as we metamorphose
limited by sense perception
hemmed in by labels, mind defines
though we seem caged in space and time
we can yet transcend these confines
negating everything begin
affirming we’re not body-mind
we are the Self, dwelling within
God’s living light, loving and kind
yet what this Self is, we know not
so shift from thinking to feeling
invoking divine magnetism
imbibing bliss beats appealing

While We Metamorphose
My voice
broke
on the edge
of breath.
We stripped
the bark
from our ribs
like trees
to find
no center.
Blood
is a language
we forgot
in churches.
I held
your absence
like a flame
burning
under my tongue,
while skin
remembers
the names
we
never
spoke.
I was becoming
not better
just
closer
to the fracture
before
the old name.
And you
fell into me
like a glyph
not carved.
We did not rise
we undressed.

birth and death that need to

being mistook we burnt the book
thoughts rest, we dwell in our heart’s nest
touched by spirit, our body shook
by God’s light blest as we undressed”
I am a droplet in the vast ocean of conscience,
a minuscule dust in the planet’s atmosphere,
an expression of eternity in its timeless expanse,
yet I am myself an universe and all of time

As we metamorphose
Trust your imagination, dream, believe,
Take my hand,
I'll show you land,
that you cannot perceive.
Join me as we take a ride,
Not across the planet, but inside,
Each creature, plant and stone,
Inhabit them, and make them home.
Burn with me in dawn's sunrise,
Delight in our painting of the skies.
We'll leap with gleaming flying fish,
Soar, and dive, become a wish.
Glide through

Earthly cravings like ice melt away
Envy sarcasm and all forms of hate
Warmth of love and God’s green grace
Frees all of us red hearts celebrate
To be free of silver suffering

embroidered with empathy,
carved with clarity,

tangled in transcendence.

as we metamorphose
We chased the wind through gravel lots,
told stories in the sun-soft spots.
Spoke Spanish in the checkout line,
translated fear into “it’s fine.”
Held my brother’s hand through crowded space,
learned stillness in his silent grace.
Watched Mom brave a world not made for her,
became her voice, her messenger.
School bells rang like distant drums,
where I stood tall though doubt still

Undressed, with no pretense showing,
we'll have metamorphosed into His glory.
We can look around us then seeing all is glowing.
Beautiful development will have been our story.

In the live network
of intricate unassailable design,
invisible layer on imperceptible layer,
the latticed mind is stratified.
In the spiritual strata the devout strands
align with the innate awareness,
where the sublime sagacious patterns

As We Metamorphose
When you find the pain helps you cope
Fear not, you may still survive
Deep within hides a beam of hope
Take a breath and slowly revive
The things that don't kill you
Don't always make you stronger
The wounds run deep and true
The pain a way for you to conquer
The scars heal and slowly fade
But the agony will always remain
