Mushroom Perspectives

I'm a caterpillar on a snail-back ride.
I've approached mushrooms from every side.
From every angle, they're just the same. 
It's radial symmetry (in a name).
The only good sides a mushroom's got 'em
is the top and also the bottom.

benign bliss burn

feel the compelling pull
of divine bliss magnetism 
toroidal effervescence radial
surging in all directions at once 
arising from a centreless fulcrum 
fixating thus our focus within
that as we are transformed 
clear light in time dawns

Mother

  welcome this heart,

    congenitally, sickeningly loathed

   not even clothed, leave her threshold.


brought into the world, a radial embrace 

   cradled in the rain, slapped across the face.


scapegoat of the mother, never far from the tree

    saddled in pain, crawling formlessly.



carry this apple, take a crisp bite

  sour and cold, not even ripe.


now welcome this heart, 

   bitter and mindless,

feed on the fright



frigid as marble , scorched as a star

    feed him dirt, never far, never far



arachnid fangs descend, venomous reign

    eat your own infant, drown in the rain;


then do it again, 

                  again, 

                      and again.

Zen Mode

the central vein pulsates
epicentre everywhere 
radial pull magnetic
fixates attention 
in its radiance
enlivening form
in a play enigmatic 
known to us and us alone

the only clue offered by us
is when we clench eyes
as a reflex reaction 
to rumbling bliss thunder
reverberating endlessly within

what matters labels now
we are and feel complete

Minaret of You

For the umpteenth time, 
the sun flares its solaris routines.

Painting the stroke of a wolf's tail,
as a sign of dawn.

Its color rises straight up, 
as if tickling the sky.

Mouthpieces of minaret sound faintly, 
racing with the air swirling.

Sometimes major, sometimes minor,
beautiful as if the waves are rocking.

Turning a quarter radial, 
He swept across the narrow space, 
open his pupils to get an aperture,
dimly seeing her twinkling eyes.

How demons turned into his devils.
Undesignated seventh heaven.

I'm next to you, 
He said.

I am your face and your eyes, 
she answered.

Even though your nose was hit with a sword?

The Wrist

The Wrist

Bears the watch marking time
And moments sublime

Shakes the hand to impress
And flaunt success

Deftly bends to play the notes of staccato
And trills of vibrato

Takes the pain
As drugs enter the vein

Radial pulse strong and steady
Then later thready

The rhythm of life eventually ceasing
Unleashing, cut like a knife

Mind Merely Knows

Mind merely knows, whilst our heart glows
One with the universe
In stillness slow, our soul mellows
Singing the divine verse

Single eye spherical 
By touch vibrational
Feels bliss pulse radial

Exit shallows
Mind merely knows

Prejudice Vs Discernment

Prejudice dark, discernment light
So let us not mix up the two
Distinguish between black and white
Whilst we let not toxic fumes spew

The jaundiced eye is judgmental 
Prejudice dark, discernment light
Let then our love be radial
Yet recognising wrong from right

Never disembark from loves flight
Vibrant thus, in stillness sedate 
Prejudice dark, discernment light
Wary of thoughts that agitate

Heart aglow, fused with mind mellow
Hold still attention, with clear sight
Go with the flow, yet always know 
Prejudice dark, discernment light

Flowing Rapture

Gods miracle, love unconditional 
Renews each moment, it’s life pulse potent
Embrace joyful, radiance radial
Soul luminescent, blissful heart content

Softened attention, in meditation 
Gently imbibes joy we cannot describe 
Hearts elation in continuation 
Does rapidly rise, to egos surprise

Dance of innocence, in sync with conscience 
Flows like the breeze, in embrace and release
Dalliance in divine entwined parlance 
Climax stretched bliss sneeze, ours, as we unfreeze

Is-Ness of Being-Ness

Slipping in, within, into deep silence
We sense divine currents, in playful dance
Accompanied by inner sound current
Thunderous bliss in our heart resident
Our form thus luminous, in permanence 

Time stretched stillness, with bliss in renewal
In being, becoming Gods miracle
Relinquishing feeble ego doership
Vibrations of love self-anointed flagship
Outpouring compassion, rays radial

All doings are done, though we do nothing
The dream unfolds, our role is witnessing 
The false falls away, as we vaporise
Childlike innocence embracing surprise 
Divine entwined, with love resonating 

In vibrant emptiness, feeling complete
Imbibing elixir of nectar sweet
Dweller of the void, one with universe
Singing the love songs melodious verse 
Stillness continuum, with bliss replete

The Bliss Current

Our softened attention in quietude
Poised thus in sedentary calm tranquil
Imbibes bliss throb inpourings radial
Trusting magnetism rise with fortitude
This play of delight, in our solitude
Embraced as benign divine miracle

Oh hermit! Standing still, keep heart open
Simply rest ego borne thoughts arising
In childlike trust, with the current flowing
With gratitude, inhale the love potion
As petal by petal, we awaken
Rapture continuum scintillating 

Moment to moment, each pulse beauteous
Bliss renewal within continuous

Anahata

It may now be affirmed
With certainty confirmed
That the Anahata spacial
Attribute outpouring radial
Is the dimensionless centre
Emptiness where bliss enters
To satisfy hearts inner yearning
Self with Self in purity connecting 
Transmuting all the lower vibrations
Within pure essence of blissful elation
Throbbing thus in an unending continuum
Each node within becoming a new sensorium

Octaves of Love

Love
graded,
joy bubbling,
then transiting,
on heart opening,
to empathy spacial;
it’s outpouring radial.
In time we get to compassion;
warmth of love steadily outpouring,
with vibrant bliss within thus pulsating.

Over time, something within falls away.
Inner silence becomes our mainstay.
Hollowed form pure and pristine,
exists to live the love dream,
as joy within does stream,
an invite to merge
in the bliss surge,
radiant,
aglow,
here.

Let Us Simplify

The way is simple
Resting thoughts nimble
With love throb nestle
Feel Gods miracle
Pure love spherical 

The world within
Bliss ignition 
Simply is-ness
Of being-ness

Joy tranquil 
Love spacial
Radial
