Oscillate Poems

Premium MemberThe gunas

The gunas three represent our soul’s modes,
being darkness, desire and tranquil peace,
each taking us along different roads,
wherein the right choice secures soul’s release.

It is not denied that we’ll oscillate 
but by making steady our heart’s resolve,
ego spawned desires then no longer bait
and holding God’s hand we slowly evolve.

Whatever comes and goes is unreal,
so sagacious souls hold steady focus,
on flame of love holding promise to heal,
propelling us along heaven’s locus.

We have been bestowed with free will to choose,
sloth, rage or light as flavour of heart’s muse.

Premium MemberOne 2 Infinity and Beyond

One before the why

Neutrinos dance, the tenet

Encoded gem I

Hopi hydrogen

Unified twins, Gemini

Numbers, count by staff

Divided even

Release the energy chi

Equal scales by 2

Decide upon one

Y photon will equal c

Energy Ion

Arc flight of eagle

Ram or goat the choice be I

S- Martics be arc

Oscillate on thoughts

Fermions amount to sum

Quantum quarks made you

Unified field net

Alpha the numeric  n

N number alpha

Tau weight equals au be you

Unit be star Q

Mass measured by staff

 

 

Set started on go

Catapult be to the stars

Independent Star

Electrons are a

New negative light of  one

Cascade reason why

Elect charm at end

2 by way  of the release

Infinity roar

Now finite beyond

For I am born one with sun

It’s all inside you

None but bold be the one Thoth

Inside the fire be one

Together be the ocean

Yet the ocean be drop too

Premium MemberMetronomes and Garden Gnomes

Instead of isolation
consider oscillation 
Proof positive
is clear to see
It all boils down
to frequency
Which of these words
hits close to home
a metronome or
garden gnome?
Their differentiation 
     lies in oscillation 

Metronomes oscillate
tick-tick-tick
Garden gnomes isolate in
   s  i  l  e  n  c  e
      s  i  l  e  n  c  e
         s  i  l  e  n  c  e

Will tick-tick-tick
define your life
or silence filled with
fear and strife?
Proof positive
is clear to see
It all boils down
to frequency
Instead of isolation
consider oscillation 

Live life    one tick    at a time
Meter matters as does rhyme
Situational awareness
Won’t protect you if you’re careless
How much better at day’s end
to be found kind

Premium MemberPrayer inspired by Psalm 19:14

Feeble are senses and muddled is mind,
bewildered in this world of illusion
but by shifting to heart, loving and kind,
clear light dawns, erasing our confusion.

Love is the litmus test, which we employ,
though we confess our thoughts do oscillate,
so at times wayward ego does decoy,
for in this realm, we’re far from heaven’s gate.

We are Your child, tempestuous and wild,
so guide us dear God, with your healing hand,
that our words then be both loving and mild,
radiating divine light, as You planned.

Breath by breath in life, each moment we start,
recognising that You dwell in our heart.

doubts that arise
are beheld in surprise
signalling we are dreaming
in such thoughts so streaming

if we would have God appear
then ego must disappear
thinking process end
for soul to ascend

though we oscillate 
in time thoughts abate
load on our heart lightens
throb of magnetism heightens

Veritas

I noted the stillness
in your hands, the
casual arc of your shoulders,
a deceitful ease in your voice—

as if the world melted into your anima,
your eyes spoke the nether language
(angelicus anima).

I watched your eyes oscillate,
a tidal wave of light,
gleams of individuation
propagating outward,
devastating all disguises—
quiet fissures in the 
careful strata
of us.

A Cello's Lament

In shadows cast by candlelight's embrace,
I hold my cello close, in tender grace.
The haunting melody spills from my fingers,
Weaving a spell that lingers and lingers.

Each note a tear, each bow a sigh,
The music carries a soulful cry.
In the echoes of the strings' lament,
An angel's presence is surely sent.

With every stroke, a story unfolds,
Of beauty and sorrow, of truths untold.
The cello's voice, both fierce and mild,
Captivates like the gaze of a lost child.

The angel dances in the music's glow,
A phantom of grace in the oscillate and swing.
Bound to the song, in ethereal flight,
Enraptured by the melody's might.

Together we weave a tapestry divine,
A tale of love and loss, of joy and pine.
In the hush of the night, under the stars' gleam,
We play on, lost in the music's dream.

So let the cello cry, let the angel soar,
In harmonies that will forever endure.
For in the heart-wrenching strains we play,
A fleeting glimpse of heaven's ray.

Liquids for injections oscillate to 
attract big snakes who 
squeeze the life out of

Premium MemberBonfire Heart 2

 Where Stars Collide and Shine Ablaze
 and Passions Stir where Great Fires Rage,
 Where Internal Treasures Oscillate
 and Glow like Wild Fires with Wild Flames,
 and Ignite by the Zenith within
 to catch the Zephyr into the Calm Sea Of Bliss,
 where Bonfires Blaze there I call Home
 and Drift the Abyss, from Within I Roam,
 from Within I Sail beyond the Reaches Of Time
 beyond the Oceans Of Darkness, Into Rivers Sublime
 Into Rivers Of Light that Illumine the Nights
 that Illumine the Heart that Illumines the Minds,

 I'M A BONFIRE

having been, seen and so known
that our true Self is living light
what causes us to oscillate
in fierce winds of duality 

accepting what is as is
void-centric presence is still 
in the continuum bliss energised
delighting at slow motion awakening

Premium MemberMy truths

            “For the light of truth to appear ~
            Negate each desire and every fear”
                        ~ quote by poet
         

                        Although I dwell in decaying form,
            I know I’m not this organic body mind,
since in deep meditation I’ve been, seen and so known,
truth of my pure, eternal being, at a singularity point,
                        living light, at peace, feeling complete.
To discern the truth, the pathless path simply requires this:
oscillate attention between objects and space, as a nonchalant witness.
      Earth is a school, where in pulse dual, overcoming adversities 
            we grow in love, wisdom and in power,
                        which is the will of God.
This is my truth, which I have imbibed by touch,
            a knowing available to all, at any moment in time, 
      upon shifting from head to heart,
                        blissful presence recognising life as but a dream.

Premium MemberConsciousness correction

The roots of conditioning go in deep,
letting soul take not a consciousness leap,
so becoming slow and slower yet still,
this is the way to God we bend our will.

Refinement is an arduous process
but over time bliss mists do make ingress,
so though we oscillate, thoughts are distilled
and in time darkness is with God’s light filled.

Earth life is a school and we’re here to learn,
facing life’s trials and willingly burn,
for which steadfast must remain our resolve,
that breath by breath we may here now evolve.

Continuous consciousness correction 
is the preferred path to reach perfection.

Inspirational Music

Shriek permeates bones break
Zigzwang with miasma tang
No one is saying anything 
I’m going insane
Crossroads to make a deal
Instead his scalp I peel
Elitist swine high on the mantle
Pleas to stop as I disassemble 

Cry wolf flock the sheep
Alabaster hooves on concrete
How do you even sleep?
On a conveyor belt don’t you see
Your packages of maggot meat
You hesitate then bite down and eat
Cannibalistically sickening 
Pinky up with red whine to drink

It's important to me
Not important to you
What does everyone do

Another ventriloquist
Another jejune seepage
Another fist up anus
Another one to work your lips

Grrraaaaaaaaahhhhh

Slaves and marionettes 
Stand up your the circus
Clowns in cars trying to fit
Rushing to drop knee, oscillate and submit
You don’t know what darkness truly is
Grotesque being where I sit
Trying to circumvent eager dummies kismet
By all means let me know 
What your master says dear little puppets
In the comments, middle fingers both flip
Hack and spit

Premium MemberOur dilemma

we signed up for earth life
with memory erased
immersed in trance
to grow in love and wisdom
learning breath by breath by touch
but ego hijacked stuporous awareness 
whence we deludedly believed we are form
and so nurtured lust and greed mirrored by fear
even though deep down we did recognise
that organic form is doomed to die
and is therefore definitely unreal
still we languished in denial 
fearful to relinquish imagined control
continuing to oscillate between opposites
trauma bonding with ego and nurturing suffering

we found peace in thought rested silence
and in moments when love became manifest
for in these God gifted immersions ego receded 
and therefore the path to freedom was self-evident
but to extinguish identity whilst heart was beating
it was too much of an ask for us to consider 
even though scriptures validated truth
we remained captive to thought
alive as a dead man walking
