Premium Member The Paradiddle of Being: A Rhythmic Meditation Pt1
In the beginning was the Single Stroke Roll— left-right, left-right, the primordial heartbeat of existence itself, each alternation a binary choice between being and non-being, the eternal paradiddle of consciousness striking against the drumhead of reality. Listen: the Buzz Roll of morning traffic ten thousand souls creating multiple bounces against the stretched skin of commuter silence each ghost note a rhythmic prayer unheard each...

The Driftwood Hut
There between the sandy dunes And the ageless azure shore Stood a little driftwood hut That I’d never seen before The beach grass waved and whispered And the ocean waved and roared As I found myself enticed To step inside the door Who had built this humble house This sturdy little shell To listen to the sea’s song in Or let some hermit dwell? Or maybe it...

MEDITATION OF A LOCKED HEART

To be a free and just man is not a crime. No mask, no role to play before these clowns. I embrace the pain beneath my skin. I laugh at the vile ramblings of these treacherous minds. Their...

Premium Member Waking To Duality
(“Dragon’s Eye”, 2024, original encaustic) Waking To Duality I wake from a dream Where I’d been in nondual samadhi A vivid clarity of thoughtless meditation I tried to sustain once awake Until I realized I probably have such dreams All the time and never know.

Yet for forty five years I’ve been doing it In one form or another And for much of that I was trying To achieve something or arrive somewhere, Which was clearly something I thought. Now, older, if not wiser, Certainly less energetic...

Lake House Meditation
Early afternoon trip all day out on crystalline, mirror lake. the delicate surface that shatters, when I plunge off old dock crafted in clay orange beach, where I can see the shadow of leaves kaleidoscope in the white sunlight below the water, diving to abstruse gatherings of perhaps wizards or some society from long time ago,...
