Prior to Intent
From darkened forms of little thought a fog of unknown dreams desire a feeling A fleeting thought begins to focus a dream, a plan, a scheme unfolds Did the subconscious create intent Or did past knowledge weave a dream Did experience create intent Or did the mind's unknowing dream explode ...

Line of inquiry: "hearts set up a vibration echoing as wordless intent mind translates in symbols flight of our soul’s ascent is intent then a stirring of soul with God conferring" My one heart as a part of humanity's great heart, spiritually holds the indwelling God presence as sought. A human hold shiftily slants and grows knots tied fraught with false-held, gloomy feels that...

Was a warm glowing field. I remembered it by scent. Holographic thoughts formed Like liquid beneath me, and I drifted Through a blizzard of desires, Impulses, and intuitions. I was a knave, naive every time. I sat there and got dizzy over Ways to make spinach So my kids would one day eat it....

Prior to Intent
her presence at first sight an illumination something I didn’t understand she stirred imagination a current ran through my body and whatever stirred was beyond comprehension an angel, perhaps I watched as she checked into my life and disappeared without a word but she lingered in my mind a constant stirring until the next time when I said hello ...

Tremor
Before thought–the heart: a struck bell's hum, in the chest's dark chapel. No word. Only thrum that echoes the void where meaningwill climb. Is this the soul's raw conference? A draft. of prayer–unwritten–lifting like a raft on some deep tide. Not speech. Not yet. But chime of nerve and grace. Mind fumbles, blind, to trace this pulse–intent–before it wears...

Prior to Ink
Pen prepares its blood with quiet intent, Flowing with words that embrace no cliche; Its spirit starts to pump the heart's content, Beginning with inner insights to say. The ink's voice shouts with neither sound nor noise, Creating calmness inside the bold mind; The soul's silent scream still seems its best choice, For the right meanings hiding there to find. Shrouded...

Selfish aims in kindness-guise… I dare to confront As my soul welcomes challenges with hope Triumphantly while thankful spirit does cope Surmounting trials of grievous affront. Intents midst secret deals… I strive to check As my heart submits to divine truth’s worth Exposing transgressions against fake mirth Repenting for pardon that conquers wreck. Carnal goals with their deceit… I ought to face As...

Prior to the Afterlife
The ceiling sparkled; I saw the big dipper, then the little one. The painters needed a bigger tip for their creative execution. Without a warning to prepare, a requiem played. The symphony corned all aspects of a so-called classic; muffled screams, vulgar tongues and your tears – Silence doesn’t come fast and I begged for forgiveness and...
