friend
It's not that hard to comprehend

Premium Member waking through lower realms

the truth is inconvenient 
as also unapologetic 
but when voiced
is resisted

conflict looms
not of our making
we view as unfortunate 
the decline of righteousness 

although outcomes matter not
we stand for what is honest
nonchalantly observing
deviousness at play

it is not for us
to educate the other
but we would lessen ourself
if we cowardly look the other way


Premium Member Lower Respiratory Infection

pretty sure I have strep throat
try to doctor myself for a week
miss two days of work
expected to miss one day

kill myself doing double work the next two days
exhausted on the weekend, sleep most of it
the next week coughing and hacking
feels like pneumonia

go to work anyway, determined not to miss any more days
end up going to the doctor on Tuesday after work
She writes me an excuse to stay home three more days
I know my boss is not pleased

crazy for someone who never misses work
to miss five days in two work weeks
I am beyond tired of this lower respiratory infection
which has taken every ounce of my strength

Premium Member Lower Back Pain

lower back pain
ow! ow! ow!
hurts to sit
hurts to stand
hurts to lie down
It feels like someone kicked me in the kidneys
I remember my dad’s ice packs
He had the same infliction
Thanks Dad

Premium Member The Lower Realms

The soul wanderer reached a lower realm
He was offered Siddhis, women and wealth 
Love suffused heart, having God at the helm
Saw ego’s serpentine approach in stealth

What avail power, when God search our aim
Why pander to lust, since life ebbs away
Once enlivened by bliss, we’re not the same
Rapture by day and night, that’s here to stay

Ensouling mind-body, love flame steady
Joyous soul entwines with Holy Spirit
Gong of truth within signals we’re ready
To plunge in the void and reach the summit

All’s enabled when desires we let go
Renounce oh hermit, cravings of ego

In lower realms, where darkness reigns
Knowing upon us dawns
Trauma bonding with ego chains
Soul before evil fawns

Yet here too we are free
Sans lust, hate and envy
If we so choose to be

Fear overwhelms
In lower realms

Premium Member In Lower Realms

In lower realms, where darkness reigns
Lust and rage dominate
Love’s opaqued by dark feral stains
Souls tremble at hell’s gate

Love with love doesn’t pair
Angels too tread with care
Save The Buddha, none dare

Fear overwhelms
In lower realms

Premium Member Higher and Lower Mind

We 
see fear
approaching.
We do not fight.
We examine fear
knowing it as alien,
viewing it as an insect,
smiling and flicking it away.
All our narrow ego borne urges
are henceforth dealt by us in this manner.

Endowed with both, higher and lower mind,
we use fragmented thought as of need,
while for the most part, resting it.
We are where we choose to be.
Why then, should fear prevail?
We are neither mind,
nor the body.
What we are,
is pure
bliss!

Premium Member Lower Regions

There lived a lady named Grace
She sure had a gorgeous young face
The gents would swoon
And howl at the moon
Setting their lower regions aflame
